Die kurdische Frage in der Türkei
Der Konflikt zwischen der Türkei und der kurdischen Bevölkerung hat eine lange und verwobene Geschichte. Um die gegenwärtigen Spannungen und die Konsequenzen der staatlichen Politik verstehen zu können, ist ein Blick in die Vergangenheit unumgänglich. Ismail Küpeli nimmt sich dieses Komplexes an und analysiert vor dem Hintergrund der historischen Entwicklungen die autoritäre und gewaltsame Durchsetzung von Nationalstaatlichkeit in der Türkei. Auf dieser Grundlage formuliert er darüber hinaus Empfehlungen für eine politische Bildung, die einen Beitrag zur Anerkennung von Pluralität und Diversität sowie zu einem gesellschaftlichen Friedensprozess liefern kann.

Memes to Movements
A global exploration of internet memes as agents of pop culture, politics, protest, and propaganda on- and offline, and how they will save or destroy us all. Memes are the street art of the social web. Using social media–driven movements as her guide, technologist and digital media scholar An Xiao Mina unpacks the mechanics of memes and how they operate to reinforce, amplify, and shape today’s politics. She finds that the “silly” stuff of meme culture—the photo remixes, the selfies, the YouTube songs, and the pun-tastic hashtags—are fundamentally intertwined with how we find and affirm one another, direct attention to human rights and social justice issues, build narratives, and ...
Inhabiting the Impossible
This first-of-its-kind book brings together writing by artists and scholars to survey the lively field of Puerto Rican experimental dance across four decades. Originally published as Habitar lo Imposible, the translation in English features essays, artist statements, and interviews plus more than 100 photos of productions, programs, posters, and scores. Throughout, Inhabiting the Impossible provides fresh, invaluable perspectives on experimentation in dance as a sustained practice that has from the start deeply engaged issues of race, gender, sexuality, and politics. The book is also enhanced by a bibliographic section with detailed resources for further study.
Back to the ‘30s?
The essays in this volume address the question: what does it mean to understand the contemporary moment in light of the 1930s? In the aftermath of the worst economic crisis since the Great Depression, and facing a dramatic rise of right wing, authoritarian politics across the globe, the events of the 1930s have acquired a renewed relevance. Contributions from a diverse, interdisciplinary group of scholars address the relationship between these historical moments in various geographical contexts, from Asia-Pacific to Europe to the Americas, while probing an array of thematic questions—the meaning of populism and fascism, the contradictions of constitutional liberalism and “militant democracy,” long cycles and crisis tendencies in capitalism, the gendering and racialization of right wing movements, and the cultural and class politics of emancipatory struggles. Uncovering continuity as well as change and repetition in the midst of transition, Back to the 30s? enriches our ability to use the past to evaluate the challenges, dangers, and promises of the present.
Orthodox Mercantilism
This book demonstrates how the political economy of mercantilism was not simply a Western invention by various cities and kingdoms during the Renaissance, but was the natural by-product of perpetually limited growth rates and rulers’ relentless pursuits of bullion. It contributes to discussions of the economic history surrounding the so-called “Great Divergence” between East and West, which would consequently lend context and credence to differences of economic thought in the world today. Additionally, it seeks to explain present economic thought as tacitly derived from implicit antique paradigms. This book advances fields of research from numismatics and sigillography to historical ma...
GELECEK İÇİN
Gelecek İçin’le ilgili iki yorum: “1954’te Bereketli Topraklar Üzerinde’yi, 1955’te İnce Me-med’i çıkar çıkmaz okuduğumda duyduğum doygunluğu, heyecanı o günlerden beri pek az yeni romanda duydum. O günlerden bu güne o kadar romandan, o kadar romancıdan sonra yeni bir roman bir okuyucuya aynı doygunluk duygusunu, aynı coşkuyu duyurabiliyorsa bunun başka bir anlamı olmalı. Gelecek İçin’i bir solukta okuyup bitirdikten sonra, gözler önüne serilen gerçeklerin yoğunluğu altında ezilir gibi olduğumu hissettim. Gözlemlerin keskinliği şaşırttı beni. Roman bitmemişti son sayfada, yaşamın kendisi gibi sürüyordu. Üç yüz yetmiş bir sayfanın ...
Die Kurden
Wer weiß um den Krieg, den die Regierung in Ankara seit 2015 gegen die Kurden führt? Wer erinnert sich an die Repressionen in den 1990ern? Hierzulande kennt man allenfalls die PKK und fragt sich vielleicht verwundert, warum immer noch Tausende mit den Farben und Symbolen dieser "Terrororganisation" in ganz Europa auf die Straßen gehen. Schamberger und Meyen zeigen, dass die Verfolgung der Kurden in der Gründungsgeschichte der Türkei wurzelt und dass der eigentliche Putsch dort schon 2015 stattfand - ein ziviler Putsch durch die AKP. Doch der Westen will sein Bündnis mit dem Erdogan-Regime nicht gefährden und lässt deshalb ein 25-Millionen-Volk im Stich.
100 Years of Modern Territorial Autonomy - Autonomy around the World
An unclouded look at territorial autonomy back and forward, 100 years after the establishment of the first "modern" territorial autonomy in a democratic state: the Åland Islands in Finland in 1921/22. Where has autonomy been successful to ensure minority protection and self-government, where has it failed, where is it in crisis, where is it aspired to? In which cases would autonomy settle open conflicts between states and regional communities, and in which cases of national emancipation is autonomy no longer sufficient? In 2021, after 100 years of experience with territorial autonomy in all parts of the world, this concept for solving sub-state conflicts is still underestimated. Background ...
The Next Great Migration
We are surrounded by stories of people on the move. Wild species, too, are escaping warming seas and desiccated lands in a mass exodus. Politicians and the media present this upheaval of migration patterns as unprecedented, blaming it for the spread of disease and conflict, and spreading anxiety across the world as a result. But the science and history of migration in animals, plants, and humans tell a different story. Far from being a disruptive behaviour, migration is an ancient and lifesaving response to environmental change, a biological imperative as necessary as breathing.
