Istanbul, City of the Fearless
Based on extensive field research in Turkey, Istanbul, City of the Fearless explores social movements and the broader practices of civil society in Istanbul in the critical years before and after the 1980 military coup, the defining event in the neoliberal reengineering of the city. Bringing together developments in anthropology, urban studies, cultural geography, and social theory, Christopher Houston offers new insights into the meaning and study of urban violence, military rule, activism and spatial tactics, relations between political factions and ideologies, and political memory and commemoration. This book is both a social history and an anthropological study, investigating how activist practices and the coup not only contributed to the globalization of Istanbul beginning in the 1980s but also exerted their force and influence into the future.
Self-Alteration
Many of us feel a pressing desire to be different—to be other than who we are. Self-conscious, we anxiously perceive our shortcomings or insufficiencies, wondering why we are how we are and whether we might be different. Often, we wish to alter ourselves, to change our relationships, and to transform the person we are in those relationships. Not only a philosophical question about how other people change, self-alteration is also a practical care—can I change, and how? Self-Alteration: How People Change Themselves across Cultures explores and analyzes these apparently universal hopes and their related existential dilemmas. The essays here come at the subject of the self and its becoming t...
Migration, Refugees and Human Security in the Mediterranean and MENA
This book focuses on the Mediterranean/MENA migration crisis and explores the human security implications for migrants and refugees in this troubled region. Since the Arab uprisings of 2010/2011, the Middle East and North Africa region has experienced major political transformations and called into question the legitimacy of states in the region. Displaced populations continue to suffer due to the major conflicts in Syria, Iraq and elsewhere, causing fragmentation and dis-integration of communities. Contributors to this volume analyze how and why this crisis differs significantly from previous migration/refugee flows in the region, explain the historical and political antecedents of this crisis which have played a part in its shaping, and explore the relationship between human security and the protection of vulnerable individuals and groups.

1970'lerde Türkiye Solu
Türkiye solunun en kitlesel olduğu dönem 1970’lerdir. Bugün dahi solun farklı renklerinden siyasi hareketlerin, o dönemdeki öncül örgütlerine ve o örgütlerin kitleselliğine referansla sergiledikleri özgüven, bu tespiti hâlâ geçerli kılmaktadır. Askerî darbeye kadar varlığını ve kitleselliğini muhafaza eden sol parti, örgüt ve hareketlerin, darbeyle beraber çekildikleri mevziler ise, 1970’lerle kıyaslandığında oldukça sathi bir siyasal etkiye işaret eder. 1970’lerde Türkiye Solu, solun en canlı yıllarının ve bu “cana gelişin” tarihini anlatıyor. 1971 darbesiyle sona eren THKO, THKP-C ve TİKKO-TKP/(ML) hareketlerinin mirasçısı olan örgüt ve hareketlerle, yeni kurulan siyasi partilerin amaçlarını, kuruluş ve örgütleniş faaliyetlerini, kitlesel güçlerini, ideolojik farklarını etraflı bir şekilde aktarırken, dönemin kapsamlı bir panoramasını da çiziyor. Vehbi Ersan, bu kitapta ele aldığı parti, örgüt ve hareketlerin 1980 sonrası yaşadıkları değişim, dönüşüm ve yeniden partileşme süreçlerine de değinerek, Türkiye’de solun tarihinin daha geniş bir perspektiften ele alınmasını sağlıyor.
