Human Rights in a Changing World
The book aims at presenting an updated version of the basic and general human rights debates. While it is frequently suggested that Human Rights are universal and indivisible, it is an undeniable fact that this is far from being true. And if there was ever any justification for talking about an ending to history, that narrative has definitely lost all justification in the light of recent developments. In fact, we are now witnessing a new harsh round of global system competition, often at the edge of a global hot war, now not anymore in a bipolar world but in a multipolar setting.The book contributions include reflections on history and theory, the reinterpretation of rights in different national contexts and/or in relation to specific groups (e.g. women) and areas (e.g. digitization).The book is meant to be a food for thought, at the end arguing in favour of the need to redefine Human Rights, reflecting the changes since the inauguration of the UDHR.
Migration - global processes caught in national answers
The volume brings together contributions that reflect on issues about migration in terms of the countries of immigration: ways of “reception“. It is underlined in all contributions that effective humanitarian legislation can only be implemented together with a deep understanding of the problems faced by refugees/asylum seekers and the social relations that determine their position in society.

Digitisation and Precarisation
Currently it is fashionable to talk about digitisation, robotisation, industry 4.0, but also about the gig economy, the Millenials, precarisation and the like. However, the relevant issues are too often taken in isolation, referring to an extrapolation of overcome structures. The present collection aims on moving further by qualifying some aspects, and also by approaching the topic from distinct perspectives in order to arrive at an assessment of emerging changes of the socio-economic formation. Content Digitisation and Precarisation – Redefining Work and Redefining Society · Economy of Difference and Social Differentiation. Precarity – searching for a new interpretative paradigm · Soc...
The Liberalisation of the Islamists in Turkey During 1990’s: The Debates Around the Medina Document and Civil Society Project
Dr. Unal Giindoan The Liberalisation of the Islamists in Turkey During 1990's: The Debates Around the Medina Document and Civil Society Project This book takes snapshots from the venture of the Islamic Movement during second half of the 1990's in Turkey. It was the Civil Society Project, as proposed by Ali Bulac a prominent intellectual, which claimed to establish philosophical basis for a political and social restructuring of Turkey depending upon the basic premises of the Medina Document, which was signed among Muslims, Jews and Pagans of Medina City just after the Prophet Muhammed's migration in 622. The Project was a break from the tradi-tional understanding of Islamic politics both in Turkey and in the Muslim world. It was because of its focus on pluralism, multi-culturalism, democracy, human rights and many other liberal assumptions. This was a turning point in Turkish politics since the discussions created a liberal atmosphere among Islamist, leftist and rightists which at the end resulted in the mass acceptance of Islamic political parties by the voters since midst 1990's. The rise of first Refah Party and then AK Party owe much to this new understanding.
Iraqi Refugees in the United States
In the literature on forced migration, little is known about the experiences of Iraqi refugees resettled in the United States through the US Refugee Admissions, Reception and Placement Program. As part of its longstanding refugee resettlement policy, the United States has accepted and provided safe haven to thousands of refugees. Focusing primarily on the situation of Iraqis resettled in Arizona since the 1990s, this research uses interview findings and first-hand data to examine various aspects of their post-resettlement experiences through a meta-theoretical approach that includes aspects of humanitarian governance, adaptation, acculturation and integration. Building on this theoretical un...
The Miracle Years
Stereotypical descriptions showcase West Germany as an "economic miracle" or cast it in the narrow terms of Cold War politics. Such depictions neglect how material hardship preceded success and how a fascist past and communist sibling complicated the country's image as a bastion of democracy. Even more disappointing, they brush over a rich and variegated cultural history. That history is told here by leading scholars of German history, literature, and film in what is destined to become the volume on postwar West German culture and society. In it, we read about the lives of real people--from German children fathered by black Occupation soldiers to communist activists, from surviving Jews to T...
Turkey, Migration and the EU
In the context of Turkey's accession to the EU, the issue of potential migration from Turkey and its impact upon European labor markets became one of the concerns of the EU, considering Turkey's growing population and young labor force. In 2011, half a century after the bi-lateral agreement between Turkey and Germany on labor recruitment in 1961, migration plays a key role in relations of Turkey with the EU and will even increase its significance - not necessarily for the next fifty years but certainly for the next decade. This book touches upon various aspects of the ongoing debate about the effects of Turkey's accession to the EU upon the migration flows and sheds light on various dimensions of current panorama, addresses policy implications as well as future challenges and opportunities.

Göç bibliyografyası: Göç konusunda başvurulabilecek kaynaklar ve bu kaynaklara ilişkin genel bir değerlendirme (I. Tezler)
Günümüzde dünya nüfusunun büyük çoğunluğu doğduğu ülkede yaşamakla birlikte, yaşamlarının bir bölümünü çalışmak, eğitim görmek ve hatta emekliliğini geçirmek için farklı bir ülkeye yerleşenlerin sayısı hızla artmaktadır. Birleşmiş Milletler Uluslararası Göç Verileri’ne göre uluslararası göçmenlerin sayısı 2000 yılından bu yana %49’luk artışla 258 milyona yükselmiştir. Bu durum, üç büyük kıtanın kesişim noktasında yer alan ülkemiz için günümüzde de güncelliğini koruyan ve çözülmesi gereken öncelikli sorunların başında gelmektedir. Göç verileri incelendiğinde ülkemizin tarih boyunca kitlesel göç akımlarının...
