Tutum ve davranışların, değerlerin, kanaatlerin ve sonuç olarak kamuoyunun nasıl oluştuğu konusu, psikolojiden sosyolojiye, siyaset biliminden pazarlamaya, ekonomiden iletişime, sosyal bilim incelemelerinin temel ilgi alanını oluşturmuştur. Demokratik rejimlerde, kamuoyunun doğru bilgiye erişebilmesi, doğru bilgiyi analiz edip geleceğe dair öngörülerde bulunabilmek için sağlam bir mantıksal ve rasyonel düşünce yapısına sahip olması, hayati önem arz eder. Zira yanlış bilinç, yanlış siyasal davranışa, yanlış siyasal davranış ise, yanlış bir siyasal iktidara yol açar. Yanlış bilinç, yanlış tüketim alışkanlıkları, yanlış sosyal davranış, yanlış insan demektir. Demokratik olmayan rejimlerde ise, güdümlü medya, güdümlü eğitim sistemiyle birlikte, kamuoyunun bizatihi yanlış bilinç ürünü olması için el ele verebilirler. Suskunluk sarmalı, gerçek bilginin ortaya çıkıp yayılmasını engellerken, millet, fakru zaruret içinde harap ve bitap olabilir. Bu itibarla, Medya Okuryazarlığı konusu, sağlıklı ve mutlu toplum için zaruridir.
Joan Robinson: Writings on Economics
Joan Robinson was one of the most prominent economists of the century. She made fundamental contributions to many different areas of economic thought. She studied economics at Girton College Cambridge, graduating in 1925. During the 1930's she published three books and participated in Keynes 'Circus'. Her early contributions to economics were extensions of neo-classical theory, and in 1933 she introduced the theory of imperfect competition. She became an ardent follower of Keynes and produced expositions of his theory. She was one of the first economists to take Marx seriously as an economist. She became Reader in Economics at Cambridge in 1956, and in the same year she published The Accumulation of Capital - in which she began to extend Keynes theory, in particular to take into consideration long-run issues of growth and capital accumulation. Her work on growth theory in 1962, alongside Nicholas Kaldor, led to them developing the Cambridge Growth Theory. She became the first ever female Fellow of Kings College, Cambridge in 1979. This collection of her writings is an excellent testament to the depth and breadth of the impact she had on economic theory as a whole.
Tortured Confessions
The role of torture in recent Iranian politics is the subject of Ervand Abrahamian's important and disturbing book. Although Iran officially banned torture in the early twentieth century, Abrahamian provides documentation of its use under the Shahs and of the widespread utilization of torture and public confession under the Islamic Republican governments. His study is based on an extensive body of material, including Amnesty International reports, prison literature, and victims' accounts that together give the book a chilling immediacy. According to human rights organizations, Iran has been at the forefront of countries using systematic physical torture in recent years, especially for politi...
The Life and Times of the Shah
This epic biography, a gripping insider's account, is a long-overdue chronicle of the life and times of Mohammad Reza Shah, who ruled from 1941 to 1979 as the last Iranian monarch. Gholam Reza Afkhami uses his unparalleled access to a large number of individuals—including high-ranking figures in the shah's regime, members of his family, and members of the opposition—to depict the unfolding of the shah's life against the forces and events that shaped the development of modern Iran. The first major biography of the Shah in twenty-five years, this richly detailed account provides a radically new perspective on key events in Iranian history, including the 1979 revolution, U.S.-Iran relations, and Iran's nuclear program. It also sheds new light on what now drives political and cultural currents in a country at the heart of today's most perplexing geopolitical dilemmas.
Iran Between Two Revolutions
Emphasizing the interaction between political organizations and social forces, Ervand Abrahamian discusses Iranian society and politics during the period between the Constitutional Revolution of 1905-1909 and the Islamic Revolution of 1977-1979. Presented here is a study of the emergence of horizontal divisions, or socio-economic classes, in a country with strong vertical divisions based on ethnicity, religious ideology, and regional particularism. Professor Abrahamian focuses on the class and ethnic roots of the major radical movements in the modem era, particularly the constitutional movement of the 1900s, the communist Tudeh party of the 1940s, the nationalist struggle of the early 1950s,...
Defying the Iranian Revolution
The realities of Iranian life are far more harrowing than most people imagine from the outside. Ganji paints a portrait of duplicitous clerics arbitrarily arresting, torturing, mutilating, and executing citizens, all in the name of Islamic Justice. A system of apartheid has been instituted against women. While 60% of the population lives below the poverty line, the mullah regime has hoarded billions of dollars in accounts and properties in Europe, Canada, and Japan. Roughly 70% of the population is under 30 years of age and opposes the regime. In the year of 2001 alone, 220,000 people—mostly educated youth—left the country in search of better lives. Ganji stresses that the best defense a...
