Türkiye'de Sınıf Mücadeleleri

Kemalizmin günümüz Türkiye’sine devrettiÄŸi resmî tarih, bugün hem burjuva dünyasında hem de solda yaygın biçimde sorgulanıyor. Türkiye tarihinin, resmî ideolojinin taÅŸlaÅŸmış kalıplarının kırılması temelinde yeniden ve özgürce deÄŸerlendirilmesi tartışma gündeminin yakıcı maddelerinden birini oluÅŸturuyor. Sorun, bu yeniden deÄŸerlendirmenin hangi temellerde yapılacağı. Resmî ideolojinin bugün solda yaygın kabul gören eleÅŸtirisi liberal burjuva teorisinin kategorilerini temel alıyor. Sungur Savran, bu eleÅŸtirinin 20. yüzyıl boyunca yaÅŸanan toplumsal ve politik mücadelelerin gerçek doÄŸasının kavranması bakımından, resmî ideoloji kadar yanÄ...

In the Tracks of Marx’s Capital

This book provides an accessible introduction to Marx’s seminal work Capital and explores the core ideas of Marxian political economy relevant for modern day economies. The first part gives an overview of Capital based on the authors’ original thinking in the methodology of Capital. The second part discusses the application of these ideas to some understudied questions of measuring profit on alienation, the rate of exploitation, the reconstruction of input-output tables, and the role of the welfare state and social wage. The third part sets forth new research in Marxian analysis in the 21st century, facing the challenges brought about by digital labor and the deep crisis of the global economy. The last part discusses the Marxism/Neo-Ricardianism controversy.

Policing and Prisons in the Middle East

The emergence of the modern Middle East has been accompanied by a concentration of coercive power in the state. Although the region has encompassed numerous Mukhabarat (secret police) states, extensive policing and carceral regimes, and widespread use of torture and spectacular punishments, and although its prisons and policing practices are regularly condemned by human rights organisations, surprisingly few analyses explore the emergence of these grim institutions. This volume is the first to examine systematically practices of policing and incarceration in the modern Middle East, the emergence of modern policing and prisons and their continued predominance. It offers a useful lens through which the complexity of state power and the contours of popular contentious politics can be read.

Authoritarianism and Resistance in Turkey

  • Publisher: Springer

This book offers an in-depth overview of Turkish history and politics essential for understanding contemporary Turkey. It presents an analysis on a number of key issues from gender inequality to Islamism to urban regeneration. Based on interviews with leading intellectuals and academics from Turkey, the book’s theme follows the dramatic transformations that have occurred from the 1980 military coup to the coup attempt of 2016 and its aftermath. It further draws attention to the global flows of capital, goods, ideas, and technologies that continue to influence both mainstream and dissident politics. By doing so, the book tries to unsettle the assumption that Erdoğan and his Islamic ideology are the sole actors in contemporary Turkey. This book provides unusual insight into the Turkish society bringing various topics together, and increases the dialogue for people interested in democratic struggles in 21st century under neoliberal authoritarian regimes in general.

Upon the tenth anniversary of the Gezi protests, the book takes upon the task of critically re-examining the social uprising of June 2013 in Turkey by compensating for blind spots in the academic corpus hitherto generated. This volume braves into subjects largely neglected by the extant scholarship, in particular, the organizational aspects of the Gezi upheaval, which bear heavily on the course of social and political affairs that has since taken dramatic turns. By delving into the question of political practice, whether on the part of the state, the government or the opposition, the book re-evaluates how the emergent collective momentum was managed by the contesting parties. In other words, the volume concentrates on the multifaceted political organizing of social forces in conflict both during and in the aftermath of the protests. Contributors are: Athina Arampatzi, Gökhan Atılgan, Özgür Balkılıç, Selin Dingiloğlu, Antoine Dolcerocca, Çağlar Dölek, Kürşad Ertuğrul, Ufuk Gürbüzdal, Ezgi Kaya Hayatsever, Eren Karaca, Sebla Ayşe Kazancı, Arca Özçoban, Ezgi Pınar, Sungur Savran, Ozan Siso, Aylin Topal, Fatih Yaşlı and Adem Yeşilyurt.

In Class, Capital, State, and Late Development: The Political Economy of Military Interventions in Turkey, Gönenç Uysal discusses state-military-society relations in Turkey from the late Ottoman era to today by exploring state-class-capital relations under the dynamics of uneven development. Uysal approaches Turkey as a late-developing social formation characterised by unevenness and dependency, arising from the contradictions of capitalist relations of production and integration with the world capitalist system. By drawing upon historical materialism/Marxism, Uysal offers a critical/radical understanding of (re)organisation of the state and military interventions in politics in peripheries of global capitalism.

Marksistler Cilt: 2

21. yüzyıl başında çoğu insan sosyalizmin denendiğini ve işe yaramadığının görüldüğünü, Marksizmin yanlışlandığını düşünüyor. Sungur Savran, Marksistler kitabında aksini savunuyor. 20. yüzyıl sosyalizm deneyiminin, tam tersine, Marksizmi doğruladığını ileri sürüyor. Çöküşün Marksist teorinin ve programın bir aşamada terk edilmesi dolayısıyla gerçekleştiğini vurguluyor. Yazar, birinci ciltte Marx ile Engels’in Avrupa çapında yaşanan 1848 devrimlerinden başlayarak, Birinci Enternasyonal’den geçerek, ta 1889’da İkinci Enternasyonal’in Marksist bir örgüt olarak oluşumuna kadar ulaşan pratik mücadelesinin nasıl teori ve program...
