    Fahreddin Altay (1880-1974) : militarizmin gölgesinde

    No full text
    Fahreddin Altay is one of the representatives of the Ottoman generation born in the 1880s. He grew up in an environment in which wars were becoming more destructive, complicated and organized. He became part of the high ranking military elite, and then became a staff officer and commander in wars that lasted almost ten years. Then, as one of the high ranking representatives of the army; he carried out different duties and became a deputy in the republican period. The main aim of this thesis is to merge a multidimensional phenomenon, reflecting each field of life differently, militarization of society with a genre of historiography that is biography, including various fields of life, thus putting an alternative interpretation on the period, transition from the Ottoman Empire to the Republic of Turkey. While the different reflections of the phenomenon, militarization of society made his life a typical example of it, at the same time, in such an ordinary life, his perception of the environment, his reactions to events and the level of his influence on them made his world virtually unique. This thesis, the only biography in this field to be based on a concept, different from the various books written by focusing on it, rather than the events, is a contribution to the new historiography bringing back the agent by measuring the influence of it on a person in various fields and specific events. Combining human perception with unique human experience, his life provides very different from the others so often narrated a portrait of a military officer in the period.Abstract ....................................................................................................................... iv Öz ................................................................................................................................. v Acknowledgments ....................................................................................................... vi Table of Contents ........................................................................................................vii List of Figures ...............................................................................................................xi List of Tables ................................................................................................................ xii List of Maps ................................................................................................................ xiii CHAPTERS 1.

    Türk dış politikasında İslam ve sekülerizm (1919-1938)

    No full text
    This study examines the impact of Islam and secularism on Mustafa Kemal’s foreign policy and relations with the Muslim world, focusing specifically on Middle Eastern countries during 1919-1938. By using Hurd’s constructivist approach to international relations, I argue that secular ideology in internal politics was a significant parameter in Turkish foreign policy making during this twenty-year period. Also, I examine Turkish Foreign Policy (TFP) with Ardıç’s concepts of accommodation and control/domination at the discursive and policy levels, by dividing the Mustafa Kemal era into three periods: Islamization (1919-1924), with particular emphasis on the Caliphate’s role in TFP; secularization (1924-29), in parallel with the rising secularism in domestic politics; and securitization (1929-38), with the changing dynamics of TFP based on security concerns. I demonstrate that secularism did not entirely determine Mustafa Kemal’s foreign policy continuously from 1919 to 1938, and that secular politics usually accommodated Islam in its application and rhetoric rather than always excluding and conflicting with religion. While Mustafa Kemal pursued a foreign policy in which Islam was used effectively as a discourse between 1919 and 1924 in order to ensure domestic and international political legitimacy, secular changes in TFP during the period of 1924-29 were the product of secular ideological transformations in domestic politics. Finally, due to the security priorities in the regional and global politics, Turkey could not continue to transmit its strict internal ideological transformation in its foreign policy between 1929-1938 – hence securitization. While investigating transformations of TFP through the religious and secular discourses of Mustafa Kemal as the primary decision maker of the new state, I point out the contradictions in both discourses and practices from the 1920s to 1930s.Abstract ........................................................................................................................ iv Öz ................................................................................................................................. vi Acknowledgements .................................................................................................... viii Table of Contents ......................................................................................................... ix CHAPTERS 1.

    Audit duty of administration on civil air operators

    No full text
    Civil air transportation, which is one of the fastest carriage system in the globalizing world, can be considered as one of the most frequently used cargo and passenger transport activities. Safety of flights with complex aircrafts is vital, especially when it comes to passenger carriage. In order to ensure safety in this field which consists risks, air operators must act in accordance with national and international legislations. It is known that the concept of security is closely related to the concept of public order in terms of Turkish administrative law. For this reason, it can be easily said that the audit activities carried out by the administration on the air operators are aimed at achieving the purpose of public safety. In brief, this thesis will cover duty of audit on air transport operators carried out by the administration.Öz.… ............................................................................................................................. iv Abstract ........................................................................................................................ v İthaf………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………..vi Teşekkür ..................................................................................................................... vii İçindekiler .................................................................................................................. viii Kısaltmalar Listesi ........................................................................................................ xi BÖLÜMLER GİRİŞ ............................................................................................................................. 1 1.

    The sphere of consensus in a polarized media system: The case of Turkey during the catastrophic coup attempt

    Full text link
    How does a highly polarized media system respond to a catastrophic event? The July 2016 coup attempt in Turkey provides fertile ground to examine how a catastrophic event has shaped the editorial policies of news media outlets in a highly polarized media system. This article hypothesizes that, mainly due to the peculiarities of the Turkish media system, even at the time of a catastrophic event, the framing strategies of media outlets converge only to a limited degree on a sphere of consensus. Adopting a content analysis methodology, we analyze the framing strategies of four national newspapers affiliated with specific sociopolitical camps (the pro-government Sabah, the moderate Hürriyet, and the oppositional Sözcü and Cumhuriyet). We reach the counterintuitive conclusion that these news outlets used different framing strategies in the immediate aftermath of the coup attempt and that the gap between them widened over the period of analysis

    Soğuk Savaş sonrası Türkiye'nin jeopolitik vizyonunun ve kimliğinin dış politika yoluyla yeniden inşası : İsmail Cem örneği (1997-2002)

    No full text
    This thesis seeks to reveal how civilizational discourse influences foreign policy making and undertakes a comprehensive content analysis of the foreign policy discourse of Ismail Cem, Turkey’s foreign minister from 1997 to 2002, who made major contributions to the civilizational geopolitical discourse of Turkey as well as the identity discussions in foreign policy after the end of the Cold War. The thesis attempts to answer the question of whether it is possible to construct civilizational geopolitics that can coexist with pluralities (ethnic groups, nations, or civilizations) by minimizing boundary-producing practices, and, at the same time, by casting an active and “central” role to Turkey in foreign policy. This analysis is a critical examination seeking to reveal how and with what consequences Cem used the civilizational discourse in Turkey in order to justify his foreign policy practices. In accordance with this purpose, the first phase of this study has examined the historical background of the emergence of geopolitics and civilizational discussions and their introduction to Turkey from the perspective of critical geopolitics. In the second phase, the influence of the changing international conjuncture with the end of the Cold War over Turkey’s geopolitical value and identity perception have been discussed focusing on Ismail Cem’s tenure in office. Cem’s redefinition of Turkey’s identity, civilizational belonging and geopolitical vision have been deeply evaluated emphasizing the impact of national identity and history over the perception of geopolitical visions.Abstract ....................................................................................................................... iv Acknowledgements ..................................................................................................... vi Table of Contents ........................................................................................................vii List of Abbreviations ....................................................................................................ix CHAPTERS 1.

    Analogtan dijitale:aile fotoğrafının dönüşümü

    Photography is part and parcel of our everyday lives. Its representational and communicative capability has made it an indispensable medium for both institutions and individuals alike. With the advent of digital photography, one can observe its impact in every corner of social and cultural sphere. The purpose of this study is to attempt to understand the transition from analogue to digital photography with regard to its impact on socio-cultural practices and contexts. To this end, at the center of the discussion in this study is family photography, for its transformation, I believe, is indicative of the transformation of social and cultural practices around photography in the transition. Family photographs, are objects that have material and social aspects, have long functioned as the transmitter of familial networks, relations, rituals and memory. The coming of digital technologies and ubiquity of photography as well as the changes in its form and function, has also transformed social and cultural practices around family photography. As the methodology for this study, a qualitative research approach was chosen. The data gathered from sixteen one-to-one semi structured interviews serve as the basis for this study. As a result, this study indicates the following findings. Firstly, social practices around family photography prevail, but in different complex and multi-layered forms. However, the family album does not seem to be a sustainable ritual because of the over-abundance of photography. Secondly, the intension behind taking photos has changed from storing for memory to forming identity as family photography has replaced with what may be called friendship photography. And finally, all these transformations create a blurred boundary between privacy and publicity.Abstract ....................................................................................................................... iv Öz ................................................................................................................................. v Dedication………………………………………………………………………………………..……………..……..vi Acknowledgements .................................................................................................... vii Table of Contents ………………………………………………………………….……………………………. viii List of Figures .............................................................................................................. ix CHAPTERS 1.

    As an interdependent being, human seeks security and meaning through his interactions with his social world. Old age is a period in which this need can be felt more due to some changes that a person encounters. In order to grasp this period, starting from intersubjective relations of people may bring about significant information about the lives of people for the construction of old age perceptions. In this respect, this study is a contribution to the micro-sociology of old age for showing the different aspects of it through the experiences of thirteen middle classed, relatively independent women who are 65 and more years old, perform daily praying and live in Istanbul in their homes. Rather than measuring the relationship between religiosity and being old, it tries to follow the meaning-making process of these women without undermining the role of the researcher herself. It is based on a phenomenological understanding of old age by using symbolic interactionism of Herbert Blumer by combining it with Elias’ approach to old age. By making narrative analysis of life stories of women, it concludes that there are three major perceptions: old age as a physical and mental dependency, old age as despair vs. opportunity, and old age as loneliness. By looking the actions of women which are the results of the meanings of old age, the study questions the social interactions that give away these meanings.Abstract ................................................................................................................... iv Öz .............................................................................................................................v Dedication ............................................................................................................... vi Acknowledgements ................................................................................................ vii Table Of Contents .................................................................................................... ix 1.Introduction .......................................................................................................... 1 1.1.
