  • KRISENSTAAT TÜRKEI Zum Buch
    KRISENSTAAT TÜRKEI Zum Buch Vor kurzem noch galt die Türkei als Staat, der West und Ost, Islam und Demokratie vereint, der Vorbild sein kann für die gesamte Region. Heute ist die Türkei ein Krisenstaat, der sich von inneren und äußeren Feinden bedroht sieht und in dem Demokratie und Rechtsstaatlich- keit erheblich unter Druck geraten sind. Rücksichtslos lässt Präsident Recep Tayyip Erdoğan Andersgläubige und Andersdenkende verfolgen, immer heftiger provoziert er Konflikte mit Nachbarn und außenpoliti- schen Partnern, nicht zuletzt mit Deutschland. SPIEGEL-ONLINE-Kor- respondent Hasnain Kazim hat miterlebt, wie sich die Türkei in den ver- gangenen Jahren radikalisierte. Er zeigt, wie explosiv die Situation im Land ist und was das Ende der Demokratie am Bosporus bedeutet – für die Türkei, für die Region und für Europa. Zum Autor Hasnain Kazim, 1974 als Sohn indisch-pakistanischer Einwanderer in Oldenburg geboren, schreibt seit 2004 für SPIEGEL ONLINE und den SPIEGEL. Seit 2009 lebt er als Korrespondent im Ausland, von 2013 bis 2016 berichtete er aus Istanbul. Nachdem er die Türkei verlassen musste, ist er heute Korrespondent in Wien. Bei allem politischen und religiö- sen Extremismus, dem Kazim bei seiner Arbeit begegnet, versucht er, auch das Schöne und Alltägliche zu beschreiben. Für seine Bericht- erstattung wurde er als »Politikjournalist des Jahres« geehrt und mit dem »CNN Journalist Award« ausgezeichnet. Zuletzt veröffentlichte er unter dem Titel »Plötzlich Pakistan« seine Erfahrungen als Auslands- korrespondent (2015). Hasnain Kazim KRISENSTAAT TÜRKEI Erdoğan und das Ende der Demokratie am Bosporus Deutsche Verlags-Anstalt Das Mottozitat auf Seite 9 ist mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Verlags dem Band Istanbul: Erinnerungen an eine Stadt von Orhan Pamuk entnommen (Carl Hanser Verlag, München, 2006).

Loomis ________________________________ Dr. William Staples Date Defended: 15 July 2016 ii The Dissertation Committee for Terilyn Johnston Huntington certifies that this is the approved version of the following thesis: Exposing the Clandestine: Silence and Voice in America’s Drone War ________________________________ Chairperson Dr. Donald Haider-Markel Date approved: 15 July 2016 iii Abstract The increasing reliance of the American military on weaponized drones in counter terrorism efforts has produced a contentious debate regarding the use of drones. This debate is characterized by two competing social discourses. First, a dominant discourse, articulated by the political elite in the United States, that advocates the use of drones as an issue of national security, while maintaining the clandestine nature of the drone program. Second, a subversive discourse, primarily articulated by legal scholars and human rights organizations, that criticize the civilian casualties resulting from the United States’ use of drones and attempts to

Doch statt die Wutmails einfach wegzuklicken, hat er beschlossen zurückzuschreiben – schlagfertig, witzig und immer wieder überraschend. Dieses ebenso unterhaltsame wie kluge Buch versammelt seine besten Schlagabtäusche mit den Karlheinzen dieser Welt und beweist, warum man den Hass, der im eigenen Postfach landet, nicht unkommentiert lassen sollte. Denn, wie Hasnain Kazim schreibt: »Wenn wir schweigen, beginnen wir, den Hass zu akzeptieren. Also, reden wir!« Autor Hasnain Kazim Hasnain Kazim ist gebürtiger Oldenburger und Sohn indisch-pakistanischer Einwanderer. Er wuchs im Alten Land, vor den Toren Hamburgs, und in Karatschi in Pakistan auf, studierte Politikwissenschaften und schlug eine Laufbahn als Marineoffizier ein. Er liebt Grünkohl und Curry, aber nicht zusammen. Das journalistische Handwerk lernte er im Schwäbischen, bei der »Heilbronner Stimme«, schrieb unter anderem für das dpa- Südasienbüro in Delhi und von 2004 bis 2019 für den SPIEGEL und SPIEGEL ONLINE, die meiste Zeit davon als Auslandskorrespondent in Islamabad, Istanbul und Wien. Für seine Arbeit wurde er mit diversen Preisen ausgezeichnet, darunter dem »CNN Journalist Award«. Er lebt als freier Autor nach wie Hasnain Kazim, 1974 als Sohn indisch-pakistanischer Einwanderer in Oldenburg geboren, schreibt seit 2004 für SPIEGEL ONLINE und den SPIEGEL.
