K. Ataturk This thesis deals with the very essence of modern Turkish nationalism. Its historical, sociological and po­ litical aspects and implications will be examined. After a rather summary survey of European nationalism in general, as a social and political phenomenon, with its historical development up from its earliest stages, with all its diverse, sometimes even divergent aspects and trends, hu­ manitarian and defensive, aggressive, and integral, uni- versalist. We will try to examine the characteristic fea­ tures of modern Turkish nationalism, based on rational principles devoid of aggressiveness, humanitarian and con­ structive, aimed at creating strong foundations for the future development of a nation which under the guidance of a wise and farseeing leader, awakened from the long Otto­ man sleep to an entirely different present and future. To mark the true sense and historical significance of that UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES UNIVERSITE D'OTTAWA - ECOLE DES GRADUES INTRODUCTION vi fundamental transformation apparent and understandable, we must trace it back to the remote past of the Turkish nation, to the Turkish ancestral spirit of the pre-Ottoman era, to the patriarchal society. The fundamental charac­ teristics of Kemalism, as a socio-political movement, and its outgrowth, modern Turkish nationalism, have already been dealt with by historians and political scientists without, however, tracing them back to their historical and sociological antecedents and roots* That is why the phenomenon has not been appreciated correctly, with all its aspects and implications. To those authors, Kemalism seemed to be a rather purely rational concept, devoid of any links with the past, so to say rootless, artificially grafted into a new tree, a new political entity. To assess it properly, one must go back to the early stages of Turk­ ish history, and social development through the ages, to the evolution which took place during the Islamic Ottoman era, with its various pan movements: Ottomanism, Pan-Is- lamism, Pan-Turanism and Pan-Turkism. Kemalism, which takes part of its roots from Pan-Turkism, is merely the antithe­ sis and negation of Ottomanism and Pan-Islamism. The main idea of Ataturk, the very essence of Ke­ malism, the source of modern Turkish nationalism, besides UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA - SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES UNIVERSITE D'OTTAWA - ECOLE DES GRADUES INTRODUCTION vii the effort toward westernization, was a return to the Turk­ ish national heritage, to the patriarchal Turkish way of life, with its true Turkish national features, culture and tradition, by eliminating all the elements of alien origin, which became gradually superposed during the Ottoman era, and overshadowed or obscured the true core of Turkism, of the Turkish national heritage to an extent as to render it quite different, almost alien. Nationalism became one of the six pillars, six basic principles of Kemalism and of the new structure of the modern Turkish State. However, its true significance was much deeper: the whole structure of new Turkey, of her new moral, ethical, social and political life and entity, was to be revised and built upon the national heritage, upon truly national foundations, all that as a result of the awakened national consciousness, essentially Turkish, neither Islamic, Ottoman or Turanist. This was the sense and the significance of the Kemalist reforms, their very- nature, their ideological but at the same time realistic and sober foundations. The essentially constructive role and significance of modern Turkish nationalism, within the new Turkish State as well as outside, within the international society, UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA - SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES UNIVERSITE D'OTTAWA -- ECOLE DES GRADUES INTRODUCTION viii has to be studied against the background of the contempo­ rary nationalist trends prevailing in certain areas of the world. That comparative study will be necessary to ascertain the correct place and role of Kemalist Turkey in the world of to-day. Before proceeding on this essay about nationalism, a question, which could arise in any person's mind, should be answered. Could any person writing an article or essay on his own country, especially on a delicate matter such as his country's nationalism, be ever impartial? Although it would be hard for any person, in such circumstances to be definitely impartial, it would still be hard on the other hand for a foreigner to reflect the feelings and voice of an alien nation accurately and also in an impartial manner. It is not impossible, but it is extremely difficult to find such authors. A Turkish author once wrote that "if the foreigner knew, and the national citizen could be able to do, then a complete objective result could be achieved". Although this statement bears considerable truth, it could be added that a man is still a man and it is very likely that he might be unable to guard himself from certain negative influences. A foreigner could no less be impartial than a citizen of a nation. The foreigner influenced by UNIVERSITY OF OTTAWA ~ SCHOOL OF GRADUATE STUDIES UNIVERSITE D'OTTAWA -- ECOLE DES GRADUES INTRODUCTION ix historical or certain other aspects could write books far from the truth. As said, individuals are usually defeated by their feelings, as usually certain feelings prevail upon rational thought. Thus if the moral faults or mistakes of a foreigner are deeper than those exaggerations of a citizen, it is preferred to have the essay from the latter one. Thus we will try to be as objective and rational as possible.

    Türkiye’de İktidar-Basın İlişkilerinin Çatışmalı Doğasına Bir Örnek Olarak Ahmet Emin Yalman Davası (1958-1960) Resul BABAOĞLU Dr. Öğr. Üyesi, Siirt Üniversitesi, Tarih Bölümü E-Mail: [email protected] Geliş Tarihi: 08.12.2018 Kabul Tarihi: 25.03.2019 ÖZ BABAOĞLU, Resul, Türkiye’de İktidar-Basın İlişkilerinin Çatışmalı Doğasına Bir Örnek Olarak Ahmet Emin Yalman Davası (1958-1960), CTAD, Yıl 15, Sayı 29 (Bahar 2019), s. 339-371. Türkiye’de basın faaliyetlerinin gelişimine bakıldığında, ilk olarak uzun erimli bir hürriyet mücadelesinin işlevsel bir aracı göze çarpmaktadır. Bu nedenle basın ve iktidar arasındaki ilişkiler dönemsel olarak çatışmalı bir görünüm arz etmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti’nin son döneminde başladığı gazetecilik hayatına II. Abdülhamid, II. Meşrutiyet ve Erken Cumhuriyet gibi kendine has politik ortamlara sahip olan dönemlerde devam eden Ahmet Emin Yalman, önemli olaylara tanıklık etmiştir. Gazetecilik konusunda elde ettiği tecrübe ve bilgi birikimini çok partili hayata geçiş döneminde de sergileyen Yalman bu dönemde de basın ve iktidar ilişkisinin önemli bir figürü olarak yer bulmuştur. Demokrat Parti’nin kuruluş aşamasında muhaliflerin yanında duran Yalman, sahibi olduğu ve başyazarlığını yaptığı Vatan gazetesinde muhalefetin önde gelen isimlerinin yazılarını yayınlamıştır. Türkiye’de liberal ve demokratik bir siyasal sistem kurulması amacıyla muhalefetin yaşatılması için çaba sarf eden Yalman, 1950 seçimlerinden sonra Demokrat Parti karşıtı bir anlayışla gazeteciliğe devam etmiştir. Türkiye’de siyasal ortamın şiddet sarmalına sürüklendiği 1950’lerin sonlarında ise basın faaliyetleri adli davalara konu olmuştur. Bu zor 340 Cumhuriyet Tarihi Araştırmaları Dergisi Yıl 15 Sayı 29 (Bahar 2019) koşullarda gazetecilik faaliyetlerini devam ettirmeye çalışan Yalman, basına uygulanan baskı politikasının da merkezinde yer alan isimlerden biri olmuştur.

  • Common Place: Rereading 'Nation' in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta
    Common Place: Rereading ‘Nation’ in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta C. Santiago Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Anitta C. Santiago All rights reserved ABSTRACT Common Place: Rereading ‘Nation’ in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta C. Santiago This dissertation examines quotation specifically, and intertextuality more generally, in the development of American/literary culture from the birth of the republic through the Civil War. This period, already known for its preoccupation with national unification and the development of a self-reliant national literature, was also a period of quotation, reprinting and copying. Within the analogy of literature and nation characterizing the rhetoric of the period, I translate the transtextual figure of quotation as a protean form that sheds a critical light on the nationalist project. This project follows both how texts move (transnational migration) and how they settle into place (national naturalization). Combining a theoretical mapping of how texts move and transform intertextually and a book historical mapping of how texts move and transform materially, I trace nineteenth century examples of the culture of quotation and how its literary mutability both disrupts and participates in the period’s national and literary movements. In the first chapter, I engage scholarship on republican print culture and on republican emulation to interrogate the literary roots of American nationalism in its transatlantic context. Looking at commonplace books, autobiographies, morality tales, and histories, I examine how quotation as a practice of memory impression functions in national re-membering.

  • Planting Parliaments in Eurasia, 1850–1950
    Planting Parliaments in Eurasia, 1850–1950 Parliaments are often seen as Western European and North American institutions and their establishment in other parts of the world as a derivative and mostly defec- tive process. This book challenges such Eurocentric visions by retracing the evo- lution of modern institutions of collective decision-making in Eurasia. Breaching the divide between different area studies, the book provides nine case studies cov- ering the area between the eastern edge of Asia and Eastern Europe, including the former Russian, Ottoman, Qing, and Japanese Empires as well as their succes- sor states. In particular, it explores the appeals to concepts of parliamentarism, deliberative decision-making, and constitutionalism; historical practices related to parliamentarism; and political mythologies across Eurasia. It focuses on the historical and “reestablished” institutions of decision-making, which consciously hark back to indigenous traditions and adapt them to the changing circumstances in imperial and postimperial contexts. Thereby, the book explains how represent- ative institutions were needed for the establishment of modernized empires or postimperial states but at the same time offered a connection to the past.
