  • The Politics of Gender and the Making of Kemalist Feminist Activism in Contemporary Turkey (1946–2011)
    THE POLITICS OF GENDER AND THE MAKING OF KEMALIST FEMINIST ACTIVISM IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY (1946–2011) By Selin Çağatay Submitted to Central European University Department of Gender Studies In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervisor: Prof. Susan Zimmermann CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2017 Copyright Notice This dissertation contains no materials accepted for any other degrees in any other institutions. The dissertation contains no materials previously written and/or published by another person, except where appropriate acknowledgment is made in the form of bibliographical reference. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract The aim of this dissertation is to contribute to the understanding of the relationship between women's activism and the politics of gender by investigating Kemalist feminism in Turkey as a case study. The dissertation offers a political history of Kemalist feminism that enables an insight into the intertwined relationship between women's activism and the politics of gender. It focuses on the class, national/ethnic, and cultural/religious dynamics of and their implications for Kemalist feminist politics. In so doing, it situates Kemalist feminist activism within the politics of gender in Turkey; that is, it analyzes the relationship between Kemalist feminist activism and other actors in gender politics, such as the state, transnational governance, political parties, civil society organizations, and feminist, Islamist, and Kurdish women's activisms. The analysis of Kemalist feminist activism provided in this dissertation draws on a methodological-conceptual framework that can be summarized as follows. Activism provides the ground for women to become actors of the politics of gender.

The process has clearly revealed the roles and responsibilities of all governmental/political actors, from the General Staff to the judicial authorities, from government spokespersons to law enforcement authorities and from the media to paramilitary forces, in the murder of Hrant Dink, in the failure to prevent the murder, and in the failure to identify the actual perpetrators.

  • Semi-Authoritarian Incorporation and Autocratic Militarism in Turkey
    Semi-Authoritarian Incorporation and Autocratic Militarism in Turkey Tim Jacoby ABSTRACT This article argues that, since the early 1980s, there have been two regimes in Turkey. The first, which is broadly akin to Michael Mann’s characterization of Semi-Authoritarian Incorporation, has predominated in areas of the country not administered through emergency legislation. In keeping with his model, it has been most fully asserted in areas of key economic value — particularly the Marmara region and the environs of the capital, Ankara. In the thirteen predominantly Kurdish provinces of the south-east of the country, on the other hand, a second of Mann’s regime types, Autocratic Militarism,is discernible. This was institutionalized under a new constitutional structure introduced following the 1980 coup as a means of dealing with a rise in pro-Kurdish insurgency. INTRODUCTION Turkey is at a crossroads. The collapse of pro-Kurdish terrorism, the pro- spect of accession to the European Union and the landslide election victory of a highly reformist government have, over the last four years, brought the nature of Ankara’s administration sharply into focus. Yet there is a surpris- ing absence of studies analysing the structure of the Turkish state. Few have adopted an explicitly theoretical method and none has explored the duality of the current regime. This article uses the work of Michael Mann as a vantage point from which to analyse the political system which has emerged in Turkey since the early 1980s. It firstly sets out the model of social power devised in Volume One of his The Sources of Social Power (Mann, 1986) and reaffirmed in his more recent publications, Incoherent Empire (Mann, 2003) and Fascists (Mann, 2004).
