Mirrors of Modernization: The American Reflection in urkT ey Abstract This project documents otherwise neglected dimensions entailed in the assemblage and implementations of political theories, namely their fabrication through encounters with their material, local, and affective constituents. Rather than emanating from the West and migrating to their venues of application, social scientific theories are fashioned in particular sites where political relations can be staged and worked upon. Such was the case with modernization theory, which prevailed in official and academic circles in the United States during the early phases of the Cold War. The theory bore its imprint on a series of developmental and infrastructural projects in Turkey, the beneficiary of Marshall Plan funds and academic exchange programs and one of the theory's most important models. The manuscript scrutinizes the corresponding sites of elaboration for the key indices of modernization: the capacity for empathy, mobility, and hospitality. In the case of Turkey the sites included survey research, the implementation of a highway network, and the expansion of the tourism industry through landmarks such as the Istanbul Hilton Hotel. Social scientific interviews, highway machinery, and hotel lobbies were less external sites of implementation for modernization theory than laboratories where it was manufactured and enacted. While such microcosms were designed to scale down competing visions of modernization and technical expertise to a manageable size, their implementation was offset by the resilience of recipient subjects, as well as anxieties and hesitations on the part of practitioners. The projects of the social scientists, technical experts, and policymakers were not tantamount to a straightforward process of Americanization; rather techniques of knowledge production and corresponding visions of development were dynamic and subject to strategies of translation that reworked the inevitabilities their creators imagined. Based on multi-sited archival research spanning government agencies, private corporations, and the published work and private papers of key social scientists, the project traces the history and concrete enactment of a political theory, one whose imprint continues to guide current debates on political and economic development.

My advisor Anne Norton’s elegance as a teacher, scholar, and writer has been a constant source of inspiration from the time I arrived at Penn. She has lent me considerable support throughout the various phases of my studies, and the dissertation’s better turns of phrase invariably belong to her. Over the course of the years, Bob Vitalis has housed me, nourished me with food and books to read, and taught me to appreciate finding aids and the importance of intellectual history. While he also made me cry on more than one occasion, I am grateful for his insistence that I write a dissertation that I believe in. Even though Timothy Mitchell was a late addition to the committee, I hope that his imprint on the project and his insightful feedback are discernible in the pages that follow. Archival research, as I soon came to learn throughout my trips, is by no means a solitary process. I would like to thank the staff at the National Archives in College Park, the Seely Mudd Library at Princeton University, the Institute Archives and Special Collections at MIT, the Rare Book and Manuscript Library, as well as the Avery Architectural and Fine Arts Library at Columbia University. The staff at the Grand National Assembly Archives, the National Library in Ankara, and the Beyazit State Library in Istanbul were exceptionally patient with my often unreasonable demands for books, newspapers, and periodicals. Dr. Mark Young at the Hospitality Industry Archives in Houston was a most resourceful host, and shared with me delightful anecdotes about several generations of the Hilton family. Gülçin Manka and Figen Aydoğdu put up with me for weeks at the Department of Highways in Ankara, encouraged me to make as many photocopies as I wished, and shared their tea breaks with me. Marina Rustow put me in touch with Margrit Wreschner-Rustow, who opened up her home to me, shared my enthusiasm about her late husband’s life and work, and introduced me to gefilte fish, among other things. During the research and writing phases of the project, as well as conference presentations, I benefited from conversations and email exchanges with several people who suggested novel directions of research, and did not hesitate to share helpful documents and suggestions with me. These are Mustafa Baskıcı, Sibel Bozdoğan, Deniz Çakır, Frederick Frey, Renata Holod, Toby Jones, Reşat Kasaba, Matthew Moore, Thomas Naff, Amy Offner, Cangül Örnek, Haluk Pamir, Frank Plantan, Jim Ryan, Emmanuelle Saada, Ilhan Tekeli, Eve Trout Powell, Derya Yorgancıoğlu, and Gizem Zencirci. Long after the conferences were over, Omar Cheta, Evren Savcı, and Selim Karlıtekin kept me sane and entertained through our online correspondences. I was fortunate enough that research trips also allowed me to spend time with family and loved ones. In Istanbul, my aunt Sehran Özer gave me access to her library, which contains a rich documentation of Turkish intellectual history. My uncle Emre Özer’s curiosity about the project was a wonderful addition to our raki meals. Meeting Dicle Şarman in Taksim was the best ending to a long day at the library. In Ankara, Zafer and Kerem Adalet kindly put me in touch with various “guesthouses” and friends who hosted iv me during many trips. I also relied on the generosity of Kerem Ozer and Jennifer Tate in Austin, Julian di Giovanni in DC, Stella Kyriakopoulos and Sonal Shah in New York, and Benjamin Schultz in Somerville. Ben was also the enthusiastic recipient of hour-long phone calls detailing various archival visits across the ocean, and I am grateful for his help with document titles, his companionship, and support over several years. I have acquired professional and personal debts at various institutions. The research for the project was funded by a Penfield Dissertation Research Fellowship from the University of Pennsylvania and two summer research grants from the Department of Political Science. The last year of writing was supported by a generous ACLS/Mellon Dissertation Completion Fellowship. At the University of Pennsylvania, I benefited from the support, assistance, and advice of Peter Agree, Jeffrey Green, Nancy Hirschmann, Pat Kozak, Matt Levendusky, Ian Lustick, Brendan O’Leary, and Rudy Sil. Before coming to Penn, I was lucky to receive mentorship from Nick Xenos, Barbara Cruikshank, Jillian Schwedler, Amel Ahmed, and Peter Haas at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. At 3440 Market, I was lucky to share conversations, brainstorming sessions, and lunch breaks with Willie Gin, Meredith Wooten, Emmerich Davies, Tim Weaver, Murad Idris, Samah ElHajibrahim, and above all, Marcia Dotson. Stephan Stohler provided the best study breaks around the office, cast a sympathetic, social scientific eye over my writing, and supported me in all manners over many email exchanges. Aniruddha Jairam has become my most challenging interlocutor at workshop presentations, flailing only during our informal conversations about Arundhati Roy and B.R. Ambedkar, or so I tell myself. Ian Hartshorn and Jon Argaman are among my oldest friends in the program, and wonderful writing buddies to boot. Thea Riofrancos has read almost every word of the dissertation, keeping me disciplined, and helping pinpoint the connections I kept missing: the project and my years in the program benefited immeasurably from our friendship.

  • Introducion to Duplicate
    INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE INTRODUCTION TO DUPLICATE BRIDGE This book is not about how to bid, declare or defend a hand of bridge. It assumes you know how to do that or are learning how to do those things elsewhere. It is your guide to playing Duplicate Bridge, which is how organized, competitive bridge is played all over the World. It explains all the Laws of Duplicate and the process of entering into Club games or Tournaments, the Convention Card, the protocols and rules of player conduct; the paraphernalia and terminology of duplicate. In short, it’s about the context in which duplicate bridge is played. To become an accomplished duplicate player, you will need to know everything in this book. But you can start playing duplicate immediately after you read Chapter I and skim through the other Chapters. © ACBL Unit 533, Palm Springs, Ca © ACBL Unit 533, 2018 Pg 1 INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE This book belongs to Phone Email I joined the ACBL on ____/____ /____ by going to www.ACBL.com and signing up. My ACBL number is __________________ © ACBL Unit 533, 2018 Pg 2 INTRODUCTION to DUPLICATE Not a word of this book is about how to bid, play or defend a bridge hand. It assumes you have some bridge skills and an interest in enlarging your bridge experience by joining the world of organized bridge competition. It’s called Duplicate Bridge. It’s the difference between a casual Saturday morning round of golf or set of tennis and playing in your Club or State championships. As in golf or tennis, your skills will be tested in competition with others more or less skilled than you; this book is about the settings in which duplicate happens.

    United Nations interagency health-needs-assessment mission Southern Turkey, 4−5 December 2012 IOM • OIM Joint Mission of WHO, UNFPA, UNHCR, UNICEF and IOM 1 United Nations interagency health-needs-assessment mission Southern Turkey, 4−5 December 2012 Joint Mission of WHO, UNFPA, UNHCR, UNICEF and IOM Abstract On 4–5 December 2012, a United Nations interagency health-needs-assessment mission was conducted in four of the 14 Syrian refugee camps in southern Turkey: two in the Gaziantep province (İslahiye and Nizip camps), and one each in the provinces of Kahramanmaraş (Central camp) and Osmaniye (Cevdetiye camp). The mission, which was organized jointly with the World Health Organization (WHO), the Ministry of Health of Turkey and the Disaster and Emergency Management Presidency of the Prime Ministry of Turkey (AFAD), the United Nations Populations Fund (UNFPA), the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF), the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for refugees (UNHCR) and comprised representatives of the International Organization for Migration (IOM). It was coordinated by WHO. The primary goals of the mission were: to gain a better understanding of the capacities existing in the camps, including the health services provided, and the functioning of the referral system; and, on the basis of the findings, identify how the United Nations agencies could contribute to supporting activities related to safeguarding the health of the more than 138 000 Syrian citizens living in Turkey at the time of the mission. The mission team found that the high-level Turkish health-care services were accessible to and free of charge for all Syrian refugees, independent of whether they were living in or outside the camps.

  • SABATAYCILIK SALTANATI VE MEŞHUR DÖNMELER - Milli Çözüm Dergisi
    SABATAYCILIK SALTANATI VE MEŞHUR DÖNMELER - Milli Çözüm Dergisi Yazar Milli Çözüm Dergisi 26 Temmuz 2012 Birçok internet sitesinde yıllardır yayınlandığı ve hiç kimsenin yalanlama ihtiyacı duymadığı,“Sabataist Müslüman görünümlü gizli Yahudi”leri, tekrar gündeme getirmek, asılsız iddia ve iftiralar varsa, ilgililere bunları düzeltme imkanı vermek; ve şahısları deşifre edip hedef göstermek gibi bayağı ve aşağı bir fesatlıktan uzak; ülkemizin, devletimizin ve milletimizin muhatap olduğu bir tehdide dikkat çekmek üzere bu konuya değinmeyi münasip gördük. Bilinen bazı “Selanik Dönmeleri” (“Sabataycılar” veya “Gizli Yahudiler”) Bu listenin dayandığı kaynak: ( http://www.sabetay.50g.com/Liste/liste.html ) internette bulduğum en geniş DÖNME listesiydi. Fakat 28 Şubat’ın (1997) meşhur isimlerini bu listede göremedim: Org. Çevik Bir (28 Şubatın mimarlarından), Güven Erkaya Deniz Komutanı (28 Şubatın mimarlarından), Kemal Gürüz YÖK Başkanı, Prof. Kemal Alemdaroğlu İ.Ü Eski Rektörü, Prof. Nur Sertel gibilerinin de Sebataist olduğu belirtilmekteydi. 28 Şubat sonrasına dikkat edelim. Ordu’dan en çok İRTİCACI subay ve öğrenci atılması 28 Şubat’ın ilk yıllarında gözlendi, Üniversiteler İRTİCACI’lardan temizlendi. Daha evvelden imam hatiplerde, üniversitelerde başörtüsü ile okunabilirken, bu tarihten sonra bu hak engellendi. İmam Hatiplerin pratikte önü kesildi. Yükselen Anadolu sermayesinin önü kesildi. (Cüneyt Ülsever’e göre, 28 Şubatın asıl sebebi bu sermaye meselesiymiş). 28 Şubatın planları Deniz Kuvvetlerinin Gölcük’teki merkezinde yapıldı deniyor. Bu merkez 1999 Gölcük depreminde denize gömüldü. Rasathaneden Prof. Işıkara depremin merkez üssünün “tam deniz kuvvetleri merkezi” olduğunu söylemişti. Yakın geçmişteki bir Genel Kurmay Başkanımızın dönme olduğu vurgulanıyor. 2-3 defa nüfus kütüğünü bir şehirden başka şehre taşıdığı, izini kaybettirmek için yaptığı söyleniyor. “Türkler 1.500.000 ermeni öldürdü” deyip, derhal Nobel’i alan Orhan Pamuk’u da unutmamak gerekiyor.
