  • Notes from NOREF and İhsan Doğramacı Center For
    V2, N1, Jan. 2013, 53-59 Notes from NOREF and İhsan Doğramacı Center for Foreign Policy and Peace Research: Summary and Reflections on the Turkish and Norwegian Approaches to the Arab Spring and Peacebuilding* Ç. Esra Çuhadar Bilkent University Monica Rafael Simoes Norwegian Peacebuilding Resource Center (NOREF) The Arab uprisings and the transition processes following the regime changes in these countries have occupied the foreign policy agendas of Turkey and Norway during the last two years, even though these events affected the two nations in varying degrees and ways. Turkey, as a direct or regional neighbour of these Arab countries, has been experiencing this process more directly and has been greatly affected economically, socially, and politically, especially from the influx of almost 200.000 refugees. Norway, on the other hand, which has been experiencing this process rather indirectly and from a greater distance, has still been impacted in a variety of ways. Regardless of the magnitude of the tremors felt by Turkey and Norway, both countries desire to act upon the developments in a constructive manner and be constructive forces to help this transition. A Turkey-Norway collaboration may sound like an unusual partnership, but a common agenda for peacebuilding and conflict resolution led two organizations, the Norwegian Peacebuilding Resource Center (NOREF) and the İhsan Doğramacı Peace Foundation’s Center for Foreign Policy and Peace Research at Bilkent University in Ankara, to explore the potential of this partnership in relation to the Arab uprisings. The two groups collaborated in a workshop held with Turkish and Norwegian academics under the co-sponsorship of the Strategic Research Center (SAM) of the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs on 1 and 2 November 2012 in Ankara.

    UNITED STATES INSTITUTE OF PEACE www.usip.org SPECIAL REPORT 1200 17th Street NW • Washington, DC 20036 • 202.457.1700 • fax 202.429.6063 ABOUT THE REPORT I RAQ AND I TS N EIGHBORS Iraq’s neighbors are playing a major role—both positive and negative—in the stabilization and reconstruction of “the new Iraq.” As part of the Institute’s “Iraq and Henri J. Barkey Its Neighbors” project, a group of leading specialists on the geopolitics of the region and on the domestic politics of the individual countries is assessing the interests and influence of the countries surrounding Iraq. In addition, these specialists are examining how Turkey and Iraq the situation in Iraq is impacting U.S. bilateral relations with these countries. Henri Barkey’s report on Turkey is the first in a series of USIP special reports on “Iraq The Perils (and Prospects) of Proximity and Its Neighbors” to be published over the next few months. Next in the series will be a study on Iran by Geoffrey Kemp of the Nixon Center. The “Iraq and Its Neighbors” project is directed by Scott Lasensky of the Institute’s Research and Studies Program. For an overview of the topic, see Phebe Marr and Scott Lasensky, “An Opening at Sharm el-Sheikh,” Beirut Daily Star, November 20, 2004. Henri J. Barkey is the Bernard L. and Bertha F. Cohen Professor of international relations at Lehigh University.

  • The İhsan Doğramacı Children's Hospital Stimulus for a Turkish Miracle 35
    Memorial Medical Journal of Islamic World Academy of Sciences The İhsan Doğramacı Children’s Hospital Stimulus for A Turkish Miracle Şinasi ÖZSOYLU1 1 Retired Professor of Pediatrics, Hematology and Hepatology, Honorary Fellow of American Academy of Pediatrics, Honorary Member of American Pediatric Society, Honorary Member of Turkish Academy of Sciences, Fellow of Islamic World Academy of Sciences The late Prof. Dr. Ihsan DOĞRAMACI, honorary fellow of the Islamic World Academy of Sciences (IAS), passed away on February 25, 2010. To celebrate his memory, it is fitting to recall how this extraordinarily creative physician’s establishment of a children’s hospital in 1957 led to rapid changes in Turkey’s traditional medical approaches. Dr. Doğramacı was appointed associate professor of pediatrics at the Ankara University Medical School in 1949, but the clinical director of the department did not allow him to apply the developments of modern pediatrics that he had observed during fellowships at the Boston Children’s Hospital and at Washington University in St. Louis. As a result, in 1954, he convinced the Senate of Ankara University to establish another pediatric department under his leadership. The Senate even offered him half of the pediatric premises. Dr. Doğramacı, however, rejected the offer of sharing quarters, preferring to use a two-room house in a slum area of Ankara as his child health clinic (Figure 1). In the meantime, he began construction of a new Children’s Hospital. The construction went ahead unbelievably fast for those times, and the first patient, a premature baby with jaundice, was admitted on July 7, 1957.

  • Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
    Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe.

  • Émigré Albert Eckstein's Legacy on Health Care Modernization in Turkey
    Émigré Albert Eckstein’s Legacy on Health Care Modernization in Turkey: Two Generations of Students Who Have Made Major Contributions Çimen Günay-Erkol and Arnold Reisman Introduction uring the 1920s, Turkey witnessed a maelstrom of radical reforms and with the abolition of the caliphate on 3 March 1924 the country took D giant steps to become a secular state with all its ramifications. On the same day, another revolutionary law aiming at unification, standardization, and secularization of the educational institutions (Tevhid-i Tedrisat kanunu) was passed. This law closed the religious schools and attached all educational institutions to the Ministry of National Education.1 Several other reforms in education followed with speed. The Latin based alphabet was mandated by law on 1 November 1928, significantly increasing literacy within a short time frame.2 The most significant reform to the subject at hand came in 1933. Turkey’s system of higher education, including medical education, was thoroughly revised when the University Reform Law No. 2252 was passed on 31 May 1933. It abolished the İstanbul Darülfünun, an academy based on the Islamic tradition of higher education derived from the medieval medrese, and turned into a university during the first decade of the 20th century.3 1 Yasemin Karakaşoğlu,“Turkey”, in Wolfgang Hörner, Hans Döbert, Botho von Kopp, and Wolfgang Mitter, eds., The Education Systems of Europe, (Amsterdam, 2007), pp. 783–807. 2 Adoption of Latin alphabet increased the percentage of literacy in Turkey, from 9% in 1924 to 65% in 1975 to 82.3% in 1995. See Geoffrey Lewis, The Turkish Language Reform: A Catastrophic Success (Oxford, 1999).

    Cambridge University Press 978-1-108-49469-4 — Women's International Thought: A New History Edited by Patricia Owens , Katharina Rietzler Frontmatter More Information Women’s International Thought: A New History Women’s International Thought: A New History is the first cross- disciplinary history of women’s international thought. Bringing together some of the foremost historians and scholars of international relations working today, this book recovers and analyzes the path-breaking work of eighteen leading thinkers of international politics from the early to mid-twentieth century. Recovering and analyzing this important work, the essays offer revisionist accounts of IR’s intellectual and disciplinary history and expand the locations, genres, and practices of international thinking. Systematically structured, and focusing in particular on Black diasporic, Anglo-American, and European historical women, it does more than “add women” to the existing intellectual and disciplinary histories from which they were erased. Instead, it raises fundamental questions about which kinds of subjects and what kind of thinking constitutes international thought, opening new vistas to scholars and students of international history and theory, intellectual history and women’s and gender studies. patricia owens is Professor of International Relations and Fellow of Somerville College at the University of Oxford.
