Turkey's Internal Other: Embodiments of Taşra in The TURKEY’S INTERNAL OTHER: EMBODIMENTS OF TAŞRA IN THE WORKS OF ORHAN PAMUK, NURİ BİLGE CEYLAN, AND FATİH AKIN EVREN OZSELCUK A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY JOINT GRADUATE PROGRAM IN COMMUNICATION AND CULTURE YORK UNIVERSITY TORONTO, ONTARIO May 2015 © Evren Ozselcuk, 2015 ABSTRACT In Turkey, the concept of taşra connotes much more than its immediate spatial meaning as those places outside of the city center(s). Its extensive circulation as a trope that indicates externality to modernity is inextricably linked to the specific configurations of the project of Turkish modernization. In this dissertation, I draw from the insights of postcolonial theory and psychoanalysis to develop a novel conceptualization of taşra, through which I interpret Turkey’s complicated relationship to modernity and its status within the new global order. I argue that a close analysis of the dominant discourses on taşra is revealing, for it constitutes one primary site where the predicaments and contradictions of Turkish modernization and national identity-constitution are played out, where collective anxieties around these issues continue to be projected and managed. In my analysis of these discourses, I adopt a deconstructive rather than a corrective approach: my objective is not to reveal what taşra “really” is but what work it is made to do. The contemporary cinematic and literary texts that I engage with in this study are the Nobel Laureate Orhan Pamuk’s memoir Istanbul: Memories and the City (2005), Turkish-German director Fatih Akın’s documentary Crossing the Bridge: The Sound of Istanbul (2005) and three films by the pioneer of the new genre of taşra films in Turkey, Nuri Bilge Ceylan—namely Climates (2006), Three Monkeys (2008) and Once Upon a Time in Anatolia (2011). Through close readings of these texts, I illustrate how each complicates, affirms and/or expands received understandings of taşra that celebrate and/or denounce it as being culturally, spatially and temporally external to modernity. ii DEDICATION To my father Mehmet Erdinç Özselçuk (1936-2015) who waited enough to see me through. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS The completion of this dissertation would not be possible if it were not for the continued support and encouragement of many people. My supervisor, Monique Tschofen, has been an amazing mentor. Frankly, I cannot find adequate words to describe her formative contributions, over many years, to my intellectual and professional development. I am inspired by her commitment to rigorous thinking and sharp analysis, by her ability to offer guidance and support with such incredible precision and promptness. Her sustained faith in my work, her care and generosity are true gifts for which I will continue to be grateful. I want to thank Sedef Arat-Koç not only for her thoughtful comments and careful interventions into the project, but also for the vigorous conversations I had with her about Turkish politics, films, TV shows, books and about life in general. I am thankful to Paul Antze for his insightful questions about the project at each and every committee meeting. Nima Naghibi extended her support during the early stages of the project. I also want to thank Angelica Fenner and Amila Buturovic for graciously agreeing to serve as members of my defense committee. Outside of my committee, I also would like to thank Jody Berland and Nalini Persram in whose seminars I first started to formulate the main ideas of this dissertation. I am grateful to Anne MacLennan for supporting my proposal for a senior seminar that drew from my dissertation research and for making it possible for me to teach it at York in 2012-2013. Special thanks to Diane Jenner and Stephanie Margetts who made sure, all through my M.A. and Ph.D. in the Communication and Culture Program at York, that no administrative question I had remained unresolved. iv I am indebted to my interlocutors Greg Flemming, Matt Flisfeder and Concetta Principe in the weekly reading group through 2008-2010. Sheila Koenig, Sarah Sharma, Craig Medows, Kara Peet and Paul Telford are friends and intellectual comrades who sustained me during my graduate studies and made life fulfilling and less difficult with their love, care, and ideas. I am thankful also to friends in Istanbul, especially to Seda Kalem, Enis Rıza, Ebru Şeremetli, Bahriye Kabadayı Dal, Nalân Sakızlı and İlker Ataç. My deepest thanks go to my confidant Erkan Erçel for his continuous collegiality and for cheering me on in my endeavors. I would also like to thank friends in my new home in Columbia, South Carolina: Susan Courtney, Bob Bohl, Rebecca Stern, Nina Levine, Catherine Keyser, Paul Famolari, Agnes Mueller and Nicholas Vazsonyi. My sister Ceren Özselçuk enriches my life with her intellectual dynamism and marvelous wit. I cannot thank her enough for all her intellectual, emotional and financial support that has kept me sane through my graduate studies. I am grateful to my parents İnci and Erdinç Özselçuk. They have shown much patience and understanding all along this long process. Finally, I want to express my immeasurable gratitude to Greg Forter without whose love, support and encouragement this dissertation would not have materialized. He listened without complaint to my ramblings and helped me find my way through knotted ideas. Each time my writing felt like closing down on itself, he led me towards whole new paths. Scrupulously, he read and commented on every page of every draft. But above all else, with his sheer presence in my life, he has imbued all experience with a touch of glory. v TABLE OF CONTENTS Abstract ii Dedication iii Acknowledgements iv Table of Contents vi Introduction 1 I.

Sight and Smell 178 Afterword 190 Works Cited 196 vii INTRODUCTION It is difficult to think seriously about modern Turkey without invoking the concept of taşra. It has been the object of state policies and a domain of struggle for political power; it has intrigued numerous novelists, poets and filmmakers; it has been the explicit subject and/or the constitutive background of popular songs and hit TV series; it has served as a condescending shorthand to indicate a particular kind of cultural difference coded as unmodern or anti-modern. And yet, this oversaturated concept with conflicting significations has a relatively short history. It was only at the end of the nineteenth century that taşra, a term used to describe administrative regions outside the centers—a term that indicated provinces—started to connote much more than this immediate meaning. Notably, the term’s transformation coincides with the beginning of a process of reformation and modernization in the Ottoman Empire, which at the time was trying to resist the threat of European colonialism (Laçiner, 2005; Alkan, 2005). In this sense, the making of taşra is inextricably linked to the specific configuration of modernity and modernization in Turkey.1 It is precisely in this respect that a close analysis of the discourses on taşra is revealing, for it constitutes one primary site where dilemmas and predicaments of Turkish modernization and national identity-constitution are played out, where collective anxieties around these issues continue to be projected and managed. My dissertation is an extended reflection on contemporary cinematic and literary engagements with this concept. My primary texts are the Nobel Laureate Orhan Pamuk’s 1 Here is perhaps the place to note that the term “taşra” was not always equally central to defining the distinction between center and periphery. For earlier conceptions, see especially Hanioğlu (2008); Barkey (2008); Quataert (2000). 1 memoir Istanbul: Memories and the City (2005 [2003]), Turkish-German director Fatih Akın’s documentary Crossing the Bridge: The Sound of Istanbul (2005) and three films by the pioneer of the new genre of taşra films in Turkey, Nuri Bilge Ceylan—namely Climates (2006), Three Monkeys (2008) and Once Upon a Time in Anatolia (2011). Through close readings of these texts, I illustrate how each complicates, affirms and/or expands received understandings of taşra that cherish and/or denounce it as being culturally, spatially and temporally external to modernity. This is a project that is inspired by and builds upon some recent intellectual deliberations in Turkey that take a poststructuralist approach to thinking about taşra. My reflections have been shaped particularly by the articles that appeared in 2005 in the edited volume Taşraya Bakmak (“Looking at Taşra”). Representing a variety

  • OSW COMMENTARY NUMBER 275 1 from the Period of the Late Ottoman Empire1
    Centre for Eastern Studies NUMBER 274 | 26.06.2018 www.osw.waw.pl Cadres decide everything – Turkey’s reform of its military Mateusz Chudziak Over the last two years, the Turkish Armed Forces (Türk Silahlı Kuvvetlerı – TSK) have been sub- ject to transformations with no precedent in the history of Turkey as a republic. The process of the Justice and Development Party (AKP) subordinating the army to civilian government has accelerated following the failed coup that took place on 15 July 2016. The government has managed to take away the autonomy of the armed forces which, while retaining their enor- mous significance within the state apparatus, ceased to be the main element consolidating the old Kemalist elites. However, the unprecedented scale of the purges and the introduc- tion of formal civilian control of the military are merely a prelude to a much more profound change intended to create a brand new military, one that would serve the authorities and be composed of a new type of personnel – individuals from outside the army’s traditional power base. This reflects the reshuffle of the elites that happened during AKP’s rule. However, due to the fact that the TSK are a highly complex structure and the political situation both in Turkey itself and in its neighbourhood is tense, the military needs to retain its signif- icance within the state system. Military actions are being carried out in northern Syria and in the south-eastern part of Turkey. In a situation of profound distrust between the political leadership and the military, the government is trying to impact the internal divisions within the TSK by favouring anti-Western, pro-Russian and nationalist groups.

The suspect claims he was drunk and can’t quite remember where the body was buried; field after field, they dig but discover only dirt. As the night draws on, tensions escalate, and individual stories slowly emerge from the weary small talk of the men. Nothing here is simple, and when the body is found, the real questions begin. At once epic and intimate, Ceylan’s latest explores the twisted web of truth, and the occasional kindness of lies.

  • Secularist Divide and Turkey's Descent Into Severe Polarization
    One The Islamist- Secularist Divide and Turkey’s Descent into Severe Polarization senem aydın- düzgİt n multiple different measures of polarization, Turkey today is one of Othe most polarized nations in the world.1 Deep ideological and policy- based disagreements divide its political leaders and parties; Turkish so- ciety, too, is starkly polarized on the grounds of both ideology and social distance.2 This chapter focuses on the bases and manifestations of polar- ization in Turkey, the main reasons behind its increase, and its ramifica- tions for the future of democracy and governance in the country. The current dominant cleavage between secularists and Islamists has its roots in a series of reforms intended to secularize and modernize the coun- try after the foundation of the Turkish Republic in 1923. These reforms created a deep division within Turkish society, but until the beginning of the twenty- first century, the secularist elite dominated key state institu- tions such as the military, allowing it to repress conservative groups and thus keep conflict over the soul of Turkey from coming into the open. Since 2002, however, the remarkable electoral success of Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Justice and Development Party (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi; AKP) has brought the Islamist- secularist divide to the fore. Despite the AKP’s initial moderation, several developments, including 17 Carothers-O’Donohue_Democracies Divided_i-viii_1-311.indd 17 7/24/19 10:32 AM 18 SENEM AYDIN- DÜZGI˙T the collapse of the European Union (EU) accession process, the success of polarization as an electoral strategy, and undemocratic threats from the secularist state establishment, pushed the AKP toward increasingly populist, divisive rhetoric and politics, beginning with the 2007 general elections.

  • III. Turkey's Search for Stability and Legitimacy in 2016
    european security 151 III. Turkey’s search for stability and legitimacy in 2016 michael sahlin Has Turkey, long seen as a pillar of stability in a sensitive geographical and geopolitical location, now become a source of instability and unpredicta- bility in the Middle East, for Europe and for the transatlantic community? During 2016 a combination of external geopolitical events and regime decisions accelerated trends in Turkish domestic and foreign policies, and a series of disruptive events led to several open questions regarding Turkey’s ongoing transformation. In many ways 2016 was for Turkey and its people—Turks, Kurds and others—a true annus horribilis, with a string of dramatic events and existen- tial threats shaking the country: large-scale terror attacks against civilian and military targets; a lethal coup d’état attempt followed by a massive purge of the alleged plotters as well as of a huge number of other suspected anti-regime circles in state and society; large-scale warfare between the Turkish security forces and the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK); and mil- itary involvement in northern Syria. These events and others had a highly problematic impact on the Turkish economy and on Turkey’s traditional ties with both the European Union (EU) and the United States, which in turn affected Turkey’s crisis-ridden policies and resulted in policy changes relat- ing to Syria and Iraq. At the close of 2016, therefore, events during the year (and before) had resulted in a great deal of uncertainty going forward. Further to this, the politically polarizing issue of introducing a presidential system, in breach of Turkey’s republican parliamentary tradition and within a post-coup state of emergency climate and continuing comprehensive purges, raised further questions regarding what would be the new normal in the ‘New Turkey’ conceived by President Erdoğan and his ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Dr. Fatma Gürses Kastamonu Üniversitesi, İletişim Fakültesi Gazetecilik Bölümü Öz Rock müzik, Amerika’da ve uluslararası alanda yaygınlık kazanarak kitleye ulaşan popüler bir tür olmuştur. Dünyada, çeşitli konuların tartışıldığı, yurttaşların bu tartışmalara katıldığı, müzik akımları ve gençlik hareketinin hızla yaygınlaştığı değişim yılları olan 1960’larda bu müzik türü, siyasal söylem biçimlerinin kitleselleşmesine aracı- lık etmiştir. Dünyadaki bu değişim ve özgürlükçü hareketten etkilenen Türkiye’de ise bu dönem, yurttaşın kamusal-siyasal özne olarak algılandığı, yabancı müziklerin ülkeye gi- rişinin hızlandığı, yurttaşın kendini ifade alanı bulduğu yıllardır. 12 Eylül 1980 askeri darbesi ile Türkiye’de bu özgürlükçü ortam kesintiye uğratılmış ve siyasal sistemde kök- lü değişiklikler yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma, düzen eleştirisi getiren rock müzikten etkilene- rek Türkiye’de ortaya çıkan Anadolu rock olarak adlandırılan müzik türünün temsilcile- ri olan Cem Karaca ve Barış Manço’nun, 1960-1980 yılları arasındaki söz konusu siyasal dinamikleri şarkı sözlerinde temsil etme biçimlerini incelemeye çalışacaktır. Bu iki mü- zisyenin çalışmalarını temel alarak Türkiye’de Anadolu rock müziğinin, siyasal unsurla- rı hangi söylemsel öğelerle sabitledikleri, neleri dışlayarak veya neleri bünyesine alarak söylemi inşa ettiklerini ortaya çıkarmak çalışmanın temel hedefidir.
