  • Culture, Politics and Contested Identity Among the “Kurdish” Alevis of Dersim: the Case of the Munzur Culture and Nature Festival
    Journal of Ethnic and Cultural Studies Copyright 2019 2019, Vol. 6, No. 1, 63-76 ISSN: 2149-1291 Culture, Politics and Contested Identity among the “Kurdish” Alevis of Dersim: The Case of the Munzur Culture and Nature Festival Ülker Sözen1 Netherlands Institute in Turkey This article analyzes the Munzur Culture and Nature Festival organized by the people of Dersim, an eastern province of Turkey, as a site of political activism, cultural reproduction, and intra-group contestation. The festival began as a group- remaking event for restoring cultural identity, defending locality, and mobilizing Dersimli people in the face of political repression. In time, socio-spatial and political fragmentation within Dersimli society became more prevalent. The festival experience came to reflect and contribute to the debates and anxieties about identity whereby different political groups competed to increase their influence over local politics as well as the event itself. On the one hand, this article discusses the organization of the Munzur Festival, its historical trajectory, and the accompanying public debates and criticisms. On the other, it explores festive sociabilities, cultural performances, and the circulation of politically-charged symbols throughout the event which showcases the articulation and competition of multiple ethno-political belongings which are the Dersimli, Kurdish, Alevi, and socialist ones. The festival’s historical trajectory is dealt as two stages, unified struggle and internal strife, whereby the festival appeared as first a group-remaking then unmaking public event. The paper argues that this transformation is tied to hanging power relations in the local politics of Dersim, and the shifting state policies, namely the phase of repressive control strategies until the mid-2000s and the peace process and political relaxation until 2015.

  • Forced Evacuations and Destruction of Villages in Dersim (Tunceli), and Western Bingöl, Turkish Kurdistan September-November 1994
    FORCED EVACUATIONS AND DESTRUCTION OF VILLAGES IN DERSIM (TUNCELI), AND WESTERN BINGÖL, TURKISH KURDISTAN SEPTEMBER-NOVEMBER 1994 INTRODUCTION This report details the wave of village evacuations and demolitions, as well as the forest fires that swept across the Dersim region in Turkey, i.e., the province of Tunceli and neighbouring districts, during the autumn of 1994.1 Over a period of two months, around a third of the villages in that province (but in some subdistricts as many as 80 to 100 percent) were evacuated under severe military pressure, and many of them were destroyed and burned down by the army. Thousands of families lost their houses. Moreover large stretches of forest, that only recently had been designated as a nature reserve, were deliberately burnt down. The rationale for all this destruction was the presence of guerrillas of the PKK (Kurdistan Workers' Party), believed to be hiding out in the forests of this province. The inhabitants of the destroyed villages were suspected of giving food and shelter to these guerrillas. Tunceli was not the first province to fall victim to large-scale village evacuations orchestrated by Turkish security forces. The first instances of forced village evacuations in recent years took place in the 1980s, and since 1992 evacuations followed by demolition have been standard practice in sensitive zones of Turkey's Kurdish-inhabited provinces. The Human Rights Associations of Turkey have repeatedly published lists of villages that had been evacuated and destroyed, adding up to well over 2000 names of villages and hamlets. The present report concentrates on the events in Tunceli.

  • Turkey's Presidential System After Two and a Half Years. an Overview Of
    SWP Research Paper Sinem Adar and Günter Seufert Turkey’s Presidential System after Two and a Half Years An Overview of Institutions and Politics Stiftung Wissenschaft und Politik German Institute for International and Security Affairs SWP Research Paper 2 April 2021, Berlin Abstract ∎ Turkey’s new Presidential System has failed to realise the goals that it was said to achieve with its introduction despite the disapproval of half the population. ∎ Contrary to the ruling party’s claims in favour of the new governance system, two and a half years after its introduction, parliament is weaker, separation of powers is undermined, the judiciary is politicised, institu- tions are crippled, economic woes are mounting and authoritarian prac- tices prevail. ∎ Despite the almost unlimited and unchecked power that the new system grants to the President over institutions, his space for political manoeuvre is, surprisingly, narrower than it was in the parliamentary system. ∎ Providing the otherwise divided opposition a joint anchor of resistance, the Presidential System unintentionally breathed life into the inertia of Turkey’s political party setting. ∎ The formation of splinter parties from the ruling party, primarily address- ing the same conservative electorate, alongside the changing electoral logic with the need to form alliances to win an election, poses a serious challenge to the ruling party and its leader – the President. ∎ Despite the oppositional alliance’s electoral victory in 2019 local elec- tions, it is at the moment unclear whether the forming parties share a common vision for steps towards democratic repair. ∎ Together with the institutional havoc caused by the Presidential System, the blurry outlook of the opposition requires caution about an easy and rapid positive transformation.

  • URGENT ACTION SYRIAN REFUGEES at RISK of BEING RETURNED Around 100 Refugees from Syria Are at Risk of Being Returned to the War-Torn City of Kobani/Ayn Al-Arab
    UA: 260/14 Index: EUR 44/018/2014 Turkey Date: 17 October 2014 URGENT ACTION SYRIAN REFUGEES AT RISK OF BEING RETURNED Around 100 refugees from Syria are at risk of being returned to the war-torn city of Kobani/Ayn Al-Arab. They are part of a group of over 250 men, women and children from Kobani who have been unlawfully detained by the Turkish authorities in a sports hall since 5 October in the border town of Suruç in Turkey’s south-eastern Şanlıurfa province. Of this group, two sets of returns have taken place on October 14 and 16. According to information received from lawyers who visited the refugees and from one of the detainees, a total of over 250 Syrians (including up to 30 children), were detained on and around 5 to 6 October after being denied permission for 24 hours to enter Turkey at the Mürşitpınar border gate. They were fleeing the city of Kobani/Ayn Al-Arab where armed clashes are currently taking place between the armed group that calls itself the Islamic State (IS) and the People’s Defence Units (YPG), the armed group of the Syrian Kurdish Democratic Union Party (PYD), which has controlled Kobani since July 2012. The group of at least 250 refugees has been held in a sports hall, with only blankets to sleep on and no washing facilities. The Governor of Şanlıurfa province reportedly told lawyers on 10 October that the refugees were being held in “administrative supervision ahead of deportation” under Article 57 of the Law on Foreigners and International Protection.

  • Diversity of Bulbous Monocots in Turkey with Special Reference
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 74, No. 4, pp. 547–555, 2002. © 2002 IUPAC Diversity of bulbous monocots in Turkey with special reference. Chromosome numbers* Neriman Özhatay‡ University of Istanbul, Faculty of Pharmacy, Department of Pharmaceutical Botany, 34452 Ístanbul, Turkey Abstract: Turkey is among the richest countries in the world in terms of plant diversity. The aim of this paper is to show diversity of the petaloid and bulbous plants, which belong to monocotyledones. According to Flora of Turkey and its supplements, the number of species of bulbous monocotyledones is around 688, of which 244 are endemic (endemism 35.4 %). According to the statistical data of Turkish flowering plants based on the published records, only 15 % of the flora have information about chromosome counts, although bulbous mono- cots percentage is higher at 58 %. Fritillaria and Tulipa are stable genera as regards chro- mosome numbers with 2n = 24 and karyotype; on the other hand, the most variable genera are Crocus (2n = 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22, 26, 28, 30, 70) and Ornithogalum (2n = 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 21, 24, 27, 28, 32, 40, 45, 54, 60, 80). INTRODUCTION Turkey covers 779.452 km2, of which 3 % lies in European Turkey (Thrace), the remainder in Asian Turkey (Anatolia). With around 9000 species, the flora is the richest of any country in Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East, and indeed is more typical of a continent or tropical country than an indi- vidual temperate country. Of these, nearly one in every three plants is endemic, an astonishingly high percentage for a mainland country (Table 1).
