We would like to invite you collaboratively discuss and redefine our researches, and methodologies. We believe in the value of constructive feedback in the various stages of our researches”. (CFP of IPCC 2018) Conferences are significant spaces of knowledge production bringing variety of concerns and approaches together. This intellectual attempt carries the greatest value, as Margaret Mead* pointed out only when the shift from one-to-many/single channel communication to many-to-many/multimodal communication is taken for granted. Nowadays, in parallel to increasing number of national and international conferences, a perception about the size of the conference being in close relationship with the quality of the conferences has developed.

    MILITARY MASCULINITIES IN THE MAKING: PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY by Elif İrem Az Submitted to the Graduate School of Arts and Social Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Sabancı University Spring 2013-2014 MILITARY MASCULINITIES IN THE MAKING: PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY Approved by: Ayşe Gül Altınay..................................... (Thesis Supervisor) Ayşe Parla................................................ Ayşen Candaş.......................................... Date of Approval: 06.08.2014 © Elif İrem Az 2014 All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT MILITARY MASCULINITIES IN THE MAKING: PROFESSIONAL MILITARY EDUCATION IN CONTEMPORARY TURKEY Elif İrem Az Cultural Studies, MA Thesis, 2014 Supervisor: Ayşe Gül Altınay Keywords: military, education, masculinity, neoliberalism, Turkey. Military schools have historically been the black boxes of the Turkish Armed Forces. The subjects who make up the military and their education in military schools have largely remained outside of academic inquiry. Since the establishment of the Republic, the military has been consolidating its power over political processes, the legal system and everyday life through various coups and interventions. Yet, we witness a historical shift in political, social and cultural positionality of the military since the Ergenekon and Balyoz [Sledgehammer] trials, beginning in 2007 and 2010 respectively. Based upon participant observation, modest historical research, and in-depth interviews with former cadets of Turkish Naval High School and Turkish Naval Academy who were students between the years 2003 and 2013, this study aims to trace the links between my research participants’ narratives and the military’s falling from grace. This thesis argues that this shift ranges from internal restructuring of power in professional military education to changes in ideological, ethnic, and class composition of the military.

  • Information Literacy in Legal Education: the Case of Istanbul Bilgi University
    Information Literacy in Legal Education: The Case of Istanbul Bilgi University Sami Çukadar Istanbul Bilgi University, Istanbul, Turkey. [email protected] Kerem Kahvecioğlu Istanbul Bilgi University, Istanbul, Turkey. [email protected] Abstract: The main purpose of the law is to seek justice by solving both individual and social conflicts in society and thereby achieve peace, equality and freedom. In order to achieve this goal, the rules of law should be understood in order to be implemented and interpreted correctly. Due to the rapid changes and increase in technology and information, the concept of information literacy is becoming more crucial in every field including legal education. The aim of this paper is to examine briefly the legal information skills and legal information literacy implementations worldwide and in Turkey, and to give information about the appropriate information literacy standards for undergraduate legal education. Information literacy practices at Istanbul Bilgi University Law Faculty are specifically mentioned. Keywords: Legal information literacy, law librarianship, legal research, Istanbul Bilgi University Introduction The Internet, and developments in information technologies, is one of the greatest changes in the information arena since the invention of the printing press. Change in information media has taken place in parallel to these developments with the amount and types of information resources increasing like an avalanche. In our time, when globalization is unavoidable, knowing where and how to locate and access needed information is more important than trying to obtain all the information related to our subject. Efforts to share all kinds of information, often from unknown sources and of doubtful integrity, have resulted in difficulty in locating accurate information on the Internet in our digital world.
