Music Industry's Turbulent Relation with Streaming: Political Economy of Spotify
Saygın, Tahsin Mert; Çakmur, Barış; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2022-12-30)
Amidst the advent of digital technologies and increasing Internet use, there have been fundamental changes in how (popular) music is produced, distributed, licensed, and consumed in the 21st century. This thesis provides an overall picture of the process that resulted in recording industry revenues rising above the year in which they began to decline and makes the most important actor of this process – Spotify – its subject of study within the political economy framework.

Everyday tactics of youth coping with socio-spatial stigmatization in Şakirpaşa, Adana
Atmaca, Mustafa Çağlar; Şengül, Hüseyin Tarık; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2017)
In this thesis, I examine the effects of socio-spatial stigmatization and economic exclusion, and the coping strategies of youths exposed to these conditions.

In this thesis, I object two dominant approaches that romanticize/dramatize or criminalize the poverty-related symptoms such as crime, violence etc. The common point of both approaches is to accep...

Beyond youth participation researches conducted with young people living in urban areas, I decided to conduct the research in Mardin/South-ea...
EXPERIMENTS ON THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN PERDE AND SEYIR IN TURKISH MAKAM MUSIC
Akkoc, Can; Sethares, William A.; Karaosmanoglu, M. Kemal (University of California Press, 2015-04-01)
"WHEN I WAS A KID, THE ELDERS IN THE VILLAGE COULD TELL THE MAKAM OF A PIECE JUST BY LISTENING." While interviewing performers, enthusiasts, and experts in traditional Turkish taksims (improvisations), variations of this comment were made many times. Some of the respondents claimed to be able to identify the makam of a taksim, but others believed that this ability might now be a lost art. This paper documents a series of experiments (based on caricaturized or skeletonized taksim-like creations) designed to ...
An Attempt of measuring art taste of a group of music students in Ankara
Eren, Ozan; Topal, Çağatay; Department of Sociology (2013)
Since its publication in 1984, Pierre Bourdieu’s prominent work called Distinction has been admired, imitated and discussed. Based on the research question of how tastes are shaped within relation to cultural capital, social capital and economic capital, this study aims to develop a descriptive analysis to measure different tastes of baglama students, regularly attending an urban–based music house, in Kızılay, Ankara. In order to trace the original study conducted by Bourdieu in 1980s to measure the tastes ...
