This thesis analyzes the effects of multiculturalism on women and children. Although multiculturalism was promoted and implemented in many liberal states, it has created severe discussions. Accordingly, this study focuses on the problems of multiculturalism and their impact on the vulnerable group members. The thesis will discuss theoretical positions together with several controversial examples. Based on these discussions this study argues that women and children have become the victims of multiculturalism.

Reconstruction of female subjectivity in Turkey: neoconservatism and imam-hatip schools Ataç, Alara; Ayata, Ayşe; Department of Gender and Women's Studies (2019) From feminist perspective, this thesis attempts to analyze how female subjectivity has been reconstructed through education of Imam-Hatip schools under the impacts of neoconservative ideology since 2002. It is critical to understand rising power of neoconservatism and its impacts on Turkish women, especially after the AKP came into power. The party has developed neoconservatism as new political ideology as counter to secular-Republican ideology, and launched the Islamization project. In this case, the party...
German conservatism and its impact on Turkey's membership debate Alioğlu, Özlem; Eralp, Yakup Atila; Department of European Studies (2010) This thesis aims to analyze German Conservatism and the impact of Germany’s policies towards Turkey’s membership. The point of departure is privileged partnership which is offered to Turkey in replace of membership to the EU. German Chancellor Angela Merkel is a prominent defender of privileged partnership and previous Chancellor Gerhard Schröder who supported Turkey’s accession, had a totally different attitude. It is questioned whether this sharp change in foreign policy derives from German Conservatism a...
The young ottomans’ approaches toward economic liberalism (1860-1875) Top, Gözde; Orbay, Kayhan; Department of History (2019) This thesis aims to examine the approaches toward economic liberalism of three members of the Young Ottoman Society (1860-1875); Namık Kemal, Ali Suavi, and Ziya Pasha who actively contributed to the development of the new literary area, newspapers in the Tanzimat period. The thesis tries to show that these intellectuals adopted a cautous stance toward economic liberalism which was the developing economic policy in Western Europe at that time. Although they fully supported the very cause of political libera...
Global governmentality of international migration: case of Turkey Zeytin, Elif; Yalvaç, Faruk; Department of International Relations (2017) This thesis examines how neoliberal globalization shapes the policies concerning international migration. With the help of the global governmentality approach of Jonathan Joseph, ‘migration management’ discourse is elaborated as the stimulation of a broader process of ‘management’ of human mobility through governmental interventions on the state behaviors. In particular, re-conceptualization of international migration as a global policy issue in the effective migration management framework is evaluated as t...
Hearing and remembering the voices of women in the Turkish nation building process: Kadinlar Dünyası and Türk Kadın Yolu Uçak, Deniz; Çıtak Aytürk, Zana Ayşe; Department of International Relations (2018) This thesis examines the relationship between nationalism and gender with a particular focus on the making of Turkish nationalism and women, based on the analysis of two women’s periodicals: Kadınlar Dünyası and Türk Kadın Yolu. While the former was published in the latest stage of the Ottoman period between 1913 and 1921, coinciding with the emergence and rise of Turkish nationalism, the latter was published after the foundation of the Republic between 1925 and 1927. Accordingly, this thesis tries to under...
