Religion, Ethnicity and Transnationalism: Turkish Islam in Belgium Çıtak Aytürk, Zana Ayşe (Oxford University Press (OUP), 2011-03-01)
Gender Climate in Authoritarian Politics: A Comparative Study of Russia and Turkey Dogangun, Gokten (Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2020-03-01) In Russia and Turkey, the pro-authoritarian regimes have largely relied on nationalistic narratives appealing to cultural authenticity, tradition, and religion for legitimacy and cultural resonance at the mass level. Within this narrative, as it is argued, traditional notions of family and femininity are endorsed so as to represent national power against the West and to invigorate social unity and morality in Russian and Turkish societies. The revival of traditional gender norms and patterns that characteri...
Transformed landscapes and a transnational identity of class: Narratives on (post-)industrial landscapes in Europe Meier, Lars; Aytekin, Erden Attila (SAGE Publications, 2019-01-01) Based on 222 qualitative interviews conducted through a large ethnographic research project on transformed industrial landscapes in six countries, the main argument of the article is threefold.

The article places a special emphasis on how the post-1980 neoliberal turn has shaped the policy orientation of successive governments, and transformed the nature of child poverty and youth unemployment in Turkey, making t...
International Perspectives on the State-as-Parent: Naive Idealism or Reluctant Pragmatism Dixon, John; Welbourne, Penelope (Wiley, 2016-03-01) Too many children remain at risk of harm, regrettably, in all too many societies. This is despite the almost universal acceptance of the 1990 United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). Its intention, arguably somewhat naively, is to create two state imperatives: to protect children against threats of harm; and to advance their welfare. Governments, however, have evidenced a pragmatic reluctance to meet these challenges, perhaps a product of conflicting community expectations on the approp...
