Abstract:
Bu çalışmada işyerinde sosyal diyaloğu sağlamada önemli görevleri olan işyeri sendika temsilcilerinin sorunları araştırılmıştır. Bu amaçla Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren iki konfederasyona üye olan sendikalardaki işyeri sendika temsilcileri ile 2012-2017 yılları arasında odak grup mülakat ve derinlemesine mülakat yapılmıştır. Çok farklı işkollarından olan bu temsilcilerin belirtmiş oldukları sorunlar, temsilcilerin işyerinde ortaya çıkan sorunları nasıl çözdükleri hakkında ipuçları vermektedir. Çalışmada temsilcilerin davranışları kuramsal olarak iki ana başlık altında incelenmiştir. Bu başlıklar çatışmacı yaklaşım çerçevesinde işçilerin hakları için mücadele eden temsilciler ile yapısalcı kuram başlığı altında işverenle uzlaşan ve diyaloğu esas alan temsilcilerdir. Bu çalışmanın bulguları sayesinde Türkiye için işyerinde demokratik çalışma ortamının daha iyi nasıl kurulabileceği ve sendikal kararların tabandan karar alıcılara doğru nasıl etki edebileceği yönünde öneriler yapılabilir. | In this study, the problems of union stewards who have important roles in ensuring social dialogue in the workplace were investigated. For this purpose, focus group and in-depth interviews were conducted with workplace union stewards who are the representatives of two labour confederations in Turkey between 2012 and 2017. The problems expressed by these union stewards from many different branches of activity have been given some clues about how the union stewards sort out the problems that arise in the workplace. The behaviours of the workplace union stewards were theoretically examined under two main approaches in this study. These are the representatives who struggle for the rights of workers within the framework of the confrontational approach and representatives who compromise with the employer under the structuralist theory and take dialogue as basis. Thanks to findings of this study, suggestions can be made that how to establish a democratic working environment in the workplace and how trade union decisions can create an impact from shop floor to decision makers in Turkey.

Abstract:
Ülkemizde sivil toplum kuruluşları niceliksel olarak her geçen gün artış gösterse de niteliksel anlamda gelişim aynı paralellikte artmamaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, Mor Çatı Vakfı’nı çağdaş sivil toplum anlayışı ilkeleri çerçevesinde değerlendirmektir. Araştırma kapsamında Haziran 2019’da yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme formu yaklaşımıyla bir Mor Çatı gönüllüsüyle ve ardından Temmuz 2020’de 3 Mor Çatı gönüllüsüyle bir uzaktan görüşme programı aracılığıyla odak grup görüşmesi yapılmıştır. Görüşme metinleri incelendiğinde bulgular 3 başlık altında sınıflandırılmıştır: Vakfın kuruluşu, amacı ve örgütlenme biçimi. Bulgulara göre Mor Çatı, hukuki ilkeler çerçevesinde özerk halde örgütlenen, meşru bir kuruluştur. Kâr amacı güden bir kuruluş değildir ve kamu yararına olacak çalışmalarda bulunmaktadır. Karar alma ve uygulama noktasında iç işleyişinde bağımsızdır. Hedefleri doğrultusunda ülkenin yasama ve yürütme araçlarını etkileyerek politika üretme noktasında başarılıdır. Faaliyetlerini yürütürken şiddet ve zor kullanmama ilkesi ile hareket etmektedir. Kurum hakkında bilgi almak isteyen bireylere karşı şeffaf davranmaktadır. Toplumsal farklılıklara ve çeşitliliğe karşı hoş görülüdür. Kamuoyu oluşturabilmektedir ancak köklü bir geçmişe sahip bir örgütlenme için aktif gönüllü sayısı azdır.

63. Policy Change for the Displaced Kurds in Turkey: Europeanization and Conditionality

Abstract:
International and regional organizations can act as persuasive actors with re- gard to minority rights in a given country by raising awareness, putting the issue on agenda, and endorsing a new platform in a country which may lead to a policy change. Despite the general observation that Turkey’s Europeanizati- on process has had limited impact on the minority issues in Turkey, there are numerous examples that the European Union (EU) has played a constructive role in improving of rights and fundamental freedoms for the Kurdish populace living in Turkey. The Law on Compensation for Damage Arising from Terror passed in 2004 is a case worth addressing in order to ascertain both the symbo- lic and discursive policy change. The aim of this article is to explain how the EU used democratic tools to promote change in Turkey’s political structure for the displaced Kurds. The Europeanization of Turkey, based on specific con- ditionality, is taken as primarily responsible for granted for the shift and the policy change. In this policy-oriented case study, hypotheses from Rationalist and Constructivist Approaches in Europeanization literature are investigated to explain the causes and constitutive relations of the policy shift from repudiate to compensation.

Abstract:
This article reviews existing comparative literature on Iran and Turkey in terms of their approaches, themes and findings. It extracts and critically analyses two dominant trends in this literature; Comparative Analyses of Cultures and Comparative Analyses of Modernizations. This paper argues that, these two common lines of approaching have serious limitations since they carry the traces of orientalist and ethnocentric assumptions. New literature on this topic however, offers new avenues of research, enabling the debate to avoid the above mentioned pitfalls. As a conclusion, this critical review points to certain dynamics to consider (over-politicization of the Iran-Turkey comparisons and the impact of international developments) in order to facilitate stronger comparative frameworks.

Abstract:
The issue of rapprochement with Kurdish parties in the Northern Iraq turned a discursive battlefield between Turkish Armed Forces (TAF) and the ruling Justice Development Party (AKP) after the 2005 General Elections in Iraq from which Kurdish groups emerged as a strong political actor in Iraqi politics. When the AKP government declared its policy of rapprochement with the Kurdish regional government at the beginning of 2007, the then Chief of General Staff Yaşar Büyükanıt publicly criticized and rejected this new policy. Büyükanıt declined to talk with Kurdish leaders on the grounds that they were supporting for the PKK. This exchange of statements was the part of a political snowball rolling to which other areas of the struggle were included. The rift between the AKP government and the TAF over how to deal with Iraqi Kurds started just as Turkey gears up for key presidential elections. This paper will attempt to analyze the battle over the Northern Iraq between the TAF and the AKP in order to answer the following questions: How the TAF and the AKP came face to face on the issue of the Northern Iraq? Under what conditions the Northern Iraq turned a discursive battlefield between the TAF and the AKP? What was the function of the Northern Iraq in the domestic power struggle between the TAF and the AKP?

Abstract:
The “Promulgation of Freedom” on 23 July 1908 paved the way to the Second Constitutional Period. A clear ideological change occurred in this 10 years period that lasted in 1918. This shift in ideology was a transition from “Islamic-Turkish Synthesis” of Abdülhamid II’s reign to the “Turkish-Islamic Synthesis.” The Committee of Union and Progress could have put into practice “Turkish nationalism” or “militant secularism” as the Republican People’s Party did after 1924 when they took the power after the coup of 23 January 1913. However the Balkan Wars and the World War I enforced them to postpone their will. On the contrary they made use of Islam as a unifying and mobilizing source of power and tried to build Turkish identity between the lines in the education system. That is why, as a result of these circumstances, “Militarist nationalism” and “Militarist Turkish-Islamic Synthesis” came into agenda in the Second Constitutional Period.

67. What Happened on the Mavi Marmara? An Analysis of the Turkel Commission Report

Abstract:
On 31 May 2010, Israeli commandos killed nine Turkish citizens aboard the Mavi Marmara, the flagship vessel of a humanitarian flotilla headed for besieged Gaza. The Israeli attack evoked international outrage, which caused Israel to appoint an official commission of inquiry chaired by former Israeli Supreme Court Judge Jacob Turkel. In January 2011, the Turkel Commission released a 300 page report that allegedly established what happened in the course of the Israeli assault. In fact, and unsurprisingly, the report was a grotesque whitewash of Israeli actions. Nonetheless this mendacious report effectively shielded Israel from further international scrutiny. A panel of inquiry created by UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon to resolve differences between Turkey and Israel over the Mavi Marmara killings “fully associated itself” - in the bitter words of the Turkish representative on the panel - with the the Turkel report’s findings. To date, no independent researcher has exposed in detail the dishonesty and fraud of the Turkel report. The purpose of my article is to fill this gap.

Abstract:
The construction of identity is one of the determinant factors in constructing a valid individual and social world, for identities are constructed both individually and socially. Identities through the demarcation of political boundaries the internalization of the essential dissimilarity of the other is created and the theoretical underpinning of actual practices is formulated. In addition, it always requires a politicized society. The construction processes of identity in Turkish society have always functioned as a dynamic of political change. In fact, policy formed around identity politics has always been an essential determining factor on political, and in general, on the social structure from Ottoman to modern times. At turning points in the history of societies, changes in the issue of identity also occur. The developments that took place under the partiality for Westernization and in the post-1980 neo-liberal process exhibit variations in the identity construction of the Turkish community. In this study, the politics and sociology of identity will be discussed in relation to the formulations of identity from the time of Ottoman Turkey to the modern Turkish Republic.

Abstract:
The role of the military in the politics in the developing or socalled “Third World” countries has always been fundamental in order to comprehend the historical process of democratization movements in these countries. To be able to fully grasp the politics, particularly democratic transitions, in the Middle East, it is indispensable to look at the role of the military within the transition process. However, because the democratic transition processes involves different practices, in my research paper, I will focus on the role of military within the constitution-making processes in order to narrow down my research. I have chosen the constitution-making process because, as argued by Özbudun, constitution-making, especially during democratic transitions, is an excellent opportunity to build political institutions that will enjoy broad support from society and its political elites. Both the constitution-making process and its outcome are crucial aspects of the transition to and consolidation of democracy. In this regard, in this study, I have chosen to study Egypt and Turkey comparatively in terms of their military involvement in the constitution making process. It should be noted that in both Turkey and Egypt, previous constitutions were made directly by the military or under military influence through various means, which I will evaluate in my research paper in detailed way. I have chosen these two countries due to two reasons. My initial inspiration is derived from that currently, these two significant countries of the region are in the constitution-making process. When we look at current situation of Turkey, it can be argued that Turkey is in constitution-making process, which is supposed to be totally civilian without the influence of the military. On the other hand, in terms of Egypt, it is argued that following to the Arab Spring, Egypt’s new constitution will be the roadmap to a second republic that most Egyptians hope will be free from the tyranny, corruption, and nepotism, which were the trademarks of Egypt’s political life. The second reason is that despite the fact that Egypt and Turkey differ from each other in terms of longevity of their democratic experiences, the militaries of two countries demonstrate some core similarities, which is noteworthy in terms of comparing the two. Considering all of these, the aim of this study is to see how the military can be a part of the political system, especially in the making of constitution, and to understand the current situation and changing position of the militaries in these countries.

Abstract:
This study deals with the relationship between the current account deficit and the budget deficit in Turkey. Artificial Neural Networks are employed to investigate this relationship. According to the results of the application the twin deficits hypothesis which indicates a positive correlation between the two deficits isn’t valid in Turkey. As this paper tries to analyze the factors accounting for the absence of this kind of correlation, it develops a flexible understanding which doesn’t refuse a hypothesis or a theory (the twin deficits hypothesis) completely, on the contrary, emphasizes the importance of investigating the conditions in which a hypothesis, theory or a model is valid.

Abstract:
By being a country that enhanced its foreign trade volume two times between the years 1990-1999 and four times between the years of 2000-2008, Turkey has enhanced its business connection with EU countries approximately three times and this increase was in favor of volume of imports. After 2001 economic crisis, in foreign trade operations which goods for industry sector distinguish particularly, raw materials and consumer goods have been preferred. However, despite these developments, the share of EU countries in Turkeys total foreign trade has been declining proportionately. It can be said that "the zero-problem policy with neighbors" that Turkey has put into effect is likely to have a considerable role in this decline.

Abstract:
In Turkish political life, social-democratic practice has been materialized in the experience of The Republican People's Party. However the relationship between social democracy and the Republican People's Party is contradicted with the foundational principles of this Party. Social democracy is a political ideology which is based on people's demands. But the populism of the Republican People's Party aims to determine people's demands. The state holds the political which should be holded by people. The Republican People's Party's social-democratic practice that begins in 1960s has not been coherent with the line of the Socialist International. The Republican People's Party could not follow the transformation of social-democratic ideology on the one hand and it has also been failed in following the political environment of global capitalism. If the Republican People's Party insists on the foundational principles, it seems very difficult for the Republican People's Party to become a real social democratic party.

Abstract:
Bu makalede çağımızda “refah devleti” ve “sosyal devlet” anlayışlarının egemenlik kazanmasından sonra nasıl geleneksel “kerim devlet” anlayışına dönüldüğü ele alınmaktadır. Osmanlı örneğinde geleneksel dünyagörüşüne göre adil devlet, kısaca tebaasının geçimini, kerim devlet ise bakımını üstlenen devleti belirtir. XIX. asırda yükselen sanayi kapitalizminin derinleştirdiği sosyal eşitsizlik, devletin meşruiyet kazanmak için tekrar refah misyonunu üstlenmesini gerektirdi. XX. asırda revaç bulan refah devleti, geleneksel “adil devlet,” temelde ikinci kuşak insan haklarının sağlanmasını hedef edinen sosyal devlet ise “kerim devlet”in çağımızdaki karşılıkları sayılabilirlerdi. Ancak aslında moral ekonomi çağına özgü bu devlet modellerinin modern çağa özgü kapitalist mantıkça zorlanması üzerine başlıca feminist düşünürler tarafından vatandaşların hem geçim ve temelde vakıflar gibi sivil toplum kuruluşları sayesinde bakımlarının üstlenildiği, hem de kimliklerinin tanındığı inâî, yani “kerim devlet” modeli tekrar gündeme getirilmiştir.

Abstract:
En az bir buçuk yüzyıldan beri Türkiye‟de siyasal politikaların ve söylemin sıklet noktasını pozitivist bakış açısının oluşturduğu söylenebilir. Ancak erken denebilecek bir zamanda Türkiye‟ye giren pozitivizmin en belirgin özelliği felsefi derinlikten yoksun olması ve buna bağlı olarak siyasal alanda verimli bir izinin bulunmamasıdır. Çalışmada bunun nedenleri incelenmektedir. Bilim geleneğinin olmaması yanında herhalde bunun en önemli nedeni siyasal kaygıların daima ön planda olmasıdır; ülkenin “beka” problemine yoğunlaşan İttihat ve Terakki temsilcileri için bilimin “açıklayıcılığı” değil, “kurtarıcılığı” önemlidir. Pozitivizmin daha genel olarak bilim-siyaset ilişkisinin Batıdakinin tersi yönde şekillenmesi, yani bilimin siyasetin emrine koşul(landırıl)ması, bilimin popüler şeklinin cazip hale gelmesine yol açmıştır. Daha sonraki dönemlerde aynı mantalitenin geçerli olduğunu söylemek mümkündür.

Abstract:
Tarihsel bir süreç içinde sivil ve askeri yöneticilerin alanlarının birbirinden ayrılmasından sonra sivil-asker ilişkilerinde sivil kontrolün oluşturulması konusunda zorluklarla karşılaşılmıştır. Liberal demokrasiler bu soruna çözümler üretmişlerdir, fakat bu çözümler doğaları gereği başka sorunlara yol açmıştır. Liberal demokrasinin ordu-sivil ilişkileri alanındaki geçmişi, bir yanda orduların etkin işlemesi için gereken özgünlüğü ve ulusal güvenlik, diğer yanda ordunun halkın seçilmiş temsilcilerine itaati ve demokrasi arasında bir denge kurma mücadelesidir. Çalışmanın vardığı sonuç, sivil kontrolün oluşturulması ve sürdürülmesinin asla orduyu kısıtlamaya yönelik, tek taraflı bir hareket olmadığıdır. Sivil kontrol, orduyu genel ulusal kurumlar sistemiyle bütünleştirmek, sorumluluk alanını mümkün olduğunca açık bir şekilde tarif etmek amacına yönelik bir karşılıklı taviz vermedir. Bir demokraside sağlıklı sivil kontrol tesis etmek için kesin anayasal güvencelerin yanında yerleşmiş, kurumsallaşmış demokratik gelenekler de gereklidir.
