This study analyzes the ‘other(s)’ in the discourse of Kemalist women through
a discourse analysis oi Kadin Gazetesi (1947-1979), a woman magazine published by
the Kemalist women. The representation of the inferior and undesii'ed ‘others’ in
Kadin Gazetesi will be examined. The thesis also aims to discuss the role of the
nationalist and Kemalist discourses in the formation of gender discourse and woman
que.stion in Turkey.
