Item Restricted Books; Cleaning up Freud; The Anatomy of Human Destructiveness by Erich Fromm(1974) Robinson, Paul A.Item Restricted Celladın günü(1994) Oktay, AhmetItem Open Access Critique of violence : a study of the relation between politics and violence in some modern political theories(Bilkent University, 2012) Altunok, GülbanuThis thesis aims at understanding the relationship between violence and politics in twentieth century political thought. To this end, the study looks at the works of selected thinkers and suggests a threefold categorization of existing approaches: a ‘non-problematization of the relationship between violence and politics’ exemplified in the liberal-democratic paradigm, a ‘nonproblematization of violence in politics’ in some critiques of liberal thought and the position of ambivalence, which suggests a historical relationship between violence and politics. The thesis moves to a further analysis of Hannah Arendt and Michel Foucault, whose works are considered as representing the third position and discuss their analysis of the relationship between violence and politics with a focus on power and revolution.Item Restricted Değerlendirme : Asılacak kadın, önyargılar ve cinsellik(1985) Demir, FahrettinItem Open Access Fabric frontiers: thread, cloth, body, self in Latina literature in film(University of Pennsylvania Press, 2013) Harper, M. P.This article examines the relationship between self-formation and clothing as a contact zone in Sandra Cisneros's "Eleven," Achy Obejas's "We Came All the Way from Cuba So You Could Dress Like This?" and Alicia Partnoy's "The Denim Jacket" as well as in the film El Norte and the documentary Señorita extraviada. Exploring the cultural conflicts that unfold on the surface of clothing, I contend that these literary and cinematic texts offer richly nuanced moments in which a character interacts with a garment to illuminate the complex relations between biological bodies and social contexts. In these texts, cloth operates both as a limen and as the creased and occasionally threadbare map of a life; whether to take a garment off, put it on, throw it away, or hold on to it becomes a matter of ethical significance, of practicing a particular kind of relationship to oneself.Item Restricted İbo kadınları kimlerin elinden kurtardı ? : İbo Show (1993-2011)(Bilkent University, 2020) Yürük, Bilge; Uysal, Havvanur İrem; Atakul, Ecem Bengü; Kamotar, Elif; Öksüz, Utkucanİbo Show, 1993'ten 2011 yılına kadar ekranlarda kalmayı başaran bir programdı. Bu çalışmada İbo Show'un seçilmesinin sebepleri; on sekiz yıl boyunca değişen siyasi ortama, dramatik bir şekilde artan televizyon içeriği kısıtlamalarına, İbrahim Tatlıses aleyhine çıkan haberlere rağmen programın üslubunu koruyabilmesidir. Bu çalışmanın amacı İbrahim Tatlıses'in kadınlara karşı aşağılayıcı tavrının ve kadınlara gösterdiği şiddetin nasıl bir eğlence programı mezesi olarak sunulduğunun incelenmesidir. Çalışmanın başlangıcında İbo Show'un sıyrılışının anlaşılması için başladığı dönem ve içeriği hakkında bilgi verilmiştir. Sonrasında programın aldığı tepkiler kadın başlığı içerisinde tartışılmıştır. Son olarak Tatlıses'in kadınlarla iletişimi ve kadının programdaki yeri incelenmiştir.Item Restricted Kötülük sorunu : Edebiyat/psikoloji(1986) Onur, BekirItem Restricted Krishnamurti üzerine(1984) Huxley, AldousItem Restricted Kültürel şiddetin panzehiri(1994) Batur, EnisItem Open Access Oil and intra-state conflict in Iraq and Syria: sub-state actors and challenges for Turkey’s energy security(Routledge, 2017) İpek, PınarThe continuing dependency on fossil fuels of the Middle East not only in Turkey's energy mix but also in world energy demand requires further analysis of oil and conflict in the region since the fall of Mosul in Iraq to the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria in June 2014. This article addresses the relationship between oil and conflict. Then, it examines the case of Turkey's increasing energy relations with the Kurdistan Regional Government to elucidate the implications of inter-state and intra-state conflict on regional interdependence in the region. The argument asserts that risks of an abrupt regime change or revolutionary regime formation in the aftermath of civil war in Syria and ethnic or sectarian violence in Iraq, which are highly associated with intra-state conflicts, present challenges for Turkey's energy security and most importantly for human security in the region.Item Restricted On the path to a Turkish national economy: the expulsion of Greeks from the Aegean villages(Bilkent University, 2020) Sajjad, Roha; Abdeen, Abdullah; Bin Roslan, Muhammad Firdaus; Hanyyev, Suleyman; Ballyyev, MuhammetThis research paper is based on the events that took place in 1914 in the Aegean town named Phocaea where the Greek Orthodox subjects faced first a commercial boycott, then plundering and murder. This paper gives an idea about the 1914 incidents within its wider context. In this paper, we sought to describe the tragedy in detail and to explain the motives and reasons behind it with the help of contemporary sources. This study endeavored to understand the involvement of the Ottoman government and CUP ideologies such as the creation of a national economy, and its relation with the Balkan Wars. The 1914 tragedy was described in detail. The aftermath of all the events and the condition of the Ottoman Empire was explained later, including reactions of other countries.Item Open Access The "Other of the Other" and "unregulated territories" in the urban periphery: gecekondu violence in the 2000s with a focus on the Esenler case, Istanbul(Elsevier, 2004-02) Erman, T.; Eken, A.This article investigates the broader question of collective urban violence in "peripheral" (squatter) neighborhoods in the capitalist semi-periphery. Based upon a specific case, namely, the Karabayr neighborhood in Esenler, Istanbul, it aims to identify the potential sources of conflict and the conditions under which they turn into violence. To achieve this goal, first a review of the changing relationship of peripheral neighborhoods with the state is offered in a historical perspective. Then, the Karabayr neighborhood and the recent violence it experienced are briefly described, based on the information that appeared in the press and the Internet. And this is followed by a discussion of the possible causes of conflict and violence in the context of the changing conditions in the urban periphery in the 2000s. The transformation of peripheral land into commodity, the increasing physical proximity of residential groups due to land scarcity and building density, the asymmetric position of different residential groups with the state, and the unguarded socialization of the youth explain the increasing tendency towards violence in the urban periphery. In this process, the urban periphery emerges as "unregulated territories" that inhabit the "Other of the Other". © 2003 Elsevier Ltd.

Through critical analysis of a recent campaign initiated as an effort to fight violence against women in Turkey by addressing men as the only agents endowed with agency to solve the problem, we explore the ways in which this discourse risks marginalizing women who seek empowerment through women's solidarity. We uncover three patterns: (1) the assumption of a "cultural particularity" in Turkey nested in the traditional family structure which should allegedly be left unquestioned; (2) glorification of values attributed to the masculine; (3) taking violence as an individual problem of "anger management." We argue that this campaign is inimical to the aim it declares because by marginalizing feminist efforts to question the social and structural patterns of male violence, it deprives women of political agency essential in the struggle against this problem. © 2016 Elsevier Ltd.Item Open Access Punishment for violent crimes: aggression and violence in the early Germanic law codes(Bilkent University, 2017-09) Ayaz, Fevzi BurhanGermanic law codes, which are also known as leges barbarorum, date to between the 5th and 11th centuries. The leges were highly influenced by external legislative regulations and can be basically defined as a combination of Roman law, Germanic tribal laws and canon law. This thesis attempts to examine punishment for aggression and violent crimes in the early Germanic law codes. Violent crimes against another person such as murder, homicide, bodily harm, injury, abduction and rape in the leges barbarorum are analysed in a historical context and punishments for such felonies are investigated in a detailed manner. Specifically, certain issues became apparent due to various social, ethnic and sexual backgrounds of the barbarian people who were subjected to the leges barbarorum. Such matters are discussed in detail by going through each and every article that deals with the punishments for violent crimes. The other purpose of the thesis is to perceive the transformation and adaptation of the Germanic peoples to the new legal systems and to conceive the legal transition process of these newly established political entities using violent crimes base. Main discourse of the research project consists of different kind of studies and investigations as it comes into existence under the distinctive topics. In other words, primary goal of the project is not only to understand the compensation for aggression and violence in the barbarian leges, but also to analyse the differences between the leges barbarorum of the early Germanic societies in the cases of violent crimes and punishment.Item Open Access Religious discrimination and international crises: international effects of domestic inequality(Oxford University Press, 2014) Özdamar, Ö.; Akbaba, Y.This paper explores religious discrimination against ethnic groups and foreign policy crisis linkages as part of the broader foreign policy approaches developed by McGowan and Shapiro (1973) and James and Özdamar (2005, 2008). Informed by the literature suggesting that domestic policies of repression and inequality may result in similar patterns of behavior internationally, this study tests whether states characterized by high levels of religious discrimination against ethnoreligious minorities are more likely to initiate or become involved in foreign policy crises with other states in general. A broad range of data sources, including an independently collected religious discrimination index, are used to test the hypothesized relationship between religious discrimination and international crisis during the period 1990-2003. The results suggest that religious discrimination is an important predictor of initiating and becoming involved in international crises.Item Restricted Sade'ı yakmalı mı?(1991) Evren, SüreyyaItem Restricted Şiddet, özel yaşam(1995) Oktay, AhmetItem Restricted ümmiye Koçak'ın hayatı ve Türk tiyatrosundaki yeri(Bilkent University, 2018) Özaydın, Rumeysa; Dönmez, Eyşan; Seber, Yağmur Elif; Ceylan, Baran; Gürdağ, BerkayBu araştırmada, Türk tiyatrocu ümmiye Koçak’ın hayatı, kendini tiyatro alanında geliştirmesi, Türk tiyatrosuna katkıları ve Türkiye’deki kadına şiddete bakış açısı incelenmiştir.
