Den ofrånkomliga nationalismen
The necessary nationalismThis article deals with the role of fictional narratives, especially the modern novel, in the formation of national identities. Naguib Mafouz’s Cairo trilogy is referred to as an example of how literature may both serve as the mirror image of national identities and as an agency in their formation. The sense of community attachment to a modern state is ”thinner” than to a family or traditional village and/or tribe, though…
Those Crazy Turks
In April 2005 a book carrying the stirring title Those Crazy Turks 1 hit the shelves of Turkey's bookstores. The author, Turgut Ozakman (born in 1930), is a lawyer who early in his career turned to
Islamism and Nationalism as Sister Ideologies
Islamism and nationalism are usually regarded as opposites. The main purpose of this article is to question that notion. Instead of conceptualizing these two clusters of ideologies as standing in contradiction to each other, it may be worthwhile to look for affinities between them. That argument is based on an analysis of the doctrine of sovereignty as it underlies modern nationalism (congruence between the state and nation) and how this idiom sh…
The hidden Arab
In Turkey, the strictly secular nationalist ideology of the early republican period has, over recent decades, yielded to a concept of nationalism that is open to a greater variety of cultural value
Development and Reformulation of a Returnee Identity as Alevi
The presented study is actually the product of a research that was conducted in 1988, investigating a returnee community inside a Turkish small town. The main focus of this study was, among others, the analysis of the formation of a “migrant identity”. Even though several years passed, contact with this returnee community continued. Finally, in May 1996 the field was revisited in a more formal manner.

Womanhood, Dignity and Faith
Reveiling has been an important part of the Islamic revivalist movements of the last decades. In Turkey, where secularism has been part of the official state ideology since the 1920s, reveiling has caused deep controversies. This article deals with the socio-political context in which the conflict over veiling has been carried out, the legal aspects of veiling, and how veiling and the controversy around this Islamic practice has been experienced …
