A Problem of Perspective
This study critiques study of African religions as a singular phenomenon under the umbrella term "African Traditional Religion" and rejects this reductionist approach, suggesting that a more detailed approach that recognises the diversity and plurality of religions on the African continent would allow for more insightful results in the study of religion in Africa. Along with Islam and Christianity, many religions indigenous to African peoples are…

Ulusötesi̇ Göç, Ki̇mli̇k Ve Ai̇di̇yet
Alevilik Anadolu kültürel mirasının inançsal formlarından birisi olarak her dönem kamusal alanda inanç eksenli tartışmaların odağında yer almış, Aleviler de tarihsel nedenlerle kendilerini periferik alanlara saklayarak inançlarını izole bir şekilde yaşamışlardır. Tarihsel süreç boyunca inançlarına yönelik baskılarla zor zamanlar geçiren Aleviler yaşanan olumsuzluklara rağmen öğretilerine sahip çıkmışlar, cem ve semah ritüeli başta olmak üzere diğ…
Luteryen-Katolik Diyaloğu
Hıristiyanlık tarihi ayrılık hikâyeleri ile doludur. Bu ayrılıkları gidermek için çeşitli kiliseler arasında birtakım diyalog faaliyetleri gerçekleşmiştir. Özellikle 19. yüzyılda bu çerçevede yeni bir canlanma yaşanmış ve 20. yüzyılda da bu tür girişimler artarak devam etmiştir. Roma Katolik Kilisesi başlangıçta bu tür çalışmalara karşı çoğunlukla mesafeli bir tutum takınmıştır. Ancak II. Vatikan Konsili’nden sonra Roma Kilisesi de ökümenik diyal…

Gender impartiality of public institutions, religiosity, and satisfaction with democracy
Previous literature demonstrated that gender inequality is a major challenge for democratic consolidation. However, research that studies the effect of gender inequality on citizens’ satisfaction with democracy is limited. This study contributes to this literature by exploring the relationship between citizens’ perceptions of gender impartiality of public institutions and satisfaction with democracy in Turkey, where gender inequality is an acute …

Based on Turkey’s political and economic context, as well as the existing literature, this study investigates the effect of four factors on people’s satisfaction with democracy in Turkey: citizens’ conceptualizations of democracy, being a political winner, citizens’ perceptions of electoral integrity, and ethnic identity. Regression analysis of a nationally representative survey r…
How populists securitize elections to win them
This study presents a new theoretical framework for understanding one of the ways in which populists generate support in elections. It argues that populist movements securitize elections by triggering perceptions of ontological insecurity among voters. Through this strategy, populist movements amplify voters’ negative image of the country they live in and the challenges they face, which contributes to populist movements’ electoral success. Buildi…
Policy-making by tweets
Experience in various countries demonstrated that populist leaders enfeeble democracy. Once elected, populist leaders concentrate power in their hands while undermining horizontal checks on their power. By drawing upon the Trump presidency in the U.S., this article reveals one of the dynamics in which populist leaders bypass institutions of horizontal checks in policy-making. It argues that populist leaders use social media platforms to dissemina…

We conducted survey research using a nationally representative sample of 1804 people. Multivariate regression analysis revealed that Kurds in Turkey have a more negative perception of the police than Turks, regardless of their gender, educati…
