Airborne Coloniality Aerial Media and the Vertical Politics of Mediation and Violence
Palestine as a laboratory
This article positions Palestine as a laboratory in the making of modern information-weaponry systems. During the 1936–1939 Palestinian Revolt, Britain tested and refined aerial technologies that fused media, surveillance, and militaria into a new regime of colonial control. The Royal Air Force transformed the sky into a vertical field of domination—at once a medium of transmission, a platform of surveillance, and a weapon of atmospheric discipli…
Decolonizing the public sphere(s)
While the discourse surrounding “decolonizing” risks becoming an abstract notion, the imperative to challenge the monopoly of Eurocentric knowledge systems remains urgent. Committed to the necessity of critical public communication that serves most of the world, the article aims to make a decolonizing intervention into the dominant discussions of critical public communication, which are still largely governed by theories of the public sphere(s). …
The Structural and Temporal Curb of Populism
As right-wing authoritarian-populism becomes a defining feature of world politics, scholars increasingly acknowledge its challenging impacts on journalism. Focusing largely on the populist rhetoric, this interest leaves the structural influences of authoritarian-populism on the journalistic field across diverse contexts largely unexplored. By drawing on in-depth interviews (n = 83) with journalists in Austria, Slovenia, Hungary, and Turkey, and c…
Theorizing and mapping media ownership networks in authoritarian-populist contexts
This paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discussions on authoritarian populism and the media, from the lens of the political economy of ownership. In contrast to studies that consider the link between media and authoritarian populism by focusing on the discursive structures of populist communication, this study analyses changes in the structure of news media ownership in four European countries that have been subject to authoritarian populism…
Parrhesia as Journalism
Despite ongoing endeavours to decolonize and de-westernize journalism studies, the current literature offers very few clues about the history of women’s journalistic practices and struggles in Third World/Global South contexts. The objective of this article is to help to fill this gap by focusing on the lived experiences and struggles of key Turkish-speaking women journalists who worked in private and public sector media outlets in Turkey in the …
Turkey’s communicative authoritarianism
The majority of current political communication studies focus on discursive dimensions of communications and disregard how communications partake in the governing of populations through economic, material and institutional practices. By focusing on Turkey’s case, here I move beyond this approach and examine the role of communications in the development of neoliberal capital accumulation, authoritarian welfare politics, political repression and th…
Screening for Erdoğanism
The majority of current political communication studies focuses on digital and social media, and overlooks the centrality of television for the production and endurance of strongman politics in the Global South. By focusing on the journalistic television productions aired during the June 2018 election period in Turkey, this article unpacks the televisual logic that is incarnated in different modalities of telling and narrating of televisual genre…
Telephone Girls’ at the Frontline of Third World Telephony
The long and complicated work history of women at Third World countries’ national switchboard centrals is a crucial but largely overlooked aspect of the history of telecommunications and the feminist history of labour regimes. By focusing on the Turkish case between the 1950s and the 1980s, this article aims to unveil the authoritarian labour regimes that the telephone girls were exposed to in relation to the capitalist developmentalism, state-le…
The historicity of technological attachments and engagements
This article is concerned with the symbolic power of individualized media technologies in the peripheral contexts of capitalist globality and modernity. In a critique of studies that have suggested that technologies as structuring agents of social positions of the users seem to emerge from the neo-liberalization of the non-West and from the specific use of digital technologies, I argue that such a positioning has a deeply historical character. It…
The Politics of the Digital Technoscape in Turkey
This paper explores how the state employs digital technologies in its pacification of dissident political bodies, subjectivities, and communicative capabilities. It explores strategies of resistance to the surveillance practices which come to the fore as a state form, as a means of social control, and as a mechanism for creating manageable and disciplined crowds. Drawing upon ethnographic data, it focuses on the contemporary politics of the Kurdi…
Cellular telephony in Turkey
This article explores the collective attachment to cellphones in Turkey by focusing on the dynamic relationship between the cellphone as a containing technology of modernity, and its non-elite users who are in search of a safe shelter for their hybrid identities. By taking a close look at the practices whereby the cell phone and its users reciprocally affect each other to produce experiences of the modern in negotiation with the local fabric, thi…
