Öğe Akademide Eşitsizlik Nasıl Kurumsallaşıyor: Sıralama, Ölçme ve Etki Reflektif Youtube Yayını(2023) Toros, Emre; Erdogan, Emre; Taşkın, Zehra; Semercı, Pınar Uyan; Doğan, Güleda[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Child Well-Being Indicators Through the Eyes of Children in Turkey: A Happy Child Would be One WhoaEuro¦(Springer, 2017) Uyan-Semerci, Pinar; Erdogan, EmreBased on the research that was conducted to evaluate child well-being indicators from the perspectives of children in order to advance the nation-wide monitoring of their well-being in Turkey, the aim of this article is to demonstrate what children prioritize for each domain for a happy child. To this end, 562 children from different age groups -including some specific focus on certain disadvantaged groups-completed questionnaires. 40 focus groups approximately with 10 children were held afterwards with the aim of evaluating the questionnaire and giving them the opportunity to add what they saw as the missing dimensions with respect to domains and indicators. Health; Material well-being; Education; Risk and the Relationship are the discussed domains. The research focuses on how, in each, stated domains and indicators are evaluated by the children. By sharing the findings of the Turkish case, the article aims to contribute to the current literature by demonstrating how children describe a(n) un/happy child and also to discuss the findings with respect to gender, socio-economic background, and age.Öğe Contextualizing subjective well-being of children in different domains: Does higher safety provide higher subjective well-being for child citizens?(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2017) Uyan-Semerci, Pinar; Erdogan, Emre; Akkan, Basak; Muderrisoglu, Serra; Karatay, AbdullahAccording to the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child, all children are born with civil, political, social and economic rights. However, children's ability to exercise their citizenship rights and practices depend on which country context they live in. Within the limits of this article we want to explore how children's subjective wellbeing is affected by the level of safety provided within the larger country context by using data collected by the consortium of the International Survey of Children's Well-Being. The question we elaborate is whether there is a relationship between the welfare context and subjective well-being of children with respect to different domains, and whether age and gender play a role. We first cluster welfare contexts with selected indicators from international reports among the selected countries of the Children's World Survey from high to low safety provided for children. Then, by referring to the existing literature, we propose six domains for analyzing children's subjective well-being: Health; Material conditions; Education; Risk and Safety; Relationships, and Self-perception. By analyzing each domain we ask whether there is a linear relation between the levels of safety welfare contexts and the subjective well-being of children in different domains and whether this hypothetical relationship exists after controlling for the age and gender of participants. According to our findings, high and medium welfare contexts provide higher subjective well-being in the domains of 'material' and 'risk and safety'. Girls have lower subjective well-being in the low safety welfare context compared to boys. We also find that in the domains of education and relationship, girls' subjective well-being is higher than boys in every safety welfare contexts. Last but not least we also find that the high safety welfare context has a lower average in the self-perception domain and also there is gender difference, girls compared' to boys are less satisfied with themselves.Öğe Öğe Effects of Social Media on Civil and Political Participation and a Field of Survey over on Facebook(Online Journal Communication & Media Technologies-Ojcmt, 2014) Kamiloglu, Fatma; Erdogan, EmreTurkish youth is characterized with low level of political participation. Several surveys showed that less than 10 percent of Turkish youth are active in political parties and civil society organizations. There are cultural and behavioral reasons of this inertia. Meanwhile, Facebook, the most important social network site is widely used in Turkey and Turkish users form the 6th biggest population in Facebook but level of political participation in Facebook is unknown. By using data collected from 563 university students, this paper showed that there different dimensions of political participation in Facebook and level of activity in these dimensions is dependent on several factors. Demographic factors are important in active participation, meanwhile participation through direct or indirect expression are affected by Facebook usage patterns of respondent as well as real life political activities and perceptions.Öğe Growing perceived threat and prejudice as sources of intolerance: evidence from the 2015 Turkish general elections(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) Erisen, Cengiz; Erdogan, EmreTolerance is a central concept for a society's democratic foundations. Many forms of populism threaten tolerance and are a growing concern for consolidated liberal democracies as well developing ones. Right-wing ideology, heightened nationalism, and xenophobic rhetoric toward minorities are threatening social cohesion, public unity, and liberal values. Turkey, subject to various destabilizing recent events, faces specific challenges amid political, social, and economic uncertainties. Using two waves of a nationally representative survey, conducted after each of two general elections in 2015, we studied changes in the behavioral indicators of intolerance in the Turkish electorate. We found that perceived threat and prejudice explain changes in public intolerance during this period. We discuss the implications of our results for the standing of democracy in Turkey.Öğe How Do Children Contextualize Their Well-Being? Methodological Insights from a Neighborhood Based Qualitative Study in Istanbul(Springer, 2019) Akkan, Basak; Muderrisoglu, Serra; Uyan-Semerci, Pinar; Erdogan, EmreBuilt on a neighborhood-based qualitative study that was carried out in Istanbul, this article explores the use of complementary research methods that explore how children contextualize their well-being within the spatial boundaries of a particular social location. Therefore, spatiality is used as a methodological tool to understand children's subjective construction of well-being embedded in a web of relations. Using the framework of the social studies of childhood that constructs child as an agent, the research study puts emphasis in involving children in the research process as active participants and encouraging them to build their own narratives that manifest authentic childhood experiences. A variety of methods that are developed according to the age of the child are used in this study like in-depth interviews based on spatial experiences, in-depth interviews with a projection method, thematic focus groups and photography study. They are designed to facilitate a participatory research process that encourages the child to think through the spaces (school, home, neighborhood, etc.) along with a web of relations that his/her well-being is embedded in. The spatial understanding of child well-being in relation to subjective and objective conditions is the focus of the analysis of the qualitative research.Öğe How Turkey's repetitive elections affected the populist tone in the discourses of the Justice and Development Party Leaders(Sage Publications Inc, 2018) Ercetin, Tugce; Erdogan, EmrePerceived uncertainty and anger lead people to investigate with respect to the establishment, and politicians who are seen as reckless within society. In this sense, populist discourse paved a way to respond by glorifying one group of people and scapegoating others that emerge as group differentiation. Critical moments especially illustrate mutual constructive identification through the discourse of political actors. This article explores a contextual change in the populist discourse of the Justice and Development Party (JDP) leaders by observing the successive elections that occurred in 2015. It argues that the leaders mainly expressed an us-them distinction, in-group superiority, and the people populist themes; as well as these themes, the electoral speeches made for the second election presented scapegoating and exclusionary statements even more.Öğe Inclusive Settlement of Young Asylum Seekers in a Rural Region: The Role of Informal Support and Mentoring(Mdpi, 2021) Alarcon, Xavier; Casademont, Xavier; Lendzhova, Vladislava; Erdogan, EmreIn the last ten years, the settlement and integration of refugee families and asylum seekers have represented some of the main challenges faced by European territories. People in need of international protection can face challenges in being settled and integrated into rural areas where it is often difficult to find co-ethnic support networks. This case study provides relevant data on how the settlement of young asylum seekers is carried out in the main town of a rural area in Catalunya. It explores the impact of a mentoring programme which consists of providing informal support to newcomers in language acquisition (Catalan), as well as inclusion in the job market and social capital. We interviewed almost all participants of that programme in this rural area, gathering in-depth interviews with mentees (with eight young asylum seekers) and two discussion groups with their mentors (living in the main town of the region). Our findings showed that whereas the main objectives of the programme are providing linguistic support, social capital and inclusion to the job market, mentoring is more focused on providing emotional support and cultivating a sense of belonging. Various outcomes will be discussed which consider the types of support that were present in mentoring relationships and how bonding and bridging social capital were fostered, namely the elements that can promote a more inclusive and welcoming rural community.Öğe 'Mirror, mirror on the wall, please tell me horizontal ellipsis ': the populist rhetoric of the 'new' media of 'new Turkey' during the April 16, 2017 referendum(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2021) Ercetin, Tugce; Erdogan, EmreThis article aims to explain how the media reproduced populist themes during the campaign for the constitutional referendum in 2017 by examining columns in pro-government newspapers and conducting a content analysis. The findings demonstrate that 'the people' were seen as the most significant opposition to the establishment. The 'us-them' distinction was mostly used, which was promoted by othering, emphasizing the moral superiority and victimization of the in-group and humiliating out-groups. The study argues that populist discourse is successful in making group differentiations and that pro-AKP elements in the media helped the government gain consent for its campaign for a 'new Turkey.'Öğe NEET Rural-Urban Ecosystems: The Role of Urban Social Innovation Diffusion in Supporting Sustainable Rural Pathways to Education, Employment, and Training(Mdpi, 2021) Erdogan, Emre; Flynn, Paul; Nasya, Bahanur; Paabort, Heidi; Lendzhova, VladislavaCommon themes of EU social policy include: the promotion of employment; improved living and working conditions; the equal treatment of employees; adequate social protection; and capacity building of the European citizenship. However, it is often the case that rural dwellers and, more specifically, rural NEETs, experience higher levels of marginalisation than their urban counterparts. Such marginalisation is evidenced by their exclusion from decision-making, public life, community, and society. These issues are compounded by an underdeveloped rural infrastructure, problematic access to education, limited employment opportunities, and a lack of meaningful social interaction. This study, a cross-sectional analysis, assesses a number (n = 51) of social interventions under the Youth Guarantee Programme from a social innovation perspective and presents a characterisation of examples of best practice across different dimensions of social innovations. This paper presents an examination of the potential of sustainable rural-urban ecosystems that are focused on supporting the symbiotic social innovation diffusion methods which can help to establish and sustain rural-urban pathways to improved education, employment, and training.Öğe 'Now we are whole:' humiliation, shame and pride in Aliyev's discourse on the 2020 Nagorno-Karabakh War(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Kosen, Mustafa Gokcan; Erdogan, EmreThe article focuses on the role, interchangeability and liquidity of emotions in the speeches of Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev during the Nagorno-Karabakh War in 2020. It enquires about the functionality of emotions before, during, and after the war and finds that Aliyev prepared, mobilized and motivated society for the war through multiple 'Address to the Nation' speeches that aimed to evoke specific emotions such as shame, pride, and humiliation via portraying the occupation of Susha and the surrounding region as a source of shame and humiliation and the military victories in 2020 as a source of pride for the whole nation, which, combined, constitutes a crucial example of the interchangeability and liquidity of emotions. The emotional appeals in his speeches also justify and garner support for the initiation of the conflict, which, after the victory, transforms into Azerbaijani pride and humiliation of Armenians.Öğe Obscurities of a Referendum Foretold: The 2017 Constitutional Amendments in Turkey(Cambridge Univ Press, 2018) Bilgin, Hasret Dikici; Erdogan, EmreThe 2017 referendum marked a transition from an already incongruous parliamentary system to rampant presidentialism and created more conflicts rather than defusing them. Given the extraordinary conditions under which the referendum was held, and the limited time allowed for discussion of its possible ramifications, any effort to analyze the eve and aftermath of the referendum provoked more questions than answers. Why was the referendum held in 2017, although the governing party had advocated for a new constitution and transition to a presidential system since it came to power in 2002? What was the attitude of the voters towards the presidential system? How did popular support change or did it in fact change during the referendum campaign? The analysis of these questions presented here relies on extant research to inventory what we really know and do not know about the most recent Turkish referendum and why these unanswered questions might have critical consequences.Öğe The reproduction of fear in populist discourse: an analysis of campaign speeches by the Justice and Development Party elites(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Ercetin, Tugce; Erdogan, EmreThis paper scrutinizes the reproduction of fear in the populist discourse of the Justice and Development Party and provides a content analysis of campaign speeches between 2015 and 2018. We posit that the linkage between populism and fear derives from two frames, victimization and blaming, appealing to perceived threat and insecurity that deepens the construction of 'us-vs-them' group differentiation. We argue that the AKP's campaign in the 2015 elections frames security, value, and competing narratives by emphasizing terrorism, clashes with the 'others', and the opposition's lack of capacity to rule. Their campaign in the 2017 referendum articulates a crisis and issue-based narrative over the coup attempt and constitutional amendments, and the 2018 campaign featured an issue, value, and security-based narrative. The findings show various continuities and changes in the AKP narratives based on exploiting citizens' threat perceptions, with broad fear-based narratives remaining constant while the specifics of the threat adapt to the political atmosphere of the time.Öğe Turkish Democracy Today: Elections, Protest and Stability in an Islamic Society(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008) Erdogan, Emre[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Understanding young citizens' political participation in Turkey: does being young' matter?(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) Erdogan, Emre; Uyan-Semerci, PinarParticipation is key to the discussions of democracy and justice. For all citizens, no matter their differences, having the ability to participate is a difficult but required condition for a just and democratic political community. Based on the recent research on citizenship in Turkey, this article aims to explore, first, whether young citizens' political participation shows a different pattern when compared to the rest of the population and, second, whether being young still determines the outcome when controlled for demographical factors and economic status. We then question whether belonging to different collective identities plays a different role in the way young citizens participate, and how. Last, mostly focusing on young citizens' perceptions of the Gezi Park protests, the paper will discuss the role of politicized collective identities in the formation of conventional and unconventional political participation.Öğe Who cannot access education? Difficulties of being a student for children from Syria in Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2018) Uyan-Semerci, Pinar; Erdogan, EmreAccording to the latest official figures, more than 3 million Syrians are residing in Turkey under the status of temporary protection, and more than 50% of these are under 18 years old. The number of children from Syria between 5 and 14 years of age is 677,217 and 315,000 for the 15-19 age group, meaning that more than 1 million children are at a school age. According to the temporary protection status, children from Syria have the right to access education, including preschool education in Turkey. However, the percentage of registered children in schools varies 15-30% and this ratio is significantly lower outside of the camps. After the introduction of new regulations, more registration is expected. In this article, we focus on the factors that determine being out of school for children from Syria living in Turkey. We use the findings of the fieldwork conducted for the Baseline Assessment Study for an NGO in Turkey as a basis in order to understand the current situation. Our data comprise 541 interviews conducted in Sanliurfa and Hatay, two cities where Syrians form a significant portion of the population, in February and March 2016. According to the findings, providing support to families with the lowest incomes, those families who have more than four children and those parents with the lowest education will increase children's access to school, which definitely contributes to their overall well-being.
