Recensies en Artikelen
"This volume, edited by Isabel David and Kumru Toktamis, is one of the first attempts to assess the mark Istanbul’s Gezi Park protests in May and June 2013 have left on Turkey’s political scene. The book’s most important contribution is its portrayal of the vibrancy of the Gezi Park protests and the possibilities of bottom-up citizen engagement." -- L’ubica Polláková IN International Affairs

Everywhere Taksim
Sowing the Seeds for a New Turkey at Gezi
De onderstaande tekst is niet beschikbaar in het Nederlands en wordt in het Engels weergegeven.
In May 2013, a small group of protesters made camp in Istanbul's Taksim Square, protesting the privatisation of what had long been a vibrant public space. When the police responded to the demonstration with brutality, the protests exploded in size and force, quickly becoming a massive statement of opposition to the Turkish regime. This book assembles a collection of field research, data, theoretical analyses, and cross-country comparisons to show the significance of the protests both within Turkey and throughout the world.
