In 2019 alone, 474 women were killed by men. Based on theories of connective action and affective publics, this study examines online activism regarding violence against Turkish women through a qualitative content analysis of Twitter messages with popular hashtags. Posts addressing six different cases of violent crimes directed at women that took place between 2015 and 2019 constituted the sample. The results show that large numbers support women through postings and repostings of solidarity, emotional expressions, remembrance, and dissemination of information. Because of the government's authoritarian and repressive tactics in silencing critical voices on social media and in the streets, the potential to build an organized social movement to curtail these violent crimes is minimal.Article Citation Count: 4'just the Way My Generation Reads the News': News Consumption Habits of Youth in Turkey and the Uk(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020) Yanardağoğlu, EylemAudiences' media use and news consumption behaviour are constantly shifting. Some scholars note that the growing decline in youth's news consumption raises concerns about the future of democracy in various media systems. This research explores the factors that influence college students' news consumption behaviour in the United Kingdom and Turkey through an interpretative approach. The data are based on qualitative in-depth interviews with around 50 students studying in major universities in London and Istanbul. The findings show overarching common trends such as increased mobile news access, incidental exposure to news on social media, irregular snacking and verifying of news that drive youth's news consumption behaviour. Findings also show that traditional media use for news has almost been replaced by online media and the modality of traditional media do not easily fit in with youth's daily routine of studies, work and commute.Book Part Citation Count: 1Turkey in Europe, Europe in Turkey: History, Elites, and the Media(Palgrave, 2015) Soysal, Levent; Özçürümez, Saime; Diner, Çağla[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 18Vacillation in Turkey's Popular Global Tv Exports: Toward a More Complex Understanding of Distribution(USC Annenberg Press, 2016) Alankuş, Sevda; Yanardağoğlu, EylemAudience demand for Turkey's TV series has increased their strength in the regional market and beyond. By mid-2014 more than 70 Turkish TV dramas reached audiences in 75 countries. Some experts have characterized this as neo-Ottoman cool, referring to Turkey's growing "soft power" role in successfully combining Islam with democracy. However, survey data from 16 Arab countries, previous audience studies, and our in-depth interviews with Istanbul-based producers and distributors refute this. Neo-Ottoman cool does not register the full dynamics of contingent relations between economy, politics, ideology, and media flows. Our research underscores the region's glocal flexibility and the market articulations overarching Turkey's soft power ambitions, how the drama genre attracts women cross-culturally, and the limits of notions of cultural proximity.Article Citation Count: 32Understanding the Images of Alan Kurdi With "small Data": a Qualitative, Comparative Analysis of Tweets About Refugees in Turkey and Flanders (belgium)(USC Annenberg Press, 2017) Bozdağ Bucak, Çiğdem; Smets, KevinOne of the peak moments of the debate on the European refugee crisis was caused by the circulation of images of Alan Kurdi, a three-year-old Syrian boy who drowned in the Aegean Sea on September 2, 2015. The images triggered worldwide reactions from politicians, nongovernmental organizations, and citizens. This article analyzes these reactions through a qualitative study of 961 tweets from Turkey and Flanders (Belgium), contextualizing them into the framing and representation of refugees before and after the images were released. Our study finds that, despite their iconic qualities and potential to mobilize Twitter users around refugee issues, the images did not cause a major shift in common discourses and representations. Instead, references to Kurdi were incorporated into preexisting discourses on and representations of refugees, thus offering different actors in the public debate on refugees with new symbols and motifs to construct meaning.Article Citation Count: 2Who Is Responsible? the Impact of Emotional Personalization on Explaining the Origins of Social Problems(Routledge, 2020) Kim, Minchul; Hale, Brent J.; Grabe, Maria Elizabeth; Baş, ÖzenPersonalization refers to the journalistic practice of including emotional case studies of ordinary people in news stories, increasing vividness and emotional charge of news and eliciting identification and empathy in news consumers. Previous research suggests that personalization of news stories increases collectivistic (compared with individualistic) causal attributions by the news audience. In response, an experiment was conducted with a week time delay between stimuli presentation and open-ended participant responses to examine the influence of news personalization on how news consumers attribute causes for social issues. Participant (N = 80) trait empathy was included as an additional factor. Findings show that participants with high trait empathy expressed a greater shift to collectivistic attribution after watching personalized news stories than participants with low trait empathy, suggesting that individual differences in trait empathy may be an important factor in how individuals construct their own understanding of social problems.Article Citation Count: 22Bottom-Up Nationalism and Discrimination on Social Media: an Analysis of the Citizenship Debate About Refugees in Turkey(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020) Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemThis study analyzes social media representations of refugees in Turkey and discusses their role in shaping public opinion. The influx of millions of Syrian refugees in Turkey has created heated debates about their presence and future in the country. One of these debates was triggered by President Erdogan's statement that Turkey would issue citizenship rights to Syrians in July 2016. Due to a lack of critical voices about refugee issues in Turkey's mass media sphere, social media has become a key platform for citizens to voice their opinions. Through a discourse analysis of tweets about the issue of refugees' citizenship, I will map different perceptions of refugees in Turkey. I argue that despite contesting discourses about Syrians, the debate on social media reinforces nationalism and an ethnocentric understanding of citizenship in Turkey. As the number of refugees and migrants increases rapidly worldwide, they become the new 'others' of national imagined communities. Social media becomes a key communication space where the nation is discursively constructed in a bottom-up manner through manifestations of 'us' and 'them'. The analysis shows that social media contributes to trivialization and normalization of discrimination and hatred against Syrian refugees through disseminating overt discourses of 'Othering'. Social media also enables more covert forms of discrimination through 'rationalized' arguments that are used to justify discrimination through the basis of false/non-verified information. Thus, Twitter becomes a space for critical, bottom-up, yet nationalistic and discriminatory statements about refugees.Book Part Citation Count: 0Cultural Topographies of the New Berlin(Oxford Unıv Press, 2020) Soysal, Levent[Abstract Not Available]Book Review Citation Count: 0The American Passport in Turkey: National Citizenship in the Age of Transnationalism(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francıs Ltd, 2020) Yanardağoğlu, Eylem[Abstract Not Available]Other Citation Count: 0Elusive Citizenship: Media, Minorities and Freedom of Communication in Turkey in the Last Decade(Galatasaray Üniversitesi İletişim Fakültesi, 2013) Yanardağoğlu, EylemThis paper is based on a presentation delivered at St Antony’s College, University of Oxford on 21st of May 2012 as part of the Seminar Series “Authority, Censorship and Subversion in Turkey: Culture and Society in the AKP Years”. It reviews the developments that took place in realm of freedom of communication and media in the last decade.1 Through interviews with editors and journalists, this presentation demonstrates that the exercise of democratic citizenship through the media and freedom of communication in Turkey is inversely correlated to deepening of AKP’s power in governance.Article Citation Count: 0Covering Turkey: the Dilemmas of Foreign Correspondents Between the Desk and the Field(Galatasaray Üniversitesi İletişim Fakültesi, 2014) Yanardağoğlu, EylemIn the last decade, Turkey’s appeal for international news organizations has risen dramatically. In 1991, there were 85 accredited foreign reporters based in Turkey, the number was recorded as 145 in 2000, 200 in 2005. At the end of 2013, there were 317 accredited members of the foreign media, working for 284 different media organizations. This study accounts for the noticeable increase in the number of foreign correspondents in Turkey. By analyzing data collected via 20 in-depth interviews and online questionnaires, it offers insight on the personal and professional characteristics and practices of foreign journalists covering Turkey. The findings suggest that correspondents “feel responsible” for explaining the complexities in Turkey for their audiences, highlighting the dilemmas between the “desk” and the “field”. They also indicate that Istanbul as an emerging global city does in its own right attracts new media connections.Article Citation Count: 0Uluslararası İletişim ve Kamu Diplomasisi: Bbc Dünya Servisi Haber Merkezi Örneği(Ankara Hacı Bayram Veli Üniversitesi İletişim Fakültesi, 2014) Yanardağoğlu, EylemYirminci yüzyıldan başlayarak, devletlerin uluslararası alanda kamuoyu oluşturmanın önemine verdikleri değere paralel olarak ulus-ötesi yayıncılığa verdikleri önemin de arttığı gözlemlenmektedir. Bu bağlamda, genellikle uluslararası ilişkilerin alt alanı olarak görülen kamu diplomasisi, İkinci Dünya Savaşı’yla beraber bir iletişim stratejisi olarak önem kazanmıştır. Bu makale, uluslararası yayıncılık ve habercilik alanındaki ilk faaliyetlerin görüldüğü BBC Dünya Servisi’ni incelemekte, uluslararası iletişimin siyasi, teknolojik ve ekonomik etmenlerden dolayı değişen çalışma prensipleriyle kamu diplomasisi arasındaki ilişkiyi burada çalışan gazetecilerin deneyim ve görüşleriyle ele almaktadır. Bu makalede sunulan veriler BBC Dünya Servisi’nde 2011 ve 2012 yıllarında yapılan yerinde gözlem ve derinlemesine mülakatlara dayanmaktadır. Mülakatlar sonucu elde edilen bulgular, BBC Dünya Servisi’nde çalışan gazetecilerin kurumun haber kültürünün, BBC’den beklenen kamu diplomasisi fonksiyonuyla çelişmediğine inandıklarını, çünkü gerçek kamu diplomasisi hizmetinin “iyi gazetecilik” yapmak olduğunu düşündüklerine işaret etmektedir.Article Citation Count: 0Changing Practices in International Broadcasting the Bbc World Service Example(Ankara Üniversitesi İletişim Fakültesi, 2014) Yanardağoğlu, EylemLooking at the history of international broadcasting, one can observe that governments utilised international media as an element of public diplomacy as early as 1930s. Some of the first examples are seen at the BBC (British Broadcasting Corporation) World Service, which runs a Turkish Service since 1939. This research examines the factors that impact on international broadcasting and takes the BBC World Service as an example. It focuses on its Turkish Section in order to consider the changing practices at its language services and explore the influence of the issues such as public diplomacy, technological advances and economic policies on these language services. The BBC World Service and the Turkish section are chosen because they constitute one of the first examples of international broadcasting efforts. The findings are based on data that were collected via in-depth interviews conducted with editors and producers in 2011 at the World Service Central Newsroom and the Turkish Service. This research was funded by TÜBİTAK (the Scientific and Research Council of Turkey) post-doctoral study abroad bursary, at the Communication and Media Research Institute, University of Westminster in London, where the researcher was based as a visiting scholar.Article Citation Count: 0Yeni Medya ve Kullanıcı Türevli İçerik: Dokuz8haber Sitesi Örneğinde Yurttaş Gazeteciliği Üzerine Etnografik Bir İnceleme(Uluslararası Kıbrıs Üniversitesi, 2015) Yanardağoğlu, Eylem[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 4Policies of Media and Cultural Integration in Germany: From Guestworker Programmes To a More Integrative Framework(Sage Publications Ltd, 2014) Bozdağ Bucak, ÇiğdemAfter the arrival of the first labour migrants in Germany in the 1960s a gradual change in the perception of migrants in German politics took place: from guests (Gastarbeiter) and foreigners (Ausländer) to citizens as members of a new form of 'us' that is constructed within diversity. These transformations were reflected in Germany's migration-related policies throughout recent history. This article focuses on media-related policies for cultural integration which go hand in hand with the developments in the general migration policy framework analysing different phases after the 1960s. In general we observe an increasing institutionalization of integration policies a more comprehensive understanding of the role of the media for integration purposes and a diversification of measures even more rapidly after the enactment of the Immigration Act in 2004. Cultural diversity is now emphasized as an enriching factor for the German mediascape. However there continues to be a need for long-term policies in order to improve media diversity in practice. © The Author(s) 2014.Book Part Citation Count: 0Book Part Citation Count: 1Cultural Identity in 'fragile Communities: Greek Orthodox Minority Media in Turkey(Ashgate Publishing Ltd, 2014) Yanardağoğlu, Eylem[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 0Foreign Correspondents in Turkey Between the Home and Host Agendas(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2014) Yanardağoğlu, Eylem; Tiliç, L.
