    (Media-Tryck, Lund University, 2023) Gonca Şahin; Selma Değirmenci; Lucia Amaranta Thompson; Tomas Brage; Sara Goodman; Mary Lou O'neil
    This book represents one of the outcomes of the Gender for Excellence in Research EU project which seeks to promote the use of gender and gender theory in a range of disciplines amongst early-stage researchers (the academics of the future). Together the participants in this Early-Stage Research conference presented research from a variety of disciplines in the social sciences, humanities, natural and physical science. Their research through including gender as a concept and/or as a theoretical perspective, demonstrates how gender theory can contribute to expanding our understandings of different scientific phenomena. This project also appeals to the turn in academia towards interdisciplinarity knowledge production by challenging the ways in which knowledge is produced in different disciplines, including natural sciences. The editors of this book would like to thank all the conferences participants, the staff of the Gender and Women Studies Research Centre, Kadir Has University, Istanbul, and all the members of the GenderEx Team, for their contributions to the First Gender for Excellence in Research Conference.

    (Nordic Swan Ecolabel, 2023) Selma Değirmenci; Lucia Amaranta Thompson; Tomas Brage; Sara Goodman; Mary Lou O'neil
    This book is one of the outcomes of the Horizon 2020 EU project Gender for Excellence in Research (GenderEx). This project has promoted the awareness of gender amongst researchers and the application of gender theory across a range of disciplines. The present book consists of the proceedings from the Second International Gender for Excellence in Research Conference, in which research projects from a variety of disciplines were presented, including social sciences, humanities, engineering and physical sciences. The research demonstrates how gender theory can contribute to expanding scientific knowledge. This project also appeals to the turn in academia towards interdisciplinarity by challenging the ways in which academic knowledge is produced. The editors of this book would like to thank all of the conference participants, the staff of the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Research Group, Kadir Has University, Istanbul and all the members of the GenderEx Team, for their contributions to the Second Gender for Excellence in Research Conference. A special thanks to the gendersensitive language editor Liz Sourbut, and to Jonas Palm and his colleagues at the Media Tryck printing office of Lund University.

    You Are What You Wear: Clothing/Appearance Laws and the Construction of the Public Citizen in Turkey
    (Berg Publ, 2010) O'Neil, Mary Lou
    As Turkey set its sights on modernization and Westernization in the early decades of the twentieth century, clothing reform took center stage. The state used clothing as a constitutive element in its establishment and continues to legislate appearance as a means to maintain its power and create a model public citizen that will support it. Today there exists an extensive regulatory regime on clothing and appearance in the public sphere, which induces those governed by it to dress in a "modern" fashion. An examination of these regulations reveals the deeply politicized nature of clothing in Turkey which is guided by the assumption that you are what you wear. While choice of clothing and appearance is neither entirely free nor fully prescribed, dress codes do further restrict already limited choices. Dress codes undermine the relationship thought to exist between individual belief and appearance. Dress codes, in the case of Turkey, are dictated by the state; therefore, the appearance of students and state employees does not necessarily represent their belief but that of the state. The Turkish state, through the use of dress codes, continues to try and produce "modern" citizens, meaning Western and secular.
