Whose City Is That? Culture, Design, Spectacle and Capital in Istanbul
Whose City is That? shows that Istanbul is produced not only by strong and systematic efforts, corporate influences and/or marketing activities, but also by individual contributions and coincidences. As such, the primary purpose of this book is to find the answer of to whom Istanbul does belong, presenting the reader with the richness of human experience and the practice of everyday life. The chapters in this book are therefore focused on the physical and economic dimensions, as well as the imaginary, fictional and hyper-real dimensions, expressing the concern of bringing the real and imaginary borders of the city together. The book provides an understanding that for each inhabitant there is...

Inside Out in Istanbul
Planning to travel to Istanbul and want to know what adventures will await you? Already been and want to know more? "Inside Out In Istanbul" is a collection of short stories about life in Istanbul by author Lisa Morrow. Lisa first went to Turkey in 1990, where she stayed in the small village of Göreme for three months during the Gulf War. Since that time she has travelled back and forth between Turkey and Australia many times, living and working in Istanbul and Kayseri in central Turkey, before finally settling for good in Istanbul. The stories in this collection take you beyond the world famous sights of Istanbul to the shores of Asia, to an Istanbul that is vibrantly alive with the sounds of street vendors, wedding parties, weekly markets and more. Come behind the tourist façades and venture deep into this sometimes chaotic, often schizophrenic but always charming city.
Bringing History to Life through Film
Whether re-creating an actual event or simply being set in a bygone era, films have long taken liberties with the truth. While some members of the audience can appreciate a movie without being distracted by historical inaccuracies, other viewers are more discerning. From revered classics like Gone with the Wind to recent award winners like Argo, Hollywood films often are taken to task for their loose adherence to the facts. But what obligation do filmmakers have to the truth when trying to create a two-hour piece of entertainment? In Bringing History to Life through Film: The Art of Cinematic Storytelling, Kathryn Anne Morey brings together essays that explore the controversial issue of film...

Fotoğrafların Dilinden Şebinkarahisar
Anadolu’nun kadim yerleşim alanlarından olan Şebinkarahisar, tarih boyu serhat şehri olması dolayısıyla askerî, ticarî ve idarî bakımdan sürekli dikkat çekmiş, ön plana çıkmıştır. Bu özelliği sebebiyle şehrin çekirdeğini teşkil eden kale başta olmak üzere resmî, ticarî veya sivil yaşama ait çok sayıda yapı inşa edilmiştir. Ancak doğal veya beşerî yıkımlar sebebiyle bu yapılardan çok azı günümüze ulaşabilmiştir. Medeniyetlerin izlerini taşıyan bu yapılardan en azından bir kısmının varlığından fotoğraflar veya çeşitli arşiv vesikaları sayesinde haberdar olabiliyoruz. İşte bu kitap, Şebinkarahisar şehrini teşkil eden önemli bazı yapılar ile son dönemin beşerî hayatına dair görsel materyalleri belli bir düzen içinde okuyucunun ilgisine sunarak ilçenin tarihine ışık tutmayı amaçlamıştır.
Party Politics in Turkey
Although the literature on party politics has significantly advanced both methodologically and theoretically in recent years, the study of political parties in Turkey has been noticeably disconnected and lacking from such conversations. This book evaluates well-established theories and trends in existing party politics literature and relates them to the case of Turkey. It explores fundamental questions such as: Who controls party organizations and how does the locus of control change over time? What kinds of power struggles are observed inside a party and between whom? What do the present and past records of party membership imply for party organizations? What role do grassroots activists pl...
