The non-West is a primary agent in refugee humanitarianism.
Humanitarianism has illiberal beginnings and is entangled with enduring questions of ethnicity & geographies of Kurdish (counter-)insurgency in Turkey.

Kadın olduğunuz için verdiğiniz cevap ‘öfkeli’ olmanıza bağlanmış. Erkek olsaydınız ‘prensipli’, ‘ilkeli’ vs. olduğunuzu düşünüp, ‘kusura bakmayın’ bile dileyebilirdi. Başka iş kollarında da durum farklı değil.

Subtweet: Almanya'da bir profesor ile Bosch fabrikasinda calisan kidemli meslek egitimlinin maasi arasindaki fark 200-300 euro civari. Birinci elden biliyorum.
Turkiye'de sorun belli meslek gruplarinin emeginin yok sayilmasi. Bir ornek: Istanbul'da yasayan tanidigimin esi
📢 New publication👇🏾
Drawing on interviews with Turkish border officials, I argue that affective attachments rooted in historical experiences and encounters with Europe shape the meaning of borders and actors‘ identification with and positioning vis-a-vis the EU.
W/in one week, I had one European lecturing me about skirt length & professionalism and another one trying to convince me that a woman wearing a headscarf cannot be progressive because doing so is normalising oppression. I left the table on both occasions. Not regretting a bit.
Hamas terror is now bringing immense suffering to the Palestinian people.
There is no contradiction in standing in solidarity with Israel and acting for the humanitarian needs of the Palestinians ↓
Bir akademisyen olarak kati surette katilmiyorum ve kesinlikle tavsiye etmiyorum.
Bu calisma kosullari 'normal' olsaydi sozlesmelerimizde haftalik 100 saat yazar ve biz ona gore maas alirdik.
Akademisyen adayi arkadaslar: baska bir akademi mumkun ve var, gayet de isliyor.
Cops off campus!!!
This happened at my institution today. My colleagues and students have been beaten by the police.
We don’t want cops in our campus! We don’t want a university administration to call cops on our students and staff.
Türkiye’de depremden etkilenen üniversite öğrencileri için Uluslararası İlişkiler alanında bir seminer serisi düzenliyoruz.
Yurtdışındaki 10 meslektaşımız farklı konularda Türkçe dersler verecek. Dersler çevrim içi. Program aşağıda.
Lütfen paylaşalım.
🚨We are launching a new series of online classes aimed at supporting university students affected by the earthquakes in Turkey.
🇹🇷Türkiye'de depremden etkilenen üniversite öğrencilerine destek amaçlı yeni bir çevrimiçi ders serisini öğrencilerin hizmetine sunuyoruz.
Göçmen olarak yaşamak zor ancak yurtdışında yaşama deneyimini sadece bireysel tecrübe üzerinden açıklayanlar gözlemime göre genelde Türkiye'de vasıflarına nazaran fazla ilgili görenler. Görece daha iyi bir yere gelince vasatlıklarıyla yüzleşmek deneyimlerini şekillendiriyor.
The votes are in! We are delighted to announce that the five new Governing Board members are Debbie Lisle, Beste İşleyen, Sonia Lucarelli, Thierry Balzacq and Corina Lacatus. Congratulations to the newly elected members and many thanks to all the candidates for running.

Including more women in your syllabi? Just completed my syllabus for EU-Turkey Relations and a clear majority are women from/in Turkey, who have delivered outstanding work on the topic. Maybe food for thought about assumptions regarding academia and gender beyond 'the West'?

Some anti-racist people in the West are so busy with themselves that they can’t see the world beyond. They mistake the particular for the universal and impose it on others. When you scratch beneath the surface you see how ignorant but also arrogant they are.

Uzmanlik konunda 'aile' erkeklerinin daha cok konusup, itibar gormesi. Ayni masada fikrinin bile sorulmamasi. 'Ama' dediginde alingan, dirdirci olman. Esitlikciyim diyenlerin birak baska konularda hakkaniyeti, soz hakkini bile gasp etmesi. Bunlari daha yuksek sesle konusmaliyiz.
