Media and politics in 'New Turkey' with Lisel Hintz

Описание: Recap radio #11

Turkey recap editor-in-chief Diego Cupolo spoke with Lisel Hintz, assistant professor of International Relations at Johns Hopkins University SAIS and author of the book: “Identity Politics Inside Out: National Identity Contestation and Foreign Policy in Turkey.”

They discussed how narratives in pro-government media aim to create cultural and political hegemony in Turkey under Pres. Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and his Justice and Development Party (AKP).

Topics covered include the PKK peace process, ongoing judicial pressure on the main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) and the AKP’s grand strategy for the so-called ‘New Turkey’.
