| Title | (Re)drawing the Map of Politics: Practicing Feminist Blog Writing as a Political Mode of Engagements |
| Summary | This thesis explores the ways in which feminist blog writing could transform the hyper-masculine character of Turkish politics. It conducts an analysis of discourse and practice of three pro-feminist Turkish blogsites, The Reçel Blog, Çatlak Zemin, and 5Harfliler. The analysis of blog sites and articles is supported by interviews with editors and blog writers. Building on the feminist IR and poststructural feminism, this thesis teases out the transformative potential of feminist blog writing in recreating the map of politics and enabling stylized engagement. It looks at the feminist perspectives on urban planning and domestic labor. It engages in three thematic sections of stylized interventions from Muslim women, scientist women, and mothers, that contest the limits of conventional identities and modes of engagements. |
