This class is about discovering the different layers which the eminist
movement in Turkey contains since the Ottoman Empire till today. After
gaining some historical knowledge and learning some acts and dates o the
movements and about different actors in it we are going to ask
questions of justice, authority and power to the subject. We will
discuss topics as gender, patriarchy, public/private sphere, women* in
politcal theory, history of struggles or rights in Turkey, feminism and
the state, women*’s partcipation in political partes and social
movements, nationalism and women* and whatever else we discover what
needs to be discussed. During and after that we will start to research
and build expert groups ourselves with the knowledge we have already
gained by reading articles and discussing with each other. What our
outcome or result is, is going to be something we will decide together
and it will accompany us through our whole process.
