Missing Turkish revolution: comparing village-level change and continuity in republican turkey and soviet central asia, 1920–50 / Tuna, Mustafa   Journal Article
Tuna, Mustafa Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract The Kemalist leadership of early Republican Turkey attempted to transform the country's Muslim populace with a heavy emphasis on secularism, scientific rationalism, and nationalism. Several studies have examined the effects of this effort, or the “Turkish Revolution,” at the central and more recently provincial levels. This article uses first-hand accounts and statistical data to carry the analysis to the village level. It argues that the Kemalist reforms failed to reach rural Turkey, where more than 80 percent of the population lived. A comparison with sedentary Soviet Central Asia's rural transformation in the same period reveals ideology and the availability of resources as the underlying causes of this failure. Informed by a Marxist–Leninist emphasis on the necessity of transforming the “substructure” for revolutionary change, the Soviet state undermined existing authority structures in Central Asia's villages to facilitate the introduction of communist ideals among their Muslim inhabitants. Turkey's Kemalist leadership, on the other hand, preserved existing authority structures in villages and attempted to change culture first. However, they lacked and could not create the resources to implement this change.

Teaching a state-required course: the history of the Turkish revolution / Barlas, Dilek; Koksal, Yonca   Journal Article
Koksal, Yonca Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract This paper studies innovative approaches and challenges to teaching the state required common core course of the history of the Turkish Revolution. The Turkish state believes that teaching the Turkish Revolution to the younger generations helps to spread the ideology of the Turkish Republic. The paper summarizes the history of the course since the foundation of the Turkish Republic and critically discusses its ideological foundations and changes in its methods and premises over time. Teaching a state-required course creates several problems such as lack of student interest and limited exposure to the history of contemporary Turkey. In order to deal with these problems, teaching techniques have been adopted from the New History approach and improved the required curriculum.
