    “Biraderler rejimi”nden “zorba biraderin rejimi”ne: otoriter sağ popülizm, liberal demokrasi ve toplumsal cinsiyet
    (Rasim Özgür DÖNMEZ, 2023-06-13) Demiralp, Seda; Sayan Cengiz, Feyda
    Otoriter sağ popülizmin yükselişinde, anti-feminist ve reaksiyoner söylem ve politikaların etkili olduğu, sağ popülist liderlerin siyasi iletişim ve üsluplarında da erkeklik vurgusunun yoğunluğu, popülizme toplumsal cinsiyet perspektifinden bakan araştırmacıların sıklıkla vurguladığı bir nokta olagelmiştir. Bu çalışma, otoriter sağ popülist liderlerin, liberal demokrasiye itiraz ederken, neden agresif bir maskülinist söylemi merkeze aldığı sorusuna yanıt aramaktadır. Otoriter sağ popülizm, liberal demokrasinin temsil ve çoğulculuk anlayışına karşı çıkarken nasıl bir toplumsal cinsiyet tahayyülüyle hareket etmektedir? Bu soruya yanıt ararken, feminist teorinin liberal demokrasi eleştirisinden ve analitik bir araç olarak aile metaforundan, özellikle de “kardeşler arası ilişkiler” metaforundan yararlanıyoruz. Çalışmada, otoriter sağ popülizmin, halkı homojen bir yapı olarak, lideri ise halk ile yekvücut olarak kurgulayışına odaklanıyor ve farklılıklara karşı takınılan agresif tavrın temelindeki toplumsal cinsiyet tahayyüllerinin analizini sunuyoruz.

    This thesis explores the relationship between populist discourse and social media algorithms, examining their role in exacerbating political polarization. Its primary aim is to identify the correlation between the use of populist rhetoric and the algorithms driving social media engagement, highlighting how this relationship fosters societal divisions and benefits both platforms and political entities. Using critical discourse analysis (CDA), the thesis analyzes X (formerly Twitter) posts shared by 2023 Turkish presidential election candidates Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and Kemal Kılıçdaroğlu. In the first round of the campaign, shared posts were analyzed between 06.05.2024 and 14.05.2024. A total of 173 posts, 108 by Erdoğan and 65 by Kılıçdaroğlu, were analyzed. The full texts of these posts were obtained from X's official website. The findings reveal that posts featuring emotionally charged and popülist discourse have garnered higher views and engagement in the run-up to the 2023 presidential elections. This analysis will help to understand the political polarization in Turkey. Social media algorithms shape social interaction by strengthening populist discourses. This suggests that social media algorithms, prioritizing emotionally charged content, unintentionally promote populism. The study concludes that the design of social media platforms increases divisive content, leading to a rise in populist rhetoric among political candidates and voters.

    From the guest editors: “design, populism and politics”
    (Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2024-07-09) Pasin, Burkay; Demirbaş, Özgen Osman
    Today, ‘design’ has become a concept that is frequently used in every field, in an awkward and populist manner. Hair design, nail design, feng shui design, wellness design, and city design are some of these conceptions that reduce the value of design, manipulate its meaning, as well as empty its content. For professional designers and design scholars, this situation has become more critical, as they start losing their intellectual voice and professional legitimacy among all those who use and consume the concept of design, regardless of its context. On the other hand, when we consider it from a global perspective, we see that design is one of the most dominant concepts in the strategic planning and development policies of developed and/or developing countries. In a way, it has also become a powerful tool of politics, re-conceptualized in populist discourses and practices of authorities and decision-makers.
