Book Part Citation Count: 0Book Part Citation Count: 0Active Citizenship in Europe Practices and Demands in the EU, Italy, Turkey, and the UK Conclusion(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 0Active Citizenship in Europe Practices and Demands in the EU, Italy, Turkey, and the UK Preamble and Introduction(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 0Book Part Citation Count: 0Active Citizenship in the UK(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, CristianoAbstract In this chapter, I outline the core characteristics of the British model of active citizenship. The institutionalization of practices of civic and political participation has been a clear objective of both New Right and New Labour governments and more recently of the coalition government led by the Conservatives and Liberal Democrats. Regardless of the ideological differences, across time active citizenship has developed assuming common patterns, with specific characteristics that put emphasis on individual and collective responsibility, on the development of community cohesion to solve specific social problems and on the provision to the Third Sector of specific tasks in order to deliver public services. This approach is not free from ambiguities, as it is argued in the presentation of the data from the analysis. Activists vindicate their autonomy, claiming that New Labour reforms as well as the recent Big Society approach have been one sided and in some cases favored the emergence of coalition groups in spite of the survival of smaller organizations. The chapter also focuses on the active participation of British organizations in European networks and at the opportunities that EU funding has opened for activating projects of transnational solidarity. Under this perspective, the chapter presents some first insights on the scenarios opened by the Brexit and the consequences of the leave vote for civil society organizations.Article Citation Count: 0Book Part Citation Count: 0Active Citizenship: Policy Developments at the EU Level(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 2Breaking the rules in interactive media design education(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2009) Özcan, Oğuzhan; Yantaç, Asım Evren; O'Neil, Mary LouIn today's interactive media design it is difficult for a designer to create aesthetic innovations and to break free from ordinariness. The most important factor limiting interactive media design aesthetics is that education seems to be more focused on following traditional rules of interaction design rather than innovative approaches. These rules limit creativity and often relegate design students to producing ordinary interface solutions. This is especially burdensome for us as teachers. In order to address this problem we developed an education model inspired by Lars von Trier's film Five Obstructions. We call this model 'breaking the rules'. In the 'breaking the rules' approach students produce within a range of probabilities design problem solutions in cases of total or partial visual/auditory/tactile obstructions. The most important outputs of the model are (1) to make design student think/look outside of the ordinary (2) to produce unusual solutions (3) to maximise design solutions with sound.Article Citation Count: 1Effects of gender on credit card usage among university students in Turkey(Academic Journals, 2011) Ucal, Meltem Şengün; O'Neil, Mary Lou; Cankaya, SerkanIn recent years much has been written about credit card usage among university students. Despite a vast number of studies little has been written about credit card usage among university students in developing countries. This research surveyed university students in Turkey in an attempt to understand their uses of credit cards. In particular we examined the impact of gender on credit card use. The literature on the impact of gender on credit card usage is a bit unsettled and this study seeks to add another dimension to the research in this area. Using both parametric and nonparametric measures we sought to isolate gender and tested whether or not it affects the ways that young people in Turkey use credit cards. The importance of this research centers on the portrait it provides of credit card usage among young people in a developing country as well as to pointing the factors that may influence future credit card use.Book Part Citation Count: 0Engagement and Participation: Opportunities and Challenges for the Organized Civil Society in the EU(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 0Europeanization, Public Sphere, and Active Citizenship(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 5Feminists' dilemma-with or without the state? Violence against women and women's shelters in Turkey(Ewha Womans Univ Press, 2011) Toktaş, Şule; Diner, ÇağlaThis article aims to describe the achievements of the women's movement in the struggle against domestic violence in Turkey and the points of contention between the state and feminists regarding this issue. Our goal in analyzing the Turkish case of violence against women is to reflect on how women's organizations work with the state; what they demand from it; and how they respond to the complex situations and dilemmas of state funded women's shelters. The article is based on field research; we used techniques of participant observation at annual congresses organized by women's organizations specialized in fighting violence against women and in-depth interviews with feminist activists, volunteers and social workers at women's shelters. It describes the experiences of feminists in Turkey, who are in the position of receiving support from and working closely with the state in running women's shelters.Book Part Citation Count: 2The Gezi Movement Under a Connective Action Framework: Enhancing New Forms of Citizenship via Social Media(Palgrave, 2017) Chrona, Stavroula; Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 6How Do Women Receive Inheritance? The Processes of Turkish Women's Inclusion and Exclusion from Property(SOOKMYUNG WOMENS UNIV, 2013) Toktaş, Şule; O'Neil, Mary LouThis article employs Turkey as a case study to explore the relationship between property ownership inheritance and women's empowerment. In Turkey as in much of the world men dominate ownership of property. This is despite the fact that women have had equal rights to own and inherit property since 1926. With the establishment of the Republic in 1923 came a series of reforms one of which replaced Islamic Sharia law with a secular civil law that was based on the Swiss Civil Code. The new law among other things guaranteed equal rights of property and inheritance regardless of gender. In an attempt to understand the tangled relationship between property and women's empowerment we conducted interviews regarding inheritance practices among ideologically secular wealthy women in Istanbul. For these women and their families the logic of wealth distribution is deeply informed by a commitment to equality between children with little regard for gender. Even in those cases where strict equality in terms of sameness was not employed the goal was for an overall balance and fairness between recipients. Despite the fact that inheritance law provides for equality most of the families employed interuivos transferBook Part Citation Count: 6Humour as Resistance? A Brief Analysis of the Gezi Park Protest Graffiti(Amsterdam Univ Press, 2015) Yanık, Lerna K.[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 1Insights on the Social Construction of Europe: Patterns in the Permanent State of Euro-Crisis(Palgrave, 2017) Bee, Cristiano[Abstract Not Available]Book Review Citation Count: 0Land of Diverse Migrations: Challenges of Emigration and Immigration in Turkey(Homer Academic Publ House, 2009) Toktaş, Şule[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 10Linguistic Human Rights and the Rights of Kurds(Univ Pennsylvania Press, 2007) O'Neil, Mary Lou[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 0Motherhood Citizenship and Rights: Illegal Abortions in Turkey(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2019) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Komut, Sultan[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 1Neoliberal Ahlak ve Yoksulluk Kıskacında Batmanlı Kadınların Mikrokredi Deneyimleri(Doğu Akdeniz Üniversitesi Kadın Araştırmaları ve Eğitimi Merkezi, 2016) Arı, Semiha; Diner, ÇağlaBu çalışma, Batman’da Türkiye Grameen Mikrofinans Programı’na katılan kadınların kredileri ne amaçla kullandıkları bilgisinin yanı sıra onların program hakkındaki görüşlerini, borçluluk deneyimlerini ve yaşam koşullarını kadınların ağzından aktaracaktır. Küçük bir grup kadınla yapılan niteliksel bir araştırmaya dayanan çalışmanın ortaya çıkardığı bulgular, 2000’li yıllarda dünyada ve Türkiye’de giderek yaygınlaşan mikrokredi programlarının gerek söylemsel olarak gerekse de uygulamada neden bu kadar önem kazandığının sorgulanması gerektiğine işaret etmiştir. Mikrokredi programlarının bir parçası olduğu mikrofinans sektörünün büyümesi ve Türkiye’nin de arasında olduğu birçok devlet ve uluslararası kuruluş tarafından bizzat desteklenmesi kapitalizmin bugün ancak finansal genişleme yoluyla varlığını sürdürebiliyor olması ile yakından ilgilidir. Çoğu kere yoksullukla mücadele amacını güttüğünü iddia eden mikrokredi programları ayrıca devletlerin halklarına karşı sahip oldukları birçok yükümlülükten sıyrılmalarını öngören neoliberal yönetim mantığı ile de iyi bir uyum içerisindedir. Batman’da mikrokredi kullanan kadınlarla yapılan görüşmelere dayanan bu araştırma neoliberalizmle birlikte devletin nasıl dönüştüğü üzerine düşünmemize imkân tanımış ve devletin, ekonominin ve yönetim mantığının değiştiği bu dönüşümde kadınlara ne tür rol ve fonksiyonlar biçildiğini daha açık bir şekilde görmemizi sağlamıştır.
