Invented Myths in Contemporary Turkish Political Advertising
(Springer, 2016) Koçer Çamurdan, Suncem; Yalkın, Çağrı
This article focuses on the November 2015 elections in Turkey and analyzes the discourses embedded in the political campaign videos produced and circulated by the Justice and Development Party (ruling party since 2002) Republican People's Party (first political party of the republic) People's Democratic Party (main vehicle of the Kurdish politics) and Nationalist Movement Party (ethno-nationalist party). Republic of Turkey's construction in the national imagination over the past 90 years have both rested on and reproduced a range of themes which are themselves based on recently invented nationalist myths such as the common enemy the multicultural mosaic order and progress fight against imperialism the break from the Ottoman empire and Turkey as bridge between east-and-west. Hence we argue that regardless of their severely diverse stance on key issues in the political realm all the political parties use the hegemony's myths as tools in their advertisements therefore reifying these themes in the public imagination.
Picture Books Vs. Picture Book Apps: an In-Depth Analysis of Industry Experts
(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2016) Atçakarlar, Nefise; Yalkın, Çağrı
The aim of this research is to examine the differences between tale picture books and tale picture book apps, prepared for children at the age of 7 to 9; according to their effects on children's reading culture; in terms of authors, critics and editors in Turkey. In this thesis, before analyzing the research, relationship of tales and reading culture of children were reviewed briefly. Statistical data about books, children and children's Internet using behaviors were investigated. Researches defining properties of book apps and comparing the differences of children's books and book apps in terms of their effects on children's reading culture were analyzed. In order to explore, qualitative research was preferred because the research question could be best answered by in-depth investigation. By using purposeful criterion sampling, e-mail and in-depth interview were done with 22 publishing professionals (editors, critics, authors, managers), who are in touch with children all around Turkey for at least 5 years. 20 open-ended questions were prepared as a part of semi-structured interview. Both in the e-mail and in-depth interviews, questions were re-structured if needed. Questions were investigating the differences between books and apps, in terms of their effects on reading culture, both directly and indirectly. Similar parts of the interviews were gathered and engaged with literature in order to make in-depth analysis.This research intends to develop foresight for children's literature and reading culture by defining the differences between the picture books of old and new media.
2000'li Yıllarda Türk Dizi Sektörünün Durumu
(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2014) Yılmaz, Burak; Yalkın, Çağrı
Bu tez 2000'li yıllarda Türkiye'de dizi sektörünün sahip olduğu temel özelliklerle sektörün yurtiçinde ve yurtdışındaki hareketlerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç için çalışılırken göz önünde bulundurulan temel durum, son 6 yıllık periyodda görülen hacimsel daralmanın, 2014 yılında ulaşılan 150 Milyon Türk Lirası ölçeğindeki ihracat geliri ile ilişkisi ve bu ilişkinin dizi sektörümüzün geleceğini nasıl etkileyeceği olmaktadır. Çalışma içersinde sektör profesyonelleri ile yapılan mülakatlar sonucunda, sektörün yapısının nitel açıdan ortaya konması hedeflenmiştir. Bunun yanında sektörün ürettiği yapımların tür bakımından incelenmesi, ihracat hedefleri ile üretilen ve üretilmesi planlanan yapımların uyumu ve sektörün sahip olduğu sorunlar irdelenmeye çalışılmıştır.

(il)legitimisation of the Role of the Nation State: Understanding of and Reactions To Internet Censorship in Turkey
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2014) Yalkın, Çağrı; Kerrigan, Finola; vom, Lehn Dirk
This study aims to explore Turkish citizen-consumers' understanding of and reactions to censorship of websites in Turkey by using in-depth interviews and online ethnography. In an environment where sites such as YouTube and others are increasingly being banned the citizen-consumers' macro-level understanding is that such censorship is part of a wider ideological plan and their micro-level understanding is that their relationship with the wider global network is reduced in the sense that they have trouble accessing full information on products services and experiences. The study revealed that citizen-consumers engage in two types of resistance strategies against such domination by the state: using irony as passive resistance and using the very same technology used by the state to resist its domination.

Talking Fashion in Female Friendship Groups: Negotiating the Necessary Marketplace Skills and Knowledge
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014) Yalkın, Çağrı; Elliott, Richard
This study revisits contexts of consumer socialization by focusing on fashion consumption among female teenagers. Focus groups and interviews have been utilized to collect data from 12- to 16-year-old female adolescents. The findings indicate that the adolescents cultivate both rational and symbolic skills within their friendship groups through friendship talk. The paper contributes to consumer socialization studies by examining the role of social relationships in and the accounts of the actual uses of fashion products. By doing so it extends scholars' policy makers' schools' and families' understanding of the dynamics involved in the building of young people's consumer identities and what type of issues they face as young consumers. Thus the study provides policy makers with information regarding how consumer skills and knowledge are cultivated and the role of the friendship group in cultivating them which can be used in formulating future policy aimed at consumer education literacy programmes and social marketing aimed at adolescents. © 2014 Springer Science+Business Media New York.

Entrenching Geopolitical Imaginations: Brand(ing) Turkey Through Orhan Pamuk
(Palgrave Macmillan Ltd., 2020) Yalkın, Çağrı; Yanık, Lerna K.
This study focuses on how through consumers the market reproduces a discourse that aligns with the political and the cultural spheres. By drawing on fields of production and consumption we turn to how both Turkey as a nation-brand and Orhan Pamuk as a cultural producer are produced and consumed at the nexus of political and cultural fields. Based on the analysis of data comprising of interviews with Orhan Pamuk and Amazon consumer reviews of his work we argue that the consumers of Pamuk’s works duplicate and reiterate dualities that have come to represent Turkey. This highlights the role of cultural products as nation-brand makers and the markets as where arts and politics intersect. We suggest that cultural products serve as vehicles through which existing perceptions and real and perceived global political hierarchies are reproduced. © 2018 Springer Nature Limited.
