Under the Same Sky: Everyday Politics of Religious Difference in Southern Turkey

[Arts Communications]

Please join Anthropology for a special lecture on Monday, November 10 at noon with Dr. Seçil Dagtaș at the Balsille School of International Affairs.
Since the turn of the 21st century, Turkey has experienced both the rise of democratization efforts making formerly excluded minority citizens more visible in public life and an authoritarian nationalism that has bolstered the country’s longstanding racial, religious, and political divides.
Drawing on extended fieldwork in Antakya (Antioch) near Turkey’s border with Syria, this talk focuses on the ambiguous sites of intimacy and social cohabitation that emerge for the minoritized from the interplay between these seemingly opposite political developments. Dagtaș examines how unevenly situated minority and refugee groups at Turkey’s national margins forge each other’s existence through reproducing religious differences amid various forms of precarity, political polarization, and structural violence.
