Since the formation of the Republic in 1923, Friday sermons (hutbe)
have been an important platform that allows the state to engage and
communicate with the Turkish people. Sermon topics vary from
religious and ethical issues to matters concerning family, women,
health, education, business and the environment. Even if politics,
in the name of secularism, has been banned from mosques and
sermons, questions of how to be a good citizen and honour the
Turkish nation have been of utmost importance. With an
all-pervading sermon theme of social, national and political unity,
Elisabeth Ozdalga explores how long-standing religious rituals are
utilised and mobilised in the formation of modern political
loyalties and national identities.
