Since coming to power, President Erdo?an's Justice and Development
Party (AKP) have focused on narrating their vision of a 'New
Turkey' an ideal that has resulted in the politicisation of popular
culture and people's everyday lives. Exposing the strategy of
Turkey's ruling elite to obtain cultural hegemony, this book
examines the AKP's efforts to rewrite Turkish public memory by
promoting its ideas through TV series, movies, propaganda videos,
school curricula and material culture in urban public spaces. It
also explores the tactics of cultural resistance developed by the
politically weak to counter the ruling elite's dominant culture of
pious conservatism.
