This book examines why Turkey has become infamous as a repressor of
news media freedom. For the past decade or so it has stood
alongside China as a notorious jailer of journalists - at the same
time as being a candidate state of the EU. The author argues that
the reasons for this conundrum are complex and whilst the AKP is
responsible for the most recent illiberality, its actions should be
taken in the wider context of Turkish politics - and the three way
battle for power which has been raging between Kemalists, Kurds and
Islamists since the republic was founded in 1923. The AKP are the
current winners of this tripartite power struggle and the
securitisation of journalists as terrorists is part of that quest.
Moreover, whilst securitisation is not new, it has intensified
recently as the number of the AKP's political opponents has
proliferated. Securitisation is also a means of delegitimising
journalism - and neutralizing any threat to the AKP's electoral
prospects - whilst maintaining a democratic facade on the world
stage. Lastly, the book argues that whilst the AKP's securitisation
of news began as a means of quashing the reporting of illiberality
against wider political targets, since 2016 it has become a target
in its own right. In the battle for power in Turkey, journalism is
now one of the many losers.
From a cheeky Fox Duffle Coat to a sweet and simple Mouse Pocket
Dress, the designs in The Fox, the Bear & the Bunny are great
fun and utterly adorable. The animal themed projects include
dresses, dungarees, coats and trousers, and each are embellished
with different animals for a playful twist. The Bunny coat has ears
and a tail, whilst the Cat Mittens have a fun pawprint motif. Aimed
at crafters with some experience of machine sewing, the pull-out
pattern sheets, simple, step-by-step instructions and clear
diagrams make even seemingly complicated patterns easy to
understand and accessible, and all the patterns can be scaled up or
down to fit children aged 1-5. The fun features of these clothes
encourage creative play, and children will love having unique and
quirky clothes that really stand out. With everything from rabbits
and owls to foxes and bears, youngsters and adults alike will be
delighted by these whimsical and original designs.
