Erdoğan’s presidential regime and strategic legalism: Turkish democracy in the twilight zone

ABSTRACT

President Erdo?an and the AKP government initiated a comprehensive restoration process immediately after the failed coup in mid-July 2016. In fact, the country has been experiencing a very comprehensive and violent regime transformation since this time. I assert that recent political developments paved the way for institutionalization of a ‘plebiscitary presidential regime’ that depends on a particular combination of supreme power of the leader, an extremely weak parliament, and elections of a plebiscitary character. In this context, the paper aims to shed light on the role of the new strategic legalism which allows rule of law to be replaced by a rule by law approach, the executive prerogative principle to be dominant, and the law to be used for demobilization, all playing a highly critical role in the suppression of democratic opposition.     

From ‘clients’ to ‘magnates’: the (not so) curious case of Islamic authoritarianism in Turkey

ABSTRACT

This paper sketches out the historical emergence and progress of political Islam in modern Turkey by emphasizing its statist and clientelistic aspects emanating from the authoritarian basis of Turkish political modernization. The paper contends that there has always been an authoritarian and autocratic tendency in modern Turkish politics that depends on a peculiar and modernist articulation of both Islamism and secularism, which eventually stand on the same ground. This very ground is formed upon a sacred understanding of the state that can be defined as an all-encompassing and absolute perfection of political power, which manifests itself differently in content for secular nationalists and Islamists, and yet produces the same authoritarian tendency. Both the secular nationalism and Islamism appear to be state oriented movements in the sense that they both have emanated from the state, and envisage to control the state in an absolute sense.

论企业核心竞争力的培育

核心竞争力已成为企业市场竞争成败的关键因素,培育我国企业核心竞争力迫在眉睫。企业核心竞争力具有价值性、独特性、扩展性、动态性等特点,影响企业核心竞争力的因素是多方面的,应从创造良好的外部环境,建立完善的现代企业制度,培养和引进技术与管理人才,提高管理水平和研发能力,建立"学习型组织"的模式等方面入手培养企业的核心竞争力。     

Managing public affairs through storytelling

Storytelling has recently been discovered as an important tool for gaining the support of those external constituencies the organisation critically depends upon. This paper explores the narrative approach to public affairs by reporting an in‐depth case study of the storytelling practices of representatives of the global foods industry and environmental activist groups during the recent introduction of genetically modified food crops. The analysis reveals that these parties use competing versions of what are essentially the same narratives to gain the support of regulators and the public at large in the various market and non‐market arenas in which these groups compete.

基于区位竞争优势的产业竞争力:整合与升级

随着全球化和新经济的深入发展,以信息技术为核心的新技术革命加速了国际分工和世界产业结构的全方位变革,在发达国家推动建立全球生产体系的过程中,后发国家通常面临两难选择:融入这一趋势很可能成为发达国家获取低成本要素的基地,陷入“轴与轮”的困境;反之则可能被排斥在全球经济社会发展浪潮之外,进而被“边缘化”。破解这一难题的关键是提升后发国家的产业竞争力。传统理论对于提升产业竞争力的理论指导已力不从心,因此,需要结合特定的经济成长阶段,从区位竞争优势的视角进行深入研究产业竞争力的理论内核、外生变量和成长方式,在区住竞争优势升级中提升产业竞争力。
