The “Inequalities, Peace and Conflict in Turkey” workshop aims to shed light on the patterns and mechanisms of inequalities and their impact on societal conflicts in Turkey. We invite papers that tackle the issues of inequalities, peace, and conflict in Turkey from a broader perspective, including social, economic, political and spatial features.
Inequalities, Peace and Conflict in Turkey
Date and place: 9-10 December 2019 Stockholm University
The recent decade saw a significant growth in debates about inequalities and peace andconflict in Turkey. Recent trends of democratic backsliding, economic crises, large-scale urban and environmental changes and new social challenges related to migration, gender equality, and ethnic issues have made these issues more complex and multifaceted.
While this workshop’s geographical focus is on Turkey, it seeks to construct a better understanding of the challenges related to social and economic injustice in the global context and to bring innovative policy options to these challenges. It aims to open up new ways of thinking about inequalities in the Global South and advance critical-constructive scholarship about their impacts on peace and conflict.
