Police Reform in Turkey Human Security, Gender and State Violence under Erdogan Hulagu, Funda. creator text Electronic books. enk London I. B. Tauris & Company, Limited 2021 monographic eng remote 1 online resource (209 p.). "How has the supposedly liberalizing project of police reform in Turkey become central to the increasingly authoritarian regime of Erdogan's AKP Party? Engaging political theory and a gender studies perspective, this book traces the implementation of security sector reform in Turkey, showing how various agents, including Islamist policy-makers, Turkish police and the women's movement in Turkey have contributed to and resisted growing police powers. A critical study which also employs case studies, this is a timely intervention on the 'authoritarian turn' in Turkey and contributes to a growing number of studies of neoliberalism and security in the context of liberal internationalism. Produced in association with the British Institute at Ankara."-- Cover -- Contents -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- 1 The new liberal geoculture -- 2 Moralist philosophy of the police reform -- 3 Feminist interventions in and against the state -- 4 State violence against politically active women -- Conclusion -- Notes -- Bibliography -- Index Description based upon print version of record.
