<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\nYonucu examines how Turkish state security forces have historically targeted neighborhoods like Devrimova, turning them into sites of continuous surveillance, counterinsurgency, and conflict. Drawing on Jacques Ranci\u00e8re’s theoretical framework distinguishing “police” from “politics,” she argues that the state\u2019s policing extends beyond maintaining order to actively generating disorder. This strategy, which Yonucu terms “provocative counterorganization,” involves fostering divisions within dissident communities, manipulating ethnosectarian tensions, and criminalizing political activism to fragment solidarity and suppress resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
El libro explora la evoluci\u00f3n del vigilantismo en estos barrios. Inicialmente surgi\u00f3 como un esfuerzo comunitario y desarmado para combatir la delincuencia menor y los problemas relacionados con las drogas, desatendidos por las autoridades estatales. Sin embargo, bajo la presi\u00f3n del Estado, el vigilantismo se transform\u00f3 gradualmente. La aplicaci\u00f3n extensiva de leyes antiterroristas y la represi\u00f3n dirigida contra los organizadores comunitarios provocaron un giro hacia formas de justicia local m\u00e1s militarizadas y masculinizadas. Yonucu destaca c\u00f3mo esta transformaci\u00f3n refleja las t\u00e1cticas estatales dise\u00f1adas para deslegitimar el activismo pol\u00edtico genuino, empuj\u00e1ndolo hacia extremos violentos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yonucu also examines the gendered dimensions of resistance and policing. Despite the hyper-masculine environment fostered by both state repression and revolutionary groups, Alevi women have carved out spaces of political agency. Through people\u2019s committees and grassroots activism, they challenge patriarchal norms, bringing issues like domestic violence and gender inequality into public discourse\u2014acts of “de facto feminist politics” that resist both state and societal oppression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Police, Provocation, Politics<\/em> es una contribuci\u00f3n fundamental a la antropolog\u00eda de la violencia, los estudios sobre vigilancia y la pol\u00edtica en Medio Oriente. Al situar las pr\u00e1cticas de seguridad interna de Turqu\u00eda dentro de un contexto global de contrainsurgencia, Yonucu ofrece un an\u00e1lisis detallado sobre c\u00f3mo los Estados mantienen el poder tanto a trav\u00e9s de la represi\u00f3n abierta como de la manipulaci\u00f3n encubierta. Este libro es esencial para acad\u00e9micos de ciencia pol\u00edtica, estudios urbanos y derechos humanos, proporcionando una visi\u00f3n profunda de la compleja relaci\u00f3n entre el poder estatal y la resistencia popular. Para quienes buscan un an\u00e1lisis cr\u00edtico sobre la represi\u00f3n estatal y la contrainsurgencia en el contexto urbano turco, el libro est\u00e1 disponible aqu\u00ed.<\/a><\/p><\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Winner of the 2023 Anthony Leeds Prize<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":19566,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"iawp_total_views":11,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1147],"tags":[717],"ppma_author":[230],"class_list":{"0":"post-19563","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-laureates","8":"tag-violence"},"pp_statuses_selecting_workflow":false,"pp_workflow_action":"current","pp_status_selection":"publish","authors":[{"term_id":230,"user_id":0,"is_guest":1,"slug":"prr","display_name":"P&RR","avatar_url":{"url":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Untitled-design.png","url2x":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/09\/Untitled-design.png"},"0":null,"1":"","2":"","3":"","4":"","5":"","6":"","7":"","8":""}],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19563","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=19563"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/19563\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/19566"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=19563"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=19563"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=19563"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/politicsrights.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ppma_author?post=19563"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Explora m\u00e1s libros galardonados<\/h4><\/span><\/div>
