This one-day workshop, commemorating Turkey’s Republic centenary, reexamines Turkish secularism from its inception to contemporary discussions about desecularisation under the Justice and Development Party. Renowned scholars will offer fresh perspectives on this topic, addressing complex dynamics in state-religion relations in Turkey and its global context, shedding light on secularism’s future prospects, secularisation, authoritarianism, and religious populism.
The workshop is free to attend but registration is required: https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/100-years-of-turkish-secularism-issues-debates-prospects-tickets-689994551277#:~:text=100%20Years%20of%20Turkish%20Secularism%3A%20Issues%2C%20Debates%2C%20Prospects
