Local and National Daily Life

Local and National Everyday Life Book Description "The aesthetics of daily life in today's Turkey is shaped by two intertwined contexts. The first is a form of economic acculturation determined through global market conditions and affects non-economic areas of life... The second is a kind of identity-enhancing related to this." The demand for indigenization/localization that emerges as the essence (...) This is an aestheticization process in which locality is sometimes adorned with global market mechanisms and symbols and thus locality is reproduced... In fact, it reveals the potential of locality, which establishes itself in opposition to the center, to reproduce this opposition. And we are faced with a form of aestheticization that translates this into the language of politics: local and national.
