Kimlik Mücadelesinde Alevilik

What is Alevism? What is its relationship with Islam? Is it the essence of Islam or a sect or a unique example of faith?

Did Alevism form in the first separation of Islam, or is it the synthesis of the traditional beliefs of the people who were forcibly Islamized? What are the historical and theological sources of Alevism? Who are the real faith leaders of Alevism? What does Ali, the basic concept of Alevism, actually mean?

Why did the rulers in all traditional and modern periods not like Alevism, why do they assimilate it? Why has Alevism been a problem throughout its history? What was the source of this problem in the Seljuk and Ottoman periods, and what was it in the Republic period? Why are Alevi settlements being provoked, why are social prejudices against Alevis being fed?
Where does Alevism fit into the history of Anatolian class struggle? Is Alevism a historically leftist attitude? Is it possible to be a rightist without becoming alienated from Alevi identity? Does Alevism have an ethnic character?

What is the reason for the divisions experienced by the Alevi identity? What are the problems of the struggle for institutionalization in modern conditions? Is Alevism a solution option in today's conditions? How is it possible to solve the Alevi problem?

In today's conditions, where Alevi self-awareness and organization are developing, Alevism in the Identity Struggle answers these questions.
