Social Policy and Gender in Turkey in the 2000s
The AKP government represents a radical transformation in the field of social policy in Turkey. Neoliberalism and AKP's neopopulist policies, intertwined with political and cultural conservatism, form the basis of the welfare regime of the period. While social policy is one of the fundamental dynamics guiding the AKP government, women are at the center of social policy practices.
Social Policy and Gender in Turkey in the 2000s While discussing the impact of the social policy approach during the AKP period on women and gender roles, it shows how the absolute and systematic domination of the state and men over women and the motherhood and wifehood roles assigned to women are compatible with the social policy practices of the AKP period. The book covers a wide range of topics, from "sexuality and reproduction" and "domestic work time distribution" to "harmonization of work and family life" and "women's poverty" and "violence", and the new issues that are being tried to be established between women and the AKP government through social policy. It points out how the consensus deepens gender inequalities.
