Alevis

Türkiye is the country of political dullness, which can actually be considered an "advantage" for the new edition of a book. It is both strange and tragic that a book published many years ago is so current.

When these interviews appeared in the Radikal newspaper, the issue of Alevism, which was often considered "evil", became the focus of discussion again. In this edition, Çalislar enriches the discussion areas with new texts on this still fresh and controversial issue.

Opinion leaders, journalists, writers, NGOs, publishers, parliamentarians, activists and those who speak on behalf of Religious Affairs give answers that are very suitable for deepening and reflection. Questions are filtered through the consciousness of experience; The narrator goes over and dusts off the thing he is talking about, and wants it to be talked about...

The number of cemevi, which was around 200 in the early 2000s, reached 600 in 2010 and 1347 today.

One of the most important dimensions of Turkey's democratization is the legal regulations to be made regarding Alevis. In the book in your hand, you will find the opinions of representatives of many different segments of the Alevi society.

Who are Alevis? You will be able to see a "group photo" of what kind of historical past they have.
