Abstract

The main emphasis of this paper is on the social and cultural implications of three salient trends in the media scene of the 1990s decade in Turkey, namely (1) the marginalization of state broadcasting; (2) the phenomenal growth of infotainment channels and tabloid journalism; and (3) the emergence and subsequent mainstreaming of an alternative "Islamic" public sphere. The paper provides a brief outline of how ongoing changes in media markets have fostered these trends. But the focal point of discussion will be on how they have fed into, and become intertwined with, the insurgent cultural politics of the 1990s.

Özet

Bu makale, 1990'larda Türkiye'deki medya dünyasında görülen üç çarpıcı eğilimin sosyal ve kültürel etkilerini incelemektedir: (1) devlet televizyon yayıncılığının marjinalleşmesi; (2) magazin kanallarının ve "bulvar gazeteciliğinin" patlaması; ve (3) alternatif bir İslami kamu alanının oluşması. Makale, medya piyasasında yaşanan değişikliklerin bu eğilimleri nasıl ortaya çıkardığının kısa bir özetini sunmaktadır. Bu yazının esas amacı, bu eğilimlerin dönemin kültür siyaseti ile nasıl iç içe geçmiş olduğunu incelemektir.
