107 pages In this study, the recent history of censorship policies over mainstream media in Turkey is researched. Two contradictory periods in media- 28th February and AKP periods; provide vast amounts of examples on censorship that can be compared under a theoretical framework which discuss the relations of freedom of press, democracy, state and market. The study provides a structural analysis that would present “power relations” as a main determinant of censorship within the media industry. Despite there are several articles and books that present distinct narratives of censorship in Turkey, an academic paper that try to link those narratives with the terminology on power bloc would be meaningful to de-construct the discourse on the “independence” of media. |
