Abstract

ABSTRACT Following the coup attempt of 15 July 2016, the Turkish government declared a state of emergency that would last for two years. In this paper, we focus on an understudied aspect of this period, protest repression during the state of emergency, using an original dataset of protest bans issued in 2007–2019. Engaging with the theoretical claims of emergency scholarship, our paper demonstrates that emergency powers were used to target areas, groups, and issues that were not related to the ‘urgency’ underpinning emergency rule. Moreover, such derogations of rights were perpetuated after the termination of the state of emergency within so-called ordinary legality. These practices were nevertheless embedded in the already authoritarian political-institutional context of Turkey and its layered history of emergencies.

镇压无例外:土耳其紧急状态期间禁止抗议的研究(2016-2018)

2016年7月15日发生未遂政变后，土耳其政府宣布进入为期两年的紧急状态。在本文中，我们使用2007-2019年发布的抗议禁令原始数据集，重点关注这一时期未被充分研究的方面，即紧急状态期间的抗议镇压。与紧急奖学金的理论主张相结合，我们的论文表明，紧急权力被用于针对与支撑紧急规则的“紧迫性”无关的地区、群体和问题。此外，这种对权利的克减在紧急状态结束后在所谓的普通合法性范围内继续存在。然而，这些做法植根于土耳其本已专制的政治制度背景及其多层次的紧急事件历史。
