Counter-Conduct and the (de-)Europeanisation Discourse in Turkey
Original language description
Since 2007, Turkey witnessed a reversal of EU-related reforms and the loss of the EU as a positive/normative reference point. We witness how Turkish elites question, oppose, and criticise Europeanization but do not fully reject it. Europeanization reflects motivations and abilities of the domestic groups to conceptualize a Europeanization mechanism and investigates how political elites use Europeanization to promote their particular agendas making it a legitimizing force in the domestic discourses. This paper analyses the process of Turkish Europeanization from the point of discursive institutionalism, which investigates how political goals of competing political forces influence Europeanization discourse. The paper investigates how domestic debates employ the discourses of EU accession; a lot has been written on the Europeanization discourse of the AKP and the main opposition party (CHP). This analysis focuses instead on the competing EU-Turkey narrative of the Gülen movement, once an ally of AKP and since 2013 one of its key critics, to assess how a domestic social group uses Europeanization. It claims that since the movement had been forced by the government to operate in exile, it uses its established links of communication to promote its pro-democratic, pro-European, pro-Western image in order to undermine the reputation of the rival (AKP) and to strengthen its position of a diaspora in exile.
