This article examines Turkish television's "woman's voice" talk-show format, finding that it opens up a forum where women of rural backgrounds, who were formerly invisible in the Turkish public sphere, are able to voice firsthand the injustices they face in their family lives. Audience reception analysis of woman's voice programs reveals that whereas urban viewers reject the shows as vulgar and unimportant, rural-urban migrants celebrate the programs as indicative of women's status and thus potentially political. The article investigates the underlying causes of this difference. It argues that viewers attempt to negotiate their class position through cultural consumption, ultimately keeping the women's rights issues that woman's voice programs raise off the political agenda.
This study discusses Habermas's notions of 'public sphere' and 'power', and suggests a novel approach by complementing Habermas's limited take on the 'political' with Bourdieu's notion of 'symbolic power'. To this end, 'cultural citizenship' is used as a helpful concept. The study draws on the analysis of a Turkish talk show format 'woman's voice' (WV) and its audience. It is proposed that viewing WV should be considered a political activity. An analysis of women's first-hand narrations of the domestic and symbolic violence in their lives reveals that many women continue to live under the patriarchal authority of the 'honour code' and the Turkish ruling elite have until recently neglected the needs of these women. WV provides a sphere where the needs and problems of these women are discussed for the first time in Turkish broadcasting history. It is shown with examples from field research that WV may potentially create subversive subject-positions among the disadvantaged groups of women, such as rural-urban migrants.

Türk tarihçiliğinin mümtaz isimlerinden birisi olan Prof.Dr. Osman Turan ilmî hayatının yanı sıra aktif siyasetle de iştigal etmiş ve bu minvalde önce Demokrat Parti'de daha sonra da Adalet Partisi'nde milletvekilliği görevinde bulunmuştur. Turan her iki dönemde de iktidar partisinin mensubu konumunda olsa da muhalefet ettiği konularda görüşlerini dile getirmekten imtina etmeyen bir hüviyet sergilemiştir. "Merkez sağ" niteliğini haiz mezkûr iki partiye de bilhassa kültürel, ilmî ve manevî politikalar bağlamında önemli tenkitleri "içeriden" yönelten Turan'ın Adalet Partisi'ndeki siyasî hayatı, 1960'lı yılların siyasi kompozisyonunu ve Türk sağının çatallaşarak MHP, MNP gibi farklı partilerin ortaya çıkmasını anlamak açısından da önemlidir.
Abstract. GPS campaign measurements are frequently used in order to determine geophysical phenomena such as tectonic motion, fault zones, landslides, and volcanoes. When observation duration is shorter, the accuracy of coordinates are degraded and the accuracy of point velocities are affected. The accuracies of the geodetic site velocities from a global network of International GNSS Service (IGS) stations were previously investigated using only PPP. In this study, we extend which site velocities will also be assessed, including fundamental relative positioning. PPP-derived results will also be evaluated to see the effect of reprocessed JPL products, single-receiver ambiguity resolution, repeating survey campaigns minimum 3 days at the site, and eliminating noisier solutions prior to the year 2000. To create synthetic GPS campaigns, 18 globally distributed, continuously operating IGS stations were chosen. GPS data were processed comparatively using GAMIT/GLOBK v10.6 and GIPSY-OASIS II v6.3. The data of synthetic campaign GPS time series were processed using a regression model accounting for the linear and seasonal variation of the ground motion. Once the velocities derived from 24 h sessions were accepted as the truth, the results from sub-sessions were compared with the results of 24 h and hypothesis testing was applied for the significance of the differences. The major outcome of this study is that on global scales (i.e. over long distances) with short observation sessions, the fundamental relative positioning produces results similar to PPP. The reliability of the velocity estimation for GPS horizontal baseline components has now been improved to about 85 % of the average for observation durations of 12 h.
