Would You Like to Know Something about Islam? by Mohammad Masood Ahmed
The political atmosphere of the late 1990s is shaped by the pursuit of a new basis for social solidarity to be consistent with the market. With its main idea on the complementarity of state, market and civil society and its model of citizen both as a market actor and a responsible member of communities; the Third Way has achieved to be the response to that pursuit. Whether the term third way is used or not, its main principles have gained hegemonic position on the world scale. In this sense, the Third Way has not only become the main model for the social democratic parties to adopt a more market-friendly attitude and to gain political power in the second phase of neo-liberal period, but also played an essential role in further penetration of market relations into the social life. Its impact on Turkish politics can be observed in the attempts of political parties to acquire this hegemonic discourse in 2000s. The JDP has been more convincing in its attempt, as a result of its market oriented and community based structure, which indicates that in Turkish context this hegemonic discourse gained a more conservatist manner, if it doesn't show the immanent conservatism of the Third Way.| SKU | Unavailable |
