| Thesis title | Hate Crime in Turkey |
| Abstract | Since nineteen eighties hate crime has become a key phenomenon to explain violent acts towards vulnerable groups within a population, in Turkey the concept has been used for the last decade. My research is about the ongoing hate crime debate in Turkey. It intends to demonstrate how hate crime, as a contemporary criminological concept, has been introduced to the public discourse. I examine how hate crime incidents against ethnic/religious minorities and LGBT population are represented in the printed press, the role of the human rights based social organizations which contribute to the process with a campaign for hate crime law and the formulations on the prospective hate crime law. |
