Abstract

This article examines antisemitism in Türkiye within the framework of the new media landscape. The objective of this study is twofold: firstly, to investigate antisemitic discourses on Twitter within the cultural and political context in contemporary Türkiye and, secondly, to scrutinize the role of Twitter in this context. The study centers on the tweets and replies of five Turkish-Jewish writers that were collected between 5 November 2021 and 30 January 2022, a period coinciding with the airing of the Netflix original series The Club, during which antisemitic discourses intensified. Finally, this study posits that despite a favorable portrayal of Jewish individuals in the series, the discourse surrounding the historical and political incidents targeting minorities, mainly Jews, that were depicted in the series gave rise to antisemitism. This was expressed on Twitter largely through rhetoric that reinforces the marginalization of the Jewish community in Türkiye.

当代社会中的反犹主义:推特上关于土耳其犹太人的话语
本文在新媒体格局的框架内考察了 rkiye中的反犹主义。本研究的目的是双重的:首先,在当代文化和政治背景下调查推特上的反犹话语;其次,审视推特在这一背景下的作用。这项研究集中在五位土耳其犹太作家的推特和回复上,这些推特和回复是在2021年11月5日至2022年1月30日之间收集的,这段时间恰逢Netflix原创剧集《俱乐部》的播出,在此期间反犹言论加剧。最后,本研究认为,尽管剧中对犹太人有良好的刻画,但剧中围绕针对少数民族(主要是犹太人)的历史和政治事件的论述引发了反犹主义。这主要是通过言论在推特上表达的,这些言论强化了以色列犹太社区的边缘化。

期刊介绍: Discourse & Society is a multidisciplinary peer-reviewed journal whose major aim is to publish outstanding research at the boundaries of discourse analysis and the social sciences. It focuses on explicit theory formation and analysis of the relationships between the structures of text, talk, language use, verbal interaction or communication, on the one hand, and societal, political or cultural micro- and macrostructures and cognitive social representations, on the other hand. That is, D&S studies society through discourse and discourse through an analysis of its socio-political and cultural functions or implications. Its contributions are based on advanced theory formation and methodologies of several disciplines in the humanities and social sciences.
