ABSTRACT This study examines discursive articulations in mainstream news media in Turkey, through which the Islamist/secularist divide is imagined. Building upon discourse-theoretical analysis and affect theory, the study states that news media become the ultimate domain in which polarization is fuelled by affective forces. To illustrate this point, I draw upon the representations of Istanbul’s conquest by Ottoman forces, as a privileged signifier in articulations of Turkishness. I examine the opinion articles published in mainstream news media, following the framework of ‘reading for affect’. Accordingly, I identify two contrasting moods attributing affective value to Istanbul’s conquest. Hyperbolic narratives are central to Islamist imaginaries, as they attach utmost significance to Istanbul’s conquest. Conversely, secularist imaginaries are mostly built upon satire of disdain especially in relation to the celebrations of the conquest. Rhetorical works play a pivotal role in the signification of the city’s conquest. Rather than plainly constructing networks of meanings, they are the affective elements putting Istanbul’s conquest on the stage. From that vantage point, the study argues that affect and signification are not autonomous layers of discourse. Affective intensities are indeed articulated in chains of signifiers that conclude in the sedimentation and fixation of meanings.

ABSTRACTIn ‘A politics of reminding: Khoisan resurgence and environmental justice in South Africa’s Sarah Baartman district’, Burnett et al. scrutinize the memory activism of the Gamtkwa Khoisan Council, which is part of the wider ‘Khoisan resurgence’ sweeping across post-apartheid South Africa. Although the authors missed important nuances, they also pointed out flaws in the way I used Niezen’s ‘therapeutic history’ [Niezen, R. (2009). The rediscovered self: Indigenous identity and cultural justice. McGill-Queen’s Press] in my work to account for why Khoisan activists turn to the past. I therefore not only respond to their criticism, but also revise aspects of my theoretical framework. Therapeutic history is not divorced from material concerns. Nor is it representative of all engagements with the past by indigenous people or simply the opposite of academic history. Instead, by drawing on my ethnographic fieldwork and theorizing alongside the Khoisan, I show how it captures emic discourses on the past that entangle notions of indigenous identity, healing, and history in order to resist settler colonialism and its oppressive etic histories. While the concept of therapeutic history has its limitations, it effectively highlights indigenous people’s agency in the face of settler colonialism in South Africa and elsewhere.KEYWORDS: Therapeutic historyemic historyetic historysettler colonialismKhoisan activism AcknowledgementsI am grateful to the two anonymous peer reviewers who provided invaluable comments. I am also indebted to scholars Egon Bauwelinck and Francesco Longo for taking my arguments seriously when they were still in their infancy. Finally, I also thank Chiara Verbuyst Pugliese for her insightful feedback.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 The correct way of referring to the indigenous people of South Africa remains a hotly debated issue (Bam, Citation2021, pp. xxi-xxviii). I am aware of the controversies surrounding ‘Khoisan’ and I use peoples’ personal preferences whenever I can. ‘Khoisan’ is nevertheless my default option because it was the most common form of identification I encountered during my ethnographic fieldwork.2 The Traditional and Khoi-San Leadership Act has since been deemed unconstitutional because there has been insufficient public participation (Broughton, Citation2023).3 Khoisan activists also suffer the aftermath of racial discrimination by virtue of their classification as ‘Coloured’. However, these grievances should be analytically distinguished from those related to ongoing settler-colonial domination (Veracini & Verbuyst, Citation2020).4 ‘Coloured’ for instance remains an option on the census. It is also used as a metric in the context of affirmative action policies.Additional informationFundingThis work was supported by the Fonds Wetenschappelijk Onderzoek under Grant 12ZT622N.Notes on contributorsRafael VerbuystRafael Verbuyst is an anthropologist and histor
