In this edited volume, the authors argue how neo-liberal subjects respond to neoliberal uncertainties, risks, and threats in Turkey through either resilience or resistance, -or both-. The contributors form the book into two symbiotic axes. First, they display how global capitalism and neo-liberalism affect the neo-liberal subjects and their environment from different perspectives, and generate their vulnerabilities in Turkey. Moreover , they reveal how neo-liberal subjects execute resilience/resistance in order to survive against the vulnerabilities created by neo-liberalism and its agents. In doing so, the contributors demonstrate how resilience/resistance of neoliberal subjects makes themselves political. They show this by focusing on resistance and resilience from a variety of Turkish perspectives, including environmental groups, social classes, social media, and gender.
Rasim OEzgur Doenmez is professor of politics in the international relations department of Bolu Abant Izzet Baysal University.
