Publisher: | SAGE Publications | Abstract: | This study explores the newly constructed female identities of the Early Republican Era in Turkiye (1923-1945). Through a thematic analysis of three contemporary women's magazines (Aile Dostu, Ev-Is, and Asrin Kadini) it aims to examine how conceptualizations of marriage and family were refashioned in the magazines to fit in the images within the newly constructed domestic ideologies of the state. We argue that the selfless subjectivities offered by the magazines point to dialogically constructed narrative identities which are not stable but fluid. The women's magazines of the Era aimed to reconstruct new identities by representing the Republic's ideas and official ideology to its people. Thus, they became one of the tools of social engineering in the way of transforming the nation into a modern, Westernized one. Analysing these magazines help us identify the repertoire of subjectivities and narrative identities from which women drew while making sense of their selves during an era of transformation. | Description: | Article; Early Access | URI: | https://doi.org/10.1177/03631990231168541 https://hdl.handle.net/11147/13624 |
