Shrinking Public, Politics Melting into Air and Possibilities of a Way-out
Since the late 1970s, we have been living under neo-liberal hegemony. The most obvious aspect of this globally influential hegemony is, inarguably, the constant and violent attack of the “private” on the “public.” Moreover, by exploiting the existing overlap between the terms “public” and “state,” or in other words, by activating available associations between the two terms, neo-liberal ideology is able to present its attacks on the “public” as if they target “state” and “state intervention.” By doing so, it manages to present itself as a sincere and loyal pursuer of the deep-rooted libertarian tradition of classical liberalism and, therefore, to conceal its special tie to the state, and at the same time corners its opponents right from the beginning, into a position of allegedly defending the “state” and “state intervention.”

Tarihin türkiye’de gelişmekte zorlanmasının nedenlerinden ilki, bu ülkenin tarihçiler cemaatinin ezici çoğunluğu itibariyle “olayanlatıcılık” gibi Batı’da çoktan aşılmış olan, dar, kısıtlayıcı ve tarihçiliği öldüren bir tutumun içine kendini hapsetmiş olmasıdır. Böylece bizim tarihçilerimiz, “tekerrür eden olgular”ı tarih diye algılarken, etkileşimleri, dönüşümleri, yapıları veya yapıbozumlarını ıskalamaktadır. Oysa tarih, ancak tekerrür etmeyeni araştırırsa tarih olur.
