“…Despite its geographical and historical proximity to WEIRD cultures, Turkey is considered different from WEIRD societies on a variety of social, economic and cultural dimensions (Cemalcilar et al, 2021; Muthukrishna et al, 2020). Particularly over the last two decades, Turkey has become increasingly authoritarian (e.g., Tansel, 2018) and socioeconomically segregated (Chancel et al, 2022; Ozdogan, 2021). These factors have been linked to changes in societal dynamics (Borsuk & Levin, 2021).…”

Several studies have investigated factors guiding children's decisions when learning from others, although less is known about factors that govern children's decisions when they transfer knowledge to others. Here we asked whether children would privilege ingroup members when teaching and, if so, whether this tendency would persist when transferring different kinds of information (conventional norms vs. moral norms). In Experiment 1 (N = 24), we first replicated ingroup preference based on minimal group membership with 5-and 6-year-old Turkish children. In Experiment 2 (N = 64), we examined whether children would consider group membership and the type of knowledge to be transferred in their teaching intentions. Children were introduced to two ignorant targets differing in their group membership and were asked to choose one or both of these targets to teach conventional or moral norms. Children were more likely to choose ingroup members for teaching conventional norms and both members when teaching moral norms. Further, this trend was particularly evident among girls. These results suggest that children make flexible teaching decisions considering the social attributes of the learners and raise interesting questions regarding the mechanisms underlying children's information transfer. Public Significance StatementChildren consider various factors when choosing whom to learn from, although much less is known about children's selectivity when teaching others. We show that children intend to teach conventional norms selectively to ingroup members and moral norms to both ingroup and outgroup members. These results suggest that children make flexible teaching decisions taking both the nature of the information and the recipient's social attributes into account and provide further evidence for children's active role in cultural transmission.

“…Against this backdrop, the study focuses on the recent migration of well-educated Turks to Germany and their educational goals and achievements in the host country. Indeed, the antidemocratic and unlawful practices that started after the coup attempt led to a debilitating brainintellectual drain (Ozdogan, 2020). German has hosted a significant part of that kind of migration, having gradually increased until 2019.…”

<i>The purpose of this research is to determine the educational status, problems, goals, and expectations of an educated Turkish migrant group who had to migrate to Germany after 2016 due to some political pressure. The process of data collection was carried out between the months of January and September 2021. As a qualitative data collection tool, a semi-structured interview form was applied. After the literature review, open-ended questions were prepared in the interview form in order to determine the views of the participants. The target group of the study consists of 25 interviewees who migrated from Turkey to Germany after 2016. All the participants were selected among the ones who wanted to involve voluntarily in the research, and their identities were kept anonymous. For the timing of the interviews, a convenient time was agreed upon with the participants. Due to the pandemic, the participants were interviewed via e-mail, telephone, or digital media platforms, such as Zoom and Skype. In the research, it was found that participants primarily aimed to work on a job suitable for their education level. Thereupon, they have tried to fulfill the conditions such as language learning and diploma equivalency. While some have achieved their goals, it was seen that the majority of them are making an effort for those purposes. It is anticipated that such studies will contribute to the shaping of immigration policies of the hosting countries.</i>

A Dual State in Turkey?

In research on authoritarianism in Turkey and beyond, there is a growing interest in Ernst Fraenkel’s concept of the dual state from the Nazi era. However, upon closer inspection, these articles lack a systematic application and implementation of Fraenkel’s concept. Mostly, there is no discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of such a ‘diachronic’ conceptual transfer. This case study therefore puts particular emphasis on the methodological issues and on the possibilities and limitations of an ‘updated’ application. As a result, it turns out that Fraenkel’s categories are useful tools to trace how the Turkish administration and judiciary are reorganized along a logic of prerogative power. Fraenkel’s state-centred approach can thus contribute to close a gap left by alternative approaches. However, among the weaknesses even of Dreier and Meierhenrich’s supplement is that the time dimension was, respectively is, not sufficiently taken into account. Dual state structures can be more sustainable than originally assumed by Fraenkel.
