    Kentlilik Üzerine Düşünmek
    (2012) Şen, Seher
    Kentlilik kavramı kentsel çalışmalar alanının zorlu konularından biridir. Kavra--mın zorluğu sosyal, kültürel, politik ve ekonomik pek çok farklı alanın kesişiminde yeralmasıyla yakından ilişkilidir. Kentlilik için üzerinde uzlaşılabilecek kolay bir tanımıhemen vermek güçtür: bazen köylülüğün karşıtı olarak tanımlanmakta, bazen bellibir toplumsal grubun tüketim kalıplarına işaret etmekte, bazense medenilik veya bel--li bir politik farkındalık anlamında kullanılmaktadır. Bu haliyle "ötekiler"|e etkileşimeolanak sağlayarak veya elitist bir şekilde statükonun korunmasını getirerek içerme vedışlama mekanizmalarına da gönderme yapmaktadır. Bu yazı kentliliğin modernleş--me tarihine paralel olarak kent literatüründe nasıl tartışılagelindiğinin izini sürerekkavramın hem üstlendiği işlevi hem de ürettiği değeri tartışmayı amaçlamaktadır. Ay--rıca günümüzde daha hakça bir kent yaşamı talebi olarak yorumlayabileceğimiz Hen--ri Lefebvre'nin "kent hakkı" kavramı çerçevesinde kentliliği nasıl yeniden düşünebi--Ieceğimiz sorusunu ele almaktadır.

    Are You a Muslim?': Contested Transnational Diaspora Identity of Alevis as a Minority Within a Minority Through Alevi Organizations in the Netherlands
    (Taylor & Francis inc, 2025) Sen, Seher
    This article focuses on the contested process of identity formation among the Alevi diaspora through an examination of Alevi organizations in the Netherlands, by considering various actors, situations, events, and interventions or reactions within asymmetrical power relations. In doing so, it argues that over the last two decades, Alevi identity has been positioned and repositioned through such questions as 'Who are you?' and 'Are you a Muslim?' constantly asked by different actors. These questions -especially the ones asked by states- require Alevis to situate themselves to Islam and invite them to explain themselves in relation to Sunni Muslims, in both Turkey and Europe, albeit in different contexts. This study claims that both the Turkish state's direct question to Alevis, a minority in Turkey, and the Dutch state's indirect question to diaspora Alevis, a minority within a minority in the Netherlands are prominent positioning factors in the identity formation process of transnational diaspora Alevis in the Netherlands.

    Understanding Urban Alevism Through Its Socio-Spatial Manifestations: Cemevis in Zmir
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Sen, Seher; Soner, Bayram Ali
    Cemevis emerged as the spaces of the Alevi identity in contemporary cities of Turkey. On the basis of in-depth interviews conducted in zmir with the heads of cemevi associations, this study claims that, while cemevis were enforced by the process of urbanization, they have been transforming the Alevi practices and collective organizations and eventually constructing a new type of Alevism as to religious practices, community institutions and collective imagination. Though no legal-political recognition has yet been granted to cemevis as the places of worship, they have established themselves as central institutions of urban Alevis with their extensive use beyond the limited oppositional categorization of culture-religion. This denial of legal status which has been seen as the violation of basic human rights is one of the main constitutive dynamics in the ongoing debates on Turkey's Alevi question. It is to such an extent that the denial of legal status to cemevis has today come to be identified by Alevi groupings with the denial of Alevi collective identity itself.
