So upsetting. I've greatly benefited from Suzette Grillot wisdom and dedication to reward the potential in everyone, especially to those in the international community. Because of her support & vision, we've felt accepted and loved in times when it was easy to feel the opposite.




On Wednesday, February 15, at 6 pm, there will be a candlelight vigil for Turkey and Syria earthquake victims on University of Washington's campus.


My husband @emirdemirtas will host a Turkish-inspired pop-up at Rachel’s Bagels on Wednesday, with all proceeds going to the earthquake relief effort. 60 other restaurants will join them in donating funds! And they were featured at the The Seattle Times 🧡 seattletimes.com/life/food-drin…

I also have new working papers using the data from these directories with @MBerfinBaydar and Nela Mrchkovska. We study how specific economic policies impacted different ethno-religious groups and the emergence of women entrepreneurs in Istanbul! Stay tuned!

Congrats to Political Economy Forum faculty Asli Cansunar and alum Nela Mrchkovska on their forthcoming paper in JHPE's special issue on the political economy of the interwar period👇

New in @JHPE with Nela Mrchkovska : 🏫Lit on state-building: teachers play a pivotal role in enhancing state control. 👩🏫We ask: do teachers strengthen state-society relations in rural areas in newly founded and weak states? 🇹🇷We study early Republican-era Turkey (1927–35)..

“Teachers! Next generations will be your achievement”. I couldn’t agree more, though teachers' role in helping state-building could be limited in rural areas with substantial language barriers and high levels of state bias. 👏🏼👏🏼my dear friend Nela Mrchkovska and Asli Cansunar

I am incredibly honored to share that Berfin Baydar and I received the Weber Best Paper Award by APSA Religion & Politics Section 11 for our paper "Homogenizing the High Street: The Economic Cleansing of Minority Elites through Fiscal Discrimination." 🎈🧿 DukePoliticalScience Political Economy Forum
