Görselin öneminin arttığı, sosyal medyanın siyasi aktörler tarafından ustalıkla kullanıldığı günümüzde, siyasetin görselleştirilmesi dönüştürücü güçler olarak değerlendirilebilir; çünkü bu süreçler uluslararası ilişkilerin belirli yönlerini görünür kılarak çeşitli düzeylerdeki ilişkilerin durumunu anlama biçimini derinden etkilemektedir. Dijitaldeki anlatılar ve işaret ettikleri tahayyüller, sağ-popülist örneklerdeki gibi manipüle edildiğinde, daha hızlı yayılmakta ve etki yaratmaktadır. Kendine özgü bir söylem benimseyen, sosyal medya aracılığıyla görsel güvencesizlikler inşa eden sağ-popülist söylemin dokusunun spesifik kalıplara ve temsil tarzlarına uyduğu gözlemlenebilir. Farklı çehre ve veçheler de tartışmalı olan Türkiye-AB ilişkileri Avrupa genelindeki bu sağ-popülist tarzdan nasibini almış, çalışmada derinlemesine incelenmiştir. Metodolojik açıdan, çokmodlu söylem analizini kullanan bu makale, Almanya için Alternatif partisinin afişlerinde görselleştirilen Türkiye-AB ilişkilerini ve Avrupa Parlamentosu tarafından yayınlanan Türkiye-AB ilişkilerine dair görselleri birincil data olarak incelemektedir. Çalışmanın temel argümanı sağ-popülist üslubun Türkiye-AB ilişkilerini pejoratif bir şekilde dönüştürdüğü ve bu üslubun ulusal ve uluslararası düzeydeki alanlar arasında birbiriyle örtüşmek/yakınlaşmak ya da farklılaşıp/uzaklaşmak suretiyle farklı düzeylerde araçsallaştığıdır.

IMAGINING VIRTUAL POTEMKIN VILLAGES: READING TURKEY-EU RELATIONS THROUGH SOCIAL MEDIA VISUALS OF THE POPULIST RIGHT

In today's world, where the importance of the visual is increasing and social media is being skillfully used by populists, the visualization of politics can be considered as transformative forces, as these processes make certain aspects of international relations visible and profoundly affect the way of understanding the state of affairs. When digital narratives and the imaginaries they signal are manipulated, as in the case of right-populist examples, they spread faster and have more impact. It is observed that the texture of right-populist discourse conforms to specific patterns and modes of representation. Methodologically, using multimodal discourse analysis, this article examines Turkey-EU relations visualized by the Alternative for Germany party and the images on Turkey-EU relations published by the European Parliament. The main argument is that the right-populist tone transforms Turkey-EU relations pejoratively and this tone is instrumentalized at different levels by coverging or diverging between national and international spheres.
