Abstract

This paper would like to discuss how the separatist movement in Chechnya and Aceh developed and grew during the process of nation-building. This paper found that the Chechen and Aceh separatism was grown out of ethno-religious sentiments and the autocratic policy of the central government. Finally, Chechnya and Aceh had different ways to solve the problem of separatism. Russian government approaches the Chechen separatism issue by “Chechenizing” the issue. However, the Indonesian government used a more holistic approach by opening political channels to all of the parties involved during the conflict to finally agree on a new system.

Ulus İnşası Sürecinde Ayrılıkçılık Hareketi: Çeçen ve Açe Örneği

Abstract

Bu çalışma Çeçenya ve Açe'deki ayrılıkçı hareketi ulus inşası sırasında nasıl geliştiğini tartışmak istiyor. Bu makale Çeçen ve Açe ayrılıkçılığının etno-dini duygulardan ve merkezi hükümetin otokratik politikasından kaynaklandığını iddia etmiştir. Son olarak, Çeçenya ve Açe'nin ayrılıkçılık sorununu çözmenin farklı yolları olduğunu da kanıtlanmıştır. Rus hükümeti, Çeçen ayrılıkçılık konusuna konuyu "Çeçenleştirerek" yaklaşmıştır. Endonezya hükümeti, nihayetinde yeni bir sistem üzerinde anlaşmaya varmak için çatışma sırasında yer alan tüm taraflara siyasi kanallar açarak daha bütünsel bir yaklaşım kullanmıştır.
