ESKİ TERÖRİZM, YENİ TERÖRİZM: 9/11 VE ESKİMEYEN TERÖRİZM SÖYLEMİ

Abstract

Bu makalede “yeni terörizm” kavramı eleştirel olarak analiz edilmektedir. 11 Eylül 2001 Saldırıları’nı (9/11) takip eden süreçte yeni terörizm kavramı bir siyasal söyleme dönüşerek, Batılı toplumlarda da doğal biçimde içkin olarak var olan yıkıcı şiddeti maskelemek ve yenidenyeryurt sahibi yapmak için kullanılmıştır. Bu argüman bağlamında, Batılı devletlerin küresel terörizm söylemi ve terörle mücadele politikaları ele alınarak yeni terörizm üzerine mevcut yaklaşımlar sorunsallaştırılacak ve aşındırılmaya çalışılacaktır. Bu makaleyle, Türkiye’de eksikliği görülen eleştirel terörizm çalışmalarına; ilk olarak yeni terörizmin önce akademik alanda ortaya çıktığı ve daha sonra Batılı devletlerin tekeline almaya çalıştığı bir siyasal söyleme sıkıştığı savunularak katkıda bulunulması amaçlanmaktadır. İkinci olarak, yeni terörizmin siyasallaşmasına bağlı olarak analitik değerini kaybettiği savunulmaktadır.

OLD TERRORISM, NEW TERRORISM: ‘9/11’ AND THE UNCHANGED TERRORISM DISCOURSE

Abstract

This article critically analyses the concept of ‘new terrorism’. Following the attacks on 11th of September 2001 (aka 9/11) the term of new terrorism transformed into a political discourse and was deployed to efface and re-territorialize the destructive violence which was organically embedded in the Western societies as no exception. In the light of this argument, terrorism discourses and counter-terrorism policies applied by the Western states in international society, some orthodox approaches on new terrorism will be problematized and corroded. This article aims to contribute to critical terrorism studies which apparently lack interest in Turkey in the following ways: firstly, the study suggests that the term of new terrorism is a concept that was invented in the academic field, and then confined into a political discourse. Secondly, it argues that the new terrorism has lost its analytic value as since it has been highly politicised.
