Kudüs Sorunu ve Ontolojik Güvenlik : Varoluşsal Kaygıların Aşılması

Abstract

Kudüs sorununun çözüm süreci şehir üzerindeki çatışan talep ve iddiaları nedeniyle hem Filistin'i hem de İsrail'i tavizler vermeye zorlayabilir. Şehrin iki tarafa ait ulusal kimliklerin önemli bir bileşeni olması, sözkonusu tavizlerin gündeme gelmesiyle birlikte biyografik anlatılara bağlı sınamaları ortaya çıkarabilecektir. Makale, Ontolojik Güvenlik teorik çerçevesini kullanarak, sözkonusu biyografik anlatıları, anlatı etkinleştirme veya devre dışı bırakma süreçleriyle değiştirmenin, dönüştürmenin veya geliştirmenin mümkün olup olmadığını analiz etmektedir.

Keywords

• Kudüs
• ontolojik güvenlik
• biyografik anlatılar

The Jerusalem Conflict And Ontological Security: Overcoming Existential Anxieties

Abstract

In the future, resolving the Jerusalem dispute might necessitate concessions from both Palestine and Israel due to their overlapping claims to the city. As Jerusalem is a crucial component of the national identities of both Palestinians and Israelis, any future peace deal involving such concessions could present challenges tied to biographical narratives emphasizing Jerusalem's importance. These narratives, deeply connected with national identities, underscore the significance of the city for both sides. Using the theoretical framework of Ontological Security, this article analyzes whether it is possible to change, transform, or develop these biographical narratives through processes of narrative activation or deactivation.

Keywords

• Jerusalem
• ontological security
• biographical narratives
• narrative activation
• narrative deactivation
