Günümüzde sosyal hareketler ve dijital platformlar arasındaki ilişkiye odaklanan önemli bir tartışma

vardır. Bu çalışmada, 15 Temmuz 2016’da Türkiye’de gerçekleşen darbe girişimindeki bazı sosyal medya

platformları’nın (Twitter ve Facebook) oynamış oldukları roller analiz edilmiştir. Bununla birlikte, 15

Temmuz darbe girişimi sırasında Türkiye Cumhuriyeti vatandaşlarının sosyal ve dijital medyayı nasıl

kullandıklarını anlatan web analizi yer almaktadır. Bu araştırmada nitel içerik analizi kullanılmaktadır ve

bu analizde: (1) Twitter’da yer alan tweetlerin ve trend hashtaglerin incelenmesi; (2) Facebook sayfalarının

ve gruplarının fotoğraflar, videolar ve yorumlar dahil edilerek incelenmesi yer almaktadır. Bu çalışma,

Facebook ve Twitter’ın eylem yapan darbe karşıtları arasında; etkin bir iletişimin sağlanması, etkili

seferberlik ve ortak bir kimlik oluşturma süreci ile vatandaşların Fethullahçı Terör Örgütü tarafından

organize edilen darbe girişimine direnişinde hayati bir rol oynadığını göstermektedir. Çalışma ayrıca, sosyal

web sitelerinde paylaşılan fotoğrafların ve videoların, 15 Temmuz darbe girişimi sırasında ve sonrasında

nasıl motive edici role sahip olduklarını gösteriyor.

There is currently a considerable degree of discussion focusing on the relationship between social

movements and digital platforms. This paper investigates the role played by several social media platforms

(Twitter and Facebook) in the coup attempt in Turkey on July 15th, 2016. It includes an analysis of web

content to establish ways to understand the usage of social and digital media by Turkish citizens on the July

15 coup. The research uses qualitative content analysis, including: (1) an examination of tweets and trending

hashtags on Twitter; and (2) an examination of Facebook pages and groups, including photographs, videos

and comments. This study indicates that Twitter and Facebook played a vital role in the resistance of citizens

against the coup attempt, which was organised by the Gulenist terrorist organisation, through the provision

of effective communication between activists, along with their effective mobilisation and the process of

establishing a common identity. The study also demonstrates how photographs and videos shared on social

websites became positive motivators both during and following the 15th of July coup attempt.
