Among my plans for the next year or two:

“The project aims to examine the transformations occurring in the production, circulation, and reception of religious knowledge in the context of Türkiye as a result of digitalisation. The growing importance of digital platforms, particularly YouTube, as spaces in which religious knowledge is communicated, interpreted, and debated is also reshaping the ways religious authority is constructed and legitimised.”

I’m looking forward to contributing as International Advisor to this new project, “Kürsü 5.0: Religious Discourse and Authority in the Context of YouTube Türkiye”, led by Mehmet Ali Başak.Details:#Türkiye
