Each of the three papers comprising this dissertation deals with a different research question. The first paper explores the role of religion in the making of Turkish modernization and secularization, and critiques idealist accounts that treat Turkish secularism as an ideology that was "hostile to religion." Based on a critical discourse analysis of fifty-one Friday Sermons that Turkey's Presidency of Religious Affairs (PRA) published in 1928, I show that Turkish nationalist reformers rearticulated religious concepts and practices to cement their social ascendancy. Building on Therborn's (1980) discussion of ideology, I develop the concept of "hegemonic governmorality" to draw attention to the moral dimension in ideological struggles.

520 $a Each of the three papers comprising this dissertation deals with a different research question. The first paper explores the role of religion in the making of Turkish modernization and secularization, and critiques idealist accounts that treat Turkish secularism as an ideology that was "hostile to religion." Based on a critical discourse analysis of fifty-one Friday Sermons that Turkey's Presidency of Religious Affairs (PRA) published in 1928, I show that Turkish nationalist reformers rearticulated religious concepts and practices to cement their social ascendancy. Building on Therborn's (1980) discussion of ideology, I develop the concept of "hegemonic governmorality" to draw attention to the moral dimension in ideological struggles.
520 $a The second paper interrogates the puzzle of the adoption of the Turkish Civil Code (TCC) of 1926. One of the most radical of the Turkish reforms, the TCC replaced Islamic family law and abolished polygyny and men's right to unilateral divorce. Why and how did a group of powerful men abolish rights that all men, in theory, but themselves in particular, enjoyed? Using the concept of "hegemonic masculinity," (Connell 1987) and Demetriou's (2001) distinction between "internal" and "external" hegemony, I argue that the adoption of the TCC involved "reformist pragmatism" and a "progress-ive masculinity." The TCC kept intact fundamental assumptions about the gender hierarchy, but facilitated its transformation. This suggests that some "hegemonic masculinities" are more conducive to gender-egalitarian futures than others.
520 $a The third paper is based on seven-months of ethnographic research with religious women in a mixed-income neighborhood in Istanbul. Extending Thompson (1971) and Scott's (1976) "moral economy" framework, I analyze a material-moral problem that the women in my study identified: finding "suitable employment." I demonstrate that seeking "suitable employment" is a risk-averse strategy that women use to deal with the moral ambiguity of women's work outside the home. I show that Islamic concepts and practices are central to gendered expressions of morality, but argue that these concepts and practices do not have "fixed" meanings. My analysis shows that class position and aspirations, as well as marital status, animate the choices women make about work, producing a flexible moral economy of gender.
