Themes

The Intellectual Core of Aykırı Medya

• Authority and Power

  Examines the forms of authority that govern our lives, from the state to the workplace, from the family to digital platforms. It asks how power endures not only through repression but through obedience, habit, dependence and consent.

• Freedom and Selfhood

  Asks whether freedom means merely not being obstructed or being able to have a say over one's own life. It focuses on the relation between identity, will, responsibility and social expectation.

• Thought and Critique

  Explores ways of questioning the assumptions presented to us as natural and unchangeable. It treats critique not as mere opposition but as a method that uncovers an idea's grounds, interests and unseen consequences.

• Core Concepts

  Explains concepts such as freedom, equality, domination, solidarity, property, authority and the commons within the life of today. Rather than building a dictionary, it shows how concepts shift meaning in current conflicts.

Institutions, Economy and the Order of Knowledge

• Law, Justice and Punishment

  Examines the distance between law and justice through everyday experiences of seeking one's rights. From courts to policing, from digital sanctions to prisons, it asks whom the penal order protects and whom it leaves outside.

• Labour and Economy

  Takes up how work, wages, debt, property and insecurity shape our lives. It lifts the economy out of abstract figures and reads it through time, the body, livelihood and relations of power.

• Technology and the Commons

  Starts from the idea that technology is not a neutral instrument. Through artificial intelligence, platforms, surveillance, data ownership, open source and the digital commons, it asks in whose hands technological decisions gather.
