Workshop 02

Title: “The Rise of Cancel Culture: In search of Peace and Redemptive Discourse in Digital Media”

In this workshop, the rise of cancel culture in digital media will be analysed in the context of Turkish politics. While the polarization among people deepens, the possibility of peace and redemptive discourse is lessening. There appears a digital media trend that has a threatening language and aggressive mood for immigrants, political rivals, and enemies. To combat that culture and trend, counter-hate culture activities can be applied to increase the possibility of sustainable peace and redemption.
