1000 KORKAĞA 60 YILLIK BİR HAYAT HİKAYESİ
February 17, 2018 by
Nermin Abadan Unat
Nermin Abadan Unat’ın hayatına sığdırdıklarını kırpın 1000 korkağa 60 yıllık hayat hikâyesi çıkar
ALMANYA’YA göçün 50. yılında, göç olgusunu küresel ve ulusal anlamda kavrayabilmek için Nermin Abadan Unat’ın Bitmeyen Göç -Konuk İşçilikten Ulus Ötesi Yurttaşlığa kitabını mutlaka okumak gerekir.
Kitabın başındaki Teşekkür’de çalışmasının özelliğini vurguluyor:
“Bu kitap, 1963’ten bu yana Türk kadın ve erkek emekçilerin yeni bir yaşam kurmak üzere izledikleri sıkıntılı yolları anlatmak, karşılaştıkları güçlükleri açıklamak, oluşturulabilecek politikaları önermek, davet edildikleri, seçtikleri, gittikleri ülkelerin hukuki, siyasi, sosyal ve ekonomik önlemlerle mevzuatlarını belirtmek amacıyla yazdığım kitap ve makalelerin, Türkiye içi ve dışı alan araştırmalarının bir özetidir.
Kitap bunun ötesinde, uluslararası göçün küreselleşme süreci karşısında almış olduğu yeni biçimler, oluşturduğu yeni kavramlar ve kuramların yorumudur. Kısaca, ömür boyu sürdürdüğüm bilimsel çalışmalarımın sentezidir.” [Read more…]

Following “A City in Space” titled dream, 1.5 – 2 years later, this time I am in Istanbul…
To my son John Unver’s 21st Birthday…
It was exactly fifteen years before this event that
the Passport of World Citizenship had grabbed my attention…
I had first seen it among his prizes in the library of Sir Arthur C. Clarke
at the Barnes Place in Colombo,
during my first visit on December 20, 2002…
A CITY IN SPACE
January 6, 2018 by
Poetic Diary – I. While I was in New York about one-and-a-half to two-years ago…
There is a perception that everything exists in the universe as if it has been reflected through the mind of mankind…

I was in a forest densely filled with very tall and wide pine trees
There was a hillside at the entrance of the forest…
Just like the one at the entrance of the Forest Park by the Park Lane
which is 10 minutes from where I live
However, all the pine trees on the hillside were uprooted and carried away
The earth in the denuded open area was still very fresh and wet
As if it was fallowed that day with the purpose of farming!

Dedicated to the 100th Anniversary of Sir Arthur C. Clarke’s Birthday…
December 16, 1917 – December 16, 2017 
I.
Many people used to mention the impossibility of interviewing you…
Once I was influenced by your vision, I wanted to interview you…
At that time, I had read in the newspapers that you were in New York…
I had immediately found out where you were staying and called
This hotel happened to be the one where you had written the book “2001: Space Odyssey”
Much later, I also found out that in front of the hotel wall,
there is a placket in your name that refers you’ve written the “2001: Space Odyssey” there…

On ISTANBUL – A mini-series – Part 1 | by Ayse OVUR*
Istanbul* is the only metropolis with territories both in Europe and Asia in the world. The metropolitan city has inhabitants for thousands of years, has been the capital of two different empires more than 1500 years.
Today, even though it is not the official capital of Turkey; it is accepted as a cultural capital of the Republic of Turkey. Throughout history, many different religions, languages, and cultures were able to coexist within its borders. Tourists visiting Istanbul may encounter churches, synagogues, and mosques next to each other.
