Özet
Neoliberalism is widely used as an interdisciplinary concept in the social sciences and is addressed through various theoretical frameworks. Despite its broad presence, there is a noticeable lack of systematic studies on how neoliberalism is defined and contextualized, especially in Turkish academic literature. This study aims to examine how the concept is conceptualized in Turkish literature, in which contexts it appears, and whether these uses reflect critical or supportive perspectives.
The main objective is to determine whether neoliberalism is addressed in defined or undefined forms, with critical or affirmative approaches, and which aspects are highlighted in explaining phenomena. For this purpose, a qualitative analysis was conducted on the most-cited articles on neoliberalism in Turkish literature. These articles were systematically analyzed in terms of definitions, conceptual frameworks, and methodological tendencies to construct a theoretical and conceptual map of neoliberalism.
The findings reveal the theoretical diversity and critical tendencies within Turkish scholarship on neoliberalism. While the concept is often examined within an economic-political framework, there is an increasing emphasis on its cultural and ideological dimensions. This study contributes to the literature by offering a new perspective on neoliberalism debates, mapping interdisciplinary approaches, and providing a methodological basis for future research.
