  Hafıza Merkezi Berlin (HMB) aims to be a hub to facilitate exchange between civil society actors from Turkey and Europe to foster joint advocacy, effective solidarity and action. HMB was founded within a global context of rising authoritarian governments, increasing nationalism and right-wing extremist movements. This increasingly alarming trend of the erosion of the rule of law and a setback in human rights at a global scale puts human rights advocates, truth seekers and defenders of accountability under a growing pressure to act.

  Hakikat Adalet Hafıza Merkezi (engl. Truth Justice Memory Center) is an independent human rights organization set up by a group of lawyers, journalists and human rights activists in November 2011 in Istanbul, Turkey. Hafıza Merkezi aims to uncover the truth concerning past violations of human rights, strengthen the collective memory about those violations, and support survivors in their pursuit of justice. Hafıza Merkezi implements a range of activities, including documentation in accordance with the universally accepted standards, monitoring of precedent cases, as well as dissemination of marginalized truths and narratives on these violations to a large section of society, with a view to support the recognition and rehabilitation of victims of such atrocities. Hafıza Merkezi uses a unique approach, as it gathers and accumulates knowledge and methodology from organizations dealing with similar issues in other post-conflict and post-authoritarian regions, develops them further through its everyday work and adapts the know-how into the Turkish context.

  Im politischen Jargon der AKP ist die Rede von einer «Neuen Türkei» seit Jahren fest verankert. Die Regierungspartei ist unmissverständlich darauf aus, das Land in eine neue Richtung zu steuern. Mit der steigenden Anzahl von Militärinterventionen unberechenbaren Ausmaßes im Innern wie nach außen, dem seit dem Putschversuch vom Juli 2016 geltenden Ausnahmezustand, und der voraussichtlichen Einführung eines Präsidialsystems im kommenden Jahr, drohen dem Land immer weitere Kapitel der «Erneuerung» im antidemokratischen Sinne. Mit der Salongesprächsreihe beleuchtete die Rosa-Luxemburg-Stiftung das Ringen um die «Neue Türkei» näher. Wir blickten auf die Entwicklungen der vergangenen Jahre und ihre Auswirkungen auf Rechtsstaat, Kunst und Kultur, Lebens- und Schaffensräume, Moralvorstellungen und bebaute Umwelten. Was wird dem Fortschrittswahn und neo-osmanischen Allmachtsphantasien der Regierung entgegengesetzt? Wo wird Kunst zum Widerstand? Was passiert, wenn Lebensweisen zum nicht mehr bloß symbolischen Schlachtfeld erklärt werden? Im Gespräch mit Wissenschaftler*innen, Jurist*innen, Künstler*innen und anderen Widerständigen gingen wir dem anhaltenden Kampf um politische sowie kulturelle und räumliche Hegemonie im Spiegel der Krisenmomente der jüngeren Vergangenheit nach.
