Mustafa Kemal Atatürk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "In 1933, Mustafa Kemal ordered the reorganization of the Istanbul University into a modern institution and later established the Ankara University in the capital city to make sure that the principles that are the expressions of a modern society, such as science and enlightenment, are held dear and protected.[38]

Kemal personally engaged with the translation of scientific terminology[39]. Kemal wanted the Turkish language reform based on a methodological base. The Turkish language has an integral structure and without modelling this structure any attempt to 'clean' the Turkish language from foreign influence was inherently wrong for him. Mustafa Kemal personally engaged with the Sun Language Theory (Turkish: Güneş Dil Teorisi), which was a linguistic theory proposing that all human languages are descendants of one Central Asian primal language. Kemal's interest started with the works by the French scientist Hilaire de Baranton entitled 'L'Origine des Langues, des Religions et des Peuples', that all languages originated from hieroglyphs and cuneiform used by Sumerians [40] and the paper of Austrian linguist Dr. Hermann F. Kvergić of Vienna entitled 'La psychologie de quelques elements des langues Turques' ['the psychology of some elements of the Turkic Languages'].[41] Kemal introduced the Sun Language Theory into Turkish political and ed"

Turkish language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Turkish language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "ollowing the adoption of Islam c. 950 by the Kara-Khanid Khanate and the Seljuq Turks, who are both regarded as the cultural ancestors of the Ottomans, the administrative language of these states acquired a large collection of loanwords from Arabic and Persian. Turkish literature during the Ottoman period, particularly Ottoman Divan poetry, was heavily influenced by Persian, including the adoption of poetic meters and a great quantity of imported words. The literary and official language during the Ottoman Empire (c. 1299–1922) was a mixture of Turkish, Persian, and Arabic that differed considerably from the period's everyday spoken Turkish, and is termed Ottoman Turkish.

After the foundation of the Republic of Turkey and the script reform, the Turkish Language Association (TDK) was established in 1932 under the patronage of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, with the aim of conducting research on Turkish.

1. Giordano: The McCain Doctrine: Back to the Cold War in Latin America

Dear Colleague,

US policy has for decades involved significant meddling into the
affairs of Latin American countries, almost always sabotaging
democratic principles and human rights to bolster economic interests.
In recent years, Latin American peoples have pushed back moving their
nations toward more independent and authentic democracies.

The € ’³Cold War€ ’´ has thawed in this hemisphere, but the
presumptive
Republican nominee for president of the United States, Senator John
McCain, is openly campaigning to bring it back.

Narco News€ ’² Al Giordano brings you a in-depth report on what he
calls
the € ’³McCain Doctrine€ ’´ toward Latin America and how a
strengthened
current of the rival Democratic Party is finally € ’¶ after decades of

capitulation € ’¶ fighting back.

From Giordano€ ’²s report:

€ ’³For eight years this newspaper has reported thousands of stories
from Latin America that were ignored or distorted by commercial media
in the United States, and rarely mentioned by its politicians. One of
the only beneficial side effects of US President George W. Bush€ ’²s
unsuccessful war in Iraq is that his administration had less time and
fewer resources than previous administrations had to impose their
invasive doctrines and policies on the Western Hemisphere.

€ ’³’¥But suddenly, everything has changed: Latin America is now on
the
front burner in the US presidential election that will climax with a
vote in November.€ ’´

Among the policy issues now at the front burner of the US
presidential campaign are the Cuba embargo and the proposed US-
Colombian € ’³free trade€ ’´ agreement. For the first time in most
people€ ’²s
lifetimes, the US Presidential election is bringing a serious debate
on US policies toward Latin America countries.

2. “Time to Dig Into That Jar”: Keep Narco News Publishing

Dear Colleague:

In a few weeks, if it's not already in your mailbox, those of you who
live in the United States should be receiving an "economic stimulus"
rebate check from the U.S. government. The return of this small
portion of your hard-earned money taken previously by Uncle Sam is
supposed to be spent, so say the powers that be, on material
consumption in order to spur the economy out of its dour mood.

Well, I for one don't want to give a boost to some parts of this
economy € ¦’· particularly those responsible for feeding us poison and
polluting our environment and diminishing our lives.

I'm going to take this opportunity to put the money to better use than
has been the case to date under the misguided leadership of our
ill-esteemed leaders who reign over the corruption that got us into
this economic tailspin in the first place.

So part of my money is going to help fund the shoe-string operations
of Narco News, in the hope that it will spur an economy supportive of
a bright sunshine that ultimately withers away the dictatorship of
secrecy and exploitation that now propels the engines of state.

Now some of you might not be due an unexpected refund from the purse
of government € ¦’· or may have already committed that money to another
cause. But you have to have some coins stuffed away in a jar
somewhere, put aside for a rainy day. This is now the time to dig into
that jar, because sunshine can be purchased for a small price, if we
pull together to keep Narco News in play, shining a light on the dark
corners of our lands across the Americas.

I admit to being pushed to the point of resignation at times in
covering the drug war € ¦’· along the border, where life seems to be
of
less value than a tax refund; or in Colombia, where phony,
self-serving ideologies pave the way for drug policies that promote
greed, fear and death; or in the air space over Mexico and South
Florida, where government covert operations facilitate the delivery of
tons of cocaine to our streets in order to promote more misery in
foreign lands.

At times, I wonder, honestly, if anyone out there really cares
anymore. I wonder what it takes to nudge the needle just enough to
register a pulse in our America € ¦’· where cynicism and consumerism
are
found at every turn.

But then I see the hard work Al Giordano has done at Narco News over
the past eight years, keeping it alive to break the authentic news
stories from Latin America even when his work has been in such demand
at The Field and other publications as one of the most sought after
first-string political reporters of the 2008 presidential campaign in
the United States. On both sides of the border, he's tirelessly
revealing the hope that is moving millions toward a bottom-up
commitment to making better world; and I see the work of the hundreds
of co-publishers at Narco News, who € ¦’· despite, I'm sure, being
afflicted at times by the similar doubts that plague me € ¦’· continue
to
push on, to tell the stories of the peoples of Oaxaca, of Chiapas, of
Atenco, of the thousands of detained immigrants in the United States,
of the indigenous communities who are standing up for their human
rights at great risk across the hemisphere. And as I take all this in,
all this reflected on the digital heartbeat of Narco News each day, I
begin to take heart and see that I cannot afford the selfish
preoccupation with my own isolation and desperation. I am part of
something bigger, something better that is happening all around me, if
only I reach out and touch it, and more importantly, support and
nurture it.

So I recommit. I will not be dissuaded. I will believe. And I will
sacrifice to stoke this change, not by spending even more money on a
fast-food economy of war (as our leaders seem to think we must), but
by putting my money and my heart into any hope for a better world.
Narco News, in my book, is part of that solution, and for that reason,
it must survive.

I have resolved to not give Caesar's money back to Caesar, but rather,
to spend what I can on the community wishing well, where the magic of
hope still springs from the ground. I'd ask you to join me in this
effort.
