Özet:

This thesis examines Cemevis of Tuzluçayır, a neighborhood in Ankara, in the context of politics of Commons. This politics aims for practical solutions to social, economic, political and ecological problems by acting beyond the dominant political-economic structure, the state-market duopoly. As the Alevi social movement, was not able to form definite ways of integration into the political-economic structure of Turkey, it has represented tactics to reformulate its religio-political practices by following actions of exceeding the boundaries of the institutional limits of the structure. This is so especially in the context of Cemevi-making practices. The social and political struggle over the right to Cemevis, has made the foundation of them possible, despite their illegal status. This means that these practices of placemaking are in the margins of the existing political-economic structure, and in that regard reveal a potential for politics of Commons. However, this politics is introduced as a limited solution in this work, if the movement does not articulate itself to the politics “against” the dominant structure and continues as a tool of survival in margins. This means that economic political structure, either transforms these practices of survival subject to its own political and economic order, or, it totally abolishes these movements by using force.
