The Right Inside the Left: The “New Left”-Reasons, Intellectual Origins, History-I

The Right within the Left: "New Left"-Reasons, Intellectual Origins, History-I Introduction Confusion. Dear Seyhan called me and told me that they were preparing a dossier titled "what is this left" and that I would be included in this dossier. when he told me that he wanted me to get involved with a series of articles, I had in front of me a liberal writer (clear from the context As it was understood in this way), there was a tweet in which he said "this is what right-wingism is" with a pejorative emphasis. Of course this When he tweeted this, it was clear that our liberal writer positioned himself outside the right. Probably Our author - although almost all of his ideas were liberal - did not consider himself a liberal. It is difficult to see here the profound effect of left-liberalism in creating right-wingers who think they are left-wingers it was not. Today, the answers given when asked 'what is the left' show that there is a great deal of confusion. It is precisely In such an environment, the choice of a dossier topic on 'what the left is' is quite appropriate. In this context, it is quite appropriate to choose a dossier topic on 'what is the left' and 'why some people feel themselves in the left even though they are outside of it today'. 'sees', appear as important topics that need to be written about. There is even a We go one step further and ask the question: 'some people today, even though they are in it, do not feel that they are in it'. 'why does he see it as outside the right'. Probably such a dichotomy, will enable us to reach a more meaningful conclusion. The first notion that needs to be emphasised here is that the right, as well as the left, is also involved in this pattern, with its ambiguities. The right is defined with a content that carries. In fact, the definition of the right is more abstract than that of the left, We can mention that it is transitory, with unclear boundaries and volume. Here What adds to the confusion is that the current dominant mode of thought, the periphery of "rightism", is almost exclusively "racism" and "fascism". However, we know that the right has been so narrowed and today it is much more likely that a marginalised periphery, which has lost its autarchy - such as racism - than it was in its former glory. has a boundary beyond it. In this sense, any individual whose political truths have flourished in the atmosphere of dominant thought as soon as he finds himself outside of a rightism that is defined by being squeezed into a small container. as a leftist. As a matter of fact, today in Europe and in the Western-type cultural and political hegemony In areas where there are many phenomena and subjects that are essentially on the right, many seem to be on the left. Understanding this For this purpose, we will analyse the various political and cultural developments that we have encountered in geographies such as Hong Kong and Ukraine in the last 10 years. It will be sufficient to look at the patterns. It is inevitable to look at this at a later stage of this paper. For the time being, let us content ourselves with mentioning it. Yes, as the definition of one concept becomes vague, so does the definition of its opposite concept becomes ambiguous. Such a situation constitutes a fundamental tendency in concept-science. Hence the right's The incompleteness of its definition inevitably makes the definition of the left also incomplete. In this context, the left One of the ways to define the right is to define the right correctly. Therefore, in order to define the left correctly and to draw the compass that will determine the horizon line, the basic principles of the right as a necessity to actively identify its references and the levers used in its construction. is emerging. This need also means that the left needs the power of the basic levers that make up the right. because it sheds light on the fact that it has come to life by providing its own original movement in a valuable place. In this context, with the history lift; inequalities, quarrels and disagreements between people to look at what the defining mottoes are is an important step in making sense of these concepts. to the bottom floor. So we'll take this lift to the bottom floor first. we must go back to the first time when the ideas that made them what they are became systematised. In the next chapter We will do it. This article, of which you are reading the first lines, is intended to be a long-term work consisting of more than one part. aims. In this study, we will roughly analyse the history of the left and its antagonistic relationship with rightism. will be mentioned. From this point of view, the existence of the liberal left and the current Western democracy-based sovereignty to express how the world view has gradually influenced those who define themselves as "leftist" will be attempted. As a result, the liberal arguments of private property, individualism and identity of the new left shaped by Marxism centred on the relations of production, property and sharing. (for the time being) how rapidly it is being liquidated.
