Ayata 2020 - De-Heimatize It

Ayata, Bilgin

I would like to say one thing right away: I am skeptical about the supposed potential of home in the plural. Not because I doubt the power and necessity of an alternative cultural policy, but because I consider the concept of home to be unsalvageable. I consider it a lost labor of love to pluralize or even subvert the concept of homeland in order to counteract its regressive components. Instead, I would like to argue for dehomelizing our political discourses and frames of reference.
