This paper is based on a presentation delivered at St Antony’s College, University of Oxford on 21st of May 2012 as part of the Seminar Series “Authority, Censorship and Subversion in Turkey: Culture and Society in the AKP Years”. It reviews the developments that took place in realm of freedom of communication and media in the last decade. Through interviews with editors and journalists, this presentation demonstrates that the exercise of democratic citizenship through the media and freedom of communication in Turkey is inversely correlated to deepening of AKP’s power in governance.
