Kadınların Yüzyılı

Let's see this fact now; As long as humanity does not benefit from the intellectual power of women, a livable world will not be possible as long as the domination of the masculine thought system continues. Our book “The Century of Women” aims to understand and listen to how women have struggled from past to present, their thoughts about what is happening and their predictions for the future, in the conditions of subordination, ignoring, objectification, exploitation and violence against women and women's identity that continue in this century in the world and in Turkey. and it is the product of a series of interviews that we want to announce. 4 intellectual questions to the women we could reach in these interviews published on our website, Others' Agenda.

and published their answers on our website as they are, without limiting or abbreviating them. The book you have in your hand is a compilation of these interviews. When we started the interviews, we tried to reach not only activist or political women but also women from all segments of society. We sent our questions to many women and LGBTI+ Women's Century 10 institutions via e-mail or social media. Before the interviews, we published news on our Others' Agenda website and published the questions and tried to ensure wide participation. As a result, we conducted interviews with 40 women who reached us. Many women stated that they could not participate because they did not have time. Each answer to these 4 questions we asked both excited and enlightened us, who defend gender freedom, about the future. Comprehensive narratives in the interviews, connections established between social dynamics, thought-provoking direct observations, a great history and practice of struggle create an impressive unity with polyphony. While reading, we realize the power of women to transform society with their thoughts, efforts, arts and free women's identities in all areas of life.
