Abstract

[Focusing on the period between 1996 and 2006, this chapter argues that Jews in Turkey and immigrants from Turkey created heritage places in Israel in the name of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, Turkey’s first president, and other Turkish politicians as a sign of their ongoing identification with Turkish identity practices. Also reproducing Turkey’s cultural diplomacy messages, these heritage places embody transnational manifestations of Turkish foreign policy, especially in the way Turkey’s cultural diplomacy messages are disseminated along the state–public (Turkey to the Israeli public) and public–public (Turkish immigrants in Israel to the Israeli public) axes. By critically engaging with the selective historiography embodied in these heritage sites, this chapter also contends that Jews from Turkey in Israel reproduce Turkish cultural diplomacy discourses only when these discourses overlap with Israel’s own cultural and foreign policies and nationalist discourses.]
