Deleuzian Conceptualizaion of “Agency”: Muslim Women Questions
Öz: There are many studies about whether Muslim women are oppressed or emancipated by Islamic traditions. Some claim that Islamic traditions, such as the headscarf, oppress women while others want to prove that these women have agency when they perform Islamic traditions. This project aims to use a Deleuzian conceptualization of agency1 and freedom that will enable us to examine multi-faced, relational, and spatial formations of Muslim women’s lives. In other words, I apply the relational ontology of the France philosopher, Gilles Deleuze, to contestations over Muslim women. Through this relational ontology, I problematize the depictions of Muslim women solely based on religious frameworks in a pejorative way and want to explore alternative patterns in Muslim women’s experiences and practices. Therefore, I use the Deleuzian conceptualization of agency and freedom to demassify the depictions of Muslim women as submissive beings based on their religious engagements. I suggest scholarly projects that will be attentive to the situatedness of Muslim women.
Anahtar Kelime: Deleuze’ın Felsefesi Bağlamında İrade Kavramı: Müslüman Kadına Dair Sorular
Öz: Müslüman kadınların İslami gelenekler tarafından bastırılmış mı özgürlüğe kavuşturul- muş mu olduğuna dair pek çok çalışma bulunmakta. Bu çalışmalardan bazıları başörtüsü gibi İslami geleneklerin bir baskı unsuru olarak görürken, bazıları da Müslüman kadınların bu ge- lenekleri uygularken kendi iradelerini ortaya koyduğunu, dolayısıyla bu geleneklerin bir baskı emaresi olarak görülemeyeceğini savunur. Bu çalışmada, Müslüman kadınların hayat- larının çok yönlü, ilişkisel ve mekân bağlamında şekillendiğini incelememizi sağlayacak, De- leuze felsefisi bağlamında ele alınan irade ve özgürlük kavramlarını kullanmak amaçlanmış- tır. Diğer bir ifade ile Fransız filozof Gilles Deleuze tarafından ortaya koyulan ilişkisel ontoloji Müslüman Kadın çalışmalarını sorgulamak için kullanılmaktadır. Bu ilişkisel ontoloji üzerin- den, Müslüman kadınların dini söylemler çerçevesinde olumsuz resmedilmeleri sorgulan- makta ve bu kadınların deneyimlerine ve pratiklerine dair alternatif açıklamalar ortaya ko- nulmaktadır. Böylece, Deleuze’in felsefesi bağlamında ele alınan irade ve özgürlük kavramları kullanılarak Müslüman kadınların dini katılım ve uygulamaları üzerinden pasif ve irade gös- termeyen kadınlar olarak tasvir edilmesi sorgulanmaktadır. Müslüman kadınların durumsal uygulama ve deneyimlerini keşfedebilecek nitelikte akademik bir bakış açısı önerilmektedir.
