About

Dear Editors of The Loop, first of all congratulations for this project! I am Chiara, a post-doctoral fellow at the Cultures, Politics and Society Department, University of Turin. Previously, I was assistant professor at the Center for Southeast European Studies (CSEES) at the University of Graz and post-doctoral visiting fellow at the Stockholm University Institute for Turkish Studies (SUITS). My research interests focus on the management of religion in contemporary Turkey, including the governance of religious institutions in Turkey and within Turkey-originated diaspora communities in Europe, women’s religious engagement, and the Turkish Presidency of Religious Affairs (Diyanet)’s policies towards women and family. My latest publications are: Women, Religion and the State in Contemporary Turkey, Cambridge University Press 2020 and “Pastor of a Dispersed Flock: Diyanet officers and Turkey's art of governing its diaspora”, Italian Political Science Review 2020.
