The book trade forges links between cultures. In<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r words, it is <strong>the</strong> heart and soul <strong>of</strong> intellectual<br />

life and is one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> essential characteristics <strong>of</strong> any<br />

modern country.<br />

The reforms in <strong>the</strong> field <strong>of</strong> educ<strong>at</strong>ion were one <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

first changes th<strong>at</strong> took place after <strong>the</strong> found<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

<strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Turkish Republic. The L<strong>at</strong>in alphabet was<br />

introduced and, thanks to a large-scale and<br />

comprehensive initi<strong>at</strong>ive, <strong>the</strong> literacy r<strong>at</strong>e was<br />

substantially boosted over a short period <strong>of</strong> time.<br />

B O O K T R A D E I N T U R K E Y<br />

As <strong>the</strong> result <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> long war <strong>of</strong> independence, as<br />

well as <strong>the</strong> weakened economic and social system <strong>of</strong><br />

<strong>the</strong> Ottoman Empire, a priv<strong>at</strong>e sector with sufficient<br />

financial resources for investments <strong>at</strong> its disposal<br />

did not exist in <strong>the</strong> young Republic.<br />

At <strong>the</strong> first congress <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> publishing sector in<br />

1939, new initi<strong>at</strong>ives and solutions were deb<strong>at</strong>ed.<br />

Despite prevailing ideological differences, <strong>the</strong><br />

founders <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Republic decided to assign <strong>the</strong> St<strong>at</strong>e<br />

with this task. The Ministry <strong>of</strong> N<strong>at</strong>ional Educ<strong>at</strong>ion<br />

became <strong>the</strong> most significant publisher and was<br />

responsible for printing all n<strong>at</strong>ional text books.<br />

Masters <strong>of</strong> classic liter<strong>at</strong>ure were also transl<strong>at</strong>ed<br />

into Turkish and published by <strong>the</strong> Ministry.<br />

<strong>Turkey</strong> started changing due to new economic<br />

policies introduced during <strong>the</strong> 1980’s. The St<strong>at</strong>e’s<br />

share in <strong>the</strong> n<strong>at</strong>ional economy and industry<br />

decreased, <strong>the</strong> obstacles arising <strong>from</strong> <strong>the</strong> tariff<br />

system were removed, and <strong>Turkey</strong> opened itself up<br />

to intern<strong>at</strong>ional competition. These developments<br />

in turn also had a positive effect on <strong>the</strong> publishing<br />

sector and <strong>the</strong> number <strong>of</strong> priv<strong>at</strong>e companies started<br />

to increase rapidly.<br />

ZERRİN YILMAZ, AKIN DİRİK<br />

Cooper<strong>at</strong>ion between Turkish and intern<strong>at</strong>ional<br />

<strong>publishers</strong> started to develop. The publishing<br />

sector in turn started to develop a more modern<br />

perspective. New publishing houses were founded<br />

and across <strong>Turkey</strong> new book shops opened. New<br />

technological developments in <strong>the</strong> publishing sector<br />

were also introduced on a large scale. In short, <strong>the</strong><br />

publishing sector experienced a dynamic and rapid<br />

development.<br />

The Turkish Publishers Associ<strong>at</strong>ion was founded in<br />

1985 with <strong>the</strong> aim <strong>of</strong> protecting and representing<br />

all <strong>the</strong> <strong>publishers</strong>’ interests. And in 2002 it became<br />

a proud member <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> Intern<strong>at</strong>ional Publishers<br />

Associ<strong>at</strong>ion (IPA).<br />

The <strong>publishers</strong> also took fur<strong>the</strong>r steps in terms<br />

<strong>of</strong> organis<strong>at</strong>ional structure and in <strong>the</strong> years th<strong>at</strong><br />

followed <strong>the</strong>y founded <strong>the</strong> Associ<strong>at</strong>ion <strong>of</strong> Press<br />

and Publishing, as well as o<strong>the</strong>r pr<strong>of</strong>essional<br />

associ<strong>at</strong>ions.<br />

Freedom <strong>of</strong> thought, <strong>of</strong> public<strong>at</strong>ion, as well as <strong>the</strong><br />

freedom <strong>of</strong> expression, are <strong>the</strong> key principles <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />

Turkish publishing sector. Current efforts made by<br />

<strong>the</strong> Turkish pr<strong>of</strong>essional associ<strong>at</strong>ions have been<br />

intern<strong>at</strong>ionally praised by <strong>the</strong> IPA as exemplary.

Cultural Dialogue<br />

<strong>Book</strong>s play an essential role in <strong>the</strong> shaping <strong>of</strong><br />

cultural dialogue. This phenomenon connects<br />

countries, not only in <strong>the</strong> m<strong>at</strong>erial sense, but also<br />

intellectually, and this in turn brings <strong>the</strong>m toge<strong>the</strong>r<br />

in friendship and cooper<strong>at</strong>ion. Both East and West<br />

are equally represented in <strong>the</strong> Turkish n<strong>at</strong>ional<br />

identity. We know <strong>the</strong> cultural, geographical, and<br />

political characteristics <strong>of</strong> both cultures and this<br />

knowledge is our footing for intern<strong>at</strong>ional dialogue.<br />

In order to promote <strong>the</strong> Turkish language, <strong>the</strong><br />

Turkish culture and publishing sectors, new projects<br />

are initi<strong>at</strong>ed such as <strong>the</strong> newly founded Yunus<br />

Emre Institute which is set to carry out similar<br />

activities to those <strong>of</strong> o<strong>the</strong>r prominent institutes<br />

like <strong>the</strong> British Council, <strong>the</strong> Goe<strong>the</strong> Institute, or<br />

<strong>the</strong> Instituto Cervantes. Fur<strong>the</strong>rmore, several<br />

publishing houses were supported in a number <strong>of</strong><br />

countries in <strong>the</strong> framework <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> TEDA Project,<br />

with <strong>the</strong> aim to present Turkish liter<strong>at</strong>ure to <strong>the</strong><br />

world.<br />
