Turkey’s two-hundred-year modernization process can be summarized with 
the concepts of reforms (tanzimat), constitutional monarchy (meşrutiyet) 
and republic; the notions which refer to a history of building a 
sociopolitical order for the country’s goals towards power and prosperity.

Losing power and land while confronted with a positioning as “having a 
grasp of the zeitgeist and comprehending the happenings”, media has been 
considered as an important factor in the country’s struggle to prevent 
loses and establish a new regime, as it is associated with the concepts 
such as knowledge, socialization of knowledge, education, thought, 
expressing thoughts, news, intellectuals, public opinion, democratic 
progress and development.

Military has been one of the most invested institutions in order to 
prevent power and land losses. Established after the abolition of 
traditional Ottoman military and being one of the important actors of 
modernization process, modern military paved the way for the formation 
of a coup tradition in Turkey with the interventions it made forcefully 
in the political system: Dethronements of Sultan Abdülaziz in 1876 and 
Sultan Abdühamit II in 1909, raid on the Sublime Porte in 1913, May 27 
Coup, March 12 Memorandum, September 12 Coup, February 28 Post-Modern 
Coup and July 15 Coup Attempt.

and roles of media and military, as well as their interrelation in the 
modernization process, and the question of coup in Turkey, “Media, Coup 
and July 15” is determined to be the theme of the special issue of
