Essay on performative politics of the Justice and Development Party (Ak Party) of Turkey specifically focusing on Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the general election of 2015 using Politics of Performance Framework (PPF) of Shirin Rai Write a chapter on performative politics of the Justice and Development Party (Ak Party) of Turkey specifically focusing on Recep Tayyip Erdogan in the general election of 2015 (50 pages) using Politics of Performance Framework (PPF) of Shirin Rai (2014). This should include discourses and speeches and must (mostly) address the live performances on stage. Needed to keep in mind the flowing questions: Are there any performative movements that get noticed immediately? How is Erdogan performing this well on live stage? How does he use body on stage and discourses to influence his audience? Does he use different spaces such as stadiums or masks? How does he use auditory power to influence his audience? Is there any specific changes on how he performs on stage in different elections? What about the technological enhancements Did he used new methods? These two chapters should includes the followings as subchapters: 1-“the question of the body”, 2- “The way of using the body”, 3-“changing modes of performance in space” (staging the presentation (And backstage if there is any information)), 4-Auditory power and its authenticity, 5- the performative labour that he put into and 6- the audience resistance to a performance, if there is any. This chapter must include at least 40 newspaper articles as reference and 10 academic reference. I would expect that all the performances that will be focused under those chapters (like 5 different events) should be addressed under those 5-6 categories. In other words, instead of focusing one event with 6 sub chapters, I would expect that 1 subchapter (for example the question of body) will be addressed in different events. This means that all events must be considered under those subchapters. Since this is a part of chapter, I strongly against the introduction of any kind. I just simply want a research on the election of 2015 with regarding to use of Erdogans body and the way of using body, changing modes of performance in space (staging the presentation (And backstage if there is any information)), Auditory power and its authenticity, the performative labour that he put into and the audience resistance to his performance. No need for historical background. To sum up, 1 chapter (General Election of 2015), 5-6 sub chapters under each chapter (you can either see the details in PPF of Shirin Rai or I wrote them above), and each subchapter must address 4-5 performances. The performances encourage to be the same (meaning that all the events should be addressed within all the subchapters like X event should be considered with relation lets say the question of the body as well as auditory power etc.)
