“…Nonetheless, only a few papers have been published that examine the role of this specific system of risk and profit sharing between the bank and its clients in entrepreneurial ventures. These studies are mostly concerned with explaining the moral and philosophical foundations [Baki Adas, 2006;Elfakhani, Ahmed, 2013]. There is a huge shortage of empirically based studies on the financial infrastructure for entrepreneurship in Islamic countries ('Sharia compliant finance') and its impact on entrepreneurs' attitudes toward the uncertainties and risks associated with their business strategies.…”

“…Fur ther, during the post-ig8os period, Kemalist statism was confronted by a variety of socio-political movements including those by the Kurdish and Alevi minori ties and the rise of Islamic political parties. Economic liberalisation brought the rise of a conservative group of businessmen-the "Anatolian Tigers"-who challenged the economic and political power of the country's secular elite and supported the Islamist political movement (Ada §, 2006;Demir et al, 2004;Giimu §cu and Sert, 2009). In order to further the process of liberalisation, Turkey, with the support of the International Monetary Fund (i m f ) imple mented a comprehensive disinflation programme with strict austerity targets in 1999.…”

Emergent social assistance programmes in developing countries are either considered to possibly signal the transition to a post-neoliberal era, or are taken to constitute a move towards neoliberal welfare governance. By examining the making of a social assistance-based welfare regime in Turkey, I argue that the expansion of social programmes are the product of the neoliberalism-plus conjuncture which takes market inequality as a given. Specifically, this article analyses the similarity of nominally opposed concepts of welfare in the Turkish debate between conservative Islamists and secular Kemalists. By examining the “sadaka culture” debate and the constitutive rights vs. belief binary, the following analysis illustrates that although these two political groups appear to disagree about welfare governance, in reality this on-going debate actually masks the consolidation of social assistance as a welfare norm. I argue that social assistance operates as a bio-political strategy that transforms state power, restructures welfare governance and generates new understandings of poverty, need and aid in the neoliberalism-plus conjuncture.

“…Islamic consumption in Turkey has taken shape in the context of economic neoliberalization and the rise of Islamist political parties in the post-1980 era. A new entrepreneurial class of conservative businessmen with roots outside of the country's urban, secular elite has buoyed an aspiring middle class (Bugra 1998(Bugra , 2003Yavuz 2003;Adaş 2006). This "Islamic bourgeoisie" has generated a demand for goods and spaces that mark a new Islamically accented performance of taste and distinction (Bilici 1999;Göle 1999;Göle and Ammann 2006).…”
