ABSTRACT The Europeanisation process in Turkey that extended roughly from 1999 to 2006 boosted the political and cultural rights of diverse ethnic groups in Turkey, including Circassians, and strengthened their claims for equal citizenship. With the loss or weakening of the EU as an anchor for democratic reform in the post-2007 period, however, the de-Europeanisation process has resulted in the disappearance of the main legal and institutional basis for the democratic integration of ethnocultural minorities. Nevertheless, analysis of the activities of four large Circassian communities in Turkey shows that the same process has enhanced the cultural reification of these groups as their survival strategy.

土耳其的去欧洲化和平等公民身份：切尔克斯人的案例

摘要 土耳其的欧洲化进程大致从 1999 年持续到 2006 年，促进了土耳其包括切尔克斯人在内的不同族裔群体的政治和文化权利，并加强了他们对平等公民身份的要求。然而，随着 2007 年后欧盟作为民主改革支柱的丧失或削弱，去欧洲化进程导致少数民族文化融合的主要法律和制度基础消失。然而，对土耳其四个大型切尔克斯社区活动的分析表明，同样的过程增强了这些群体的文化物化，作为他们的生存策略。
