本文探讨了专制政权在面对反霸权力量对其新自由主义社会和经济计划的强烈抵制时，为什么以及如何变得有弹性。以2013年的土耳其为例，分析了威权主义新自由主义和正义与发展党政府试图重新确立其霸权所产生的政治主体性。为了解释这一论点，本文首先考察了格齐公园的抗议活动，追溯抗议者自己的描述，以探索对威权主义新自由主义的抵抗是如何实现的。然后分析了政府和亲政府媒体的话语策略，以展示正义与发展党政府如何利用新奥斯曼主义和新自由主义的改造来挪用土耳其右翼现有的民族意志叙事，并试图通过在民族意志会议上达成共识来复制其霸权。
This article explores why and how authoritarian regimes become resilient when facing strong resistance from counter-hegemonic forces to their neoliberal social and economic projects. Examining the case of Turkey in 2013, it analyses the political subjectivities produced by authoritarian neoliberalism and the AKP government's attempt to reassert its hegemony. To unpack this argument, the article first examines the Gezi Park protests, retracing the protestors' own accounts to explore how the resistance to authoritarian neoliberalism materialised. It then analyses the discursive strategies of the government and pro-government media to show how the AKP government appropriated the Turkish right's existing national will' narrative with a neo-Ottomanist and neoliberal makeover and tried to reproduce its hegemony through consent generation at the National Will' meetings.
