Tolerance and Polarization in Turkey

Özet

The section examines tendencies of tolerance and acceptance in Turkey, along with the public's perceptions of polarization:

• Political quarrels should be set aside; the air we breathe and the water we drink are shared concerns.
• Despite everything, there are people who strive to live together in harmony.
• No one has to conform to anyone else; everyone should live according to their own path.
• We are all migrants; none of us are more native or more foreign than others.
• My son-in-law/daughter-in-law could be from a different sect.
• My son-in-law/daughter-in-law could be from a different ethnic background.
• My son-in-law/daughter-in-law could be from a different religion.
• I eat food prepared by anyone, regardless of their religion, language, or race.
