I am a cultural anthropologist and my current research examines technopolitics and institutional reform in Turkey, in the area of statistics in particular. Statistics is the heading of one of the chapters in Turkey's EU entry negotiations, and the collection and use of statistics in Turkey has taken on a new importance and new roles and functions in the country as they become more tighly integrated into apparatuses of government. At the same time wide-ranging agricultural reforms are being carried out, and this project examines statistics as part of new mechanisms being developed for the generation of knoweldge about agriculture, and the role they play in actually changing the country's agricultural practices. Statistics turn out to be technical, but also eminently social and political phenomena, so studying statistical reforms is a lens on emergent regimes of knowledge and power in Turkey, and the selves they are involved in producing. This work reflects my continuing interest in commensuration across histories and socialities.
