SUMMARY:Lecture / Discussion:CMENAS 2026 Fall Colloquium Series | Projecting Power: Film Diplomacy and the Making of the Turkey-US Alliance
DESCRIPTION:How do states project power beyond military cooperation? This talk examines the role of educational films\, institutional networks\, and audiovisual media in shaping the US–Turkey alliance before and during the Cold War. Drawing on *Film Diplomacy: A Media History of Turkey–US Relations *(Columbia University Press\, 2026)\, Etem argues that film was central to the projection of power through international alliances and institution building. Bringing together archival research from Turkey and the United States\, the talk traces how governments\, universities\, philanthropic foundations\, and international organizations collaborated to produce\, circulate\, and exhibit films that supported political\, educational\, and developmental agendas. By examining film as a technology of governance\, the talk offers a new perspective on how media shaped international relations and the making of Cold War alliances in the Middle East.\n\nAyşehan Jülide Etem is Assistant Professor of Media Studies and Director of the Film Studies concentration at the University of Virginia. She is a media historian and documentary film scholar whose research examines how media infrastructures and cultural institutions shape international relations\, public life\, and systems of power. Her work focuses on global film cultures\, public diplomacy\, documentary\, and the politics of media. She is the author of *Film Diplomacy: A Media History of Turkey–US Relations* (Columbia University Press\, 2026)\, which identifies and examines how institutional networks\, educational films and audiovisual media helped construct the US–Turkey alliance before and during the Cold War. Her current research investigates documentary film and gun violence\, as well as the history of population control films and reproductive governance. Her work has appeared in journals including *Communication\, Culture & Critique*\, *Global Perspectives*\, the *Historical Journal of Film\, Radio and Television*\, the* Journal of e-Media Studies*\, and *NECSUS: European Journal of Media Studies*\, and is forthcoming in Film History.\n\nJoin on Zoom: https://myumi.ch/8Jqy2\n\nIf there is anything we can do to make this event accessible to you\, please contact us. Please be aware that advance notice is necessary as some accommodations may require more time for the university to arrange. Contact: warsansa@umich.edu
