Abstract

Traditional Turkish culture has archaic, unique, universal, diverse, dynamic, competitive, and distinctive contents (traditional knowledge and practices, cultural codes, canonical images, motifs, structural patterns, etc.) that can be valued in different ways in cultural creative industries. However, this cultural capital cannot be utilized sufficiently to meet Turkey's sustainable economic development goals from the past to the present. One of the main reasons why the potential inherent in traditional culture cannot be effectively, creatively, and innovatively actualized is the predominance of auto-orientalist discourse in the Turkish cultural industry. Here, in this text, the trial of traditional culture with auto-orientalist Turkish cultural industry will be analyzed from historical, sociological, and economic aspects.
