Abstract

The article focuses on Osman Kavala, a Turkish philanthropist and cultural advocate, who has been unjustly imprisoned by President Erdoğan's regime under fabricated charges of orchestrating the 2013 Gezi Park protests. Topics include Kavala's civil society work promoting minority rights and cultural expression, the authoritarian crackdown following the failed 2016 coup, and the broader use of conspiracy theories involving George Soros—to silence dissent and undermine democracy in Turkey.
