Markalama ve Millî Kimlik: “Türkiye: Gücünü ve Potansiyelini Keşfet” Kampanyası Analizi

Ulus markalama dünyanın dört bir yanındaki devletlerin 21. yüzyılda kullandıkları önemli bir iletişim stratejisi olmuştur. Bir milletin kimlik ve değerlerine dair mesajların, gerek ülke vatandaşlarına gerekse yabancı izleyicilere aktarılmasını amaçlayan ulus markalama, milletleri bir marka olarak yeniden düzenlemekte ve kitlelere duyurmaktadır. Sahip olduğu siyasi, tarihsel, kültürel ve ekonomik önem nedeniyle bölgesel bir güç olan Türkiye de yakın dönemde ulus markalama uygulayan devletlerden biridir. Bu bağlamda, bu çalışma Türkiye’nin 2015 yılında “Türkiye: Gücünü ve Potansiyelini Keşfet” sloganıyla uygulamaya koyduğu ulus markalama kampanyasını analiz etmektedir. Marka kimliği, logo ve reklamların analiziyle bu çalışma, Türk milletinin belirli bir marka kimliği inşasıyla iç ve dış izleyicilere yönelik markalanma sürecinin metinsel ve görsel pratiklerini incelemeyi hedeflemektedir.
