dc.description.abstract	The aim of this study is to draw a discursive profile of Fethullah Güllen community movement with respect to cultural meanings that are constructed to shape the Islamic identity of the community participants. First, I have tried to describe the dynamic process of meaning formation through religio-conservative values. Secondly, I have contextualized this problematic/ on the changing nature of public sphere by depicting the transformative influence of sacred-private over the profane-public. I showed that this community movement tries to carve a space for the creation of a conservative model of public sphere through the discursive practices of an Islamic inner world. The research this thesis based on was conducted between January 1996 and July 1997, in Istanbul.
