Overview

FCR Yayın LTD is a Turkish publishing house founded in 1986 and headquartered in Ankara. It operates as an academic and intellectual publisher under five imprints — Fecr, Eskiyeni, Bilay, Meneviş and Kitabe — covering the social sciences and humanities. According to its official website, the company has published around 2,000 works in Turkish, English, German, French and Arabic since its founding, making it one of Turkey's established publishing houses in the field of academic publishing. The company's editorial philosophy emphasizes original research, adherence to scientific method, encouragement of critical thinking, and the production of works that can serve as long-term references. Its stated aim is not merely to produce books but to mediate the encounter between readers and studies that make lasting contributions to academic and intellectual life. Each imprint has a distinct focus. Fecr concentrates primarily on Islamic theology (ilahiyat), prioritizing works that contribute to the correct understanding and practice of the Qur'an, alongside selected biography and travel titles. Eskiyeni focuses mainly on philosophy, sociology, psychology, anthropology and the history of religions. Bilay serves theology and undergraduate course book series. Meneviş and Kitabe cover additional subject areas within the humanities and social sciences. FCR Yayın has received recognition from the Türkiye Yazarlar Birliği (Turkish Writers' Union). Three Fecr titles — Afrika Seyahatnamesi (2015), İyilik Yolunda Uzaklar Yakın (2017) and Hz. Muhammed (2019) — were awarded Book of the Year, and Fecr was named Publisher of the Year in 2021. The company maintains an active catalogue with regular new releases, often offered at promotional discounts through its online store, and assigns DOI identifiers to its publications, reflecting its commitment to academic discoverability and metadata standards.

History

FCR Yayın LTD was founded in 1986 in Turkey. From its base in Ankara, the company built a publishing programme centred on academic works in the social sciences and humanities. Over the decades it expanded its catalogue to include titles in Turkish, English, German, French and Arabic, and by the 2020s it reported having published around 2,000 works. The company operates through five distinct imprints. Fecr, the flagship imprint, focuses on Islamic theology (ilahiyat) and also publishes biography and travel literature. Eskiyeni covers philosophy, sociology, psychology, anthropology and the history of religions. Bilay is dedicated to theology and undergraduate course book series. Meneviş and Kitabe extend the group's coverage into further areas of the humanities and social sciences. FCR Yayın has received repeated recognition from the Türkiye Yazarlar Birliği (Turkish Writers' Union). Three Fecr titles were named Book of the Year: Afrika Seyahatnamesi in 2015, İyilik Yolunda Uzaklar Yakın in 2017, and Hz. Muhammed in 2019. In 2021, Fecr was selected as Publisher of the Year by the same organisation. The publisher maintains an active online store where new releases are featured, often with promotional discounts. It assigns DOI identifiers to its publications, supporting academic citation and discoverability. As of the mid-2020s, FCR Yayın continues to publish new titles across its imprints, with recent releases including works on Islamic theology, postmetaphysical philosophy, values education, hospital spiritual care, and Hebrew translations of the Qur'an.
