A set of theoretical explanations helps to delve into the issue more deeply. In that regard, the three main connotations of the left and the right which arose out of the French Revolution, the socioeconomic reading and post-materialist vs. materialist divide would shed light onto the dynamic and instable nature of these concepts. Then, underlining the contextual differences influencing the interpretation of the left and the right as well as the significance of the concept of the center, the center-right in Turkey is analyzed through three parameters. iii Regarding the center-right’s position on democracy, this dissertation argues that the Turkish center-right is eager to employ democracy as a procedural tenet rather than a substantial one. Thus, the Turkish center-right parties are eager to concentrate on winning the elections, catching the people, representing the majority’s expectations and struggling for the will of nation rather than putting emphasis on the ends of a democratic system, equality related issues and so on. The center-right parties have an affinity to take democracy as the rules of the game. Center-right parties’ relationship with the state in Turkey is analyzed within two subtopics. First of all, in terms of power, center-right parties, represent the periphery, located in opposition to ‘center’ which brought about a reciprocal suspicion between these parties and the center. Changing the character of the system also toyed with the very concept of the center which was occasionally dominated by the CHP, bureaucracy, military and so on. Secondly, the allocation of state resources and the state’s position on the economics set another characteristic of the center-right parties. These parties intensively stress liberal economic options in their programs and discourses. Nevertheless, until ANAP tenure, the reflection of that discoursive position to the policies was quite limited. On the other hand, as service-oriented parties, center-right in Turkey to a large extent deals with development and technical progress which differs from the cultural and symbolic developmentalist insistence of the left. On the other hand, center-right parties engage in cliental or patronage relationships through the utilization of service for political gains. All in all, regarding both power and economics axes, the center-right’s position vis-à-vis the state brings us the conclusion that it was actually a love and hate relationship. iv Given the militant character of the very Republican ideology in Turkey, center-right digresses from that compulsive secularism and tries to lift the bans on religious oppression by trying to liberalize the visibility of religion in the public sphere, adopt new schooling, banking and other such measures to support religious followers , and to perceive religion as a cultural instrument through which it may communicate with the people. Nevertheless, the center-right in Turkey is very aware of the fragility of the secularism issue and does not promote a state system based on religion. On that subject, the center-right parties in Turkey tend to introduce a passive version of secularism and stay within the boundaries of the regime without challenging the state structure at all. In conclusion, the procedural employment of democracy, a love and hate relationship with the state and passive secularism are three main defining notions of the center-right in Turkey. If these parties move toward from these main three principles, they lose their ground and begin to collapse. In other words, if any of the following options occurs, it will stand as a proof of having moved beyond these three principles, and the center-right parties will be weakened: The drastic increase of authoritarianism without concerning democracy (even its procedural or majoritarian means), paying much more emphasis on the love side of the coin regarding its relations with the state and positioning next to the militant secularism. v ÖZET TÜRKİYE’DE MERKEZ SAĞIN TİPOLOJİSİ Kaya Osmanbaşoğlu, Gülsen Doktora, Siyaset Bilimi Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Yrd. Doç Dr. Berrak Burçak Haziran 2014 Bu çalışma, Türkiye’de merkez sağın iç politika ve söylemini, demokrasi, devlet ve laiklikten oluşan üç ana parametre üzerinden analiz etmektedir. Birtakım teorik açıklamalar da, konuyu daha derinden incelemeye yardımcı olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda, sağ ve sol kavramlarının Fransız İhtilali’nden doğan, sosyo-ekonomik okumaya dayanan ve mataryalist - post-mataryalist ayrışmasını baz alan üç temel çağrışımı, sağ ve sol kavramlarının dinamik ve değişken doğasına ışık tutmaktadır. Akabinde, sağ ve solu vi yorumlamada bağlamsal farklılıkların etkisinin ve ‘merkez’ kavramının öneminin altı çizildikten sonra, Türkiye’de merkez sağ, bu üç parametre (demokrasi, devlet, laiklik) üzerinden analiz edilmiştir. Merkez sağın demokrasi hususundaki pozisyonu göz önünde bulundurulduğunda, bu tez, Türkiye’de merkez sağın demokrasiyi zengin (substantial) demokrasi anlayışından çok, prosedürel bir akide olarak ele aldığını iddia etmektedir. Böylelikle, Türkiye’de merkez sağ partiler, demokratik sistemin sonuçları, eşitlikle ilgili meseleler ve buna benzer konulardan ziyade, seçim kazanmaya, kitleleri yakalamaya, çoğunluğun beklentilerini temsil etmeye ve milli irade için mücadele etmeye konsantre olmaktadırlar. Merkez sağ partiler, demokrasiyi ‘oyunun kuralları’ şeklinde yorumlama eğilimindedirler. Türkiye’de merkez sağ partilerin devletle olan ilişkisi iki alt başlıkta incelenmiştir. Öncelikle, güç ekseni ele alındığında, merkez sağ partiler, ‘merkez’e karşı ‘perifer’i temsil ederler ve bu da, merkez sağ partiler ile ‘merkez’ arasında karşılıklı bir güvensizliği beraberinde getirir. Sistemin sürekli karakter değişimine uğraması, bahsedilen bu ‘merkez’in kimi zaman CHP, kimi zaman bürokrasi ve kimi zaman da asker vb. tarafından domine edilmesine neden olmaktadır. Diğer yandan, devlet kaynaklarının dağıtılması ve devletin ekonomideki rolü, merkez sağ partilerin bir başka yönünü ortaya koyar. Bu partiler, program ve söylemlerinde liberal ekonomik tercihleri yoğun biçimde vurgulamaktadırlar. Ne var ki, ANAP dönemine kadar bu söylemsel pozisyonun hayata geçirilmesi oldukça sınırlı kalmıştır. Ayrıca, hizmet odaklı partiler olarak, Türkiye’de merkez sağ, solun kültürel ve sembolik gelişme konusundaki ısrarından farklı olarak, büyük ölçüde kalkınma ve teknik gelişme ile ilgilenmiştir. Öte vii yandan, merkez sağ partiler, hizmetlerini siyasi kazanca dönüştürmek adına, patronaj ilişkileri kurmuşlardır. Sonuç olarak, hem güç hem de ekonomi eksenlerinde merkez sağın devletle olan ilişkisi bize bu ilişkinin aslında bir aşk-nefret ilişkisi olduğu çıkarımına götürmektedir. Türkiye’de Cumhuriyet ideolojisinin laiklik konusundaki militan karakteri hatırlandığında, merkez sağın bu şekilde zorlayıcı bir laiklik anlayışından uzaklaştığı, din üzerindeki baskıları bir nebze olsun azaltmaya çalıştığı, dinin kamusal alanda görünürlüğünü özgürleştirdiği, dindarlar için alternatif okul, banka ve bunun gibi farklı seçeneklerin yaygınlaştılmasını benimsediği ve dini, kitlelerle iletişim kurmaya yarayan kültürel bir aygıt olarak algıladığı görülmektedir.

  • Civil-Military Relations: a Comparative Analysis of the Role of the Military in the Political Transformation of Post-War Turkey and Greece: 1980-1995
    CIVIL-MILITARY RELATIONS: A COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF THE ROLE OF THE MILITARY IN THE POLITICAL TRANSFORMATION OF POST-WAR TURKEY AND GREECE: 1980-1995 Dr. Gerassimos Karabelias Final Report submitted to North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) in June 1998 1 ABSTRACT This report attempts to determine the evolution of civil-military relations in Turkey and Greece during the 1980-1995 period through an examination of the role of the military in the political transformation of both countries. Since the mid-1970s and especially after the Fall of the Berlin Wall, the struggle for spreading the winds of democracy around the globe has been the goal of all western states and particularly the United States of America. However, taking into consideration the volatility in the Balkans and in Central Asia, the military institution of Turkey and Greece which gave the impression that it withdrew in the barracks after their last intervention in 1980-83 and 1967-74 respectively, could easily be forced or even tempted to assume a greater responsibility in the conduct of each country’s domestic and foreign affairs. Only through a better understanding of its role during the 1980-95 period, we would be able to determine the feasibility of such scenarios. Using a multi-factorial model as a protection from the short- sighted results which the majority of mono-factorial approaches produce, this report starts with the analysis of the distinct role which the Armed Forces of each country have had in the historical evolution of their respective civil-military relations up to 1980 (Part One of Chapters Two and Three).

  • Ottoman History of South-East Europe by Markus Koller
    Ottoman History of South-East Europe by Markus Koller The era of Ottoman Rule, which began in the fourteenth century, is among the most controversial chapters of South-East European history. Over several stages of conquest, some of them several decades long, large parts of South-Eastern Europe were incorporated into the Ottoman Empire, or brought under its dominion. While the Ottomans had to surrender the territories north of the Danube and the Sava after the Peace Treaty of 1699, the decline of Ot- toman domination began only in the nineteenth century. Structures of imperial power which had been implemented in varying forms and intensity in different regions were replaced by emerging nation states in the nineteenth century. The development of national identities which accompanied this transformation was greatly determined by the new states distancing themselves from Ottoman rule, and consequently the image of "Turkish rule" has been a mainly negative one until the present. However, latest historical research has shown an increasingly differentiated image of this era of South-East European history. TABLE OF CONTENTS 1. Military and Political Developments 2.

  • Andrzej Adamczyk Kemalism and Modern Turkey
    Kemalism and Modern Turkey | Andrzej Adamczyk 14 | 15 Andrzej Adamczyk Kemalism and Modern Turkey Abstract: The paper is devoted to internal contradictions of Kemalism, resulting from two tenden- cies which were distinct visible in Turkey during the life of Kemal Atatürk: a democratic one, represented by the constitutional acts from the years 1920–1924, and an authori- tarian one, which was connected with the ideology of Kemalism. The institutional chang- es in Turkey in the 1920s had been directed towards introduction of a democratic consti- tutional order, but lack of proper social and economic premises made application of democratic constitutional norms difficult, facilitating transition to the single-party sys- tem contradictory to democratic principles. In the first part of the paper the author de- scribes the most important constitutional acts, beginning from the 1876 Ottoman Con- stitution till the 1924 Turkish Constitution. This analysis shows beyond doubt that the goal of political system's reform was introduction of the democratic constitutional order. The form of government chosen by Turkey had many disadvantages however which were listed in the paper. The second part of the paper is devoted to the second tendency, distinct vis- ible in Turkey during the Atatürk presidency, i.e. the authoritarian tendency. The author underlines main events directing towards reversal of constitutional relations between the parliament (the Grand National Assembly) and executive in favour of the executive, and presents in a concise manner conclusions from an analysis of the six principles of Kemalism (‘the six arrows’). He maintains that incorporation of these prinicples into the Kemalism and Modern Turkey | Andrzej Adamczyk 16 | 17 Turkish Constitution in 1937 caused internal contradictions in the Constitution.

  • A Transnational Cleavage Across the Bosphorus? the Role of Globalizing Forces in Turkish Politics
    A TRANSNATIONAL CLEAVAGE ACROSS THE BOSPHORUS? THE ROLE OF GLOBALIZING FORCES IN TURKISH POLITICS Edgar Owen Kinnier IV A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of the TransAtlantic Masters in the Department of Political Science in the College of Arts and Sciences Chapel Hill 2020 Approved by: Gary Marks Ann-Kristin Jonasson Liesbet Hooghe John Stephens © 2020 Edgar Owen Kinnier IV ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Edgar Owen Kinnier IV: A Transnational Cleavage Across the Bosphorus? (Under the direction of Gary Marks) The pressures of a world-wide financial crisis, mass migration, and a globalizing economy have created a new transnational cleavage between the “winners” and “losers” of globalization. While European and North American democracies are not the only states to feel the pressures of globalization, the emergence of a transnational cleavage has been under- examined outside of these areas. One clear candidate when examining transnational forces on political parties is Turkey. In Turkey, the Justice and Development Party (AKP) has moved from pro-European “Muslim Democrats” to defensive nationalism, while the opposition, the Republican People’s Party (CHP), has attempted a pivot toward “new left” politics. Can the pressures of an emerging transnational cleavage explain party movement in Turkey? This thesis finds partial support for the theory that globalization drives positional realignment amongst Turkish parties, but further research

Dr. Fatma Gürses Kastamonu Üniversitesi, İletişim Fakültesi Gazetecilik Bölümü Öz Rock müzik, Amerika’da ve uluslararası alanda yaygınlık kazanarak kitleye ulaşan popüler bir tür olmuştur. Dünyada, çeşitli konuların tartışıldığı, yurttaşların bu tartışmalara katıldığı, müzik akımları ve gençlik hareketinin hızla yaygınlaştığı değişim yılları olan 1960’larda bu müzik türü, siyasal söylem biçimlerinin kitleselleşmesine aracı- lık etmiştir. Dünyadaki bu değişim ve özgürlükçü hareketten etkilenen Türkiye’de ise bu dönem, yurttaşın kamusal-siyasal özne olarak algılandığı, yabancı müziklerin ülkeye gi- rişinin hızlandığı, yurttaşın kendini ifade alanı bulduğu yıllardır. 12 Eylül 1980 askeri darbesi ile Türkiye’de bu özgürlükçü ortam kesintiye uğratılmış ve siyasal sistemde kök- lü değişiklikler yapılmıştır. Bu çalışma, düzen eleştirisi getiren rock müzikten etkilene- rek Türkiye’de ortaya çıkan Anadolu rock olarak adlandırılan müzik türünün temsilcile- ri olan Cem Karaca ve Barış Manço’nun, 1960-1980 yılları arasındaki söz konusu siyasal dinamikleri şarkı sözlerinde temsil etme biçimlerini incelemeye çalışacaktır. Bu iki mü- zisyenin çalışmalarını temel alarak Türkiye’de Anadolu rock müziğinin, siyasal unsurla- rı hangi söylemsel öğelerle sabitledikleri, neleri dışlayarak veya neleri bünyesine alarak söylemi inşa ettiklerini ortaya çıkarmak çalışmanın temel hedefidir.
