Name, Last name: Esin Kıvrak Köroğlu Signature: iii ABSTRACT ―CHAIN‖ OF POPULISM FROM THE DEMOCRAT PARTY TO THE JUSTICE AND DEVELOPMENT PARTY IN TURKEY Kıvrak Köroğlu, Esin Ph.D., Department of Political Science and Public Administration Supervisor: Prof. Dr. AyĢe Ayata July 2016, 257 pages This dissertation analyses the relationship between populism and democracy in Turkey from the perspective of Laclau‘s theory on populism, focusing on the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party as illustrative cases. As the framework that Laclau developed to the end of studying the phenomenon of populism takes discourse analysis as its methodology, this dissertation addresses the discourse of democracy adopted by the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party. The cases of these two political parties fits Laclau‘s theoretical framework perfectly, which provides us with the opportunity to reach key findings on the relationship between populism and democracy in Turkey. Populism is believed to contribute to the further development of democracy at times, and is deemed to be a pathological constituent of democratic systems at others.This dissertation demonstrates that the cases of the Democrat Party and the Justice and Development Party give revealing clues regarding the nature of the relationship between populism and democracy as experienced in Turkey. In this context, while carrying out a discussion on this relationship, this dissertation analyzes the circumstances in which populism contributed to and those in which it impaired democracy in Turkey. Keywords: Populism, Democracy, Laclau‘s Theory of Populism, the Democrat Party, the Justice and Development Party iv ÖZ DEMOKRAT PARTĠDEN ADALET VE KALKINMA PARTĠSĠNE TÜRKĠYE‘DE POPÜLĠZM ZĠNCĠRĠ Kıvrak Köroğlu, Esin Doktora, Siyaset Bilimi ve Kamu Yönetimi Bölümü Tez Yöneticisi: Prof. Dr. AyĢe Ayata Temmuz 2016, 257 sayfa Bu tez, Laclau‘nun popülizm teorisi perspektifinden, Demokrat Parti ve Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi örneklerine odaklanarak Türkiye‘de popülizm ve demokrasi arasındaki iliĢkiyi incelemektedir. Laclau‘nun popülizmi incelerken geliĢtirdiği çerçeve, metodoloji olarak söylem analizi yöntemini kullanmaktadır, bu doğrultuda bu tez Demokrat Parti ve Adalet ve Kalkınma Partileri tarafından benimsenen demokrasi söyleminin analizine dayanmaktadır. Laclau‘nun popülizm teorisinde sunduğu çerçeve bu iki örnek olaya uyum sağlamaktadır ve bu çerçeve Türkiye‘de popülizm ve demokrasi arasındaki iliĢki üzerine temel bulgular ortaya koyma imkanı sunmaktadır. Demokratik toplumlarda popülizm bazı dönemlerde demokratik sistemlerin geliĢimine katkı sağlarken bazı dönemlerde demokratik sistemin patolojik bir öğesi olarak değerlendirilmektedir. Bu tezde Demokrat Parti ve Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi örneklerinin bu tartıĢmayı açmak için uygun örnekler olduğu gösterilmiĢtir. Bu örnekler üzerinden Türkiye‘de popülizm ve demokrasi tartıĢması yapılırken Türkiye‘de hangi durumlarda popülizmin demokratik sistemin geliĢimine katkıda bulunduğu, hangi dönemlerde ise demokratik sisteme zarar verdiği analiz edilmiĢtir.

I now stand quite far from the point where I started to write this dissertation, and looking back at that point, I see that I have become a new and much stronger person that I had not known before, thanks to this very journey that I undertook. To begin with, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to my supervisor Prof. Dr. AyĢe Ayata for her guidance, patience, constructive comments and warm encouragement throughout this study. Not only did she light the way for me with her exceptional scholarship, but she also helped me see that strong woman inside me, waiting long to be discovered. My heartfelt appreciation goes also to Assoc. Prof. Dr. Canan Aslan Akman and Assoc. Prof Dr. Attila Aytekin, who read and reviewed this dissertation multiple times. I want to thank them for their patience and kindness. Also, the valuable contributions that Prof. Dr. Aylin Özman and Assist. Prof. Güliz Dinç made during the jury have been a great help in putting the finishing touches to this dissertation. My father Ferhat Kıvrak has always known how to get me back on my feet with his invaluable encouraging words whenever I felt exhausted during this long academic journey. I cannot thank him enough for never ever losing his faith in me. I never grew in the eyes of my elder sister Füsun and elder brother Faruk, I have always remained their small sister. It is thanks to them that I have not lost my enthusiasm and excitement. I can never forget the generous support that I received throughout this long journey from Burak Köroğlu, who spent many sleepless nights by my side. And lastly, this dissertation would not have been possible without the support of my dearest mother Rufiye Kıvrak, my true companion who shouldered the burden of this journey with me. I wish more than anything that my mother was alive today and that she could read these lines. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS PLAGIARISM ............................................................................................................ iii ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................ iv ÖZ ................................................................................................................................. v DEDICATION ............................................................................................................. vi ACKNOWLEDGMENTS .......................................................................................... vii TABLE OF CONTENTS .......................................................................................... viii LIST OF TABLES ...................................................................................................... xii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS .................................................................................... xiii CHAPTER 1.INTRODUCTION AND THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK ................................................ 1 1.1.

  • Political Parties and Welfare Associations
    Department of Sociology Umeå University Political parties and welfare associations by Ingrid Grosse Doctoral theses at the Department of Sociology Umeå University No 50 2007 Department of Sociology Umeå University Thesis 2007 Printed by Print & Media December 2007 Cover design: Gabriella Dekombis © Ingrid Grosse ISSN 1104-2508 ISBN 978-91-7264-478-6 Grosse, Ingrid. Political parties and welfare associations. Doctoral Dissertation in Sociology at the Faculty of Social Sciences, Umeå University, 2007. ISBN 978-91-7264-478-6 ISSN 1104-2508 ABSTRACT Scandinavian countries are usually assumed to be less disposed than other countries to involve associations as welfare producers. They are assumed to be so disinclined due to their strong statutory welfare involvement, which “crowds-out” associational welfare production; their ethnic, cultural and religious homogeneity, which leads to a lack of minority interests in associational welfare production; and to their strong working-class organisations, which are supposed to prefer statutory welfare solutions. These assumptions are questioned here, because they cannot account for salient associational welfare production in the welfare areas of housing and child-care in two Scandinavian countries, Sweden and Norway. In order to approach an explanation for the phenomena of associational welfare production in Sweden and Norway, some refinements of current theories are suggested. First, it is argued that welfare associations usually depend on statutory support in order to produce welfare on a salient level. Second, it is supposed that any form of particularistic interest in welfare production, not only ethnic, cultural or religious minority interests, can lead to associational welfare. With respect to these assumptions, this thesis supposes that political parties are organisations that, on one hand, influence statutory decisions regarding associational welfare production, and, on the other hand, pursue particularistic interests in associational welfare production.

  • Third Parties, Elections,And Roll-Call Votes: the Populist Party and the Late Nineteenth-Century U.S
    Third Parties, Elections, and Roll-Call Votes 131 SHIGEO HIRANO Columbia University Third Parties, Elections,and Roll-Call Votes: The Populist Party and the Late Nineteenth-Century U.S. Congress What effect do electorally successful third parties have on congressional roll- call votes? There is widespread belief among scholars that third parties influence the policies of the major parties, but there is little systematic evidence of this influence. I exploit the unique historical context surrounding the Populist Party formation in 1892 to examine the effect of the Populist Party’s electoral success on congressional roll-call votes related to Populist issues. The results are consistent with two claims. First, co-optation of the Populist Party’s issues occurred even before the formation of the party. Second, the co-optation of Populist policies does not appear to be corre- lated with the electoral success of the Populist candidates. The appearance of new political parties is a common phenom- enon in all democracies. The conventional wisdom is that these new political parties enter when the established parties are unresponsive to the interests of particular segments of the electorate (Hug 1996; Inglehart 1977, 1990; Kitschelt 1989, 1994; Mazmanian 1974; Rohrschneider 1993; Rosenstone, Behr, and Lazarus 1984; Sundquist 1983). The new political parties gather electoral support by offering policies to meet the demands of the electorate unsatisfied with the policy alternatives offered by the established parties. Thus, the new political parties can potentially help ensure that the policies of candi- dates do not stray too far from the preferences of the electorate. Even in the United States, which has a stable two-party system, new political parties are argued to affect representation.

Its history dates back almost 5000 years. It is situated at a strategic juncture in the Middle East region of South West Asia. Evidence of man’s presence as far back as the Lower Palaeolithic period on the Iranian plateau has been found in the Kerman Shah Valley. And time and again in the course of this long history, Iran has found itself invaded and occupied by foreign powers. Some reference to Iranian history is therefore indispensable for a proper understanding of its subsequent development. The first major civilisation in what is now Iran was that of the Elamites, who might have settled in South Western Iran as early as 3000 B.C. In 1500 B.C. Aryan tribes began migrating to Iran from the Volga River north of the Caspian Sea and from Central Asia. Eventually two major tribes of Aryans, the Persian and Medes, settled in Iran. One group settled in the North West and founded the kingdom of Media. The other group lived in South Iran in an area that the Greeks later called Persis—from which the name Persia is derived.

  • Evaluation of the Social Reasons for Defeating Political Parties in Iran Between the Years of 1942-1954
    EVALUATION OF THE SOCIAL REASONS FOR DEFEATING POLITICAL PARTIES IN IRAN BETWEEN THE YEARS OF 1942-1954 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Mottov of $t|iIos;opIip IN SOCIOLOGY BY Naser Haghi Ghareh Darvishlou UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF Dr. Mohammad Akram DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (IIMOIA) 2012 -S5LM9 Political parties appeared on the scene when actions of an erstwhile political system attained a point of complexity that needed the introduction of a new political setup. Usually, political parties emerge when different classes of society become aware of their own interests, and the people of a country want the right to take part in political issues. The nineteenth century was an important phase in Iranian history, wherein political, social and economic corruption were the most obvious problem that Iranians faced. Tremendous increases of such problems have been the reason for the occurrence of all revolutions and reforms in Iran. With the allied occupation of Iran and the exile of Reza Shah, social chaos increased in the 1940s. Also, as a resuU of the Second World War, and because of the lack of a steady government, the country was led to anarchy. This problem offended Iranians more when they became aware of the degree and speed of development in the western countries. When Iranian intellectuals came into direct contact with western countries, they tried to regenerate the political structure of their own country to bring about political stability. After Reza Shah, especially between 1942 and 1954, there came a unique historical opportimity for Iranian elites to form a democratic political structure, whereas during the reign of Reza Shah, political parties and other active groups had been inactive.
