This book aims to analyse the historical roots of the Turkish democratic system and the Turkish political elites in the Republican period (since 1920 up to 2000 s). After a very brief information about contemporary Turkey, the political development of Turkey and an evaluation of Turkish Democracy will be discussed. Also, some information about Kemalist Turkish Revolution and Kemalism, which have shaped contemporary Turkish society will be given. Folloving the chapter of general conceptual and theoretical background, an extensive analysis and discussion about the social anatomy of Turkish political elites and Turkish political leaders will be provided. This section consists five chapters. The large majority of Turkish parliamentary elites were well educated, male, married, with a small family size and middle aged. Moreover the large majority of parliamentary elites were lawyers and civil bureaucrats. Turkish deputies have exhibited an elitist character as compared with Turkish society. Nevertheless, this elitist character has begun to change in recent years.

Turkey has a strategic place in world politics. As Ahmad (1991: 226 and 1993) said, Turkey's strategic location on the Straits and on the cross-roads between Europe and Asia will remain unchanged. Turkey is a meeting point between Europe and Asia not only geographically, but also ideologically between Eastern and Western civilisation The Turkish secular and democratic system has provided a model to both the Islamic Middle East and the new Turkish states of the former Soviet Union. The new state was created from the ruins of the Ottoman Empire in 1920s. Turkey has turned her face completely to the west since the foundation of the Republic. The economic and social development, as Hale examined (Hale, 1981), have proceeded in a predominantly liberal competitive political system since the 1940s. This paper will concern itself with the Turkish political leaders. Firstly, a brief information about the political structure of contemporary Turkey will be given. Then, the major findings on Turkish top political elites will be presented. The top political elites comprise all the presidents, presidents of the TGNA, prime ministers, and ministers who served in three or more cabinets during the whole modern Republican history of Turkey. In doing this, the variables of age, educational level, education type, occupation, foreign languages, gender and marital status, family size were used.

This study was designed to find general characteristics of Turkish Parliamentary Elites. Social background characteristics were employed to realise the purposes. Documentary and historical research techniques (Bulmer, 1994) were used during the study. Two different data sets were created for analysis from the governmental publications and records and publications of the Turkish Grand National Assembly which is the main legislative organ in Turkey. As a result of examining all the assemblies in the Turkish Republican period (since 1920 up to 1990's) these major findings were discovered: The large majority of Turkish parliamentary elites were well educated, male, married, with a small family size and middle aged. Moreover the large majority of parliamentary elites were lawyers and civil bureaucrats. Turkish deputies have exhibited an elitist character as compared with Turkish society. Nevertheless, this elitist character has begun to change in recent years: a more differentiated development have begun.

Since the establishment in 1945 of a constitutional democracy, political parties have figured prominently in Turkish politics. This book, first published in 1991, examines the role they have played. Key features of the political culture of the Turkish republic have created dilemmas for multi-party democracy: Atatürkism still exerts a powerful influence on the country’s bureaucratic and military elites. With their notion of ‘responsible leadership’ and of democracy as rational intellectual debate in pursuit of the ‘best’ policy, they have expected an unrealistic degree of idealism and statesmanlike behaviour from the leaders of political parties. Three times, in 1960, 1971 and 1980, the military has intervened in politics – on the third occasion to undertake wholesale constitutional and legal restructuring aimed at producing ‘sensible’ politicians. Given these ambiguous circumstances, what role have the political parties themselves played in the promotion and functioning of democracy in Turkey, and what are their attitudes to the issues involved? This collection of essays discusses political parties since the foundation of the Turkish Republic in 1923 until the 1990s. With contributions from leading political scientists and historians of modern Turkey, it is indispensable reading for all those concerned with the country.

The major focus of this study will be the Turkish political elites. Both top political leaders and parliamentary elites will be identified as the Turkish political elites. All the members of the Turkish parliament who served since the establishment of the Republic (including the assembly of 1920) to 1995 were examined under the name of "Turkish parliamentary elites". The second group is Turkish political leaders. They also can be classified as the Turkish top political elites. This category comprises all the presidents, the presidents of the Turkish Grand National Assembly (TGNA) and prime ministers. In addition, the ministers who served 4 or more times for the entire Republican period were accepted as top political leaders and taken into account in the research. The major social background characteristics, such as age, gender, family size, marital status, educational and occupational qualifications will be used to achieve this. Documentary and historical research techniques (Moyser, 1987) were used during the study. Two different data sets were created for analysis from governmental publications and records and publications of the Turkish Grand National Assembly which is the main legislative organ in Turkey.

It was aimed to analyse elites and power in contemporary Turkey in this book. The major goal was to construct a social portrait of Turkish elites, in other words to outline the social anatomy of the elites in Turkish society by using empirical data. The occupiers of the key positions in the major elite sectors were accepted as the elite. A total of five major elite groups were eventually examined. Extensive field researches comprise the major data sources of the study. Detailed interviews were conducted with members of Turkish elite groups. Additionally, documentary and historical data techniques, even secondary data were used. Education is the most important factor for elite recruitment in Turkish society. The media elites and political elites share similar social backgrounds. The members of these two elite groups have a relatively higher social class background than the Turkish labour union elites. The Turkish elites present a higher level consensually unified national elite character. However as a result of its nature, this consensus is not very sharp and exact on some issues. Following the demo-elite perspective this consensus can be called a "relative elite consensus."

The Turkey of today little resembles that of recent decades. Its economy has expanded hugely, new political elites have emerged, and the once powerful Kemalist military is no longer a potent and dominant political player. Meanwhile, new prosperity has had many unexpected social and political repercussions, pre-eminent among which is the advent of the Justice and Development Party (AKP), which first came to power in 2002 by downplaying its Islamist leanings and marketing itself as a centre-right party. After several terms in office, and amid unprecedented popularity, the conduct of the AKP and its leading cadres has faced growing criticism. Turkey has yet to solve its Kurdish question, and its foreign policy is increasingly under threat as it balances relations with Iran, Israel, Iraq and Russia, to name only a few of its more demanding interlocutors. Widespread domestic protests gripped the country in 2013. The government is now perceived by many to be corrupt, unaccountable, intimidating of the press and intolerant of alternative political views and criticism.Has this once promising democracy descended into a tyranny of the majority led by a charismatic leader, Recep Tayyip Erdogan? Is Turkey more polarised now than ever in its recent history? These are among the questions posed in this timely primer on a rising economic power.
