| Summary/Abstract |
Social democratic parties in Western democracies have developed new strategies and policies to adapt to changing domestic and international conditions. The principal party of the center-left in Turkey, the Republican People's Party, has performed poorly as the main opposition party due to its failure to devise new policies that address critical social and economic issues in Turkey. Moreover, the party has failed to function effectively as a result of organizational problems that have undermined its strength

| Summary/Abstract |
The Turkish Constitution, which was drafted in 1982 under the aegis of the military regime, has been the subject of protracted domestic and international criticisms for its shortcomings according to international democratic norms. There had been a number of changes to the Constitution during the 1990s to address some of these shortcomings. In particular, there have been important amendments and changes to the Constitution between 2002 and 2004 that have led to significant improvements in fundamental rights and liberties, political rights, the rule of law, and civil-military relations. This essay examines the changes that have taken place to the Turkish Constitution and their ramifications on Turkish politics

| Summary/Abstract |
This article analyzes shifting patterns of confrontation and consensus between adherents of three Turkish political camps: Kemalists, Islamists, and liberals. It is argued that their proclivity to cooperate or clash is a function of how domestic and international forces impinge upon their respective understandings of secularism and pluralism. From 2002 to 2005, an Islamist-liberal consensus, supported by pro-EU Kemalists, drove EU accession-oriented reform. This consensus collapsed by late 2005 due, at the domestic level, to debates over the Islamic headscarf and Article 301 of the Turkish penal code, and at the international level, to worsening EU-Turkey relations and the altered geo-strategic balance in the Middle East. These developments fueled a Kemalist-Islamist confrontation over secularism while providing for a common Kemalist-Islamist position on national identity politics. Since Kemalists control the state and Islamists the government, the Islamist-Kemalist clash over secularism and consensus over identity politics has excluded liberal views from the policymaking process, effectively halting reform

| Summary/Abstract |
The Turkish political system has experienced myriad changes since its transition to democracy in 1983, including a shift in labor's role. Although only studied infrequently, labor constitutes an important arena of Turkish politics. This essay investigates the historical development of Turkish labor, with particular focus on its transformation since the mid-1980s. The essay argues that the threefold shift in the political strategies, the socioeconomic structure, and the ideo-intellectual attitude of labor has turned it into an important actor in Turkish democratization

| Summary/Abstract |
The Justice and Development Party (AKP) has become an effective and highly dynamic force in Turkish politics. The short time span between its sudden birth and its rise to power, as well as its remarkable achievements in economic and social reforms as part of the process towards European integration, has drawn a lot of attention to the party. It is important to investigate the circumstances in which the party was born, the interests it represents, and the political space it is likely to fill. In order to do that, the AKP will be first analyzed by an approach based on the argument that political parties, identities, and discourses do not develop independently from political, societal, and historical realities through which new threats, opportunities, interests, and knowledge are formed. Second, it will be argued that political parties have their own momentum and dynamism in terms of their historical continuity and the socialization of their leaders and adherents. Turkey, despite the continuity of its historical memory, is undergoing a radical social transformation. By interpreting the AKP in the context of these transformations, a representative picture of its dynamic and contextual (deterministic) existence can be drawn out. The article concludes that the AKP is neither a political design of its leaders and conditions, nor is it a political becoming understood and shaped by public perceptions and expectations; it is both

| Summary/Abstract |
This essay examines the impact of the 2002 parliamentary elections in Turkey on the Turkish party system. While the 2002 elections did not indicate a trend toward the stabilization of the electorate, they ushered in a number of important changes in the party system, including the rise to power of a political party with an Islamist pedigree, the emergence of a two-party system in the parliament, and the replacement of coalition or minority governments with single-party majority rule. After delineating the changes in the party system, the study discusses possible new paths for party competition in Turkey in the near future
