Abstract:

In recent years, there has been a serious transformation in the concept of public service and its content with the change of classical state understanding. Many new concepts and practices are on the agenda within this transformation. The process is shaped by the dominance of new right politics. The new right idea has seen public administrations as the easiest way to transfer ideas from economic liberalism and new conservatism to practice. The approach that emerged in the 1970s began to become effective in public administrations, with Thatcher's leadership as the British Conservative Party leader in 1979 and the US winning the Reagan election in 1980 and implementing new conservatism principles. The new right has been trying to influence public administration with private sector models in recent years. In this process, privatization, liberalization and localization applications are the main tools used in the process of the formation of this model. This process, in which new right politics directly affects public service understanding with Thatcherism in England and Reaganism in the USA, has been adopted in Turkey. Following the military coup of September 12, 1980 in the country, the Anatolian Party, which ruled under the leadership of Turgut Ozal, has taken the lead of both Istanbul and Anatolian capital and has made significant changes and started a new process called Ozalism with new right policies. In this study, the process will be examined in detail.
