Özet:

Democracy is a very expensive form of government. Political parties donate from various sources to conduct elections and routine activities. But this source flow, which is questioned by some, brings serious consequences in preserving the integrity of democracy. However, increasing numbers of countries have opened the way to public subsidies and direct funding to parties and political activities, aiming at reducing the dependence on the source-marked money, equating political opportunities and bringing more transparency and accountability to democratic processes. In our country, research is also being carried out on the way to a quality democracy. This study, based on the importance of the financing of politics in the world and in Turkey for Kaiteli democracy, in the light of the research carried out in this area in our country and in the world, has been attempted to provide clarity on the subject, identify the differences in practice and provide a list of suitable options for Turkey. The research is structured on a multi-methodic design and evidence sources. Country case studies from all regions of the world have been selected to compare public policies and monitor the underlying historical processes of campaign financing reform in a specific context. The comparison shows that many factors produce a significant political financial reform in all circumstances and generally create pressure on new legislation by combining a mixture of long-term historical conditions and short-term catalysts.
