Abstract:

After the return to multi-party life, Turkish politics expanded its ideological range around the new dynamics revealed by the urbanization phenomenon. As a result of the fall of political divisions before 1980 and the increase in the dose of violence, the army, which was the carrier of the carrier regime, ended the political conflict by putting down the government. After the coup, the basic acceptance of the interregime, which went into the search for a new law and politics with a high dose of authority, was the de-politization of ideological separation. The capitalist economic model, which the military administration continued economically, was implemented by the bureaucrat Turgut Özal on January 24, 1980 before the coup. Ozal, who turned the internal closed economy into an international model, entered in cooperation with the soldiers as the economic manager of the interregime and followed a relatively harmonious policy. After the multi-party order, Özal, who is in power with his party Motherland, became the central actor of politics with his ideology, economic policy, political relations and international relations. After the death of Özal, who continued his strength as a decisive actor in the Çankaya Köşkü, the Turkish politics entered a new conflict. The study aims to show how the Turkish politics, which provides a fragmented and conflicting political image before and after the social, ideological and political aspects, was consolidated through the policy that Özal followed in the eighties, and has experienced a harmonious and recovering experience.

Abstract:

In the aftermath of the multi-party period, the Turkish politics expanded its ideological range according to the new dynamics, that were resulted by the "urbanization" reality. In the pre-1980 period, when the political division turned to be an underground battle and the violent acts peaked, the military, which was seen as the representative of the regime, put an end to the political conflict through seizing the governance. Following the coup, the de-politicization of the ideological discrepancy became the main acceptance of the interim regime, who looked for more authoritarian legal and political system. Before the coup, on January 24, 1980, the capitalist economic model, which remained as the economic system by the military administration, was put in action by bureaucrat Turgut Özal. Özalmanaged to transform the isolated and protectionist economic model to a wider and international model and, as the interim regime's top official responsible for economy, he started cooperating with the military and relatively followed a coherent policy. When the multi-party order was over, Özal came to power with his own political party, the Anavatan(Motherland) Party, and became the center of Turkish politics thanks to his ideology, economic road map, political ties and international relations. Following the death of Özal, who was a game changer actor in power, including during his terms in ÇankayaPalace, the Turkish politics entered into another tumultuous period. The primary goal of this study is to reveal the pre- and post- period of the 1980s through analyzing the consolidation of Özal's years and impact of his coherent and recovery policies. Our study first shows the political perspective of the military administration and then the ideological perspective of Özal and, secondly, by examining Özal's political experience in three separate phases according to reel politics, it aims to sort out the political essence of 1980s.
