الأحزاب السياسية و النظام السياسي و تركيا

الملخص EN

Even though they are not the sole forms of organization in a democratic system, political parties constitute the most effective bodies of people’s will.

A large volume of empirical research has been conducted for a concrete clarification of the cyclical relationship between the types of election system, the political party system and the political system.

This paper aims to examine this relationship by focusing on different states, with a special focus on Turkey.

It argued that the more democratic a political system is, the more democratically political parties will have to function, and that the higher the eagerness of political parties to function democratically, the more the democratic capacity of a political system will expand.
