More about Turkey

Politics and law

The Republic of Turkey, founded in 1929, adopted a new constitution in 1982. Parliament played a strong role and the separation of powers was established. In 2017, according to the electoral commission, a slim majority of Turks voted for a constitutional amendment that transformed parliamentary democracy into a presidential system. The President now has extensive powers. He is elected for a term of five years and governs a maximum of two terms. He is the commander-in-chief of the military, appoints the ministers of his cabinet and high-ranking state officials, all of whom he can dismiss at any time. Its decisions and resolutions act like laws. He can introduce the draft budget to parliament. The parliament is also elected for five years in the same election as the President. The president can dissolve it without any preconditions and schedule new elections. It is no longer possible for parliament to control the president. In 2018, RT Erdoğan was elected the first president under this constitution.

2001 began the rise of the former mayor of Istanbul, R. T. Erdoğan . As Prime Minister (from 2003) he carried out numerous legal reforms in order to bring Turkey closer to European standards. The economy boomed under his government. Despite a bribery scandal involving senior government officials, Erdoğan was elected president in 2014 with 51.8% of the vote. In 2016, military and police units loyal to the government put down an attempted coup carried out by parts of the army against Erdoğan. He had thousands of judicial, administrative and military employees imprisoned because they were close to the Gülen movement.

The constitution guarantees freedom of the press and freedom of expression. Even so, they are severely restricted. Putschists tried to overthrow the Erdoğan government in mid-2016. Since then, the government has shut down nearly 200 TV stations, news agencies and print media. 90% of the remaining media are financially or personally linked to the ruling AKP party. Internet and social media (50 million users) are blocked for days by the government depending on the occasion.

The Kurds have been fighting for the state was founded by more self-determination and an independent state. The militant Kurdish Workers’ Party PKK carries out attacks in order to enforce Kurdish interests. Parts of the Kurdish areas in the south-east of the country have been under forced administration since 2016.

In terms of foreign policy, Turkey has been oriented towards the West since it was founded, it is striving to join the EU and is a member of NATO. Accession negotiations with the EU have been on hold since the coup in mid-2016. Turkey is turning more towards its immediate neighbors and Russia.

In 2016, the European Union and Turkey signed a controversial agreement. Turkey should prevent refugees from entering the EU via the Greek islands and take back refugees who are not entitled to asylum. In return, Turkey received 6 billion euros from the EU until 2018 to improve the living conditions of refugees in Turkey.

The Turks describe the education system with the formula »4 + 4 + 4«. Children start school at the age of five and a half and spend four years each in elementary, middle and high school. A final examination at the Gymnasiale Oberschule is a prerequisite for studying at one of the 129 state and 72 private universities. After primary school, Turkish children can also switch to a religious, i.e. Islamic, school, the Imam Hatip schools. In addition to these state schools, there are private and international schools that have a higher standard of education.
