dc.description.abstractTurkish political parties display an oligarchic leadership structure and experience difficulty in changing leaders. In addition to state directed modernization producing a legacy of single party rule which Turkish democracy has inherited and the powerful central state as a model, the prevalence of clientelistic relations and the evolution of a culture supportive of leadership oligarchy have all contributed to leadership oligarchy. The oligarchic tendencies continue to be supported by the continuation of extensive clientelistic relations and the construction of a legal framework that supports it. The organizational structure of parties, their methods of candidate designation for public office and many other factors lend support to the continuation of leadership oligarchy. Oligarchic leadership structure is dysfunctional for the well-functioning of a democratic system.en_US
