Abstract

Bu çalışma Türkiye’de dini bir yönetime hangi seçmen gruplarının destek verdiğini Dünya Değerler Araştırması verisi kullanarak incelemektedir. Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarından beri dindar muhafazakârlar ve seküler gruplar arasındaki ayrışma bugün de hala devam etmektedir. İki grup arasındaki bu ayrışma daha önceden merkez-çevre teorisi ile açıklansa da yakın dönemde Türkiye siyasetinde yaşanan değişiklikler ile merkez ve çevre arasındaki ayırım bir kültür mücadelesine (kulturkampf) evirilmiştir. Çalışmamız, bu ayrışmanın temel aldığı değişkenler özelinde göstermektedir ki şehirde yaşayan, cinsiyet eşitliğine daha fazla destek veren veya Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi ile Millet İttifakını diğer partilere tercih eden katılımcılar dini yönetime daha az onay vermektedir. Bilime daha şüpheci yaklaşan, sol-sağ düzleminde kendini sağa yerleştiren veya Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi ile Cumhur İttifakını diğer partilere tercih eden seçmenler ise dini yönetime daha fazla destek vermektedir.

Support for a Religious System in Turkey: A World Values Survey Analysis

Abstract

This study examines which voter groups support a religious system in Turkey using data from the World Values Survey. Since the early years of the Republic, the divergence between religious conservatives and secular groups still continues today. Although divergence between the two groups was previously explained by the center-periphery theory, it is evolved into a new cultural struggle (kulturkampf) with the recent changes in Turkish politics. This article shows that participants who live in the urban areas, who support gender equality more, or who prefer the Republican People's Party and Nation Alliance to other parties approve of religious rule less. On the other hand, voters who are more skeptical about science, who place themselves on the right on the left-right spectrum, or who prefer the Justice and Development Party and the People's Alliance to other parties support religious system more.
