Abstract

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'deki siyasi partilerin aday belirleme yöntemlerini ortaya koymayı ve bu aday belirleme yöntemlerinin sonuçlarını analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaca ulaşmak için 12 Haziran 2011 ve 7 Haziran 2015 genel seçimlerinde yarışan AKP (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi), CHP (Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi) ve MHP'nin (Milliyetçi Hareket Partisi) aday belirleme yöntemleri analiz edilecektir. Bu partilerin kullandıkları aday belirleme yöntemleri katılım, rekabet ve temsil kavramları üzerinden sonuçları tartışılacaktır. Katılım kavramı, seçmenin kapsayıcılığı ve dışlayıcılığı üzerinden ele alınacaktır. Seçmenlerin kapsayıcılığı ve dışlayıcılığının rekabet ve temsil kavramları üzerindeki etkisi ölçülecektir. Rekabet kavramı, mevcut adaylara karşı yeni adayların kazanma oranı ile ve temsil kavramı ise kadın ve genç aday kazanma oranları ile ölçülecektir.

Candidate Selection Methods of the Turkish Political Parties in 2011 and 2015 General Elections

Abstract

This study aims to state the existent candidate selection methods of political parties in Turkey and analyze the results of these candidate selection methods. To attain this objective, candidate selection methods having used by AKP (Justice and Development Party), CHP (Republican People's Party), MHP (Nationalist Action Party) competed in the general election on June 12, 2011, and June 7, 2015, are going to be analyzed. Candidate selection methods and results of methods used by these parties are going to be discussed concerning concepts of participation, competition, and representation. The concept of participation is going to be considered on inclusiveness and exclusiveness of the selectorate. The impact of inclusiveness and exclusiveness of selectorates on competition and representation concepts will be measured. The concept of competition is going to be measured by winning indices of new candidates against incumbents. The concept of representation is going to be measured by winning indices of women and young candidates.
