N2  - Since the beginning of the twentieth century, the tendency of centralization in Turkish political system has played a significant role in all the problems related to politics, economics and culture. This study addresses the causes of the tendency of centralization in Turkish political system because centralized political mechanisms are the main obstacles to solve many problems such as actual and structural ones. Certainly, individuals should be treated as necessary agents in modern politics. Therefore, the place of individuals in a political system has a vital importance. As individuals construct their identities coordinately with other individuals, they behave coordinately with others in politics, as well. in a society where individuals connect with each other via state makes totalitarian regimes inevitable. In this regard, how individuals and communities will be provided with freedom, welfare and stabilization in political mechanisms is one of the most crucial issues of Turkish political system
