Cuntalar, muhtıralar, darbeler, post
modern darbeler ve sivil darbeler; milli iradeyi yok sayan, Türkiye’nin kurulduğu
günden bu yana defalarca tanık olduğumuz kanlı, yaralayıcı, insan hak ve
özgürlüklerini kısıtlayıcı bir özelliğe sahip olan; sosyal, siyasal veya askeri
organizasyon niteliğinde olan eylemler bütünü olarak tanımlanabilir. Bununla
birlikte bireylerin sosyolojik tecrübeleri, edinimleri “demokrasiler,
demokratik olmayan rejimlerden daha az zalimdirler” görüşüne rağmen bireyleri,
en ideal düzenin demokratik bir düzen olduğu sonucuna ulaştırmaktadır. Peki,
zorbalığı engelleme, temel hak ve özgürlükleri koruma, bireyin kendinin ve
yakınlarının geleceğini tayin etme, sosyal-siyasal eşitlik sağlama, bireylerin
yaşamları boyunca hak ve özgürlüklerini kanun ve hukuk yolu ile garanti altına
almayı vaat eden düşüncelerin eseri olarak doğan “demokratik bir düzen”
üzerinden demokrasi söylemi günlük hayatımızda ya da eğitim hayatımızda nasıl
bir yer edinmektedir? Ya da demokrasi hususunu tartışmak ancak darbe veya cunta
girişimi dönemlerinde mi anlamlı olmaktadır? Eğitim vasıtası ile içerisinde
farklı noksanlıkları barındırsa da özünde ideal bir amaç taşıyan demokrasinin
kazanımları yeni nesillere özellikle yükseköğretimde eğitim gören genç
bireylere aktarılmakta mıdır?
Juntas,
memorandums, coups, post modern coups and civilian coups can be defined as
overall actions have the characteristics of social, political and military
organizations; which are bloody, hurtful, restrictor the individual rights and
freedoms; we have experienced many times since Turkey was established, ignore
the national will. Besides, the sociological achievements, experiences of
individuals bring them to the ‘most ideal order is the democratic order’
solution in spite of the point of view ‘democracies are less tyrant than the
regimes antidemocratic’. Then, such a seat the democracy discourse in our daily
live’s and education win through ‘a democratic order’ born as work of thoughts
promise for preventing the tyranny, protecting fundamental rights and freedoms,
constituting the future of individual and his relatives, providing social-political equality, ensuring
their rights and freedoms by remedy? Or discussing the subject of democracy
being meaningful in only the coup or attempting junta periods? Are the gains of
democracy that have an ideal mission in itself even keeping different
deficiencies being transferred to new generations, especially young individuals
study in higher education via schooling?
The purpose of the
study is to research how often the ‘democracy’ question is mentioned in studies
prepared as graduate thesis in Turkey. The study matters by three aspects.
Firstly, to determine the mentioning frequency of democracy term in graduate
thesis by individuals study in higher education; to determine if the studies
about ‘democracy’ multiplied or not after the 1980 coup via graduate thesis;
and it is important in terms of presenting information to people who will study
on democracy in the later years. Moreover this study matters in terms of
willing to see the changing situation of graduate thesis democracy-themed in
regard to social gender, years and universities and to determine which
disciplines the democracy is studied in. This study is prepared by a
descriptive research method and document analysis technique.
