Even though it is getting
weaker, there is still a common idea in Turkish politics that well-educated people support the
left-wing political parties and contrary,
under-educated people support the
right-wing/conservative parties. Although this idea may partially -or at
the end- be true the situation is more complicated than this.
In the Atlas of Turkish Values,
for example, the comparison of 1990 and 2011 data indicates that conservatism
has risen dramatically among university graduates. Therefore, it is necessary
to know the background of this process together with the populist and
ideological policies.
Hence, we should examine some
paradoxes of liberal democracy. So, the main research questions here are:
1. How are higher
education and politics intertwined between 1990 and today?
2. What are the
social and political effects of changing and specifically; on the voting
behavior of the university graduates among these two main political lines: National
Vision tradition and Republican political parties?
