Bu çalışmamızda demokrasilerde devlet başkanlığı makamında görev süresi ve dönem sınırını uzatmaya yönelik muhtelif politik manipülasyonları incelemeyi amaçlıyoruz. Anayasada düzenlenen görev süresi sınırından kaçınmak isteyen devlet başkanlarının bu tercihlerini anayasal kuralı değiştirme, yeni bir anayasa hazırlama, yüksek yargı kararları ile dönem sınırını esnetme ya da kaldırma gibi kurumsal yöntemlere başvurarak elde etmeye çalıştıkları görülmektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler
