Yıl 2021, Sayı: 1, 49 - 61, 01.07.2021

Öz

Margaret Thatcher 13 Ekim 1925 tarihinde Beatrice ve Alfred Roberts çiftinin ikinci çocuğu (Margaret Hilda Roberts) olarak dünyaya gelmiştir. Babası Alfred ve annesi Beatrice' in son derece koyu Metodist olmalarından dolayı çocukluğu Metodizm Kilisesi etrafında geçmiştir. Oldukça başarılı bir öğrenci olan Margaret 1947 senesinde onur derecesi ile Oxford Üniversitesi Kimya bölümünden mezun olmuştur. 1951 senesinde Denis Thatcher ile evlenmiştir ve bu evlilikten ikiz çocuğu olmuştur. 1959 senesinde Finchley' in Muhafazakâr milletvekili seçilmiş ve parlamentoya girmiştir. 1975 senesinde Muhafazakâr Parti lideri olmuştur. Margaret Thatcher, ataerkil bir toplumda, kadınların siyasi veya sosyal olarak ön plana çıkmasının çok zor olduğu bir dönemde, tüm engellere rağmen pes etmemiş ve 1979 senesinde Britanya'nın ilk kadın Başbakanı olmayı başarmıştır. Uyguladığı politikalardan dolayı çok fazla destekçisi olmasına karşın bir o kadar da nefret edeni bulunmaktaydı. Thatcher siyasi hayatı boyunca çeşitli lakaplar almıştır. Bunlardan en bilinenleri, ''süt hırsızı'' ve ''demir leydi'' olmuştur. Margaret Thatcher üç dönem boyunca iktidarı elinde tutmayı başararak İngiltere'nin en uzun süre görev yapan başbakanı olmuştur. Uluslararası bir etkinlik kazanan Margaret Thatcher, tüm dünyanın dikkatini çekmeyi başarmıştır. Bu makalede, yirminci yüzyılın bu önemli siyasi figürünün hayatının erken dönemini, aile yaşantısını, yetiştirilme tarzını, eğitim hayatını, siyasete girişini, başbakanlığa yükselişini ve Falkland Savaşında nasıl bir yol izlediğini ortaya koymak amaçlanmaktadır. Thatcher' ın politikaları ışığında ''Thatcherizm'' kavramına odaklanılmaktadır.

Margaret Thatcher was born on October 13, 1925, as the second child of Beatrice and Alfred Roberts couple (Margaret Hilda Roberts). Her childhood passed around the Methodism church, as her father Alfred and his mother Beatrice were extremely strict Methodists. Margaret who was a pretty successful student graduated from Oxford University Department Chemistry in 1947 with an honorary degree. She married Denis Thatcher in 1951 and had twins from this marriage. In 1959 Finchley was elected as conservative deputy and entered the parliament. He became the leader of the Conservative Party in 1975. Despite all obstacles, Margaret Thatcher did not give up and successfully became Britain's first female Prime Minister in 1979 at a time when it was very difficult for women to come to the fore politically or socially in a patriarchal society. She also had so many haters, although she had a lot of supporters due to the policies she implemented. Thatcher has gotten various nicknames throughout her political life. The best known of her nicknames were the "milk thief" and "iron lady". Margaret Thatcher succeeded in holding the power for three terms, becoming Britain's longest-serving prime minister.

It focuses on the concept of "Thatcherism" in the light of Thatcher's policies.
