Kadının temsili konusu özellikle 2000’li yıllarda akademik literatürde yoğun olarak tartışılmaya başlanmıştır. Kavramsal tartışmalar bu terimin betimsel ve asli gibi farklı boyutları olduğunu göstermekle beraber ve teorik tartışmalar sıklıkla bu boyutların birbirleri arasındaki ilişki üzerinde yoğunlaşır. Kadın çıkarlarının temsili ise bu boyutlardan biri olmakla birlikte; ulusal, yerel veya uluslararası gibi farklı düzeylerde gözlemlenebilir. Dahası, temsil, parlamento üyeleri, kadın STK'ları, femokratlar veya kadınların politika mekanizmaları gibi farklı aktörler ve kurumlar tarafından da yapılabilir. Bu çalışma, kadınların Türkiye’de temsilini iki düzeyde analiz etmektedir. İlk olarak, kadın STK'ların üyelerinin, hükümetlerin ve siyasi partilerin temsil politikalarına yönelik tutumları sorgulanacaktır. İkinci olarak, bu çalışma, kadın STK’ları üyelerinin, kadınların çıkarlarının farklı kamu kurumları, kadınların politika mekanizmaları ve siyasi partiler tarafından ne kadar iyi temsil edildiğine ilişkin algısına odaklanacaktır. Bu araştırma, Kasım 2017 ve Şubat 2018 tarihleri arasında, Türkiye'nin en büyük iki şehri olan Ankara ve İstanbul'daki kadın derneklerine üye olan 735 kadını içeren bir anket çalışmasına dayanmaktadır. Bu iki kentteki kadın STK'larının hepsi ile iletişime geçilerek çalışmaya katılmayı kabul eden bütün derneklerin temsili bir örneklemini yansıtan 151 kadın derneği bu araştırmaya dâhil edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler nicel yöntem kullanılarak analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmanın sonuçları kadın STK’ları üyelerinin devlet aktörleri ve kurumlarının kadınları temsili için yüksek düzeyde memnuniyet düzeyine sahip olmadığını göstermektedir.

The issue of women's representation started to be discussed intensely in the academic literature, especially in the 2000s. Conceptual discussions demonstrate that this term has different dimensions such as descriptive and substantive representations, and theoretical discussions often focus on the relationship between these dimensions. Besides representation of women's interests is one of these dimensions, it can be observed in different levels such as national, subnational or cross-national. Moreover, representation can be hold by different agencies, actors, institutions or organizations such as members of parliament, women’s NGOs, femocrats or women’s policy machineries. This study analyses representation of women’s interests in Turkey in two levels. First of all, women’s NGO members’ attitudes on representation policies of governments and political parties will be questioned. Secondly this study will focus on the perception of women’s NGO members on how well women’s interests are represented by different public institutions, women’s policy machineries and political parties. For the aims of this study, between November 2017 and February 2018 a survey was run with 735 women who are members of women’s associations from Ankara and Istanbul, two biggest cities of Turkey. 151 women’s associations were included in this research that reflects a representative sample of women’s NGOs in those two cities. The results of this research suggest that members of women’s NGOs does not have high levels satisfaction with representation of women’s interests by government actors and institutions
