These analyses aim to examine the turning points in Turkey's political history and the impact of these processes on society from a broad perspective.

Starting from the developments in the last period of the Ottoman Empire, the First and Second Constitutional Monarchy periods are analyzed comprehensively.

In the continuation of the course, Turkey's transition to multi-party life, the military coups, the adoption of new constitutions, the elections held during these periods and the political parties established are also evaluated in detail.
