Turkish Politics and the Military
Turkey's geographical position, between the Middle East and Europe and at the centre of the current upheavals in the USSR and the Balkans, has led to a reawakening of interest in its international standing.

Gizli Yargı
Gizli Yargı “..Bir kimsenin, herhangi bir suçtan dolayı “mahkûm” sayılabilmesi için, bu kimse hakkında Yargıtay aşamasından geçmiş “kesin hüküm” bulunması gerekir. Bir kimsenin, hakkında Yargıtay aşamasından geçerek kesinleşen bir yargı kararı olmadan “suçlu” sayılması olanaksızdır. Sanık, “mahkûm oluncaya kadar masum” sayılır. Anayasa tasarısının 37'nci maddesi de bu temel güvenceyi benimsemiştir…” “…Bir sanığa, hakkında “kesin mahkûmiyet hükmü” olmadan mahkûmiyetin gerektirdiği hukuksal sonuçları yüklemek, hukuk devleti kavramı ile bağdaşmaz. Hakkında hiçbir ceza kovuşturması olmaksızın, “idari” nite...
The Army and the Radical Left in Turkey
In 1960s Turkey, the armed forces and the radical leftist movement provided two very dynamic, but very different, political forces. However, somewhat surprisingly, the majority of radical leftists believed in the revolutionary potential of the armed forces in overthrowing the current regime and replacing it with a quasi-socialist one. This book considers the changing perspectives of the radical leftist movement towards the political role of the military in Turkey. Using a textual analysis of different leftist groups, including the Communist Party of Turkey, Ozgur Mutlu Ulus describes the development of the leftist movement in Turkey after the 1960 coup and explains why most leftists chose to encourage a military revolution, which they hoped would bring about the triumph of socialism in Turkey.
