要旨:
The aim of this thesis is to develop a number of theoretical ideas about the emergence
of the predominant party system in Turkey under the Justice and Development Party
(AKP) government from 2002 to 2015. A predominant party system emerges when a
party wins at least three elections in a row by more than a 10 percent margin and forms
the government alone. I argue that the expansion of clientelist networks under the AKP
government has twofold ramifications, which in turn have reproduced the cycle of
dominance. First, it strengthened voters’ partisan identification. Second, it changed
voters’ ideology such that they became less resistant to or even supportive of neoliberal
reforms. The conclusions are based on fieldwork in one of the poorest and most
densely populated districts of Istanbul, Bağcılar.
