Tek parti dönemi cami kapatma/satma uygulamaları

This thesis is about the closures and sales of mosques under the single party regime in Turkey and the main problem of the thesis is how these applications can be located within the perceptions of power regarding the mosques.In the idea of classification of mosques which has a continuity from Empire to nation-state and has been aimed to increase wages and improve living conditions of officers of the mosques, there had been a rupture in 1927. Following this rupture, the classification would be used by the power of the single party as a tool to ensure that mosques were on the bench and closed.Although the sale of mosques which were closed had begun in 1927, its legal frame was determined in 1935 by two laws. It was after the implementation of these two laws, the power of single party had completed the infrastructure of the legal frame for the applications of closures and sales of mosques.
