In this regard, the Lausanne Peace Conference, which is a good example of international negotiations to support the argument of the work and which also determines the destiny of a nation, was selected as a case study. However, in order to examine this selected case study in an explanatory framework, was chosen Two-Level Games Model, which was developed by Robert Putnam based on the Rational Choice Theory. When the current studies on the Lausanne Peace Conference and the treaty signed at the end are examined, it can be seen that the conference and / or treaty are mostly addressed in terms of international law and political history. Therefore, unlike the current studies in the literature, the Armistice Period and the Lausanne Peace Conference are examined within the framework of the Putnam's Two-Level Games approach, which is a model of Rational Choice Theory in the field of International Politics. In this sense; this assessment of the results of the Lausanne Peace Conference, which was examined in a theoretical framework with the developments before; by making a contribution to the current studies in the literature, it proposes a scientific way for the society to formulate its judgment on the personalities of the period and the gains of the treaty. In addition, the conclusions of how to shape the preferences of the parties during the signing of the Lausanne Conference of the founding treaties of the Republic of Turkey, the theoretical framework used in the study is tried to be put forward with concrete reasons in line with the evidence obtained.
