Abstract (EN)

The aim of this study is to reveal the political and social transformation in the United Kingdom since the 1929 World Economic Depression. In this study, historical and descriptive research methods were used. The World Economic Depression of 1929 emerged as a result of the failure of the classical liberal economy, followed by the Second World War. The Keynesian economic model was applied in the post-war period in the United Kingdom, which has shaped global developments with its developed state structure, economy and democracy. Until 1979, developments in British politics within the framework of the prevailing economic model are remarkable. Then the counter-neoliberal revolution and the struggle against the welfare state institutions were initiated, which had consequences for the UK's political and social structure. In addition, the constitutional order shaped by the process that started with Magna Carta Libertatum presents ideas in terms of political and social transformation. In this context, in the first part of the study; Social and economic structure in the United Kingdom has been examined. In the second part; The political structure of the United Kingdom has been put forward. In the third section; In the light of Keynesian policies and the welfare state adopted since the Great Depression, the United Kingdom was examined in economic and political terms. In the fourth section; The transformation in the United Kingdom has been demonstrated. Key Words: Political Culture, Political Structure, 1929 World Economic Depression, Keynesian and Neoliberal Policies.
