1970s in Turkish conservatism and Kubbealtı Academy magazine

In the process that started with the French Revolution, the age of ideologies began to occur, and conservatism had the opportunity to express itself in the face of modernity. Increasing the violence and influence of modernity has expanded the impact area of conservatism at the same rate. Especially England and France were the carriers of he first conservatism. The next conservatism is an ideology, a debate which lasted until the present and the past is not the point. Consequently, conservatism has been accepted as an ideology since the French Revolution, whether it is perceived as "loose" or an "attitude" to events. Turkish Conservatism, which developed in parallel with Turkish Modernization, started to emerge mainly with Tanzimat, but gained momentum with the declaration of the republic. It can be said that Turkish Conservatism is positioned in accordance with the notion of "center-environment and official-informal area" inherited from the Ottoman Empire in the historical process. At this point, Turkish Conservatives refrained from entering into a conflict with official history and found the opportunity to express themselves right next to the developing revolutions. It can be said that there was a sharp Kemalist interpretation that saw conservatism as reactionary. In addition, as Ziya GÖKALP has stated, the Turkish revolution has its own conservative vein. Thus, the Turkish Conservatives accounted for the revolutions that kept and did not, without going into a reckoning with the past, and they expressed sensitivity regarding the preservation of culture.
