Abstract (EN)

History of Turkish journalism had completed a life of a century during the eras in wich the Yarin Newspaper was being published, but the developments often took the journalism to the starting point.Like the other developments, the first newspaper was published under the influence of the West. Turkish society started to meet the first press media wich on the one hand contributed to accommodating the innovations and on the other hand created public opinion.As the press-media developed, the regulations regarding the press were made. While some legal regulations were created in favor of freedom of press, sometimes there were some cencorship and bans.Turkish press-media entered the period of National Independence War with the Press Law dated 1909 as a principle regulation. During this period press-media were separated into two. Some supported the national independence movement, whereas the others opposed it. We can also separate the Turkish press-media after the declarition of the Turkish Republic into two: Ankara and Istanbul press, wich can be called pro-goverment and oppositional press. With the `Takrir-i Sükûn? Law, dated 1925, the Turkish press-media was controlled heavily. Nevertheless, oppositional voices started to increase after few years.Oppositional press-media was formed during the period of `Serbest Cumhuriyet Fırkası? in wich multi-party political life was experienced for the second time in Republican Turkey. With the new press law, dated 1931, oppositional voices in press-media were supressed. This situation continued until 1946.As a result of the new balances wich were formed after the end of the WWII, the different voices started to increase again.
