In other words, the "left nationalism" of Kemalism was inspired by German "state socialism".

'''Kemalism''', also called '''Ataturkism''', is a nationalist, civically variable, secular and culturally progressive ideology that occupies a moderate and right position in the authoritarian left quadrant, and is the ideology of [[File:Ataturk.png]] Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. However, although Atatürk wanted an interpretation of Kemalism in his own time, he did not write a doctrine for this ideology. Modern day Kemalism has three main factions: Center-left (social-democratic), conservative and liberal Kemalism. All three factions belongs an electoral alliance called the [[File:NeoKemalism.png]] ‘Nation Alliance’ nowadays to challenge [[File:Erdoğanism.png]] [[Neo-Ottomanism|Erdogan’s government]]. The support of historical variants such as Fascist Kemalism and Socialist Kemalism has now mostly diminished.
Line 325 ⟶ 323:
Shortly after Turkey was proclaimed as a republic, Ataturk endorsed the policy of peace at home, peace in the world, and restored its relationship with Britain and Greece. The New Turkish Republic amended all unequal tariff treaties that the Ottoman Empire had with foreign powers and forged a strong alliance with the USSR as both countries signed the friendship pact, the Treaty of Moscow in 1921, and a non-aggression pact in 1925. It also regained control of the Turkish Straits by 1936 with the Montreux Convention, which saw Turkey fully regaining its sovereignty from foreign imperialist powers. Kemalist Turkey also formed the non-aggression [[w:Saddabad Pact|Saddabdad Pact]] with its neighbors, including [[File:RezaShah.png]] [[Social Authoritarianism|Reza Shah’s Iran]], [[File:ZahirShah.png]] [[Constitutional Monarchism|Mohammad Zahir Shah’s Afghanistan]], and Iraq to promote regional peace and friendly cooperations. It also formed the [[w:Balkan Pact|Balkan Pact]] with Yugoslavia, Greece, and Romania to resist the imperialist expansionist ambitions of [[File:Mussolini.png]] [[Fascism|Fascist Italy]] and Tsarist Bulgaria.
 
Ataturk was also credited for his transformational change in Turkish agriculture and ecological development. The Kemalist government planned 4 million trees, modernized the Turkish agricultural mechanism, implemented flood controls, opened schools in rural areas with rural institutions such as agricultural banks, and implemented [[File:LandReform.png]] land reform that removed heavy taxes on peasants of the Ottoman era. He was described as the “Father of Turkish Agriculture.”<ref name=":Derya" /><ref>[https://businessturkeytoday.com/factories-established-by-great-ataturk-founder-of-turkey-in-first-15-years-of-republic.html ''"Factories established by Great Ataturk, founder of Turkey, in first 15 years of the republic"''], BusinessTurkeyToday.</ref> Ataturk also massively boomed the Turkish economy with heavy industrial production increased by 150% and GDP capita rose from 800 USD to around 2000 USD by late 1930s, on par with Japan. It also quickly industrialized Turkey in a rapid time frame.<ref>[https://www.researchgate.net/figure/Turkish-GDP-per-capita-and-GDP-growth-1923-1990-Source-Compiled-and-drawn-based-on_fig1_256014311 ''"Turkish GDP-per-capita and GDP growth 1923-1990"''], ReserachGate.</ref> Additionally, the labor participation rate of the Kemalist single-parry period was as high as 70%. The participation rate continued to decline after the democratization of Turkey due to the backlash of conservative norms in the Turkish society.<ref>[https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0277539513000721], ScienceDirect.com.</ref> Ataturk also doubled the Turkish literacy rate to 22.4% before he died. After he died, his successor Inonu more than tripled the literacy rate to 33% from a mere 10% in 1923. The number of studentstudents attending middle schools and high schools have been multiplied by 12 times and 17.5 times, respectively.
 
After Ataturk’s death, the new Turkish president [[File:IsmetInonu.png]] Ismet Inonu adopted a more statist economy and enforced laicist policies by shutting down thousands of Mosques, as well as implementing a wealthy tax that targeted wealthy minorities such as Armenians, Jews, and Greeks. The economic failure of Inonu and the consequences of WW2 on Turkish trade ended the economic boom of the Ataturk era and caused a severe recession in the Turkish economy. Turkey stayed neutral in WW2 and strongly resisted the push of far-right figures like [[File:NihalAtsiz.png]] [[Ultranationalism|Nihal Atsiz]] and [[File:MHP.png]] [[Turkish Idealism|Alparslan Turkes]] to declare war on the USSR to take Azerbaijan from the Soviet Union. In the 1940s, the [[w:Turkish straits crisis|Turkish Straits Crisis]] happened as the [[File:Stalin.png]] [[Marxism-Leninism|Stalinist USSR]] attempted to imperialize Turkish maritime borders by forcing Turkey to accept a deal with the military threat. This attempt was, however, strongly resisted by Turkey with the support of the [[File:Truman.png]] [[Neoconservatism|Truman Administration]]. This caused the two decades of alliance between Turkey and the USSR to fall apart, which saw Turkey’s eventual NATO admission in 1952, shortly after the end of the [[File:UniParti.png]] [[Particracy|CHP One-party state]] and [[File:DemocratParty.png]] [[Conservative Liberalism|Adnan Menderes’s Democrat Party came to power]].

===[[File:SocKemal.png]] Socialist Kemalism===
In line with Atatürk's request and permission, the communists on trial in 1927, published a new magazine. The name of the magazine was "[[w:Kadro|Kadro]]. Atatürk also made a statement to this magazine. [[File:MLKemal.png]] [[w:Şevket_Süreyya_Aydemir|Şevket Süreyya Aydemir]] is the founder of this ideology. However, the publishers of the magazine made a socialist-Kemalist discourse, not being a Marxist due to their ideological orientation. Ultimately, the magazine's lead author was appointed ambassador. For this reason, Kadro magazine dissolved itself. In short, they were "socialist-Kemalist".
 
Those who publish the magazine are called "Kadroists (Kadrocular)."
Line 494 ⟶ 492:
The ideology of September 12 is based on three pillars:
 
[[File:AtaturkIslamokemalism.png]] [[Kemalism]] <ref>Kenan Evren said: “In these times, many people approach you and want to instill ideologies with an "-ism extension". We know these very well. If it is necessary to instill an ideology with an "-ism extension", there is the '''Kemalism ideology of the Great Leader Atatürk. Adopt it.'''
 
Related article:https://dergipark.org.tr/en/download/article-file/2241346</ref>, [[File:IslamNatTurkIslamSyn.png]][[Religious Nationalism|Turkish-Islamic Synthesis]]<ref>(...) the historical discourse of the synthesisists is based on assumptions that form the underlying tension of the whole story; Some innovations introduced by Ibrahim Kafesoglu, such as the similarities between the religion of the ancient Turks and Islam, are used as indisputable facts to conclude that the Turks were predestined to this path. Regarding the use of Kemalist contributions to historiography, they completely integrated the geographical assumption developed during the Ataturk period, which claimed that everything coming from Central Asia was Turkish, and the Asian and ethnic view of history with their own views, and at the same time they adopted a very linear approach to the history of the Turks. They accepted that there was an unbroken continuity from the Asian Huns to the Republic. By perverting the Kemalist assumption that Turks come from a superior origin for the benefit of their own ideology, they explained how the first Muslim-Turkish states introduced new concepts to Islam, especially the concept of state organization. Likewise, they adopted Kemalist claims about the eternal tolerance of Turks, their sense of justice, and the equality of men and women, which are claimed to exist in Turkish societies, for the sake of Turkish-Islamic synthesis. These claims were used to characterize an Islam with a Turkish flavor as opposed to an Arab Islam that was assumed to be more fanatical. This means that there is a '''"Kemalist-Islamic synthesis"''' in many respects, at least in historical discourse; This understanding was gradually settled into the textbooks in an uninterrupted process and without the need to deny the history theses of 1931-1932.
 
In summary, it can be said that school history discourse is no longer secular. But this is not a religious discourse; In the narration of the history of the Turkish nation, the history of Islam, not its dogma, was used. Belonging to Islam gives meaning to Turkishness, but it does not lead to a loss of identity. This basic idea is spreading through schools and partly through mosques both in Turkey and in Europe, where it gains more meaning due to immigration.
