In English

In Hybride

The IFEA's Observatory of Turkish Politics (OVIPOT) is pleased to invite you to the conference: "A New Political Landscape? Understanding Turkey's 2024 Local Elections", with Berk Esen (Associate Professor, Sabancı University) & Cuma Çiçek (Associate Researcher, IFEA).
 
The outcomes of the municipal elections held on March 31st have taken all observers of Turkish politics by surprise. This conference intends to delve into the insights gained from this significant electoral upheaval, marked by the AKP experiencing a nationwide loss in the majority of votes for the first time, and the CHP securing its most substantial victory since 1977.

How should we interpret these results, especially in light of the ruling party's significant triumph in the 2023 elections? Do these outcomes signify a shift in Turkey's electoral geography? What are the implications for the various political parties and coalitions?

This hybrid conference will be held in English at IFEA, April 18th, 2024, at 18.00.
