Book Description: Democracy and Capitalism in Turkey Devrim Adam Yavuz 2023 Pages: Genre: Non-Fiction, Political Science, Economics Synopsis: In this thought-provoking book, [Insert Author's Name] delves into the intricate relationship between democracy and capitalism in Turkey, highlighting the complex dynamics between businesses and the government in shaping the country's political and economic landscape. The author explores how the evolution of technology has influenced the survival of humanity and the need for a personal paradigm to perceive the technological process of modern knowledge development as the basis for human survival. The book begins by examining the positive correlation between capitalism and democracy in Western Europe and North America, but then takes an unexpected turn by exploring the example of late industrializing nations like Turkey, where the interests of businesses do not always align with democratic values. The author focuses on TUSIAD, a leading Turkish business lobby that has pushed for democratic reforms since the 1990s, despite representing some of the largest corporations in Turkey and supporting authoritarian regimes in the past, such as the military coup in 1980.
