Abstract

This study examines the change of the government system that has been discussed for many years in Turkey and the proposals of transition to the presidential system. A Referendum held in 2017 has confirmed the Republic of Turkey’s transition to a new system of government. With the presidential election held on 24 June, 2018, the transition to the new system has been made. A system called as "System of the Republic of Turkey". In this structure, President of Turkey is the head of government and the head of state who holds executive powers to issue executive decrees, appoint judges and heads of state institutions. Turkey's political system is based on a separation of powers. Executive power is exercised by the Council of Ministers. Legislative power is vested in the Grand National Assembly of Turkey. In addition, the Presidency has a executive assistant, presidency of administrative affairs, 4 office 9 committees. The number of ministries has been reduced from 25 to 16. The presidential government system puts an end to the use of executive authority by a collective body (parliament) and allows the exercise of executive power by a person who is elected directly by the people to serve for five consecutive years. The paper addresses crucial questions of how the relationship between the executive and the legislature will play out in the implementation of this new system, including how the legislative branch will take up the role created for it in this new period. In considering how democracy and the rule of law can be ensured under the new system.
