Özet

This article aims to demonstrate the tension inherent within the Turkish opposition between those favoring technocratic anti-populism and/or pragmatic politics and those calling for a passionate and resolute anti-AKP platform seeking revenge. These competing inclinations offer alternate anti-populist platforms and ‘styles.’ The article asks whehter opposition to a populist regime inherently generates an anti-populist platform that ideologically confronts it. The article examines three contenders to President Erdoğan as representatives of three alternative anti-populist styles. It also reflects on the debates among various public intellectuals around the ways to electorally defeat populism.

Until 2010, the CHP was headed by Deniz Baykal, who was supported by the party’s Kemalist establishment. Adhering to the nationalist-statist creed, Baykal had been resolute in his hostility toward the sectarian and ethnic networks active within the party as well as their left-leaning identity politics. As Ciddi and Esen observed, ‘Baykal did not use his … opportunity to rebuild the CHP into a mass organization that was able to match the AKP electoral machine.’ On the contrary, ‘Baykal’s CHP continued to wage the cultural war of the 1990s [which] restricted the party’s support to a minority group … whereas the AKP, no doubt taking advantage of its access to state resources, became a catch-all party.’
