Özet

Problem Statement: The Constitutions are the main sources of legality for democratic societies. The 1961 and 1982 Constitutions have dominated the last fifty years of Turkey. In this regard, it is essential to examine and comment academically on the way these Constitutions and their amendments address the rights of education, freedom of thought and faith in light of the relationship between political and educational systems. It is also important in terms of academically contributing the current constitution polemics.
