dc.description.abstractThis chapter aims to illustrate how cultural elements influence Justice and Development Party's political discourse in Turkey, the driving force of its politicians' speech. The JDP government raises concerns on undercutting inclusive institutions and undermining democratic values, but still remains the most influential actor in Turkish politics. This study focuses on President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's public speeches, populist and constructed through the center-periphery dichotomy, and it emphasizes respect for authority, modernization, nationalism, religion and secularism, as Turkey's prominent cultural themes. To address the masses, the party revised its political-Islamist discourse that had reflected a subculture, to accord with mainstream cultural values-prioritizing development, integration with the world, and democracy. Government policies, including the ones that carry the risk of drifting the state towards authoritarianism, are introduced as liberating actions based on cultural values, and framed as manifestations and triumphs of the periphery's masses. © The Editor(s) (if applicable) and The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2021, corrected publication 2021.
