Türk Kültüründe Hoşgörünün Temelleri

Abstract | Full Text

Turkish culture is based on tolerance, the product of the unique Islam-Turkish synthesis. This synthesis is crucial today for a more balanced perception of Islam because it opposes extremism and the terror that is associated with it. The Turkish-Ottoman Em-pire followed earlier traditions and set up a system based on tolerance towards its ethni-cally diverse subjects. It was due to this exceptional system assuring stability and freedom of conscience that the Empire was able to hold together people of different religions, languages and races, and to protect and preserve different cultures and languages. This tradition of tolerance and harmony lives on in modern Turkey. Although today there are bound to be certain misinterpretations of Islam, the majority of Turks firmly oppose intolerance and terrorism.
