Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper examines if Tansu filler, the first woman prime minister in Turkey, made a difference in how political power was used in that country. Even though women leaders have signaled change, they have also been known to perpetuate the status quo. Tansu (filler has perpetuated the status quo with her opportunistic quest for power and dismissal of women's issues when she was in office; yet, she has also expanded the framework within which political authority could be culturally coded, because she was a new role model of a woman politician with clout who did not deny her feminity. She also brought a female constituency to the foreground of electoral discourse prior to the 1995 elections.
