Abstract
The most important elements making up the political culture are; religion and belief systems. They play an important role in an emerging political culture. That's why; the effect of societies and individuals on their relations with politics makes religion and belief systems an area of study. In this context, in the Islamic world, which is one of the most important and effective systems of belief in the world, especially the relation of religion and politics has been constantly debated. The role and impacts of religion in politics, governance and state is located within these debates. When we look at Turkey, there are many important and influential studies on the relationship between religion and politics. Because Islam is adopted by a very large part of the society, the influence of religion in the relations and preferences of social groups and individuals in politics make these studies important. Especially the paradigm, which has emerged as a Sunni school and become an attitude, behavior and choice against the political one, is important at this point. In particular, it is an important area of study considering the impact of the Turkish-Islamic empires, even today. In this context; in this study, the effects of the Sunni paradigm on Turkish governance, politics and state traditions will be discussed. The main aim of this study is to reveal Sunni political culture and its effects on Turkish state tradition.
