dc.description.abstractPrint media impacts how information, points of view and considerations change over time in debates and deliberations in a public platform. This paper examines religious and secular actors’ beliefs and values in contemporary Turkey with respect to questions of pluralism and democracy; questions that seem critical for Turkey’s democratization in its current stage. It provides in-depth analysis of many of the factors that influence public opinion and beliefs. Through content analysis, it focuses on elite opinions and discourse as represented by the media. The evidence suggests that religious and secular populations have made significant advances toward adopting democracy.en
