Kemalism as an ideology was enshrined more deeply after Ataturk's death, and thereafter was preserved largely unchanged by a Westernized elite with a paternalist outlook. Adherents of the 28 February policies and high ranking military members in charge during the following period adopted a style of action reminiscent of radical Kemalist identity and the leftist Kemalism of the 1970s, and they became increasingly a part of daily political life. Third, it will involve extending the domestic institutions for spreading the laic ideas of Kemalism to the outside world and subsidizing them heavily. |
