| description | This study aims to determine how education unions that have the
most members in Turkey include the aims and activities in their statutes in
terms of the functions of the unions. Furthermore, it aims to identify how
the determined purposes and activities are distributed according to unions
and the functions of the unions. The study is a qualitative research in the
type of document analysis. Purpose and functions of the unions; their
perspectives on politics and democracy, labour relations, education and
development have been studies on the dimensions of socio-economic and
socio-psychological functions. In the study, 27 evaluators selected from
four groups as academicians, union managers, education administrators,
and teachers were asked to classify items related to goals and activities in
five categories. Based on the evaluators’ classification, the Fleiss Kappa
coefficient was found. At this stage, it was observed that the Fleiss Kappa
value indicated a significant agreement. In the study, the constitutions of
the four education unions with the highest number of members were
examined in five dimensions. The data were analysed using the five-stage
content analysis method. As a result, it is possible to suggest that education
unionism in Turkey has an organisational mentality that emphasises social
and political issues. It is concluded that it is necessary to conduct qualitative
studies which aim to determine the purposes of unions, their determined
goals, and which mission they have undertaken. |
