Summary: | With Law No. 6771 adopted in Turkey in 2017, the Parliamentary Government System,
which had been in force for a long time, was replaced by the Presidential Government System. This
change in the government system has caused significant changes in both the structuring and the
functioning of the Turkish Public Administration. It is extremely clear that the change in the
government system, which has significant impacts on the capital organization of the central
administration, has also affected other institutions in close contact with the capital organization. The
National Security Council, which is among the subsidiary institutions of the central administration,
can be said to be one of the institutions affected by the change in the government system. However,
there are few studies on this subject in the literature. For this reason, the subject of this study is the
effects of the Presidential government system on the National Security Council. This study aims to
analyze in detail the changes that have taken place in both the structure and functioning of the
National Security Council with the transition from the parliamentary government system to the
Presidential government system. In the study, an answer is sought to the question of what changes
have taken place in the members, meetings, decisions, and organization of the general secretariat of
the NSC.
