KIRGIZ SİYASİ HAYATINDA AYATINDA AŞİRETÇİLİK VE KLAN SİYASETİ

Orta Asya geneline baktığımızda sosyal yapının, kendini ne etnik grupla ne bir siyasi partiyle ne de hükümetle ya da muhalefetle değil daha çok bağlı bulunduğu aşiretle tanımlayan ve en yüksek aidiyet hissi de bu alanda görülen geniş gruplardan oluştuğu görülür. Bu gruplar bölgenin sosyolojik gerçekliğidir ve bu en temel gerçeklik Kırgızistan özelinde hayatın pek çok alanında kendini hissettirir. Bu çalışmada ise aşiretçiliğin ve onun politik hayattaki yansıması olan klan siyasetinin Kırgız siyasi yaşamı üzerindeki etkinliği ortaya konmaya çalışılacaktır.

Tribalism and Clan Politics in Kyrgyz Political Life

When we analyze Central Asia in general, it becomes clear that Central Asian social structure is made up with large units who rather identify themselves with a specific tribe, to which they have the main sense of belonging, but not with an ethnic group, a political party, government or opposition. These units are the sociological reality of the region and this reality functions in different parts of life in Kyrgyz case. In this paper the impact of tribalism and clan politics on the Kyrgyz political life is tried to be put forward.
