Summary/Abstract: Nationalism is a universalized ideology since the French Revolution. Nationalism, which is an artificial design according to some approaches, is the spirit of the human community that has been taken place in culture since ancient times and established a connection with history according to some approaches. It passes through the mediation of many factors such as geography, language, religion, ethnicity, and the world of common meaning. It is rather difficult to identify a single descriptive criterion. The fact that has no substantive determination allows nationalism to fill its content with many different factors. In this study, theoretical approaches on nationalism are transferred by moving forward according to the classifications in the literature. Then, the position of the nationalism design in Turkey’s left ideological line among socialist approaches was examined. Behice Boran’s academic and political career and theoretical studies against the “Yön” and “MDD” movement, her position in the composition of the left movement and her theoretical struggle in the axis of national leftism debates are discussed. In the study, content analysis was applied from methodologically, books, articles, newspapers, magazine archives and interviews were interpreted within an analytical framework. In the second part, Behice Boran’s own works, statements, columns and secondary sources are examined within the framework of the problematic.
