THE PLACE OF ENVIRONMENT IN ELECTIONS DECLARATIONS: THE EXAMPLE OF 24 JUNE 2018 GENERAL PARLIEMENTARY ELECTION

Summary/Abstract: The main focus of this research to determine how much space is allocated to the environment issue, which codes and themes are used under the environment heading and the usage rates of the relevant codes and themes in the electional declarations, which have been prepared by the political parties in Turkey for June 24, 2018 General Parliamentary Election, both in the environmental sections and in the general text. The data used in the research were obtained by document analysis method and analyzed using content analysis. As a result of the analysis of the data, it is seen that AK Parti uses the water code, CHP, MHP and İYİ Parti energy code and HDP's nature code in the election declaration. When the election declarations of the five political parties are examined, it is understood that the ecosystem is the most common theme in the election declarations of AK Parti, CHP, HDP and İYİ Parti. The declaration using the most environmental codes is the election declaration of the AK Parti with 1159. As a result of the research, it was determined that the parties kept the environment title in the background in their declarations in terms of both the number of pages, the order of finding the title and the visual usage preferences compared to the subjects such as economy, domestic and foreign politics. When the codes in the declarations are examined, it is seen that no party uses biosecurity, ecosystem management, environmental law and habitat codes. Similarly, water / air / soil / image / noise pollution codes, which are directly related to environmental issues, were not used sufficiently in declarations. Therefore, it can be said that there are some problems in the approaches of these political parties to the environment subject.
