  Recep Tayyip Erdogan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
He is the leader of the Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi (AK Party, or Justice and Development Party).
In 1996, the Welfare Party was declared unconstitutional and was shut down on the grounds of threatening the secular nature of the state.
The Justice and Development Party, on the back of widespread discontent with the traditional parties' handling of the economy and the 1999 earthquake, took 34.3% of the vote in the 3 November 2002 parliamentary elections, and due to Turkey's system of allotting seats, won an overall majority in the Grand National Assembly.

 Political Rumblings Towards Turkish General Elections
A recent headline: Kemal Dervis is trying to bring the parties on the left under a roof headed by Erdal Inonu rather than joining the New Turkey Party -- a futile exercise that should never have been initiated.
Other parties are also looking at some form of alliance on the right and the left in order to pass the 10% threshold (parties that get less than 10% of the total votes nationwide cannot be represented in the Turkish Parliament).

The first ever split in Turkey's Islamist movement was formalised last week when young Islamists officially established their own party under the leadership of Tayyip Erdogan, the charismatic 45 year-old former mayor of Istanbul.
The full name of the new party is the Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi, (the Justice and Development Party), or the AK Partisi (AKP) for short.
In Turkish, 'AK' also means "white" or "clean", emphasising the party's determination to distance itself from the corruption and nepotism that have become endemic in Turkish politics.

 Turkey: post-Islamists in power
ABDULLAH Gül, Turkey’s prime minister since the Justice and Development party (Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi, AKP) swept to power in the elections of 3 November 2002, made his dilemma clear: "We’ve done all we can to avoid war on Iraq.
Even if the current decline of the centrist parties and the shift to the right of voters were to continue, the AKP might not be alone in filling the vacuum: last November Cem Ozan, a 42-year-old businessman, appeared from nowhere, and got surprising support for his far-right Youth party (Genc partisi).
The AKP has learned much from the fate of its Islamist forerunner, the Welfare party (Refah Partisi, RP), which governed Turkey under Necmettin Erbakan for a year until the army forced him to resign on 18 June 1997.

Recep Tayyip Erdoğan's Justice and Reconciliation Party (Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi, AKP) swept to victory in Turkey's parliamentary elections on November 3, 2002.
It had won just slightly over one-third of the vote but because only one other party—the center-left Republican People's Party (Cumhuriyetci Halk Partisi) managed to surpass the 10 percent threshold necessary to enter the Turkish Grand National Assembly—the AKP took 66 percent of the seats.

This is the culmination of a process of discussions between Turkey and the European Union that has been underway since 1963.
The Turkish government is dominated by a reformist Islamic party, the Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi (Justice & Development party, AKP) whose prime minister, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, achieved notoriety (and imprisonment) in 1998 for quoting, in a political speech, a poem which likened the minarets of his country’s mosques to bayonets and their domes to helmets.
But the past six years, two of them in office, have changed the political prospects of Erdogan, his party, and his country — and created for Europe the possibility that its Muslim population will increase from around 15 million in 2004 to over 85 million within a decade.

“Wohl aufgrund der Tatsache, dass die AKP (Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi – Partei für Gerech-tigkeit und Entwicklung) die einzige Partei war, welche noch nicht durch Misswirtschaft in Erscheinung getreten ist, und sie deshalb der Bevölkerung glaubwürdig erschien, entschied sich das türkische Volk anlässlich der Frühwahlen vom November 2002, der AKP sein Ver-trauen zu schenken.
Die pro-kurdische HADEP, welche seit mehreren Jahren mehrere wichtige Stadtverwaltun-gen in den kurdischen Provinzen verwaltet, hat sich aufgrund eines drohenden richterlichen Verbots in einer Koalition mit der sozialistischen EMEP (Emegin Partisi – Partei der Arbeit von Levent Tüzel) neu unter dem Namen DEHAP (Demokrat Halk Partisi – Demokratische Volkspartei von Mahmut Ihsan Özgen) konstituiert.
Sie konnte trotz ihrer Koalition mit der EMEP und einem weiterhin hohen Stimmenanteil in den kurdischen Provinzen und einer absoluten Stimmenmehrheit in 13 Provinzen des Ostens gesamthaft lediglich 6,22 % der Wählerstimmen auf sich vereinigen.
