Studies and observations show that these efforts have not sufficed in establishing a culture of human rights and democracy at different levels of the Turkish society. In this context, the purpose of this study was to examine Human Rights and Democracy Education (HRDE) work in Turkey from holistic point of view. It is hypothesized that the desired level of efficacy in HRDE efforts in Turkey has not been achieved due to a lack of coherence among the many aspects of these efforts.} }
