ABSTRACT
Secularism during the AKP rule in Turkey is a complex phenomenon. It leads
to difficulties in defining the relationship between state/politics and religion in
this country. The article is an attempt to identify the type of secularism we can
observe nowadays in Turkey and to propose a slightly new conceptual approach.
It is possible thanks to the analysis of the functioning of the secular system in
this state in the past and nowadays as well as answering the questions: How is
the Turkish secularism changing? Is the process of change linear? Should we talk
about secularism or rather post-secularism in Turkey taking into consideration the
process called by some scholars the “subtle Islamization”?
