Abstract
This thesis analyzes patrimonial characteristics of Turkish public bureaucracy in the era between 1983-1993. Patrimonial taints within the structure of public bureaucracy will be elucidated from a diachronic perspective.

The study shall exclusively cover major policy changes targeting a societal change by New Right policies and transaction between New Right policies and transformation of bureaucracy. It shall also assert that patrimonial figures were revitalized by the New Right Policies’ applications.
