ABSTRACT

This study explores the differences in system support between the ethnic majority and ethnic minority populations in Turkey and Israel, taking into account three specific dimensions of system support: national identity, evaluation of democracy, and institutional trust. A comparison of the gaps in these dimensions is conducted using surveys. The findings show that, in both countries, the majority tends to show higher levels of system support than the minority. Among the Turkish Kurdish minority, lower levels of system support can be found across all the dimensions examined, while among the Palestinian citizens of Israel minority, the gaps are bigger in the cultural aspect of national identity but much smaller in the evaluation of democracy and institutional trust. These findings are discussed in light of both the differences between the two regimes and their dissimilar strategies for addressing ethno-national divisions and the theoretical implications of examining the multidimensionality of system support.

摘要

本研究探讨了土耳其和以色列的多数族裔和少数族裔人口在系统支持方面的差异，同时考虑了系统支持的三个具体维度：民族认同、民主评估和制度信任。使用调查对这些方面的差距进行了比较。调查结果表明，在这两个国家中，大多数人往往比少数人表现出更高水平的系统支持。在土耳其库尔德少数民族中，在所有考察的维度上都可以发现较低水平的制度支持，而在以色列少数民族的巴勒斯坦公民中，民族认同的文化方面差距更大，但在民主和制度评价方面的差距要小得多。相信。
