The 2017 referendum marked a transition from an already incongruous parliamentary system to rampant presidentialism and created more conflicts rather than defusing them. Given the extraordinary conditions under which the referendum was held, and the limited time allowed for discussion of its possible ramifications, any effort to analyze the eve and aftermath of the referendum provoked more questions than answers. Why was the referendum held in 2017, although the governing party had advocated for a new constitution and transition to a presidential system since it came to power in 2002? What was the attitude of the voters towards the presidential system? How did popular support change or did it in fact change during the referendum campaign? The analysis of these questions presented here relies on extant research to inventory what we really know and do not know about the most recent Turkish referendum and why these unanswered questions might have critical consequences.

公投的隐晦之处:土耳其 2017 年宪法修正案

2017 年的公投标志着从已经不协调的议会制向猖獗的总统制过渡,并制造了更多的冲突,而不是化解它们。鉴于举行公投的特殊条件,以及讨论其可能后果的有限时间,任何分析公投前夕和后果的努力都会引发更多的问题而不是答案。为什么要在2017年举行公投,尽管执政党自 2002 年上台以来一直主张制定新宪法并过渡到总统制?选民对总统制的态度是什么?全民支持在公投期间发生了怎样的变化,或者实际上发生了怎样的变化?对这里提出的这些问题的分析依赖于现有的研究,以盘点我们对最近的土耳其公投的真正了解和不了解,以及为什么这些悬而未决的问题可能会产生严重后果。
