SORU:

What were reasons that could explain why İTC  (İttihat ve Terakki Cemiyeti-İTC) had problems while ruling?


CEVAP:

After restoring the constitution, the elections were held in November-December 1908. The Young Turks won the majority in the chamber in the elections. The Young Turks united under the name of the Society of Union and Progress (İttihat ve Terakki Cemiyeti-İTC) and they controlled the parliament. İTC started to rule the country and created its own opposition. There are two reasons that could explain why İTC had problems. First, the Union didn’t have a political agenda to solve the main problems of the empire. Second, the Union didn’t have enough experience in power (Karpat, 2010, p. 111-112).
