How did Mustaf Kemal die?
Mustafa Kemal Ataturk sought to westernize Turkey in every manner, He imposed a wide range of reforms that included emancipation of women, the Latin alphabet, freedom of religion, education of the masses and even rules on the type of dress that was acceptable. His rule wasn't gentle, it was effective. ----- Unfortunetely the times that these happened were not times to be gentle. An uneducated, backward population, another world war at the door etc.
Was Abd Aziz al Saud a dictator like Mustafa Kemal?
It depends how the question is intended.If the question merely seeks to ask whether King Abdulaziz as-Saud and President Mustafa Kemal Ataturk are both dictators, then the simple answer is: "Yes, they were both dictators."However, if the question is asking whether or not their styles of dictatorial rule were similar, the clear answer is: "No." King Abdulaziz created an absolute monarchy and aligned himself closely with Wahhabist Clerics, creating an indirect theocracy. Abdulaziz tried to maintain the cultural conservatism of Nejd and Hejaz and only allowed Westerners in to the country to the extent that they could contribute to petroleum extraction and refinement and minimal tourism. Conversely, President Ataturk was bent on a nationalist irreligious agenda. Ataturk eliminated the Caliphate and proclaimed Turkey a state without religion (much like how the US is a state without religion). He improved literacy by reforming the alphabet and worked closely with Westerners to modernize Turkey in everything from technology, to dress, to legal codes.
Was Mustafa Kemal Atatürk fascist?
Ataturk borrowed from Fascist Italy, it is plain in his Six Arrows Ideology. He used Corporatism and some elements of fascist structure. However, Ataturk differed in the sense he did not intend to create a permanent dictatorship. He was alleged to have said perhaps in joking:"Government of the people in spite of the people." He would rule as a dictator while he uplifted the culture and education of Turkey and intended the dictatorship to...using a Marxian phrase "to whither away" and evolve into a democratic republic. He did not want Turkey in the post-Sultanate era to become some kind of conservative religious dictatorship. An ignorant illiterate population tends to put a repressive conservative regime in power. Ataturk wanted to prevent this. Using the trappings of "fascism" he uplifed the culture and education of Turkey and ended centuries of neglect. He also opposed the direction Italy was taking and knew Mussolini was not going to last long on the world stage. While perhaps modern Turks or his political heirs the CHP will not admit "fascist" roots, Ataturk's regime was born in an era when fascism was a popular alternative "third way" form of government between capitalism and communism. In the Turkish sense Ataturk's efforts paid off. In Turkey today the true test of how effective "Kemalism" can face the challenges of this new century remains to be seen. Old traditions are creeping up. Can some of the old adjust to the secular Turkey Ataturk moulded? "To be continued...." as the old serials went.
