Seminar paper from the year 2012 in the subject Sociology - Relationships and Family, grade: A, University of Cambridge, language: English, abstract: In most communities, women are viewed as the threads that knight the society together. They are the source of life and are treated with respect and highly valued. However, this was not the case in ancient empires. The rights for women have been a constant struggle that has come to be standardized in the twenty first century. Despite this, some societies especially in the less developed countries continue to deny women their basic human rights. To understand how women strive and contribute to the development of the society, this paper is dedicated to examining the role that women played in the ancient Turkish empire to date.

On different occasions, the steppe culture that was dominant in this empire influenced the rule of the Muslim law bending some of the needs of the leaders to fit the needs of the states. The strength of a state, nation or empire is dependent on the structure of the family. If the family structure within a region is cohesive, then the state will enjoy peace and harmony and this will eventually contribute to development of the region.

An investigation that reveals the paradoxical nature of the patriarchal ties that bind Turkish women politicians. These women are also Muslim women expressing themselves in a political medium both secular and democratic, yet in a context in which neither secular nor democratic politics is firmly embedded.
