Abstract

In the previous chapters, various notions about social dialogue have been emphasized and the research outline about the theoretical framework was presented. At this stage, the primary issue that attracted attention was Turkish labour relations or more specifically social dialogue at the workplace level, which will be explained via existing theories and will be based on the historical background that is specific to Turkey. In this context, each of the existing theoretical approaches can explain a different aspect of the Turkish labour relations patterns. Moreover, there are forms of relations in which the theoretical approaches that are presented in the theoretical framework of the Turkish working life cannot be explained altogether. Therefore, there have been attempts to try and understand these forms of relations within both institutional traditions and personal expressions with the opinions of subjects representing working life. For this purpose, the hermeneutical approach has been selected as the method in this study and the in-depth interview is preferred as the basic research technique within the framework of the Delphi technique.
