dc.description.abstractThe purpose of this study is to determine whether the activities of women's cooperatives in Turkey are based on cooperative principles. The main aim of such an examination is to discuss the impact of cooperative principles on the success of the women's cooperative movement. To this end, firstly, the principles of cooperativism and what these principles mean have been discussed, and a general evaluation has been made of women's cooperatives in Turkey. Subsequently, the methodology of the study and the sample profile are explained, and the findings are presented. In-depth interviews were conducted with 70 women members/employees from 20 women's cooperatives engaged in entrepreneurship, production, and operation, using the qualitative research method of semi-structured interview. While the cooperatives in Turkey are seen to fully fulfill their responsibilities towards the community, education and training, and information dissemination, it has been observed that the principles of democratic control, autonomy, and members' economic participation are not fully understood or applied by the members. The deficiencies of women's cooperatives in Turkey in terms of implementing the principles of cooperatives weaken the positive effects of cooperatives on women's empowerment and cause women to continue their dependence in terms of participation in economic and decision-making processes.
