In Management Tradition of Turk State Change From Custom To Manners


Custom (töre) is constitution that based on the tradition of old Turkish state. Custom is the sum of laws that Turkish rulers make the dominant to their nations and states. The effect of the custom has continued in period after the Islam. Customary (örf) is the best example of this effect. Today, customary, although regarded as a social norm, in fact, Turkish custom tradition along with the Islam has won its last form. Roles of Turkish sultans and clerics is greater in acquired and consisted of this last shape. In fact, they have invented a new tradition that this tradition name is örf (customary). In the Turkish law tradition has been experienced an evolutionary change from custom to customary. We do not look at to experienced this change as entry into a religious structure of custom tradition. Because the in some convention applications of Turkish sultans (especially during the Ottoman period) have been seen features that do not fit into the religious rules. In this context, the Turkish custom tradition has evolved into a new tradition that it continued own tradition in Islamic period. That his name is customary. Turkish sultans who not afraid to displaying this attitude for centuries is owner of this new tradition that invented it.
