description The Republican People's Party (CHP), Turkey's oldest party, was closed down by the military government in 1981. Since reopening in 1992, it has represented elitist modernism moderated by social democratic rhetoric. It has achieved limited electoral success because of strict domination by its leader, party infighting and inability to adapt to a changing global environment or to offer solutions to Turkey's domestic and external concerns which the electorate find credible. Currently the main opposition party, its future does not appear promising.
