Abstract
Bu araştırmanın amacı 1954-1960 yılları arasında Kıbrıs meselesinin Akis dergisi yayınları çerçevesinde değerlendirilmesidir. Bu çalışmada tarihi süreçlerden belli bir dönem ele alınmış ve nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden belge ve doküman analizi metodu uygulanmıştır. Çalışmada ilgili yıllara ait Akis dergisi verileri toplanıp sınıflandırılmış ve analiz edilmiştir. Analiz edilme aşamasında haberlere ilişkin tablo ve yorum kullanılmıştır. Haberlerin içerisinde en çok kullanılan kelimelerin analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda Akis dergisinin ilgili yıllarda Kıbrıs meselesine ilişkin tüm süreçleri açıklıkla yansıttığı, zaman zaman hükümeti ağır bir dille eleştirdiği, bu süre boyunca bir muhalefet rolü sürdürdüğü görülmektedir. Akis dergisinin Kıbrıs meselesinde Türkiye’yi harekete geçiren bir duruş sergilediği görülmektedir. Aynı zamanda Akis dergisi Kıbrıs meselesine ilişkin tüm detayları sayfalarına taşıyarak kamuoyunda bilinç oluşturmayı hedeflemiştir. Bu tez çalışması, uygulayıcılara ve araştırmacılara Kıbrıs meselesinin Türk siyasal hayatı ve kamu oyundaki yeri ve algılanışı hakkında önemli veriler sunmuştur.
