Abstract: This study examines the role and importance of civil society organizations (CSOs) based on right- and left-wing ideologies in Turkish public administration. It has been found that right-wing CSOs are more effective in preserving conservative values, promoting social solidarity, and directly contributing to public policy-making. Particularly, right-wing CSOs have established close ties with the state, playing a significant role in decision-making processes and implementing major projects in collaboration with local governments. On the other hand, left-wing CSOs have focused on raising awareness in areas such as human rights, environmental protection, and social equality. However, their impact has been limited due to political pressures and financial constraints. The study concludes that while both right- and left-wing CSOs provide multifaceted contributions to public administration, ideological divides hinder effective cooperation and limit their overall potential.
