After the establishment of the republic, Turkey had afforded to create national bourgeoisie. The main aim was to control economical relations and form a new bourgeoisie. In recent years in Turkey a new form of economic entrepreneurship which has called Anatolian capital due to the origins of some Anatolian cities has been witnessed. Some people describe this new economic form by reference to Calvinism and Max Webers Protestant work ethic notion. According to this point of view, the investments of enterpreneurs do not only bring greater prosperity to themselves but also they contribute to the well-being of all society. The majority of these new capitalists started their careers in 80s or early 90s at a time when Turkish economy and society has been entering a dramatic socio-economic transformation process. In this period, certainly Turgut Özal tried to liberate the economy and promoted Anatolian businessmen. So, new capitalists consolidated their place in Turkish economy and a new class emerged in Özal period. After the November 28 Process, Justice and Development Partys conservatist identity and liberal economic policies were a new starting point in the green capital. In short, the rise of a new kind of capitalism tied up the integration of Turkish economy to global capitalist system since the early 1980s. The most important development of this process are the fraction existed in bourgeoisie and the emerge of a partial bourgeoisie in Turkey.
