Abstract
Every major revolutionary movement that has been successful throughout history has undergone a long period of intellectual preparation. In this respect, as in other reforms carried out by Mustafa Kemal Ataturk after he won the National Struggle, the foundations of the 1926 Law Revolution, which was realized by the adoption of the Swiss Civil Code, go up to the 1839 Tanzimat movement.
