In contrast, in Turkey, the traditional resistance to reforms in the State bureaucracy, including the Judiciary, the deficient willpower of the Government's political branches for the implementation of the reforms, the rise of nationalism, and the role of the military have perpetuated the difficulties for an effective reception of the ECHR. Following the restoration of democracy in Greece in 1975, the fundamentals of democracy and rule of law soon became commonplace. However, in the last three decades, differences in the effectiveness of the ECHR in Greece and in Turkey have become increasingly visible. Both countries ratified the ECHR almost simultaneously in the 50's, without critically and rigorously scrutinizing their domestic laws as to their conformity with the ECHR, and despite theoretically recognizing judicial review of legislation, the Greek and Turkish courts have traditionally deferred to the other two branches of Government. This chapter discusses the reception of the ECHR in Greece and Turkey.
