Özet:
Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'nin Osmanlı Devleti'nden miras aldığı önemli siyasi sorunlardan birisi de azınlıklardır. Yeni Türk Devleti'nin kuruluşunu tescilleyen Lozan Barış Antlaşmasında III. Kısım Azınlıkların Korunması 37-45. maddeleri ile Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'nde bulunan azınlıkların her türlü hakları yasal güvencelerle teminat altına alınmıştı. Buna rağmen cumhuriyet dönemi hükümetlerinin politikalarında azınlıklara karşı kimi zaman farklı politikalar uygulnmıştır. Nitekim Türkiye Cumhuriyeti'ni tek parti iktidarı döneminde yöneten CHP hükümetleri, azınlıklara yönelik 1934 Trakya Olayları ve 1942 Varlık Vergisi uygulamalarından dolayı bu kesimler tarafından tepkilerle karşılanmıştır. Ancak, çok partili hayata geçilmesi ile birlikte kurulan DP'nin iktidara gelmesiyle azınlıklar hemen hemen her alanda rahatlamışlardır. Çünkü DP iktidarı eğitim, kültür, din, vakıf ve siyasal hayat alanlarında azınlıkların lehine düzenlemelerde bulunarak onların güvenini kazanmıştı. Her ne kadar 6-7 Eylül olaylarının kısa süreli olumsuzluklar yaşansa da bu durum azınlıkların DP'ye olan güveni ciddi anlamda sarsmamıştır. DP iktidarı Lozan Barış Antlaşmasından doğan hakla Batı Trakyadaki Türk Müslüman azınlığın da haklarının korunması konusunda mücadele vermiştir.
