In this study, the place of Turkism-Turanism ideas in the magazines that started to operate in the Ottoman Empire for the first time since 1795 will be examined, and the studies put forward by publications such as magazines and newspapers until the Republican period will be discussed with a broad approach. When Turkish history is examined, it will be seen that these ideas do not consist of only ideology or a political view, especially for Turkish nationalists, but are the only sources of inspiration for raising the awareness of related communities living in different geographies, for Turks to adopt nationality in all areas and to ensure the independence of societies living in occupied Turkish towns. The intellectual struggles of Turkish intellectuals in the name of Turkism-Turanism will be explained in a wide and understandable language through the press such as newspapers and magazines published in other cities, especially in Istanbul. How the Turkism movement and Turan ideal, which continues today, appeared in our press history from the eyes of Turkish intellectuals will be revealed in detail with our study. Although there have been many academic studies on both the Turkism movement and the Turan ideal so far, the examination of these issues especially in terms of their impact on the history of the press has remained incomplete due to partial handling. In this regard, in our study, we will try to express the struggles of both the journals that established their editorial policy on Turkism-Turanism and the struggles of the Turkish intellectuals who wrote about both ideas in these journals, in general terms.
