On the occasion of the centennia! of the former French President Charles de Gaulle's binh, i would like to offer a comparison betweeu Atatürk, the national hero of Turkey, and de Gaulle, the national hem of France. Although the lwo great statesmen lived and acled at differenı periods of history, they belong more or less lO the same half-century and were. therefore, subjecı to roughly similar political and social forces. Comparing them can be considered usefuı to beuer understand the distinguisbed persons as well as their times.
