Abstract

Man, as a social being, can only live within society. As an indispensable result of social life, another aspect to pay attention for people’s behavior, their relations and especially their communication is that they obey the rules formed by religion, morality and law. Protocol and social behaviour rules, which are accepted to have begun with the human history, have come to this day after some improvements in the course of time. These rules emerged from history and cultural values of people. The most significant aspects of these rules are that they are accepted by the majority and compromised to practise and consequently they gained international identity. The sole reason of this is that essence and basis of these rules are made of kindness, manners, tolerance, respect, love and empathy. During the Ottoman era, practises called ceremonials in formal area, or etiquette, social behavior rules, good manners in social area or protocol in formal area are very significant in international relations, formal studies and our social lives. These rules, which are considered as important as religious rules, have an important role in international relations and are strictly practised in France and England, and they begin to be used in both international relations and daily life by all countries. This study focuses on permanent settlement of the Ottoman Empire, parts until and after Tanzimat reform era of ceremonial practises beginning with the use of Topkapı Palace and protocol and social behavior rules in the following Republic period. A comparison and cause-effect relations of practises from all periods will be examined.
