%X This study focuses on the Carl Schmitt¡¯s ideas regarding ¡°the crisis of parliamentarism¡±, which managed to go beyond nearly a century from certain respects; and also discusses the Schmitt¡¯s capacity of expression about contemporary politics in the context of parliamentarism. Generally, this study analyzes Scmitt¡¯s ideas that the parliamentarism is a hollow liberal system, and the parliament¡¯s main principles of ¡°discussion¡± and ¡°openness¡± remain dysfunctional due to the fact that the political decisions could not be adopted in the parliament, and also the parliament, as a composite structure embedded superficially with elements such as democracy, liberalism, rationalism and pluralism, is converted into a show case where perpetual discussions are made; and discusses Schmitt¡¯s solution proposal. In this context, it is acknowledged that the Schmitt¡¯s ideas regarding the parliamentarism and the critiques against them constitute an important and fruitful discussion for the development of contemporary democratic politics
