This type of information also forms the basis for achieving consensus. Understanding the problems in the education system, developing the sharing and finding a strategy for it is a critical process in reaching the foundation. Because such consensus is a key to encouraging synergetic action and cooperation by many segments that typically play a role in parts of implementation policies in the education system. To illustrate the difficulty of achieving consensus in the absence of good analytical work, we have to say that it is the best in policy discussions with priority views on the weaknesses and strengths of the education system, and how its performance should best be improved. As a result, it is not a surprise to see the political discussions at an impasse. Because it is difficult to assess the pros and cons of options only on the basis of theoretical arguments. For example, someone might argue that multilevel learning is pedagogically weak. But someone else also claims that equal-level learning can be quite effective. Because in this, each student devotes more time independently and makes the demands on teachers to teach the diversity of students' learning styles more obvious. It is not possible to emphasize the validity of any assessment of the effectiveness of multiple learning without empirical evidence to compare learning outcomes under the alternative learning arrangement. Of course, analytical work does not consist of discussion alone. But it helps those who shed light on the thoughts in reaching that conclusion.

In this regard, the decision-making process focuses on how the proposals included in the policy agenda will be implemented and with what strategies they can be implemented. Again, qualified information obtained from the policy analysis department can directly affect decision-making mechanisms. However, it is decided by adding cultural, social, economic and other dynamics of society in order to decide on the policy alternative that will be included in the policy agenda. There are basically several different approaches and models for the realization of the decision-making function. The first of these is the rational model, the other is the Deconstructive model, and finally the mixed models that provide a compromise between these two. As a result of the formulation phase in the education policy process within this framework, a set of laws or rules may not always be formed. In some cases, legislators and decision makers may not consider the formulated considerations appropriate. Any formulated issue can be delayed by spreading over time and can be suspended due to different situations. Therefore, the solutions formulated for the solution of any problem do not mean that the problem has been completely solved. In some cases, the general managerial will may not consider problems that are formulated very effectively appropriate for different and dysfunctional reasons. This is an indication that even if the problem is very important and is very important by different groups, it may fall off the agenda over time.

İn this context, Ghazali’s Works named Tehafütü’l Felasife and Faysalu’t- Tefrika were examined. When these two Works of Ghazali are discussed and examined, it turns out that two different Ghazali characters are encountered. The first of these is a Ghazali who defends and protects the idea of circumcision against other schools. He played a very effective role in his lifetime in order to dominate the idea of th people of circumcision and had an extreme understanding that takfired Islamic philosophers. We observe Ghazali’s second approach in his work called Faysalu’t- Tefrika, which reveals a completely different understanding from the disaster. İn this work, Ghazali followed a scientific method in the claims of truth of religions and sects rather than showing political views in the context of imitation, takfir and marginalization, and showed a very conciliatory attitude. İmam Ghazali, who is affiliated whith the Eşari school, emphasized that imitation is one of the reasons that lead the person to takfir. Imitationism, which leads people to perversion and is spread over a wide base, is a state of blind adherence to any view or religion without being able to fully undestand the cause. Due to this bigoted thought, many sects and movements were able to find supporters whose shock was tight to them. In this sect, the supporters, who are connected to the movements whith an algebraic apporoach, are unquestioningly connected to their belief and have heatedly defended their beliefs. This situation negatively affected Islamic society and caused today’s people to not analyze facts and events in the light of reason and science, but to act with a reductionist approach.

Initially emerging as a nationalist movement within the Ottoman Empire, Dashnaktsutyun was co-opted by external powers, particularly Britain, to serve broader imperial interests in the Eurasian region. The study delves into the organization’s activities in the Ottoman, Russian, and Iranian territories, highlighting how its operations, under the guise of Armenian nationalism, were significantly influenced by British geopolitical objectives. The paper also explores the complex interplay between nationalist movements and international power politics, particularly in the context of the Great Game between the British and Russian Empires. A critical analysis of Dashnaktsutyun’s role during key historical events, such as the Soviet invasion of Armenia in 1920, reveals a prioritization of foreign directives over national resistance, impacting the trajectory of Armenian history and reflecting the broader dynamics of early 20th-century imperialism. This study serves as a cautionary tale of how nationalist movements can be redirected by external influences, often at the expense of their foundational principles and the welfare of their people.
