Timeline
In 2012, a book entitled The Day Turkey Stood Still: Merve Kavakci's Walk Into the Parliament by Richard Peres was published.
In 2007, Kavakcı won a legal case when the European Court of Human Rights found that her expulsion from parliament was a violation of her human rights. Since then, Kavakcı has been an outspoken critic of Turkey's secular political system, traveling the globe in support of Muslim women's rights, especially the right to wear the hijab. In addition to lecturing at universities throughout Europe and the United States, Kavakcı addressed the 2004 Parliament of the World's Religions in Barcelona. She also addressed the House of Lords in London, England, and has lectured and spoken at myriad American and European Universities including Harvard, Yale, Berlin, Hamburg, Hanover, Duisburg and Cambridge.
Kavakcı is recognised as one of the World's 500 Most Influential Muslims. She was also recognised as a "Woman of Excellence" by the NAACP and GWU in 2004. She was awarded the Public Service Award in tribute and in recognition of her efforts towards the advancement of human rights and Muslim Women's empowerment by the International Association for Women and Children in 2000. She was given a Service to Humanity Award by Haus Der Kulturellen Aktivität und Toleranz in Vienna, Austria, and was granted a Mother of the Year Award by Capital Platform of Ankara and National Youth Organisation in 1999.
On 2 May 1999, members of the Democratic Left Party (Turkish: Demokratik Sol Parti) prevented Kavakcı from taking her oath of office at the swearing-in ceremony they objected to her wearing a headscarf. She had not disclosed her American citizenship which was revealed after the elections, and she lost her seat in the parliament in March 2001. The Virtue Party was closed down by the Constitutional Court in June 2001.
