15) "None of the rights and freedoms embodied in the Constitution shall be exercised with the aim of destroying the democratic and secular republic". (Turkish Constitution Article 14). This provision describes a limitation to use of rights emanating from which characteristic of the Republic? Nationalism Social state Public peace Respect for human rights National solidarity

The correct answer is Nationalism.<br /><br />Explanation: The provision in Article 14 of the Turkish Constitution states that none of the rights and freedoms embodied in the Constitution shall be exercised with the aim of destroying the democratic and secular republic. This indicates a limitation on the use of rights that is based on the characteristic of nationalism, which emphasizes the preservation and protection of the nation and the state. The other options, such as social state, public peace, respect for human rights, and national solidarity, do not directly relate to the limitation on the use of rights described in this provision.
