The Menderes IV cabinet was the 23rd government of Turkey, led by Adnan Menderes from December 25, 1957 to May 27, 1960 .

The early parliamentary elections on October 27, 1957 , had won the ruling Democrat Parti by a large margin over Cumhuriyet Halk Partisi , but lost 9.52% of the vote. President Bayar then appointed the previous Prime Minister Menderes as the new Prime Minister and charged him with forming a government.

In the following years, the country's economic and financial crisis intensified. The strengthened opposition was suppressed. Student riots broke out when constitutional lawyers protested at Ankara University and were held accountable. The universities were then closed and the military used to crack down on them. Military academy cadets protested with a silent march. The press was not allowed to report. On May 27, 1960, the military acted. Menderes was arrested and the National Unity Committee formed a non-partisan government led by retired General Cemal Gürsel .
