Yakın dönem güç mücadeleleri ışığında orta asya gerçeği

Rus ve Türk yetkililer tarafından farklı anlamlarda kullanılan Avrasya bölgesi ve özelde de Hazar enerji havzası, tarih boyunca, uluslararası politikada önemli bir rol oynamıştır. "Büyük Oyun" adıyla anılan Sritanya İmparatorluğu ile Çarlık Rusya sı arasındaki siyasi mücadeleye sahne olan bu bölge, 1991 yılında, Sovyetler Birliği'nin yıkılmasıyla birlikte, yeniden stratejik rekabetin oyun sahası haline gelmiştir. Büyük Oyun'da taraflar, doğrudan bölgeyi idari ve askeri kontrolleri altına alma mücadelesi yaşadılar. Günümüzde ise, ABD, Avrupa Birliği, Rusya, Çin, İran ve Türkiye arasında yaşanan stratejik rekabetin temel amacı şöyle özetlenebilir. Bölge pazarına kim hakim olacak, bölge yer altı kaynakları hangi güzergahtan dünya pazarlarına sunulacak ve güzergahları devletlerden hangileri kendi uluslararası petrol şirketleri tarafından kontrol edilecek.

New Central Asia, The: The Regional Impact Of International Actors

This book focuses on Central Asia's place in world affairs and how international politics of state-building has affected the Asian region, thus filling the gaps in ongoing discussions on the rise of Asia in global governance. It also attempts to generalize and contextualize the “Central Asian experience” and re-evaluate its comparative relevance, by explaining the complex dynamics of Central Asian politics through a detailed analysis of the effects of major international actors — both international organizations as well as current and rising great powers.

Political Psychology of Turkish Political Behavior

  • Type: Book

  • Publisher: Routledge

The primary motivation for this book is to focus on something crucial that is missing in Turkish political science: well-founded theories on the Turkish voter and empiricism in scholarly research. Given the absence of such theories, one could ask what then the best model is for explaining a Turkish citizen’s vote choice and political behaviour, and what schools of thought Turkish political science has. Unfortunately, it is not possible to offer a satisfactory response to either question at this point, and among the clear deficiencies in the current literature the primary one is the lack of a robust model explaining how Turkish citizens form their political attitudes, engage in political pa...

Blue Black Sea

This book presents the opinions of experts and researchers from the Black Sea states with respect to history, security, politics, strategy, energy, and economy in the region, and explains various dimensions of the present international relations and problem areas from both theoretical and conceptual perspectives. Offering the reader a comprehensive approach that covers a wide range of affairs, it is hoped that this book will fill an important gap in international relations studies. While the added word “Blue” in the title indicates our shared aspirations for a clean and peaceful future, overall this book is intended to provide valuable academic assessments and share them with the wider world community, thus disseminating findings about the regional and global policies being pursued in the Black Sea region today.

Türk Dış politikası Yapım Sürecinde Karar Birimlerinin Etkileri

Karar Birimi Kuramı, devletlerin dış politika davranışlarını açıklamak amacıyla bürokratik siyaset yaklaşımı çerçevesinde karar alma süreçleri üzerine yapılan araştırmaları tanımlamaktadır. Karar Birimi Kuramının odaklandığı noktalar, bürokratik politikalar, grup dinamikleri, başkanlık danışma sistemleri, hükümet politikaları, iç muhalefete karşı stratejiler ve koalisyon politikalarıdır. Bu açıdan bakıldığında, Karar Birimi Kuramının, mevcut araştırma literatürünü bütünleştirmeye çalıştığı gözlenmektedir. Dış politika analizinde, geleneksel ve yapısal realist yaklaşımdan farklı olarak, karar alma sürecine ve karar alıc...

Ideological Roots of the Conflict between Pro-Kurdish and Pro-Islamic Parties in Turkey

The current agenda of international politics is full of headline-grabbing conflicts. This book focuses on one such conflict, namely the Kurdish question in Turkey, with recent peace negotiations between Turkey and the PKK having apparently failed. The pro-Islamic ruling party of Turkey (the AK Party) and the ideologically leftist pro-Kurdish parties are the key determinants of this conflict. Their historical development since the inception of modern Turkey is discussed here to demonstrate the similarities and differences between these oppositional social and political groups. In this sense, the book claims that ideological rigidity is one of the core factors shaping the relationship between these parties. As such, the book provides a detailed investigation of the ideological perspectives of the key actors in the conflict in order to gain a better understanding of why the last initiative ended negatively.
