Inter-State and Intra-State Conflicts in Global Politics
This book provides analyses with respect to a wide range of contemporary issues, from China to Eurasia, including Turkey's foreign policy, conflicts in the Eastern Mediterranean, Caucasia, Central Asia, Russia, EU, migration, Middle Eastern issues, current conflicts and influences over global competition, energy security and the future of struggles on energy resources, the structure of intra-state conflicts and foreign terrorist fighters. In the study, many interesting questions, such as whether China will turn to a maritime great power in the Pacific Sea, possible impacts of China's BRI project on global politics, the future of the new great game in China's westward politics, and possible effects of North-South corridor on regional power struggle are also examined.
2014 Crisis in Ukraine. Perspectives, Reflections, International Reverberations
This book is a collective attempt to present a wide-ranging picture of international attitudes towards the events currently ongoing in Ukraine. As some experts have already tended to claim, in 2014 this post-Soviet state lying in the Eastern part of the European continent has become a scene of the most serious geopolitical standoff since the end of the Cold war. It would be in place here to remind a well-known clear-cut maxim, formulated by Zbigniew Brzeziński in late 1990s and concerning Ukraine’s key role in shaping the Russian imperial self-identity: “Without Ukraine Russia ceases to be a Eurasian empire”. So what may readers expect to find in this book? It has been divided into two parts, reflecting the perspectives on Ukrainian crisis: first, the perspective of Ukraine’s close neighbours from Central Eastern Europe and Turkey; second, the perspectives of the global players like the EU, the US or China. We hope that such a publication focused on the above-mentioned problems and embedded in the actual reality will be useful both for professionals in the field of political science, as well as for those who have an influence on the shape of the foreign policy.
Conflict Areas in the Caucasus and Central Asia
The Caucasus region and Central Asia covers a large part of the Eurasian. Both regions, where Russia and China have a serious influence and visibility, also have a location that reflects the hegemonic expectations of both these actors. In this context, domestic political developments and even internal conflicts in the region can be linked to the policies of Russia and China to a certain extent and have the potential to affect the motives of these two powers. Although Central Asia is rich in natural resources, it is landlocked and has lagged other nations in terms of agricultural production and industrial development. Although the Caucasus is divided into the North, the territory of Russia, and the South, where three independent states are located, it is insufficient in terms of production and development. The Caucasus stands out especially with energy projects and its feature of being a commercial corridor.
"Radikal Yoruma Dayalı Dini Terör Örgütlerinin İncelenmesi (Ders Notları)"
Dünyadaki her din, terör eylemlerini meşrulaştırmak için kullanılmıştır. Sadece İslami öğretiler değil, Hıristiyanlık ve Yahudilikte de, terör eylemlerini meşrulaştırabilecek kutsal metinler (ayetler) bulmak mümkündür. Bu nedenle dini-söyleme dayalı terörizmi, sadece İslam için ifade etmek yanlış olur. Zaten tarihte çok farklı dine mensup kişiler de, terör eylemlerine başvururken, aynen günümüzde olduğu gibi, dini metinlere ve söylemlere başvurmuştur. Bu örgütlerin ideolojisi nedir? Dini öğretileri nasıl kullanmaktadır? Cihad anlayışları nedir? İntihar eylemlerine neden başvurulmaktadır? İntihar eylemcisi nasıl bu eylem için ikna edilm...
Conflict, Violence, Terrorism, and their Prevention
Conflict, Violence, Terrorism and their Prevention provides an inter-disciplinary and global perspective on aspects of aggression and violence. It explores the individual, group, and international processes and conditions by which violent conflict occurs. It shows the wide range and diffuse nature of contemporary violence and the need to approach it from many disciplines. The book also examines some multi-faceted solutions and responses to conflict. The optimistic conclusion from this work is that there are concrete and specific ways to address conflict and violence. Violence is neither inevitable nor innately determined. These 13 well-researched chapters use a variety of empirical and theor...
Turkey's Foreign Policy and Security Perspectives in the 21st Century
This books aims at analyzing Turkish foreign and security policies in the 21st century. Turkey’s foreign and security policies have become the focus of academic discussions since Turkey is located in the middle of the most unstable region in the world. Turkey’s self-assured foreign policy has similarly attracted the attention of academicians worldwide. Meanwhile, Turkey’s security policy has also been the subject of discussions as the country has been struggling with ethnic terrorism for 35 years. Furthermore, the US invasion of Iraq and the recent Syrian civil war, along with other factors, have caused religious radicalism to expand its power throughout the Middle East, which has heavily impacted on Turkey’s security. Turkey’s longstanding problems with its neighbors have also affected the general characteristics of its foreign policy, particularly leading to its securitization.
The Caucasus Policy of Russia in the Early 21st Century
This book discusses the Caucasus, analysing its strategic aspects and the policies of Russia towards the region throughout history and especially during the Putin administration. It also considers Russia’s relations with both Azerbaijan and Georgia after they gained their independence, and sheds light on the Chechen-Russian conflict and Russo-Georgian Wars that took place following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.
Russia’s Turkey Policy during the Putin Era
Russia-Turkey relations have a long-standing history dating back many years. Having been shaped sometimes by competition and sometimes by cooperation, these relations gained different dimensions when Vladimir Putin’s star rose in the political world in the new millennium. This book discusses the history of the relations between the two countries, before analysing the situation of the Russian Federation and the Republic of Turkey in the first 20 years of the 21st century.
Energy, Trade and Finance in Asia
This study offers a vital reappraisal of the trade relationship between north-east Asia and the Gulf. Writing from a non-western standpoint, Dargin and Lim make a compelling case for how these regions became economically integrated in the wake of the 1973 oil crisis.
Interreligious Curriculum for Peace Education in Nigeria
Nigeria, a country under a military regime for several years, transitioned to a civilian regime in May 1999. Since this change, violent conflicts between Christians and Muslims have continued to erupt. They constitute one of the gravest dangers facing Nigeria, a country with a population of 189 million people. What have Nigerian religious leaders done about this situation, especially in educational circles? Have they received formal educational training to understand the causes of this violence and especially how to provide alternatives for more peaceful relations within Nigeria? Does the current educational system in Nigeria provide the main ingredients for the promotion of a culture of pea...
