Publication Metadata only Ontological insecurity and the return of the Greek-Turkish conflicts: reconfiguring Hagia Sophia as an ontic space(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024) Sofuoğlu, Nasuh; Department of International Relations; Rumelili, Bahar; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and EconomicsThis article locates the rising tensions between Greece and Turkey in the milieu of increasing ontological insecurity in the European periphery. Building on the growing literature on ontological security in IR, we argue that the dissipation of Europe as a framework of meaning and identity in the European periphery has generated ontological insecurity-a state of general anxiety which stems from the disruption of self-narratives-on part of the actors concerned. Following a decade and a half of rapprochement within the framework of Turkey's EU membership bid, this ontological insecurity has created a longing for a return to the established conflict narratives and antagonistic identity constructions in Greece and Turkey. We show the linkage between ontological insecurity and the escalation of disputes by tracing the political and societal discourses surrounding the reconversion of Hagia Sophia in Istanbul from a museum back to a mosque.Publication Metadata only Regionalism, nationalism and realpolitik in Central Asia(Carfax Publ Co, 1997) N/A; Department of International Relations; Kubicek, Paul J.; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Turkey's Kurdish conflict: changing context, and domestic and regional implications(Middle East Institute (MEI), 2004) Department of International Relations; Somer, Murat; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 110135This article develops new analytical categories that are necessary to analyze Turkey's Kurdish conflict in its changed domestic and international environments and to evaluate the policy options. If Turkish state policies and discourse, and that of the other regional and international actors, signal to Kurds that the Turkish and Kurdish identities are mutually exclusive categories with rival interests, radical shifts may occur in Turkish Kurds' social and political identities and preferences. If state policies promote these identities as complements with compatible interests, radical shifts are unlikely and Turkey can play a more constructive regional role.Publication Metadata only A social history of Ottoman İstanbul(Middle East Institute (MEI), 2010) Department of Archeology and History of Art; Ergin, Nina Macaraig; Faculty Member; Department of Archeology and History of Art; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Facing new security threats in an era of global transformations: Turkey's challenges of energy security, climate change and sustainability(Taylor & Francis, 2023) Department of International Relations; Yılmaz, Şuhnaz Özbağcı; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 46805Turkey's geopolitical position at the intersection of numerous conflict-laden regions has compelled Ankara to prioritize hard security concerns in defining its foreign and domestic policies. While these concerns will maintain their significance, new global threats and opportunities, particularly in energy security, climate change, and sustainability, necessitate a reconceptualization of security. This study posits that this new conceptualization must be more comprehensive by integrating these new challenges into conceptions security. After presenting pressing transformations in the energy security and climate change realm, the critical puzzle that the article will explore is Turkey's main challenges and opportunities in meeting its rapidly increasing energy needs on the one hand and facing mounting climate change and sustainability-related risks on the other. Moreover, the study will examine the domestic and foreign policy implications of these transformations in times of global changes and uncertainties.Publication Metadata only Suits and uniforms: Turkish foreign policy since the Cold War(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2004) Department of International Relations; Yılmaz, Şuhnaz Özbağcı; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 46805Publication Metadata only Gendering public diplomacy: Turkey and Europe in the 1930s(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2023) Aydın-Düzgit, Senem; Gülmez, Seçkin Barış; Department of International Relations; Rumelili, Bahar; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 51356This article scrutinizes the role of women's rights and women actors in Turkey's public diplomacy strategy in the 1930s and discusses whether and if so how it managed to change the long-standing European prejudices against Turkey. Accordingly, first, the article discusses the early reforms of the Turkish Republic and their European reception. Then, relying on critical discourse analysis, it examines two prominent cases; namely, Keriman Halis' victory in the 'Miss Universe' beauty contest in 1932 and the organization of the 12(th) Congress of the International Alliance of Women in Istanbul in 1935, comparatively to observe how they resonated in Europe. The article will conclude by assessing whether the changing status of women in Turkish society has played a role in shifting the European perceptions of the newly established Turkish Republic.Publication Metadata only The Turkey-EU-US triangle in perspective: transformation or continuity?(Middle East Inst, 2005) N/A; Department of International Relations; Department of International Relations; Öniş, Ziya; Yılmaz, Şuhnaz Özbağcı; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; 7715; 46805This article examines the delicate dynamics of the triangle of Turkey-EU-US relations. While acknowledging the role of the United States in promoting close links between Turkey and the EU, this study underlines the limits of American influence on EU decision-making on issues concerning "deep integration." In this context, the future of this triangular relation depends on the interplay of contending forces in Turkey's domestic political arena as well as the dynamics of trans-Atlantic relations in the international scene.Publication Metadata only Variations on a corporatist theme: interest associations in post-soviet Ukraine and Russia(Carfax Publ Co, 1996) N/A; Department of International Relations; Kubicek, Paul J.; Faculty Member; Department of International Relations; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/AN/APublication Metadata only The political economy of economic and social policy in contemporary Turkey: An introduction to the special issue(Taylof & Francis, 2018) Savaşkan, Osman; N/A; Dorlach, Tim Daniel; PhD Student; Graduate School of Sciences and Engineering; N/AN/A
