Publication Metadata only Water problems: can the United Nations help? a discussion with special reference to the Middle East(Int Water Resources Assoc, 1996) N/A; Turan, İlter; Faculty Member; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/AN/APublication Metadata only Political-ideological constraints on intra-basin cooperation on transboundary waters(Elsevier, 1997) Kut, Gün; N/A; Turan, İlter; Faculty Member; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; N/AThis article offers a different perspective to the well known problems of water scarcity in the Middle East. It is argued that there are strong linkages between prevailing national ideologies and intra-regional water disputes. Domestic political necessities and commitments often limit foreign policy choices open to countries with regard to the settlement of water disputes. This tends to exacerbate existing conflict. Reasons given include ideologically intertwined issues related to national security, including food security and national independence in conjunction with a deep socio-cultural commitment to a prospering agricultural sector. Any proposed solution to Middle East water disputes needs to take ideological-political factors into account in addition to the physical, social, cultural and economic aspects.Publication Metadata only Turkish-Greek balance: a key to peace and cooperation in the Balkans(East European Quarterly, 1998) N/A; Department of History; Turan, İlter; Barlas, Dilek; Faculty Member; Faculty Member; Department of History; College of Administrative Sciences and Economics; College of Social Sciences and Humanities; N/A; 4172N/A
