Article Citation Count: 02015 PARİS İKLİM DEĞİŞİKLİĞİ KONFERANSI ÇERÇEVESİNDE NÜKLEER ENERJİ: BİR ÇÖZÜM MÜ, YOKSA BİR SORUN MU?(Rasim Özgür Dönmez, 2017) Keçeci, F. Orçunİklim değişikliği sadece gelişmekte olan ülkeler için değil aynı zamanda gelişmiş sanayi toplumları için de küresel bir sorundur. Karbondioksit (CO2) yayarak daha fazla fosil yakıt tüketmek iklim değişikliğine yol açar ve bu sorun insan faaliyetlerinden kaynaklanır. İklim değişikliğinin bir sonucu olarak küresel ısınma tüm insanlığı ve ekolojik dengeyi tehdit etmektedir. Devletler arasındaki farklılık ve sorunlara rağmen; dünya ülkeleri son zamanlarda iklim değişikliğiyle uluslararası arenada mücadele etmektedir. Özellikle iklim değişikliğine yönelik riskleri azaltmak amacıyla Kasım 2015’te gerçekleştirilen Paris İklim Değişikliği Konferansı’ndaki en önemli meselelerden birisi nükleer enerjidir. Bu bağlamda, bu makale nükleer enerjinin iklim değişikliğine katkı sağlayıp sağlamayacağını incelemektedir.Article Citation Count: 1A 2020 vision for the Black Sea region: the Commission on the Black Sea proposes(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010) Aydın, Mustafa; Triantaphyllou, DimitriosThe Black Sea region is coming into its own although it is at times a contested and dangerous neighbourhood. Despite heightened interest in the region its real priorities and needs are still being largely ignored by insiders and outsiders alike. What is needed are regional solutions for regional problems. The authors present the key findings and recommendations of the Commission on the Black Sea a civil society initiative comprising a number of current and former policy-makers scholars and practitioners both from within the region and from outside with the purpose of contributing to a joint vision and a common strategy for the Black Sea region by developing new knowledge in areas of key concern.Article Citation Count: 13After the Crimean crisis: towards a greater Russian maritime power in the Black Sea(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014) Delanoe, IgorThe modernization of the Black Sea Fleet currently underway is believed to be one of the most ambitious parts of the Russian State Arms Procurement programme 2011-2020. Up to 18 units are being built and are expected to be commissioned in the Russian Black Sea Fleet by 2020 while new infrastructures are being developed. However Russia's annexation of Crimea in March 2014 has overthrown the Black Sea maritime context. It is likely to give substantial impetus to Russian naval plans in the Black Sea and by extension to sustain Moscow's resumption of naval activity in the Mediterranean. Yet whereas Russia's maritime power has been dramatically enhanced due to the takeover of Crimea Moscow's naval power in the Black Sea and in the Mediterranean remains challenged by a set of qualitative factors. Beyond the Ukrainian crisis has demonstrated the inability of the European Union to manage its Black Sea environment as well as it has highlighted the United States waning influence and interests in the region.Article Citation Count: 3The AKP story: Turkey's bumpy reform path towards the European Union(2011) McDonald, Deniz BingölThe Justice and Development Party (AKP) government between 2002 and 2007 managed to accomplish unprecedented economic reforms maintaining 8% growth and passed legislation to change Turkey into a more democratic country in line with the Copenhagen political conditions. After being rewarded with the start of accession negotiations in 2005 and an electoral landslide in 2007 AKP's second term in office is in stark contrast with its earlier days of glory. AKP disengaged itself from the IMF agreement and took EU reforms off the top of its agenda bringing half a decade of political and economic reforms to a halt. The paper argues that AKP utilized the credibility of IMF and EU support to defeat its domestic rivals but once the external incentives lessened AKP turned inwards to consolidate its power and cared for little else. The first part of the paper explores how AKP managed to construct such a broad reform consensus and assesses the role of the external influence. The second part explores why and how this reform consensus fell apart.Article Citation Count: 0Algı mı, söylem mi? Kopenhag Okulu ve yeni-klasik gerçekçilikte güvenlik tehditleri(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği İktisadi İşletmesi, 2011) Akgül Açıkmeşe, SinemBu makale, güvenlik tehditlerinin ortaya çıkışı bakımından yeni-klasik gerçekçilikteki algısal yaklaşımla, Kopenhag Okulunun söylemle inşaya dayalı yöntemini karşılaştırmaktadır. Makalenin hareket noktası, güvenlik tehditlerinin içeriği ve güvenlik aktörleri bakımından farklı perspektifl ere sahip bu iki yaklaşımın güvenliğin çalışılmasında metodolojik benzerlikler içermesi nedeniyle karşılaştırılabilir olduğu varsayımıdır. Makale, tehditlerin ortaya çıkışı bakımından yeni-klasik gerçekçiliğin algılara dayalı öznel yaklaşımının Kopenhag Okulu tarafından kısmen benimsendiğini vurgulayarak, Okulun söyleme dayalı özneler-arası alternatif bir model geliştirdiğini aktarmaktadır. Bu çerçevede, makale öncelikle Güvenlik Çalışmaları yazınında güvenlik tehdidinin içeriği konusundaki tartışmalara yer vermektedir. Ardından, yeni-klasik gerçekçiliği çatısında barındıran Gerçekçi Güvenlik Çalışmalarının tehdidin içeriği ve ortaya çıkışına dair varsayımlarını karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirmekte ve yeni-klasik gerçekçiliğin algısal perspektifi ni analiz etmektedir. Son olarak, Kopenhag Okulunun tehditlerle ilgili analizinin çerçevesini oluşturan güvenlikleştirme yaklaşımının tehditlerin kapsamı ve dayanağına dair tespitlerini Okulun kullandığı söz edimi, siyaset teorisi ve söylem analizi perspektifl erinden yeni-klasik gerçekçilikle karşılaştırmalı olarak incelemektedir.Article Citation Count: 12An Analysis of International Relations Academics in Turkey and their approaches to the field: TRIP 2014 Faculty Survey Results(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2016) Aydın, Mustafa; Hisarlıoğlu, Fulya; Yazgan, KorhanDespite the increasing interest in the studies inquiring the limits autonomous character of and the interactions between the International Relations (IR) discipline and other academic fields the scope and scale of empirical research on these issues are relatively small. In order to contribute to the discussion on the limits and peculiarities of the IR discipline and to shed light on the development current status and major characteristics of the IR studies in Turkey its place in the global IR discipline and the views of LR. scholars on major issues on the global regional and national agenda two surveys were conducted by the International Relations Council of Turkey (IRCT) in 2007 and 2009. Later on the IRTC collaborated with the Institute for the Theory and Practice of International Relations at the College of William and Mary to conduct further surveys in 2011 and 2014. This paper presents findings of the last survey on Turkey based on the worldwide research simultaneously conducted in 31 different countries in September 2014.Article Citation Count: 0Araştırma Merkezlerinin Yükselişi, Türkiye’de Dış Politika ve Ulusal Güvenlik Kültürü(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği İktisadi İşletmesi, 2012) Çelik, Nihat[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 0Başarısızdevlet-demokratik model ülke sarmalında Gürcistan'ın 20 yılı(2012) Çelikpala, MitatGürcistan, bağımsızlığın ilan edildiği 1990’lı yıllardan bu güne zayıf siyasi, ekonomik ve finansal yapısı ile etnik sorunlarıyla sürekli olarak bir başarısız devlet görüntüsü sergiledi. Ülkede güçlü, demokratik ve kapsayıcı bir siyasi liderin çıkmaması, etkin muhalefetin oluşamaması birçok sorunlara yol açtı. Gürcistan’ın kısa vadeli geleceği, 2012’de yapılacak parlamento seçimleriyle nasıl bir parlamento oluşacağı ve 2013’te yapılacak başkanlık seçimlerinin nasıl seyredeceği konusuna bağlıdır. Seçimlerden sonra yürürlüğe girecek anayasa değişikliklerinin nasıl bir düzen oluşturacağı, Saakaşvili’nin siyasi tavrı ve geleceği, Gürcistan’ın ana gündemini belirleyecektir. Gürcistan’ın en büyük sorunu, Saakaşvili’nin karşısına 2003–2004 dönemindeki gibi etkili ve güçlü bir yeni Saakaşvili’nin çıkmamış olmasıdır. Saakaşvili’nin Rusya’dakine benzer bir “Putin-Medvedev” senaryosunu mu tercih edeceği yoksa farklı ve demokratik bir yol mu izleyeceği henüz belirsizliğini korumaktadır.Editorial Citation Count: 3The Black Sea Region: The Neighbourhood too Close to yet still Far from the European Union(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014) Acikmese Akgul, Sinem; Triantaphyllou, Dimitrios[Abstract Not Available]Book Part Citation Count: 5Changing dynamics of Turkish foreign and security policies in the Caucasus(Ashgate Publishing Ltd, 2011) Aydın, Mustafa[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation Count: 3Changing Naval Balances In The Eastern Mediterranean: Implications For Turkey(Turkish Policy Quarterly, 2016) Güvenç, Serhat; Egeli, SıtkıThis paper is aimed at providing an assesement of the growing Russian naval strength and assertiveness in the Eastern Mediterranean and its implications for Turkey's place in the regional naval power hierarchy after Moscow's direct involvement in the Syrian conflict in 2015. Although the main focus is on the Eastern Mediterranean the region obviously cannot be decoupled from the Black Sea and to some extent from the Aegean. Therefore this paper argues that the naval power hierarchy in these three regions have both historically influenced and been influenced by developments in others.Article Citation Count: 5Civilizational futures: Clashes or alternative visions in the age of globalization?(Elsevier Science, 2010) Aydın, Mustafa; Özen, ÇınarThis article underlines the existing similarities between Samuel Huntington's civilizational approach hypothesis and the fundamentals of political Islam. The similarity pertains to the argument related to the gradual weakening of nation-states which also constitutes the main theme of the globalization debate. The civilizational approach and political Islam signify new efforts to reach a much larger political community and organization in world politics. Both of them argue that the formation of new political actor(s) is replacing the old nation-states across religious and cultural affinities. The terrorist organization Al-Qaeda is trying to legitimize its political violence by manipulating the weakness of the nation-states and the utopia of the formation of a much more comprehensive political community and political organization through Islam. Huntington's clash of civilizations thesis indirectly provides a base for Al-Qaeda's rhetoric and a certain type of justification for its terror activities since the theory argues for the inevitability of the conflict between civilizations regardless of their political regimes (liberal or totalitarian) with civilizations being determined by their cultural and religious differences a theme that is used by the ideologues of political Islam.

The current state of the Turkish motor vehicle industry stands in contrast to its modest origins which can be traced back to the early years of the Cold War. In the 1950s a private company ventured into the business of assembling Willy's Jeeps in Turkey. The early developmental trajectory of the Turkish automobile manufacturing resembled the experiences of many other countries that resorted to import substitution to reduce foreign currency dependency for automobile imports. However it differed significantly from others in two ways. First it was not undertaken in response to a coordinated government policy but rather as a one-off private initiative. Second it was justified in the context of the Cold War military and strategic requirements. In other words it stands out among its contemporaries in terms of the prominence of military and defense considerations that shaped US and Turkish military views on a private venture during the Cold War. Although the Jeep assembly experience in Turkey ended in failure its products had remained in service in the Turkish Army for nearly 50 years surviving the Cold War and beyond. The experience also left its deep imprint on Turkey's pursuit of an indigenously designed and manufactured automobile.Article Citation Count: 6Computational International Relations What Can Programming, Coding and Internet Research Do for the Discipline?(Dış Politika ve Barış Araştırmaları Merkezi, İhsan Doğramacı Barış Vakfı, 2019) Ünver, Hamid AkınComputational Social Science emerged as a highly technical and popular discipline in the last few years, owing to the substantial advances in communication technology and daily production of vast quantities of personal data. As per capita data production significantly increased in the last decade, both in terms of its size (bytes) as well as its detail (heartrate monitors, internet-connected appliances, smartphones), social scientists’ ability to extract meaningful social, political and demographic information from digital data also increased. A vast methodological gap exists in ‘computational international relations’, which refers to the use of one or a combination of tools such as data mining, natural language processing, automated text analysis, web scraping, geospatial analysis and machine learning to provide larger and better organized data to test more advanced theories of IR. After providing an overview of the potentials of computational IR and how an IR scholar can establish technical proficiency in computer science (such as starting with Python, R, QGis, ArcGis or Github), this paper will focus on some of the author’s works in providing an idea for IR students on how to think about computational IR. The paper argues that computational methods transcend the methodological schism between qualitative and quantitative approaches and form a solid foundation in building truly multi-method research design.Article Citation Count: 0Contending Agendas For The Black Sea Region: A Turkish Alternative(Genelkurmay ATASE SAREM Başkanlığı, 2010) Aydın, MustafaSoğuk Savaşın sona ermesi yüzlerce yıl çok sayıda çatışmaya tanıklık etmiş olan Karadeniz havzasında çok taraflı iş birliğine dayalı yeni bir siyasi çerçevenin gelişmesini mümkün kıldı. Avrasya’nın ortasındaki stratejik konumu nedeniyle geniş alanları kontrol edebilen Karadeniz coğrafyası Soğuk Savaş sonrasının değişen jeopolitiğinde önemli bir yer işgal etmeye devam etmektedir. Bölgenin kendine özgü jeopolitiği ve stratejik değeri bölge ülkeleri açısından uluslararası ilişkilerinde çeşitli avantajlar sağlamaktaysa da sıklıkla bölgesel ve uluslararası güvenlik ve istikrar için önemli riskleri de içinde barındırmaktadır. Bu çalışma büyük güçlerin (ABD, RF ve AB) son yıllarda bölgeye yönelik artan ilgileri ve özellikle güvenlik arayışlarının bölgeselleşmesinin her zaman olumlu sonuçlar doğurmayabileceği ve çatışmalara yol açabileceğini ileri sürerek; bir alternatif sunması açısından, Karadeniz vizyonunu bu güçlerden farklı olarak, küresel endişelerden ziyade bölgesel arayışlara dayandıran Türkiye’nin politikalarını değerlendirecektir.Article Citation Count: 5Cultural heritage as status seeking: The international politics of Turkey's restoration wave(Sage Publications Ltd, 2020) Yanık, Lerna K.; Subotic, JelenaThis article explores the relationship between cultural heritage politics and international status-seeking. We advance a two-fold typology of status-seeking that explains why states engage in cultural heritage restoration practices at home and abroad. First, cultural heritage restoration can be an easy way to signal state respect of its multicultural past while providing cover for continuing anti-multicultural policies of the present. States with uncertain, challenged, or liminal international status use cultural heritage projects as a 'standard of civilization' of democracy, displaying themselves on the international stage as worthy of status and respect. Cultural heritage here is used as a strategy for international status affirmation. Second, states may engage in cultural heritage restoration beyond their borders, supporting or directly managing renovation of these sites in order to expand their imagined national cultural, political, and economic domain. Cultural heritage restoration projects here serve as a backdrop for powerful international economic alliances that can be used for status substitution-replacing one status-generating benchmark of 'standard of civilization' with another-economic prosperity. We illustrate these arguments with two recent cases of cultural heritage restoration that involve Turkey: the 'Akdamar' Church in Van, Turkey and the Tomb of Gul Baba in Budapest, Hungary.Article Citation Count: 9Determinants of Currency Crises in Turkey Some Empirical Evidence(M.E Sharpe Inc., 2010) Karabulut, Gökhan; Bilgin, Mehmet Hüseyin; Danisoglu, Ayse CelikelCurrency crises have become a serious threat for developing countries especially since the financial deregulation process and the collapse of the Bretton Woods system. In the past two decades Turkey has experienced two major currency crises. This study aims to predict the determinants of currency crises in Turkey by using an ordered probit model. According to the results short-term debt/GDP real exchange rate deposit interest rates foreign exchange reserves/imports and credit/deposit variables are all significant in explaining currency crises in Turkey.Other Citation Count: 0Dış Siyaseti ve Askerî Stratejileriyle ikinci dünya Savaşı Türkiye si İlhan TEKELİ ve Selim İLKİN 1.

Evidence from Asia-Pacific currencies(Bilgesel Yayincilik San & Tic Ltd, 2011) Su, Yongyang; Lau, Chi Keung Marco; Bilgin, Mehmet HüseyinUsing the U.S. dollar exchange rate return series of three major Asia-Pacific currencies this paper investigates the empirical relevance of structural breaks in exchange rate volatilities. We find significant evidence of structural breaks in the unconditional variances of all three exchange rate returns implying unstable GARCH processes for these exchange rates. Various methods of accommodating structural breaks were considered when forecasting daily exchange rate volatility using GARCH models. In sharp contrast to previous evidence from currencies of developed countries accommodating structural breaks however did not improve out-of-sample forecasts of exchange rate volatility i.e. a simple GARCH(11) with expanding window model performed best in forecasting exchange rate volatilities in these emerging markets.
