The Limitations of Turkey's New Foreign Policy Activism in the Caucasian Regional Security Complexity
(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011) İşeri, Emre; Dilek, Oğuz
A panoramic outlook on the present global system shows that the US has been failing to preserve its global preponderance against the rise of new contenders from Asia. Turkey's new foreign policy demeanor under the AKP government reflects this shift of global power from the West to the East leaning on both of these two poles (especially Russia and the US) thereby aims at creating a 'zero-problem' situation with the neighboring Caucasian states. Yet this strategy has not achieved its goal mainly due to the ongoing debates not only between Moscow and Washington but also between Azerbaijan and Armenia in the Caucasian Regional Security Complexity. This work tries to read all these developments by applying insights from the neoclassical realist standing and argues that there are two main hindrances to the plan's success: the dynamics of the current global system and the security complexity of the Caucasus region.

A New Energy Paradigm for Turkey: A Political Risk-Inclusive Cost Analysis for Sustainable Energy
(Elsevier Science, 2011) Oksay, Serhan; İşeri, Emre
Implementing sustainable development policies in order to achieve economic and social development while maintaining adequate environmental protection to minimize the damage inflicted by the constantly increasing world population must be a major priority in the 21st century. While the emerging global debate on potential cost-effective responses has produced potential solutions such as cap and trade systems and/or carbon taxes as part of evolving sustainable energy/environmental policies this kind of intellectual inquiry does not seem to be an issue among Turkish policy-making elites. This is mainly due to their miscalculation that pursuing sustainable energy policies is much more expensive in comparison to the utilization of fossil fuels such as natural gas. Nevertheless the pegged prices of an energy sector dominated by natural gas are illusive as both the political risks and environmental damage have not been incorporated into the current cost calculations. This paper evaluates energy policies through a lens of risk management and takes an alternative approach to calculating energy costs by factoring in political risks. This formulation reveals that the cost of traditional fossil-based energy is in fact more expensive than renewable energy. In addition to being environmentally friendly the paradigm shift towards renewable energy policies would provide Turkey with a significant opportunity to stimulate its economy by being one of the first countries to develop green technologies and as a result this burgeoning sector would prompt job creation as well ; mainly due to the externalities.
