As it is mostly placed in the Non-Western IR category, Turkish IR is an interesting case in that it reveals the temporal changes of theoretical debates in IR and their local resonance from the purview of a geography that is jammed between the West and the rest. For this reason, this paper examines the literature on the Turkish School of IR (if there is any) and draws some conclusions regarding its current state. This research first utilizes the Teaching, Research, and International Policy (TRIP) surveys conducted by the International Relations Council of Turkey (IRCT) between 2007 and 2018. More extensively, the top 20 journals categorized under Google Scholar's Diplomacy and International Relations list are coded based on their titles containing Turkey. Articles from the 1922-2021 period are then analyzed considering their authors, abstracts, and keywords. From this analysis, the study finds that studies focusing on Turkey have improved over the years, although there is a need for more theoretical and methodological advancements. As a peripheral country in IR, Turkey is still a subject of study by the center countries.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessInternational-RelationsAcademic ImperialismTurkeyDisciplineMethodologyFacultyInternational-RelationsAcademic ImperialismTurkeyTurkeyDisciplineGlobal IRMethodologyInternational RelationsFacultyNon-Western IRArticleWOS:00101933250000110.20991/allazimuth.13106402-s2.0-85170428604N/AQ1
