| Dersin Amacı | This seminar investigates the determinants, mechanisms, and dynamics of Turkish foreign towards the Middle Eas. It combines three main elements: an investigation of the linkage between domestic factors ? particularly competing conceptions of Turkish identity ? and foreign policy; a chronological survey of Turkish security policy; and in-depth analyses of Turkey?s relations with its primary interlocutors on the regional levels. As such, it is designed as a capstone research project enabling students to test out competing theoretical approaches (neorealism, liberalism, constructivism, post-structuralism etc.) in international relations theory. |
