Turkey and the Major Powers in the Eastern Mediterranean Crisis from the 2010s to the 2020s
This study investigates the recent Mediterranean disputes involving Turkey with respect to the major powers of the European Union (EU), United States (US), Russia and China. The author maintains that Turkey’s position has been determined by its own interests in the region as informed by its relations with the major powers, their vested interests in the disputes, Turkey’s maritime foreign policy ideology ( Mavi Vatan ), its economic and military c…
Is a Strategic Partnership Between Turkey and Russia Feasible at the Expense of Turkey’s Relations with the EU and Nato
The article mainly contends that since the real and expected benefits from the European Union (EU) and NATO were not delivered sufficiently from Turkey’s perspective, Turkey looked for alternatives and collaborated with Russia more intensely in recent years. Turkey’s cooperation with Russia was also facilitated by several global, political, economic, conjectural, security-related, and individual-level factors. Another argument of the study is tha…
Parliamentary elections in Turkey
Turkey held two consecutive parliamentary elections in an interval of five months that produced entirely different results. The June 7 elections saw the Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AKP) lose its parliamentary majority and the rise of the Halkların Demokratik Partisi (HDP) as a game-changer. Following the collapse of coalition talks, the subsequent snap elections held on November 1, 2015 took place under a dramatically different context, being mar…
The Alevi Opening of the AKP Government in Turkey
In spite of the favorable climate created with the launch of the Alevi Initiative, which aimed at the settlement of the grievances held by the Alevi community, the Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AKP) government's over-cautious approach not to offend the Sunni-Hanefi segments of the electorate has cost them the trust of the Alevi community. Besides, the weak EU political conditionality and the embedded nature of the Sunni-Hanefi interpretation of Isl…
Coup Plots and the Transformation of Civil–Military Relations in Turkey under AKP Rule
This article examines the ongoing transformation of civil–military relations in Turkey under Justice and Development Party (AKP) rule, which was triggered by uncovering of the Ergenekon affair and a series of alleged plots against the AKP government by groups within the armed forces. Legal-constitutional changes, anti-coup trials, increasing civil influence in the military promotions and a dramatic turnaround of public opinion of the military int…
Turkey and the European Union
This paper analyzes the present challenges that Turkey is facing in the accession process as emphasized by the European Commission Progress reports. Firstly, it maintains that the gap in EU-Turkey relations has widened since 2004 due to the fact that the AKP government has devoted its attention to such domestic developments as the double elections, the fight against PKK violence, the preparation of a new constitution, the headscarf issue, and bud…
