Description
Book SynopsisThe fading of the post-WWII order called for Turkey to take on a new role in this new multi-centered and multipolar era with new players emerging from different regions across the globe. The new enterprising and humanitarian foreign policy is an effort to locate Turkey better in the 21st global politics. While the literature on principles of Turkish foreign policy is abundant, the actual mechanisms by which these principles are implemented in practice are still ambiguous to most scholars and foreign policy practitioners especially within the country's newly developed Turkish foreign policy framework. This edited volume directs to shed light on this little-explored aspect of Turkish foreign policy. By critically analyzing several cases from different geographical locations, this volume explains why Turkey developed a new foreign policy framework, and by which mechanisms this new foreign policy framework has been implemented around the world. This volume also critically explores how the new Turkish foreign policy framework customizes its tools and capacities in various international regions around the world.
Trade ReviewAs an analysis of a pendulous pivot between the east and west, this book extensively examines Turkish foreign policy in the last decade focusing on the risks, opportunities, and dilemmas of a mid-power that stands in the middle of three continents. A must-have for Foreign Policy Analysis and above all for Turkish Foreign Policy Studies.
