Abdullah Çakmak The city of Jerusalem, which is considered sacred by Muslims, Christians and Jews, dates back to BC. It has an ancient history dating back to the 4000s. The dominance of states belonging to these religions in Jerusalem for different periods paved the way for the formation of holy places belonging to three religions in the city.
Various zoning activities carried out by the state in Jerusalem, which came under Ottoman rule in 1517, increased the quality of life of the city. One of the breaking points for Jerusalem in this period of domination that lasted until 1917 was the process that started with the French occupation of Egypt in 1798 and continued until the end of the Kavalalı Mehmed Ali Pasha rebellion in 1841. The emergence of the troubles in different parts of the state, such as the Wahhabi and Greek rebellions, in this time period, caused Jerusalem to be indirectly affected by these events, since it hosted different nations together.
In this study, which deals with the policy of the Ottoman Empire in Jerusalem between 1798-1841, the political events and administrative changes, the prominent activities in the approach of the state to Muslims, the rights granted by the state to non-Muslims and the ways of communication of the people with the state are examined.

Salih Yılmaz In this book, 47 analyzes published in Russian on TRT Russian channel in 2018 were brought together and presented in Turkish. In these analyzes, economic and military developments, especially the political events that developed between Turkey and Russia throughout 2018, were interpreted. In this sense, ideas and opinions that will guide the relations between the two countries have been discussed.
This work is a continuation of the book that previously dealt with the developing relations between Russia and Turkey between the years 2016-2017. In this work, the events that developed between the two countries in 2018 were written in Turkish and Russian in the form of analyzes. In order to understand these works, “Is a Turkey-Russia Eurasian Pact Possible?” We recommend that you also read our work.
The military-technological cooperation between Russia and Turkey, apart from the developing economy in Syria, marks a new era for NATO member Turkey as well as for other members. We should say that Turkey, which could not get enough support from its NATO allies in this state, is making efforts to ensure stability in its region, especially its own security, in cooperation with Russia. As long as the harsh policies of the USA against Turkey continue, this cooperation seems to develop further. Considering NATO's concerns regarding this cooperation, it may be possible to establish a new security-based bloc in Eurasia in the future. This process is under the initiative of NATO-USA on the one hand and Turkey on the other.
Turkey's purchase of the S400 air defense system indicates a significant change and opposition not only for Turkey but also for the whole world, which has become dependent on the USA. We hope that such works will be useful in order for these two states and societies to better understand each other.

We have been hearing for a long time: Turkey will be among the top 10 economies in the world. This; a challenging target! How will that be? The main argument of this book is this: If this country wants to enter the top 10, it must increase its human capital; By realizing the Human Development Index (HDI) and Good Governance criteria, education, justice, business ethics, social reconciliation, etc. He should rise by treating himself in matters.
Where do you think we are in HDI?
We, as the young writers of Istanbul Medeniyet University, embarked on a struggle; We did this project to show that young people can enter the system earlier and vaccinate the youth when they are given “result-oriented-not memorized-benefit-generating” training and responsibility.
This book, which chooses the 15-45 age range as its main target audience; does not explore space, but emphasizes the relentless importance of space!
Technological transformation from the perspective of International Relations, soft power analysis, popular culture, global reports, digital media, economic reflections and mental health are the main topics of the book.

In this respect, the seas and sea routes have become an important element of geopolitical competition.
The Mediterranean is a sea of ​​increasing geopolitical and geostrategic importance. It is one of the most important crossroads of international trade. The Mediterranean, which connects the continents of Asia, Europe and Africa, is the focal point of the maritime transport lines stretching to the Indian Ocean and Far East countries via the Suez Canal on the one hand, and to the Atlantic and North and South American countries via the Strait of Gibraltar on the other hand.
The Mediterranean's position in terms of energy is increasing the power race and geoeconomic competition on the world scale over the Mediterranean.
The Mediterranean gives a new dimension and a new orientation to Euro-Atlantic security, and due to its geopolitical position, it directly affects the security dynamics of European, Middle Eastern, North African and Far Eastern countries.
In our country, the necessity of preparing a multidimensional and rich research work on the Mediterranean and presenting it to the service of science has emerged.
The work named Mediterranean Geopolitics has been prepared with the idea of ​​clarifying current issues related to the Mediterranean, determining new orientations and approaches for the future, and adding depth and richness to the field of science.

Bülent Karaatlı The Middle East and North Africa region, which has attracted the attention of the whole world throughout history, has started to take place as one of the most discussed agenda items in the international arena with the start of the process called "Arab Spring". The events in North Africa and the Middle East, known as the "Arab Spring", started in Tunisia and subsequently spread to Egypt, Algeria, Morocco, Libya, Yemen, Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Oman, Syria and Kuwait. Events have evolved in a different direction in each country as a result of the peculiarities of countries such as social culture, political background, experience and institutional structure, and the process has been experienced differently in each country.
In Tunisia, as a result of events where less violence and death were experienced compared to other countries, President Ben Ali had to leave the administration, a temporary government was established, the Constituent Assembly elections were held, and these elections went down in history as the first free and fair elections held in the countries involved in this process. The Constitutional Commission, which was established under the leadership of the Constituent Assembly, completed the Constitution that appeals to all segments of the country and was prepared by taking lessons from past experiences. Subsequently, Tunisia chose the new Prime Minister and President according to this constitution, setting an example for the countries in the region and showing its difference from other countries.
The reforms made as a result of mutual relations with the Ottomans and France in the historical process, and the features such as an educated and strong middle class, unique social and political culture, experience and institutional structure have had a great impact on Tunisia's gaining all this difference and success.

A. Murat Ağdemir It is important to realize that the thoughts of individuals who direct the policies of states have important consequences. While explaining these relations, it is necessary to try to grasp the role played by history, perceptions and value judgments, and to approach the explanations in which impersonal forces such as structure and state dominate from a human perspective.
The Palestinian Question has been handled from very different perspectives by different academics, writers and commentators. These different perspectives can lead people to new questions and research on the subject under discussion. In this book, it is aimed to present a different point of view to the readers by considering the Palestinian Question, in which the land is divided, in terms of the Jewish leaders' perspective, value judgments, beliefs and attitudes.

In an international order dominated by hostility, distrust and negative stereotypes, dialogues across borders are a positive response. The conflict between Greece and Turkey is considered one of the most complex conflicts in Europe, and possibly beyond. For decades, the bilateral strife has repeatedly led insecurity as well as periodic violence and war. Also, in this part of the world, the past weighs heavily on the present. What happened long ago determines what happens today and may stand in the way of a peaceful future, or even in imagining one. Conflicts bedevil the bilateral relationship on multiple fronts. As in other cross-border rivalries, we are witnesses to dynamic developments as new contentious issues have emerged to complicate the agenda.
With an eye on what the two sides can do together; this book presents original research co-written by at least one Greek and one Turkish scholar with the objective to provide policy recommendations that could help in bridging the gaps to enhance Greek-Turkish dialogue and cooperation.

Abdürreşit Celil Karluk According to Fei Xiaotong, Chineseness is actually like a snowball. It is the process of social and cultural assimilation of non-Chinese foreigners within its political borders, which grows by clinging to the foreigners around it, with Huaxia at its core. The Chinese, who keep the Chineseness alive, have always kept themselves separate and superior to the others.
China, sociologically, can be generally divided into cultural China and political China. Cultural China is a homogeneous reality in which all the elements that make up Chineseness are completely dominated, and there is essentially no difference. Political China, on the other hand, is the regions inhabited by non-Chinese peoples who are later included in China's hegemony, who are dependent or indirectly governed by China. In Chinese history, cultural China always wants to swallow political China, and for this, it develops a strategy and implements it persistently. When political China becomes cultural China, a political China is reconstructed. Political China was often built by foreigners who dominated China.
This study deals with Chineseness and the strategies applied in the process of governing with the others in the order in which Chinese is dominant, and the social and cultural integration processes of non-Chinese peoples in Chineseness from a sociological perspective. Related topics covered; It will help to understand the inhumane practices of the CCP power in East Turkestan, Tibet and Hong Kong, as well as the Chineseization of religions, the prohibition of foreign resources in educational institutions, and Chinese-specific situations such as debt diplomacy and credit trapping.

Hüsmen Akdeniz Turkish-American relations have a history approaching a quarter of a millennium. The history of bilateral relations covers a period from a collapsed great power and a rising great power, in other words “the Phoenix to the descent”, and the American eagle taking off to take the place of the Roman Empire, to the present day. For this reason, the most important feature of relations is the phenomenon of inequality in power.
On the one hand, this book proposes a statistical analysis-supported method for strategies and policies to be applied in relationships in different power categories, and presents a model to IR professionals and students. Thus, it is to shed light on the strategies and policies that unequal powers can implement against each other.
On the other hand, the book hopes to be useful to all readers by reminding the brief history of the events, facts, crises, strategies and policies implemented in Turkish-American relations from the first establishment of diplomatic relations to the present, and by giving clues about the analysis of bilateral relations, which gradually turned into a chess game.
Prof. dr. In the words of Şükrü Sina Gürel, the book aims not only to evaluate Turkish-American relations on the basis of "power and interest", but also to present a theoretical analysis of the relationship model between a "global dominant power" and a "middle power country".

Orhan Battır Migration movements with increasing speed and visibility in the modern period; While it was a socio-demographic phenomenon at the action level, it was first included in the political field and then securitized and became a high policy issue. In the current century, migration has already become one of the top priorities of the international community's agenda, which directly affects the functioning of the international system and shapes the interaction between system actors. It is seen that the academic interest in the issue of migration has increased gradually due to the fact that it has come to the fore with its problematic aspects in recent years.
This work deals with the fact that people leave their places of residence and settle in other places, albeit for very different reasons, as a state of nature in the historical process. Therefore, in the work; There are evaluations that seeing the phenomenon of immigration as a "crime" that must be prevented and accordingly looking at immigrants as "criminal" consists of a fundamental illusion. Of course, while doing this, care is taken not to make the mistake of ignoring or ignoring problems based on immigration.

For all countries using this waterway, the Aegean Sea maintains its geopolitical and geostrategic importance. Since it is a semi-enclosed sea, it is important to produce and monitor stability-oriented policies in the Aegean Sea. In this way, the Aegean Sea's setting an example for peace and stability and its continuation will contribute greatly to peace in the region and the world. In this period where maritime security and stability gain more importance than ever before establishing and maintaining mutual trust between riparian countries in the Aegean Sea is possible if the parties comply with the provisions of the International Agreement and the Convention.

Ömer Lütfi Taşcıoğlu La Première Guerre mondiale était une compétition pour diviser le pillage des terres ottomanes entre les grandes puissances de l'époque. Les attaques impérialistes sont venues des deux côtés. La défense de l’État (ottoman) sur le front oriental, n’a rien de différent de sa défense sur la péninsule de Gallipoli à l’ouest, en termes de sécurité de tous les peuples du pays.
Ensuite, le gouvernement n'a pas eu d'autre choix que de mettre en pratique la pratique de la déportation pour éviter la rébellion, à savoir: la trahison arménienne, qui est aujourd'hui généralement symbolisé par la date du 24 avril 1915, qui devient également une veille du "débarquement britannique à Gallipoli".
Le décret de réinstallation émis par le gouvernement ottoman visait à empêcher les résidents locaux de soutenir, de renforcer et d'inciter les mouvements arméniens agressifs, qui se battaient volontiers pour l'armée adversaire (russe) contre leur propre pays, étant eux-mêmes et aux citoyens de l'Empire ottoman. En plus de cela, sous la forme de gangs armés organisés, ils assassinaient des innocents turcs et / ou musulmans de la région.
Cette décision de réinstallation temporaire a également résolu d'autres problèmes au sein des lignes de communication logistique de l'armée et des autres lignes d'approvisionnement, qui ont été empêchés par ces gangs.
Des gangs arméniens poignardaient l'armée ottomane dans le dos, et des mutinés arméniens causaient encore d'autres maux tels que torturer et massacrer honteusement des femmes, des personnes âgées et des enfants dans les maisons turco-musulmanes laissées par les jeunes de la maison, ceux qui étaient alors occupés à mener des batailles féroces sur les lignes de front d'une guerre féroce, ce que ces gangs faisaient était exactement un "nettoyage ethnique", que dans ces circonstances, la décision de l'État était une précaution obligatoire de la situation de guerre stratégique.

Ömer Lütfi Taşcıoğlu La Primera Guerra Mundial fue una competición de repartimiento el saqueo de tierras otomanas entre las grandes potencias de la época. Los asaltos imperialistas venían por ambos lados. La defensa del Estado (Otomano) en el 'frente oriental' no era nada diferente de su defensa en la Península de Gallipoli en el occidente, en términos de la seguridad de todos los pueblos del país.
Entonces el gobierno no tenía más remedio que poner en vigor la práctica de deportación para evitar la rebelión, i.e: la traición, armenia, la que hoy suele ser simbolizada por la fecha del 24 de abril de 1915, el que también pasa a ser un día antes del 'desembarco británico en Gallipoli'.
El decreto de reubicación emitido por el Gobierno Otomano tenía la intención de impedir a los residentes locales apoyar, reforzar e instigar a los agresivos movimientos armenios, quienes voluntariamente estaban luchando por el ejército adversario (ruso) en contra a su propio país, siendo ellos mismos ya los ciudadanos del Imperio Otomano. Además de esto, en forma de unas bandas armadas que organizaban, estaban asesinando a las inocentes gentes turcas y/o musulmanas de la zona.
Esta decisión de recolocación temporaria resolvió también unos otros problemas dentro de las líneas de comunicación logísticas del ejército y las otras líneas de suministro, las que se impedían por éstas bandas.
Las pandillas armenias estaban apuñalando al ejército otomano por la espalda y los mutinos armenios causaban aun otros males como que torturaban y masacraban vergonzosamente a las mujeres, a los ancianos y a los niños en las casas turcas/musulmanes dejadas atras por los jóvenes de la casa, quienes entonces estaban ocupados luchando feroces batallas en las líneas del frente de una feroz guerra, lo que hacian aquellas bandas era exactamente una “limpieza étnica”, que en estas circunstancias, la decisión del estado era una precaución obligatoria del la situación estratégica bélica.

Neşe Kemiksiz, Özkan Gönül, Serdar Çukur, Suat Taşkesen, Ünal Doğan, Volkan Göçoğlu, Yeşim Demir, Yunus Karaağaç According to the research; Today, approximately 4.5 billion people use the internet, 5.2 billion people use mobile phones and an average of 6 hours and 43 minutes a day users spend time on the Internet. This shows that technology has permeated every aspect of life.
As a result of the rapid increase in the use of technology, individuals, business world and government institutions store or transfer their critical intelligence, economic and personal information through these technology tools. It is becoming more and more impossible for people to participate or contribute to business life without smartphone technologies. Social media applications have now become a very important information strategy product within the scope of cheap, flexible, effortless and crypto features. However, with the development of technology, security concerns have emerged in information systems depending on globalization. From the theft of personal data to the use of the Internet and social media as a propaganda tool by terrorist organizations, negative aspects that affect individuals and states have emerged.
In this book, different topics such as cyber security, social media, nuclear and military technology, terrorism and technology relationship, artificial intelligence technologies, urban security and technology, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) technologies, border security and technology are discussed and basically the relationship between technology and security. In this context, how technological progress will change security paradigms in the future and how it will affect individuals and states has been revealed.

Şaban Halis Çalış Despite its standing in world politics, there is still a paucity of academic publications concerning Turkish foreign policy. In addition, most of the existing publications prefer only to narrate it historically.
This book takes a step back and critically analyses the factors and actors which affect Turkish foreign policy within a theoretical and conceptual framework as well as a historical setting covering the Kemalist period in particular. In addition, this book presents its subject matter from a broader and longer perspective, taking together both material and ideational phenomena, all the while focussing on the ideas, ideologies and norms which are ignored by many analysts of Turkish politics.
Turkish foreign policy of the past and even up to the present appears to be a product of certain “foundations” that were laid down by the Kemalist leadership and cadres after the establishment of the Turkish Republic. However, this book reviews these foundations comparatively with the Ottoman modernisation period including as well certain detailed references to the classical age of the Empire in order to demonstrate that there are not so much epistemological ruptures between past and present in a broader sense.

Most of developed and developing countries have started international student projects which aim to increase number of international students. Japan also is one of those countries with various projects. Japan provides the MEXT (Monbukagakusho) Scholarship by Japan's central government.
• Why countries invest on international students?
• Would it be a soft power tool for a host country?
• What do international students think about it?
This book focuses on the perspective of the international students:
• What are the motivations for them for choosing Japan?
• What are their career goals?
• How those goals are being evaluated?
• How do they perceive the Japanese government's MEXT scholarship project?

Nuri Salık The Syrian crisis, which broke out in March 2011 and almost caused a global earthquake, has been one of the most pressing issues in Turkish foreign policy for the past 10 years. The Syria policy that Turkey followed during the Arab Spring period caused great debates both at home and abroad from the first day and increased academic interest in Turkey-Syria relations. However, despite this increasing interest recently, it is observed that studies examining the relations between the two countries mostly focus on current developments and miss the historical dynamics of Turkey's Syria policy. This book sheds light on the period of 1960-1980, which has not been discussed in detail in the literature on Turkey-Syria relations until now. In the book, Turkey's policy towards its neighbor Syria in the 1960s and 1970s, when it sought new foreign policy, is analyzed based on domestic and foreign archive documents. The book reveals that Turkey-Syria relations, which were overshadowed by the Cold War rivalry in the 1950s and PKK terrorism in the post-1980 period, settled on a clear ground of softening and reconciliation in the period from the 27 May 1960 coup to the 12 September 1980 coup. We hope that this book will be instrumental in carrying out the debates around Turkey-Syria relations on a healthier ground.

Mesut Hakkı Caşın No war can be understood independently of the multi-layered accumulation of historical, political, ethnic, religious, economic, cultural and commercial interests that prepared it.
In this context, this work named World War II; While pursuing to bring to light the intertwined and complex causes of the Second World War that are beyond the visible, it also examines the background of the effect of economic and political crises on the strengthening of totalitarian regimes, together with its intricate causes.
In addition, while reconsidering the causes and consequences of the Second World War, as the bloodiest conflict of the twentieth century, eighty years later, it also sheds light on its complex connection with the problems eighty years later, enabling us to understand the hot and cold war potential of power relations in today's world.
The thousands of documented photographs included in the book, on the other hand, will memorize both the tools and ammunition of the war, as well as the horror and destructiveness of the war, as a documentary film.

Furkan Torlak This study explains the Egyptian leg of the popular uprisings that affected the entire Arab geography in 2011 in the context of revolution theories and civil-military relations. In this context, while examining the critical role of the Egyptian army in the political system, the revolutionary conditions leading to the January 25 Tahrir revolution and the counter-revolutionary conjuncture leading to the July 3 military coup are discussed.
The conceptual framework of the study examined how the phenomenon of revolution developed historically; He conveyed the findings of thinkers who compared different examples of revolution, and discussed the necessary conditions for revolution and counter-revolution. Within the framework of the analysis, the dictatorship was overthrown with the January 25 revolution in Egypt; It has been observed that political and social relations have been formatted in favor of large sections of them within the framework of the new constitution.
On the other hand, the extensions of the old regime, whose interests were damaged by the revolution, started the counter-revolution process; While the revolutionary forces were polarized as secular and Islamist, it was determined that the alliance of the secular sectors with the counter-revolutionary forces gave birth to the July 3 coup.
As a result, after the military coup in Egypt, while the old regime elements were at the center of the political system, the old revolutionary liberal-secular wing was excluded; With the 2014 constitution in which freedoms were restricted, it was seen that the military dictatorship was institutionalized in the country and it was moving towards an unknown future.

Mesut Hakkı Caşın Throughout history, Turkish-Russian relations have been one of the main elements, probably the most important, of the general view of the Eurasian region and the balance of power in this geography. This important rivalry, which started with the relations between the Ottoman Empire and the Russian Tsardom, at first tended to gain the appearance of cooperation after the establishment of the Soviet Union. With the World War II, this time it showed itself with the effect of an ideological separation. After the collapse of the Soviet Union, although there is no direct land border between Turkey and the Russian Federation, the intensity of relations between the parties has not decreased; on the contrary, due to Turkey's relationship with the Caucasus and Central Asian Turkic republics, it has gained even more importance.
There is a need for a better understanding of Russia in our country in order to better understand this new relationship ground, which often emerges as conflict/competition and sometimes as common understanding/cooperation. This academic study in your hand is of a quality that sheds light on our understanding of Russia's present and future, which takes its place in this dilemma from the point of view of Russia. Author Prof. Dr. In his work, Mesut Hakkı Caşın also uses the historical background and brief flashbacks necessary for a better understanding of this period, while trying to analyze the situation in the Russian Federation that emerged after Vladimir Putin became President. With these features, the study is a useful contribution to the efforts we feel lacking regarding Russia.

Yıldırım Deniz The Middle East, which has been a center of attraction in every period of history due to its rich oil and natural gas deposits and being the center of monotheistic religions, is an unfortunate geography that has witnessed conflicts and wars in every period as a natural consequence of these characteristics. Factors such as power or prosperity revealed by classical approaches are insufficient to explain the events in international relations in the Middle East. Therefore, the internal dynamics of the region should be known very well. One of the most important internal dynamics in explaining the events in the region is the understanding of "Salaf" religion. This book explains the reasons for the events and conflicts in the Middle East by giving answers to questions such as what Salafism is, how it emerged, what historical processes it has reached today, what its types are, how it affects the people living in the region, events and international relations.

Mustafa Eravcı, Kadir Ertaç Çelik, Mehmet Seyfettin Erol, Mücahide Nihal Engel, Naime Yüksel Kayaçağlayan, Nuri Salık, Sayim Türkman, Serpil Güdül Throughout history, the Middle East has never lost its charm due to its strategic location and the political and economic expectations of global powers. The Middle East, which experienced a stable period during the rule of the Ottoman Empire (1517-1917), first came under the control of England and France with the disintegration of the Ottoman Empire at the end of the First World War, and then the USSR and the USA during the "Cold War" Period. It has been a field of contention in the political and military fields of the United States.
This second book, which was prepared as a continuation of the previous book "Middle East Perspective I", sheds light on the history of the Middle East, again with the contributions of many academicians, on the political, military and economic events experienced by the Middle East countries in the historical process.

Hakkı Uygur, M. Tahir Kılavuz, Mehmet Evkuran, Mehmet Toprak, Oğuzhan İrgüren, Ramazan Yıldırım, Süleyman Güder Although it is noteworthy that one of the cornerstones necessary to understand and make sense of the Middle East after the 2011 Arab uprisings is the relationship between politics and religion in the region, the importance of the issue is increasing day by day. As academics in Turkey, we tried to deal with the developments in the region and the background of the events.
As part of the ILEM Islamic Political Thought Project, we held a series of seminars under the heading "Politics and Religion in the Middle East". Our aim was to try to understand the politics-religion relationship in the region through different religious and political schools. In 2017, we tried to deal with issues in a different spectrum, from the origins of the two main currents in the region, $ii and Sunni political thoughts, to today's political reflections. Of course, the issues we deal with are neither limited to the seminars nor as they appear in the book; has much broader extensions. Nevertheless, we tried to produce a comprehensive and representative work.

Salih Yılmaz At the beginning of the 21st century, the Russian Federation met the strategy expressed as the “Putin Doctrine”. Accordingly, the West is no longer a reliable partner of Russia. The sovereignty of the post-Soviet countries is under the protection of Russia. The Russian World and Russian Orthodoxy have become strong.
Today, the term “Russia's Way” has become almost acceptable all over the world. For this reason, Russia began to be recognized as a society and state that did not accept or did not want to accept the philosophy of "the way of common reason". There is not yet an effective power that can oppose this 'special' situation for Russia, both in domestic and foreign policy. Russian poet and diplomat Fyodor Ivanovich Tyutchev says in a famous four-line poem:
Russia is incomprehensible
Not measured by a generally accepted cubit
It has a unique state of development.
Russia is only believed and obeyed.
These lines are the most common expressions to describe Russia. According to Tyutchev, if we want to understand Russia, it is necessary to “believe in it”. It is necessary to know the history, foreign policy and applied security doctrines in order to understand the "savior" role that the Russians have assigned to themselves from history.
I'm sure you can find answers to some of these questions when you read this book. In the book, the change and transformation of Russia in the Putin Era and the general reasons for these policies are explained. In addition to this book, “Is a Russia & Turkey Eurasian Pact Possible?” I also recommend you to read our book.
I believe that this book will be a useful work for experts, diplomats and students working in the fields of "Security Studies", "Political Science and International Relations" and "History" apart from the general reader.
I wish you good reading.

Çağla Mavruk Cavlak After the Cold War, International Relations has seen a resurgence of interest in the study of regional powers. Scholars have been paying increasing attention to regional powers as important actors in world politics and studying their foreign policy, but few if any studies have discussed the behaviors of regional power comprehensively and comparatively. The purpose of this book is to gain a better understanding of regional power foreign policy strategies and behaviors by analyzing them comprehensively and comparatively. Unlike previous studies on cooperation and conflict within regions, this study focuses on the reasons for the strategic tendencies and motivations of regional hegemons and great powers and their effects on regional cooperation and conflict. Moreover, departing from Hegemonic Stability Theory, this book also aims to explore similarities and differences between regional and global hegemonic foreign policy strategies.

Ferhat Tekin Territorial boundaries were seen and studied as the subject of the discipline of geography and international relations until the early 1990s within the tradition of social science. From its emergence as a science until the 1990s, sociology did not take an interest in or ignore borders. However, both the territorial borders and almost every discourse, symbol and practice related to them are directly or indirectly related to the society. Because in the modern sense, borders are coded as sociopolitical spaces where society begins on one side and ends on the other. In other words, modern society is built in relation to both land (territory) and borders more than ever before. Almost all territorial borders impose a sense of national culture and identity on their citizens. In this respect, borders are drawn in people's minds as much as they are marked on the ground. Sometimes the boundaries drawn on the land may not have an exact correspondence in people's minds or cultures. In this case, territorial boundaries can be largely ineffective but also injurious. In any case, life and culture at the border; It can lead to passivity, inhibition, and many other interesting forms of sociological relationships.
In this book, the border is discussed from a sociological perspective, on the one hand, what it means in terms of nation-state, national homogeneity and culture and how it functions, on the other hand, how the border is perceived by border people and border communities, and how it plays a role in shaping the border culture.

The world and humanity, succumbing to time, confirm this promise by living it every second. The impossibility of returning a second ago creates an environment that is constantly changing and transforming in international politics, as in many other fields. Terrorism, like everything else in international politics, is changing. Especially the September 11 attacks created a catalyst effect in the change and transformation of terrorism in the world and created a new beginning.
While political violence refers to the violent operation of politics through society or the state, radicalism (fundamentalism) refers to the tendency to make fundamental changes in science, religion and politics. This book deals with terrorism, political violence and radicalization. This book, which has been prepared with a long effort and with a staff of academicians who are experts in their fields, is aimed to appeal to students, academics, security forces and the general reader who is interested in the subject.

Dilek Canyurt Security studies have an important position in the discipline of International Relations. Among them, the work of the Copenhagen School has contributed to the literature significantly. One of the most prominent theories of the Copenhagen School is the issue of securitization and societal security. Securitization is the process of seeing any issue that causes security concerns as a threat, through speech acts and it occurs at the end of the process. On the other hand, societal security is a security threat on the identity of the society. The key theme for societal security is the identity. If a society thinks that a subject poses a threat to its own identity, societal securitization occurs. One of the most suitable topics for societal securitization is the issue of immigrants. In this book, the issue of Syrian refugees in Turkey was analyzed by content analysis of the speeches of the parliamentarians in the Turkish Grand National Assembly, and the tweets that were posted on Twitter. While doing this, both these two research universes were compared and the development of the subject over the years was examined from the perspective of societal securitization. This book also addresses the various dilemmas and security dilemmas that contribute to this process.

İbrahim Karataş This book analyzes the role of soft power in Qatar's foreign policy. Although Qatar is a small state, it could ensure its sovereignty and security through its soft power instruments. Thanks to hydrocarbon revenues, the Sheikhdom could become a regional actor through its assertive foreign policy, established one of the biggest media companies, namely Al Jazeera TV network, made new friends by foreign aid and overseas investments, could win the bid for hosting FIFA 2022 World Cup, and so on. In addition, personal efforts of incumbent Emir Tamim Al-Thani, former Emir Hamad Bin Khalifa and his wife Sheikha Moza have shown how soft power of individuals can change the destiny of a country. The book analyzes Qatar for the concept of soft power since the small country is one of the most successful countries wielding soft power. It also lays down the author's theories about the concept, which he tries to include to the literature.

Ahmet Hüsrev Çelik, Bora Bayraktar, Erdem Eren, İbrahim Karataş, Mustafa Atatorun, Mustafa Öztop, Şahin Çaylı This book analyzes Turkey's fight with terrorism, overseas bases and its efforts to produce indigenous weapons. Threats to Turkey have changed and transformed in the last two decades. Besides, struggling with the PKK terrorist organization, the Arab Spring led to the emergence of new existential threats such as ISIS, another terrorist organization, PKK's Syria branch YPG, and waves of migration, originating mainly from Syria. In addition, Turkey incurred a failed military coup perpetrated by FETO (Fetullahist Terrorist Organization) in 2016. Thus, it had to fight PKK, YPG (SDF), ISIS and FETO simultaneously until recent times. On the other hand, Turkey accelerated the production of indigenous weapons from early 2000s onward. As of 2021, more than 70% of Turkish army's military equipment is supplied by local defense companies. Relying on its economy, active foreign policy and advanced weapons, the Turkish state also began to construct military bases in various countries and got involved in clashes.

Nurullah Çetin Iraq and Syria were formerly Turkish homelands. Iraqi and Syrian Turkmen are a continuation and relative of the Turks of Turkey. Turks in Turkmeneli, which is the name of the ancient Turkish homelands in Iraq and Syria today, are in danger of extinction under the persecution of ISIS and Barzani peshmerga. Today, Turkish villages and cities in Turkmeneli are evacuated and occupied by ISIS and the peshmerga. Turkey must protect the Iraqi and Syrian Turkmen in order to preserve its existence.

Eray Alım In this book, an analysis of the Ukraine Crisis has been carried out with a focus on Russia. While explaining the policy followed by Russia during the crisis, it was thought that a conceptual/theoretical framework regarding the specific characteristics of great power politics at the regional level was necessary. The basic assumptions of the Aggressive Realist theory were used while explaining the behavior pattern of the great powers in the context of regional security or close geography sensitivity. By making use of the process tracking method, Russia's policy during the Ukraine Crisis was examined in two parts. Firstly, the Ukraine Crisis was discussed in the context of social and political tensions in Ukraine. With the discussions presented here, it has been tried to explain the exit process of the crisis. Russia's annexation of Crimea and its support for the armed separatist movement that emerged in eastern Ukraine were the issues discussed in the second phase of the crisis.
It is a fact that enough weight is not given to the Ukraine Crisis in the field of international relations in Turkey. Although this crisis, which started in 2013, was initially shown to be related to the heat of the developments, this interest gradually decreased with the advancing time. This is an important reason why the Ukraine Crisis is on its way to becoming a frozen problem. As a matter of fact, with the awareness of this, this book focuses on the intense period of the crisis between 2014 and 2016. Despite everything, the Ukraine Crisis is an event that should not fall into the background as a geopolitical tension that directly or directly affects regions such as Europe, the Black Sea and the Caucasus. Based on the importance of this event, this book aims to offer a comprehensive perspective to readers who are interested in the Ukraine Crisis by blending current-political and theoretical perspectives.

Emete Gözügüzelli Whoever dominates the sea, dominates the world”.
Barbaros Hayreddin Pasha (1478-1546)

Human history is unthinkable without seas and oceans. The oceans or seas are at the heart of strategies for world domination. Moreover, they are areas that affect the destinies of states.
The law of the sea, which is important for the grand strategies of states, has come to a position that makes its importance felt in the world today with its increasing importance as a part of international public law over the last 20 years. The increasing importance of the law of the sea is mostly due to the fact that tensions arise after the overlapping demands of the coastal states, which sometimes reach the brink of war.
Turkey's right to determine its own maritime jurisdiction areas and to claim its sovereign rights in the Mediterranean, the Sea of ​​Islands or the Black Sea, as elsewhere in the world, derives entirely from the customary law formed by the law of the sea. The problems in the Mediterranean are also seen more clearly with the attitudes of countries such as Greece, which ignore the principles of maritime law.
This work has been written to contribute to the studies carried out in order to advance the struggle in Turkish maritime jurisdictions on a scientific basis. The public law dimension of Turkish maritime jurisdictions is critical and of primary importance in foreign policy.
With the hope that everyone who is interested will read this work, which is the beginning of the steps to be taken regarding the establishment of the legal and technical regime, with excitement and curiosity...

Haluk Karadağ "Public diplomacy", which is an argument that is frequently used by states in the international arena but cannot be adequately conceptualized and explained in detail all over the world, still cannot be defined clearly. It is for this reason that the concept in question and the concept of soft power are used intertwined. It can be clearly stated that the exchange of views between the author and Mr. Joseph S. Nye, who introduced the concept of "soft power" during the writing of the book, has a valuable place in distinguishing the concepts of public diplomacy and soft power. The work, which is based on this distinction, has tried to put the conceptual discussion on a certain ground with the examples it contains.
In short, public diplomacy can be expressed as a technique applied in the field of foreign policy. The work titled “A New Dimension of Public Diplomacy in International Relations”, which deals with the study of explaining and making sense of public diplomacy from a methodological and broad perspective, deals with an application of public diplomacy in international relations.
Hoping that the work will be useful not only for those who do academic studies in the field of international relations, but also for everyone who is interested in foreign policy.

Although the phenomenon of migration is as old as the history of humanity, the prominence and discussion of the issue of migration in international politics II. It corresponds to the aftermath of World War II. Therefore, the phenomenon of migration, which has begun to be studied on an academic basis in "modern" times, has led to the formation of a literature in this field and to discussions that have become more and more intense over time.
Within the scope of the book, the events, issues that constitute the source of the popularization of migration and the attitude of the international community on the basis of the relevant period are discussed, especially with the help of international relations, political science, international law, sociology, visual arts and human rights perspectives. In the chapters of the book, the tensions and relations between the host community and the migrating population were analyzed through different titles.
