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.
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".

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.
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.
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.
