    Making Sense of Turkey’s Foreign Policy from the Perspective of Neorealism
    (Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2023) Oguzlu, Tarik; Han, Ahmet Kasim
    This study singles out the impact of systemic and external factors on Turkey's foreign policy from the establishment of the Republic until now. Such an exercise accords with a neorealist interpretation of foreign policy, as the key emphasis is on the impact of the anarchical nature of the external environment, and the influence of the distribution of material power capabilities among states at a given time on foreign policy preferences. This in no way suggests that the internal and individual level of factors holds a secondary place in comparison to systemic/external factors. Yet this article simply highlights the importance of systemic factors, for the main reason that neorealism seems to account for foreign policy choices and behaviors of middle powers more convincingly than in the case of great powers.

    Turkey and the Middle East and North Africa Under the AKP: A Three Level Analysis of Foreign Policy Change
    (2023) Altunisik, Meliha; Martin, Lenore
    This article analyzes the significant foreign policy changes with respect to Turkey’s relations with the Middle East and North Africa region within four relatively distinct periods of the two-decade rule of the Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi - 2002-2010; 2011-2015; 2016-2020; 2020-2022. It analyzes Turkey’s foreign policy changes based on the application of three intersecting levels of analysis: transformations in the regional and global international system, shifts in domestic politics and changes in individual leadership. The article contributes to the foreign policy literature by demonstrating that the continuity in power of a more centralized government does not guarantee continuity in foreign policy as conceptualized in the literature on foreign policy change.
