Soft cover. Condition: New. Paperback. Pbo. Roy. 8vo. (23 x 16 cm). In English. 266 p. "The Young Scholars on Turkey (YSOT) program, organized by the SETA Foundation at Washington D.C., completed its first year with an international conference in April 15, 2011. This volume draws on articles submitted by scholars who have presented their work to the Washington D.C. audience as part of the YSOT program. The main idea driving the conception of the program was manifold. First, it aimed to bridge the gap between the academic world and the policy world in discussions on Turkey. Second, the program was intended to contribute to the depth of policy discussions on Turkey specifically in the think tank world by relying on already accumulated academic knowledge. Third, it strove to offer fresh perspectives on Turkey by engaging academics at the beginning of their careers.".…

Paperback. Condition: New. For the last seventy years, experts have tried to define the nature of Turkey's partnership with the US. While Turkish-US relations have always been susceptible to different crises, they enjoyed a brief "golden era" in the 1950s. This book argues that a false nostalgia about that period - when the strategic interests of two countries fully converged - has distorted analyses by scholars and policymakers ever since. To provide a more accurate assessment, this book look at the patterns of crises between the two countries throughout history and how these relate to the current points of tension in Turkish-American relations today. It coins a new conceptual framework to understand the Turkey-US partnership: the "vulnerable partnership". The book outlines the key causes of this vulnerability, showing that for the last 70 years, there have been recurring frictions and faultlines that have been repeated across different political periods. These especially involve the US congress, public opinion, Russia, and crises in the Middle East. Based on journalistic, archival and scholarly sources, the topic of the book is at the intersection foreign policy studies, Middle East politics, the history of Turkish-American relations, and foreign policy making.…

Condition: New. This almanac provides the synopsis of bilateral relations between the US and Turkey during the past fifteen years of Ak Party rule in Turkey, starting with the March 1st crisis. During this period, Ak Party governments have engaged with different US administrations headed by the presidents from different political parties (Bush, Obama and Trump) and different party majorities in the US Congress. The relationship has both undergone very serious crises and witnessed significant level of cooperation. In this almanac, the major summits and main crises that impacted the relations between the two nations are covered. It is of course impossible to cover all of the events and developments in bilateral relations, thus we aimed to be selective while still including the most important moments of the relationship in our coverage in the limited space that we have. We hope this volume can help observers and scholars in the field of US-Turkey relations and contribute to their research. Editors: Translator: 264 pages.…

Condition: New. President Erdogan's statement in March 2024, "neither the world is the old world nor Türkiye is the old Türkiye", encapsulates the essence of the Century of Türkiye vision, which aims to transform Türkiye in accordance with both internal and external requirements. Over the past two decades of AK Party rule, Türkiye has achieved remarkable and enduring progress across its social, cultural, political, and economic spheres. Freed from various forms of tutelage, Türkiye's democracy has grown stronger, supported by well-functioning institutions. The AK Party pledges to further solidify these democratic gains by drafting a new and democratic constitution. Additionally, Türkiye has made significant advancements in its defense technology and capabilities which are essential in the face of threats posed by various terrorist organizations and the security risks from conflicts near its borders. Türkiye's regional and global significance has also grown, as it strives for "a fairer world" where human rights, freedom, and dignity are upheld without discrimination, in line with the principles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. As President Erdogan once declared, Türkiye's "responsibility extends beyond securing our own safety and prosperity. Our strength lies in our resources, actions, and the aid we provide to the afflicted and oppressed worldwide, beginning with our immediate surroundings". As such, the Century of Türkiye addresses a broad spectrum of domestic and international challenges, aiming for a future where Türkiye stands as a democratic, secure, and prosperous nation, exerting a constructive and influential role on the global stage.

Condition: New. What do Spider-Man, Captain America and Superman have to do with U.S. foreign policy? In The American Paradox, Kilic Bugra Kanat delivers a provocative and sweeping narrative that begins not in the halls of Washington, but in the pages of comic bookswhere the American superhero was born, burdened by the same dilemma that has haunted the United States for over a century: Should great power be used to save others, or withheld in the name of restraint? From the isolationist roots of George Washington's Farewell Address to the firestorms of Vietnam, the unilateralism of the Bush Doctrine, and the populist backlash under Donald Trump, this book explores the evolving tension between America's desire to lead and its impulse to retreat. Through vivid storytelling and rigorous analysis, Kanat traces how each modern presidentfrom Bush to Bidenhas struggled to define America's role in a fractured, unpredictable world. At the heart of this work is a striking metaphor: the superhero's moral crisis as a mirror of the nation's geopolitical identity crisis. Like Peter Parker grappling with the consequences of action and inaction, or Superman torn between power and personal sacrifice, the United States oscillates between intervention and wary disengagement. And few symbols capture this better than Captain America, who burst onto the cultural scene punching Hitler before Pearl Harbor and came to embody a wartime moral clarity that American foreign policy would later struggle to sustain.

Condition: New. The AK Party years in Türkiye have been truly transformational. When the party was established in 2001, the country was going through major economic and political crises. Today, under the leadership of President Erdogan, Türkiye is a middle power with serious global ambitions. In the nearly two decades since its inception, the AK Party has been confronted with major domestic and foreign policy challenges. At home, major improvements in religious freedoms, ethnic relations, and cultural rights have been realized. Abroad, Türkiye has emerged as a major power to reckon with in the region while playing a role as a critical partner in global issues. From tackling the Kurdish issue to daring to take on authoritarian regimes during the Arab Spring, the AK Party under President Erdogan's leadership has already left the most significant mark on Turkish modern political history. This volume addresses the domestic and foreign policy transformations in Türkiye that took place over the course of the past two decades under the AK Party.
