Perspectives on Turkey's Multi-Regional Role in the 21st Century
About this book
This book dwells upon the various aspects of the Turkish foreign policy in the different regions of the world, especially with the dawn of the twenty-first century. Turkey has attracted international attention due to a marked transformation in the country's domestic and external realms, which in turn, has led to an increased activism in its foreign policy actions. Particularly, Turkey's economic rise has fuelled the country's ambition and quest for a more significant role in international affairs. These transformations have come about with the ascendance of the Adalet ve Kalk?nma Partisi (AKP) [or Justice & Development Party (JDP)] to power in 2002. Turkey, under the AKP, moved towards a 'new' direction in the foreign policy and consequently endeavoured to play a larger role in West Asia (Middle East), the Balkans, southern Mediterranean, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Africa and Asia. The country has emerged as a multi-regional player having stakes and tractions on a range of issues in these regions. The several discernible aspects of Turkey's involvement are dealt with in the contributions to this volume.
