Sommario/riassunto

This book covers selected topics on contemporary Turkish Foreign Policy to understand and critically analyze the ideas, discourses, actors, processes and structures in the foreign policymaking. It provides the readers with a compilation of chapters on the critical analysis of Turkey's changing positionality and foreign policy identity. In doing so, it draws on the tools and perspectives offered by the critical theories and approaches in International Relations and relevant disciplines. Most of the chapters included in this project deal with the dramatic metamorphoses that took place in Turkish Foreign Policy during the period when the Justice and Development Party ruled and their ongoing consequences. Birsen Erdoğan is Lecturer of International Relations at the Faculty of Law, Maastricht University, The Netherlands. Fulya Hisarlıoğlu is Postdoctoral Researcher in the Political Science and Public Administration Departmentat Kadir Has University, Turkey. .
