  • MAPPING the FAULTLINES: Structural Crisis of the World-System and Turkey” 10Th of May 2012
    ______________________________________________________________________________ Istanbul Şehir University, Center for Modern Turkish Studies & Keele University, School of Politics, International Relations and Philosophy presents a Workshop on “MAPPING THE FAULTLINES: Structural Crisis of the World-System and Turkey” 10th of May 2012 Workshop will be conducted in English Time: May 10, 2011 - Thursday // 14.00-18:00 Venue: Istanbul Şehir University Altunizade Campus 5th Floor Meeting Hall The current global crisis is an expression of the structural changes and deep-rooted contradictions, which have occurred within the global system in the last 30 years. The present crisis has reminded us that we live in a dynamic world where empires and systems come and go according to history’s dictates. It seems that the Bretton Woods system is in eclipse, and the world is moving toward a multi-polar global structure. In the long history of global political economy, crises come and go, as do the focal points around which they form. To understand the dynamics of the current process of change we must also understand the history that gives it volume and reach. The current crisis is destined to bring about fundamental changes in the world. The world will be different when the carnage stops. The crisis will bring irreversible geopolitical consequences. We are not saying that it is all over for the USA. It is still one of the strongest countries in the world. But the reality is that the US economy and the rest of the US-centred economies of the West are fast losing ground. China, India and other significant emerging economies, including Turkey, have been strengthening considerably.
