Tarık Oğuzlu Abstracts in Turkish 141 V9, N1, January 2020 In This Issue All Azimuth covers a broad range of topics in this issue, ranging from the role and efficacy of the UN to eclectic topics in Turkish foreign policy. The first contribution, by Eric Cox, concerns the role of the UN Human Rights Council’s Universal Periodic Review (UPR). The human rights functions of the UN System are often subject to controversy as critics have questioned the efficacy of basing the human rights review process on the recommendations of peer-states. Since the UPR is conducted by UN member states, it is expected that political favors can be exchanged, resulting in generous reviews for member states under scrutiny. To evaluate this claim, the article tests two hypotheses: a state’s human rights record will not impact the numbers of human rights recommendations it receives as part of the UPR; and a state’s human right record will not affect the percentage of action-oriented recommendations it will receive. Using data from the CIRI Human Rights Dataset to evaluate the human rights performance of states and weighing them against the UPR’s processes in 2014, the article finds that poor human rights performances do indeed correlate with more recommendations to states, thus rejecting hypothesis one. As regards to hypothesis two, the study finds no significant relationship between its human rights performance and the strength of the recommendations it receives. In short, states have great leeway due to the horizontal peer- review process but the UPR is surprisingly relevant and useful for scrutinizing states and recommending relevant corrective measures concerning human rights issues. The second article, by Ali Fisunoğlu, adopts the SIR (Susceptible – Infectious- Recovered) model from epidemiology, arguing that the way political conflicts tend to diffuse from one country to its neighbors by way of refugee flows exemplifies the behavior of infectious diseases. Specifically, the “infected” country becomes rife with political instability and internally displaced people, who may then move into neighboring countries. What makes this article remarkable is its innovative use of a computer simulation to gauge the dynamic interaction and interdependence of several variables, the most important ones being the intensity of conflict (dependent variable) and a state’s relative political capacity (RPC). RPC, defined as a state’s administrative competence as measured by its ability to extract resources from its population, is of paramount importance as it acts like the immune system of a country. The research concludes, therefore, that neighboring states with high-levels of RPC are less susceptible to the deleterious effects of civil war in their neighbors. In the third article, James Scott and Brandy Scott examine the EU’s foreign policy in the 1990-2010 period vis-à-vis its allocation of aid for democracy promotion abroad. Democracy promotion is a unique type of aid wholly distinct from other forms as it does seem to have a positive democratizing effect, but the process of how states allocate such scarce a resource like aid remains undertheorized. This article posits a “democracy-security dilemma” in which states face the choice of promoting an ideational agenda that helps to promote democracy or one that seeks to promote practical political, security, and economic goals. Using a series of random effects, generalized least squares, and Heckman selection models the article tests six hypotheses to investigate the conditions in which EU states are more likely to grant democracy promotion aid. The results show that EU countries often prioritize security and stability goals over democracy promotion ones as evidenced by their comparative reluctance to grant democracy aid to states that are highly authoritarian, politically unstable, or 3 All

  • Genealogy of the Concept of Securitization and Minority Rights
    THE KURD INDUSTRY: UNDERSTANDING COSMOPOLITANISM IN THE TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY by ELÇIN HASKOLLAR A Dissertation submitted to the Graduate School – Newark Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Program in Global Affairs written under the direction of Dr. Stephen Eric Bronner and approved by ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ ________________________________ Newark, New Jersey October 2014 © 2014 Elçin Haskollar ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION The Kurd Industry: Understanding Cosmopolitanism in the Twenty-First Century By ELÇIN HASKOLLAR Dissertation Director: Dr. Stephen Eric Bronner This dissertation is largely concerned with the tension between human rights principles and political realism. It examines the relationship between ethics, politics and power by discussing how Kurdish issues have been shaped by the political landscape of the twenty- first century. It opens up a dialogue on the contested meaning and shape of human rights, and enables a new avenue to think about foreign policy, ethically and politically. It bridges political theory with practice and reveals policy implications for the Middle East as a region. Using the approach of a qualitative, exploratory multiple-case study based on discourse analysis, several Kurdish issues are examined within the context of democratization, minority rights and the politics of exclusion. Data was collected through semi-structured interviews, archival research and participant observation. Data analysis was carried out based on the theoretical framework of critical theory and discourse analysis. Further, a discourse-interpretive paradigm underpins this research based on open coding. Such a method allows this study to combine individual narratives within their particular socio-political, economic and historical setting.

Osmanlı tarım ekonomisinde, üretimi hububat türüne nazaran daha çok emek isteyen ve yetiĢme Ģartları bakımından seçici olan tarım ürünlerinden pamuk, susam, keten, kendir, sumak, isot ve zeytin baĢlıca sınâi bitkileri olarak karĢımıza çıkmaktadır. Diyarbekir Eyaleti’nde Fırat ve Dicle ırmaklarının bulunduğu vadi içerisinde bu nehirleri oluĢturan çay ve dereler sınâi bitkileri için avantaj bir rol üstlenmiĢtir. Eyalet içerisinde Amid, Mardin, Ruha, Harput, Musul sınaî bitkilerinin baĢlıca üretim merkezleri olmuĢtur. Pamuk, dokuma ve giyim sınâinde; keten ve kendir hem dokuma sınaînde hem de gemicilik sektörü için vazgeçilmez maddelerdir. Susamdan çıkarılan tahin çeĢitli tüketim alanlarında kullanılırken, zeytin yağı Osmanlı sabun sınâinin ana maddesini oluĢturmaktadır. Özelde Osmanlı tarım ekonomisi alanında, sınai bitkilerinin tarım ekonomisine olan katkısı üzerine yapılan çalıĢmaların istenilen seviyede olmaması, bu çalıĢmanın kaleme alınmasında etken rol oynamıĢtır.

  • Political and Economic Transition of Ottoman Sovereignty from a Sole Monarch to Numerous Ottoman Elites, 1683–1750S
    Acta Orientalia Academiae Scientiarum Hung. Volume 70 (1), 49 – 90 (2017) DOI: 10.1556/062.2017.70.1.4 POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC TRANSITION OF OTTOMAN SOVEREIGNTY FROM A SOLE MONARCH TO NUMEROUS OTTOMAN ELITES, 1683–1750S BIROL GÜNDOĞDU Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen Historisches Institut, Osteuropäische Geschichte Otto-Behaghel-Str. 10, Haus D Raum 205, 35394 Gießen, Deutschland e-mail: [email protected] The aim of this paper is to reveal the transformation of the Ottoman Empire following the debacles of the second siege of Vienna in 1683. The failures compelled the Ottoman state to change its socio- economic and political structure. As a result of this transition of the state structure, which brought about a so-called “redistribution of power” in the empire, new Ottoman elites emerged from 1683 until the 1750s. We have divided the above time span into three stages that will greatly help us com- prehend the Ottoman transition from sultanic authority to numerous autonomies of first Muslim, then non-Muslim elites of the Ottoman Empire. During the first period (1683–1699) we see the emergence of Muslim power players at the expense of sultanic authority. In the second stage (1699–1730) we observe the sultans’ unsuccessful attempts to revive their authority. In the third period (1730–1750) we witness the emergence of non-Muslim notables who gradually came into power with the help of both the sultans and external powers. At the end of this last stage, not only did the authority of Ottoman sultans decrease enormously, but a new era evolved where Muslim and non-Muslim leading figures both fought and co-operated with one another for a new distribution of wealth in the Ottoman Empire.

  • Erzurum Eyâlet Kanunnâmelerinin Tahlili
    Türk Hukuk Tarihi Araþtýrmalarý, Sayý 2, 2006 (Güz), 87-98 Erzurum Eyâlet Kanunnâmelerinin Tahlili Bilgehan Pamuk* An Analysis of the Kanunnâmes From the Erzurum Province Ottomans used to make tahrir applications in order to collect taxes. In tahrir registers, especially at the beginnings the register or at the beginning of the relevant chapters the officials used to put ka- nunnâmes about the mentioned district. These kanunnâme which were named sanjak kanunnâmes, were acts whose aim was to include all elements who are subjected to pay tax in a sanjak. After Er- zurum became under Ottomans control, in order to determine the people who can be subjected to pay tax, Erzurum’s first kanunnâme the 16th century new sanjak kanunnâmes were formed. In 17th century, the timar system was fatally damaged and it became impossible to determine the tahrirs. In order to get out of this chaos the timar system gradually changed into iltizam system. With these changes in the system, the tahrir application was largely given up. This change, also affected the nature of Erzurum kanunnâmes. From then on Erzurum kanunnâmes turned into or- ganizational kanunnâmes. This kanunnâme was edited in relation to the incomes of the treasure. In conclusion, in this study, the kanunnâmes including acts towards the determination of the pe- ople who are subjected to pay tax in Erzurum will be introduced chronologically and after that they will be evaluated from conceptual, historiographical and methodological points of view.

  • Letters from Vidin: a Study of Ottoman Governmentality and Politics of Local Administration, 1864-1877
    LETTERS FROM VIDIN: A STUDY OF OTTOMAN GOVERNMENTALITY AND POLITICS OF LOCAL ADMINISTRATION, 1864-1877 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of the Ohio State University By Mehmet Safa Saracoglu ***** The Ohio State University 2007 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Carter Vaughn Findley, Adviser Professor Jane Hathaway ______________________ Professor Kenneth Andrien Adviser History Graduate Program Copyright by Mehmet Safa Saracoglu 2007 ABSTRACT This dissertation focuses on the local administrative practices in Vidin County during 1860s and 1870s. Vidin County, as defined by the Ottoman Provincial Regulation of 1864, is the area that includes the districts of Vidin (the administrative center), ‛Adliye (modern-day Kula), Belgradcık (Belogradchik), Berkofça (Bergovitsa), İvraca (Vratsa), Rahova (Rahovo), and Lom (Lom), all of which are located in modern-day Bulgaria. My focus is mostly on the post-1864 period primarily due to the document utilized for this dissertation: the copy registers of the county administrative council in Vidin. Doing a close reading of these copy registers together with other primary and secondary sources this dissertation analyzes the politics of local administration in Vidin as a case study to understand the Ottoman governmentality in the second half of the nineteenth century. The main thesis of this study contends that the local inhabitants of Vidin effectively used the institutional framework of local administration ii in this period of transformation in order to devise strategies that served their interests. This work distances itself from an understanding of the nineteenth-century local politics as polarized between a dominating local government trying to impose unprecedented reforms designed at the imperial center on the one hand, and an oppressed but nevertheless resistant people, rebelling against the insensitive policies of the state on the other.

This study addresses the following primary research questions: How did the interplay of domestic, regional, and international developments lay the groundwork for the formation of the Sykes-Picot territorial order? How was the administrative structure and regional divisions before the Sykes-Picot agreement and to which border categorizations did these structures correspond? Was the Sykes-Picot agreement the only international intervention that affected the borders of the region or were there other international interventions before the Sykes-Picot agreement? This study argues that the history of Middle Eastern border formation is not only an international one but also involves many aspects that have not widely been taken into consideration. In doing so, this paper adopts a critical historical perspective to analyze the evolution of Middle Eastern borders. This paper proposes a three-tracked evolutionary analytical framework (frontiers, boundaries, borders) to analyze the emergence of borders and applies it to the emergence of Ottoman territoriality.
