Turkish Foreign Policy Since 1774 Downloaded by [Middle East Techincal Uni] at 13:47 04 May 2013 Turkish Foreign Policy since 1774 This revised and updated version of William Hale’s Turkish Foreign Policy 1774–2000 offers a comprehensive and analytical survey of Turkish foreign policy since the last quarter of the eighteenth century, when the Turks’ relations with the rest of the world entered their most critical phase. In recent years Turkey’s international role has changed and expanded dramatically, and the new edition revisits the chapters and topics covered in light of these changes. Drawing on newly available information and ideas, the author carefully alters the earlier historical narrative while preserving the clarity and accessibility of the original. Combining the long historical per- spective with a detailed survey and analysis of the most recent developments, this book fills a clear gap in the literature on Turkey’s modern history. For readers with a broader interest in international history, it also offers a crucial example of how a medium sized power has acted in the international environment. William Hale is a former Professor of Turkish Politics in the School of Oriental and African Studies of the University of London. Downloaded by [Middle East Techincal Uni] at 13:47 04 May 2013 Praise for previous editions ‘an illuminating insight into the continuities as well as the changes in Turkey’s relations with the outside world since the middle of the eighteen century … a masterly study that includes useful historical maps and an exhaustively impressive bibliography.’ International Affairs ‘an up-to-the-minute account that should satisfy all those who need to understand the motives of Turkish diplomacy today, and to evaluate its results … One of the many merits of Hale’s study is that it relates foreign policy to the Turkish domestic scene, in particular to government instability in the last decade and the mismanagement of the economy which started even earlier.’ Choice ‘provides greater insight into Turkish foreign policy development and should be read by scholars seeking a thorough understanding of the impetus behind Turkey’s changing role in international relations.’ Journal of Peace Research ‘a meticulously researched and lucidly written book with an impressive biography and useful maps. Students and scholars of Turkish foreign policy will be well served by this book for years to come.’ International Journal of Middle East Studies ‘a masterful, detailed study of Turkey’s foreign policy after the end of the cold war and the disintegration of the Soviet Union and Yugoslavia … a superb work, a gold mine of reliable and detached information on Turkey’s domestic and foreign affairs. It is both a political history of Turkey and an excellent study of Turkish foreign policy based on official documents and publications as well as on most of the books and articles on the topic.’ The International History Review Downloaded by [Middle East Techincal Uni] at 13:47 04 May 2013 Turkish Foreign Policy since 1774 3rd edition William Hale Downloaded by [Middle East Techincal Uni] at 13:47 04 May 2013 First published 2000 by Frank Cass Publishers Second edition published 2003 by Frank Cass Publishers This edition published 2013 by Routledge 2 Park Square, Milton Park, Abingdon, Oxon OX14 4RN Simultaneously published in the USA and Canada by Routledge 711 Third Avenue, New York, NY 10017 Routledge is an imprint of the Taylor & Francis Group, an informa business © 2000, 2003, 2013 William Hale The right of William Hale to be identified as author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with sections 77 and 78 of the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988.

When writing of the Ottoman period, when Turkish was written in Arabic characters, the transliterations normally used by writers at the time have been adhered to, although this has resulted in some inconsistencies. Similarly, non-Turkish names originally written in the Arabic, Cyrillic or Greek alphabets have been rendered in the way normally used by English language writers, and the author must beg the forgiveness of specialists for any mistakes. In the modern Turkish alphabet, the letters are pronounced roughly as in English, with the following exceptions: a – short ‘a’, as in French, or the English ‘u’ in ‘hut’. c –‘j’, as in English ‘jam’. ç –‘ch’, as in English ‘church’. g˘ – normally silent: lengthens preceding vowel. ι – fi ‘ ’ ‘ ’ as in the rst and last a sin banana . i – as in English ‘bit’: notice the upper case form I. ö – as in German, or the French ‘eu’ in ‘leur’. s¸ –‘sh’,asin‘shut’. ü – as in German, or the French ‘u’ in ‘tu’.

  • A Mapping of Their Great Divide and Its EU Implications
    European Research Studies Journal Volume XXI, Issue 3, 2018 pp. 14 - 42 Germany and Greece: A Mapping of their Great Divide and its EU Implications George C. Bitros1 Abstract: The economic constitutions of Germany and Greece have resulted in the post-war period in two economies that are based on two vastly different philosophies. Germany has built a highly competitive, outward looking economy based essentially on the principles of the so-called “Social Market Economy”, whereas Greece has set up a “state- managed economy” by drawing on the principles of central planning and administrative controls. This divide is equally stark, if assessed on the basis of the performance of the two economies. For, as it is known by now, Germany has become once again the powerhouse of Europe while Greece has gone bankrupt. As to the implications of this great divide for the future of the EU, its identification and map- ping helps understand why convergence criteria on the basis of economic performance and living standards should be abandoned in favour of criteria based on the widening and deep- ening of the four European freedoms. A multispeed Euroland enmeshed in these freedoms is going to be more democratic, more cohesive and a much happier union for the European citizens to call homeland. Keywords: Social market economy, central planning, economic performance, structural differences, four European freedoms.

  • Greek Elections 2012: a Political Crisis As an Anti-Marketing Tool for Traditional Parties
    American International Journal of Contemporary Research Vol. 3 No. 1; January 2013 Greek Elections 2012: A Political Crisis as an Anti-Marketing Tool for Traditional Parties Dr. Nasios Orinos European University Cyprus Kastorias 6A, Lykavitos, 1055, Nicosia, Cyprus Abstract This article strives to answer the question how a political crisis can be an anti-marketing tool for traditional parties. It presents a road map of the 2012 Greek Parliamentary Elections. It begins with a discussion of the context within which the elections have taken part, explaining how the memorandum and the bailout agreement imposed have impacted the country. It reviews the Greek election law and discusses the campaign strategies and tactics that have been used historically. But foremost the article tries to bridge between the two elections, 6th of May 2012 and 17th of June 2012, presenting the strategies used in those, while discussing and analyzing the campaigns used by the two major parties now in Greece, New Democracy and SYRIZA. It concludes by presenting the results of the two elections noting the huge percentage drop of PASOK and the end of two-party system, synthesizing it with the impact these results will have on the country. Keywords: Pasok , Syriza, New Democracy, Memorandum 1. Introduction Newman (1999) highlighted that marketing strategy lies at the heart of electoral success because it induces a campaign to put together, in a relatively short period of time, a forceful organization that mobilizes support and generates a winning coalition of disparate and sometimes conflicting groups. Garecht (2010) has posed a question. Why on earth would we want to get involved in politics? As he noted, the political lifestyle seems enjoyable.

  • The Athens Polytechnic Uprising: Myth and Reality
    American International Journal of Contemporary Research Vol. 3 No. 8; August 2013 The Athens Polytechnic Uprising: Myth and Reality Marianthi Kotea Department of Sociology Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences Athens-Greece Abstract The following text investigates how specific urban places, such as buildings, squares or streets, become symbols of contestation of established order. It uses as study case the Athens Polytechnic uprising and focuses on how and why the main building of the National Technical University of Athens (Polytechnio) and the surrounding area at Exarchia became symbol of resistance against tyranny and foreign dependence. The investigation is concentrated on three topics: a) the meaning of the ritual which has been established by the celebration of the event over the years, b) the circumstances which allowed the historical event to become not only symbol of the struggle against dictatorship but also emblem for anarchism and for terrorism, c) the delayed recognition of the Greek people’s Resistance against dictatorship by the Parliament. The outcome of the investigation is that the polytechnic uprising was established as symbol of resistance by the entire Greek Left, though socialists, communists and anarchists don’t share the same visions. Eventually the event was established as a national holiday by the Greek Parliament after a 26-year-delay, that is in 1999 26th August. At that time the left ideology was a spent force for the majority of Youth, which didn’t threaten the economic and social status quo any more. Nowadays unfortunately the visions of the polytechnic uprising for freedom, democracy, national independence, progress and social justice seem to be the solution of current crisis… Keywords: revolutionary place-making, urban space, riots, political changeover, symbol of resistance, Exharhia, anarchism, terrorism, memory politics, commemoration festivities, national holiday 1.

    1330_A1-A8.qxd 9/20/07 9:11 AM Page 1 310-567/B428-S/11007 Greece, Cyprus, Turkey, 1973–1976 Greece 1. Memorandum From the President’s Assistant for National Security Affairs (Kissinger) to President Nixon1 Washington, March 30, 1973. SUBJECT Letter to Prime Minister Papadopoulos As US assistance recipients improve their economic condition, it has been our practice to shift them gradually from grant military as- sistance to foreign military sales credits. You may recall that Iran took this step shortly after your visit in May last year. Several other coun- tries were considered to make this transition in FY 1974. Greece was one of them. When the Greek government learned of this, they decided to do the same thing that Iran did last spring—take themselves off the grant list. They judged that the amount of money had become quite small and that their being on the recipient list subjected them to con- tinued Congressional criticism. They preferred to initiate the termina- tion of grant military assistance. Greece will receive $65 million in mil- itary sales credits in FY 1974. Prime Minister Papadopoulos wrote you a letter [Tab B]2 explain- ing Greece’s step. There was some misunderstanding at the Greek end of what was involved, so there has had to be continuing technical dis- cussion over the practical elements of terminating grant assistance so that the Greeks would not do themselves out of some aid that was in the pipeline. However, those discussions need not affect your reply. At Tab A is a suggested reply to the Prime Minister treating this transition in a low key way and expressing appreciation for Greece’s contribution to NATO.
