Prof. Mustafa Kibaro ğlu July 2008 This study has two intertwined objectives. First, this study propounds an analytical framework for the analysis of a state’s military relations as an alternative to the analytical framework traditionally employed. The new analytical framework is devised by segregating the entirety of a state’s foreign military relations into four categories according to their distinctive subject matters. As a case study, this study scrutinizes Turkish-Chinese military relations within the analytical framework propounded, and by doing so, it purports to display the validity of the new analytical framework. Second, this study makes an inclusive examination of bilateral relations between Turkey and China, mainly in the post Cold War era. It contends that Turkish-Chinese relations have yet to develop to levels envisaged and aimed at by policymakers and scholars from the two sides. It probes the causes that have thus far hindered the development of political, economic, military, and social and cultural relations between Turkey and China in separate and consecutive sections. Keywords: Foreign Military Relations, Turkish-Chinese Relations, Turkish-Chinese Military Relations, Formal Military Relations, Operational Military Relations, Technical Military Relations, Organizational Military Relations iii ÖZET TÜRK İYE-ÇİN (ASKER İ) İLİŞ KİLER İNİN B İR ANAL İZİ Ersoy, Eyüp Yüksek Lisans, Uluslararası İli şkiler Tez Danı şmanı: Yar. Doç. Dr. Mustafa Kibaro ğlu Temmuz 2008 Bu çalı şma iç içe geçmi ş iki amacı gerçekle ştirmeye yöneliktir. İlk olarak, iki ülke arasındaki askeri ili şkileri incelemekte kullanılan geleneksel analitik çerçeveye bir alternatif olarak yeni bir analitik çerçeve ortaya koymaktadır. Bu yeni analitik çerçeve, bir devletin askeri ili şkilerinin bütününün konularına göre dört ayrı kategoriye bölünmesi ile tasarlanmı ştır. Bu çalı şma, Türkiye ile Çin arasındaki askeri ili şkileri ortaya konan yeni analitik çerçeve dahilinde irdelemektedir. Böylece bu çalı şma ortaya konan yeni analitik çerçevenin geçerlili ğini gösterme iddiasındadır. İkinci olarak, bu çalı şma daha çok So ğuk Sava ş sonrası dönemde Türkiye ile Çin arasında geli şen ili şkilerin kapsamlı bir incelemesini ortaya koymaktadır. Buradaki temel sav, iki devlet arasındaki ili şkilerin iki ülke siyasetçileri ve akademisyenlerince öngörülen ve hedeflenen seviyeye ula şmaktan uzak oldu ğudur. Bu çalı şmada, Türkiye ile Çin arasındaki siyasi, ekonomik, askeri ve sosyal ve kültürel ili şkilerin geli şimini engelleyen sebepler ayrı ve müteselsil bölümlerde incelenmektedir. Anahtar Kelimeler: Dı ş Askeri İli şkiler, Türkiye-Çin İli şkileri, Türkiye-Çin Askeri İli şkileri, Resmi Askeri İli şkiler, Operasyonel Askeri İli şkiler, Teknik Askeri İli şkiler, Kurumsal Askeri İli şkiler iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Far and above, I would like to thank Assoc. Prof. Mustafa Kibaro ğlu for his unwavering support, his inspiring guidance, and his unconditional patience. I am deeply glad and definitely fortunate to have met and worked with such an acclaimed scholar. I would also like to thank Assist. Prof. Pınar Bilgin and Assist. Prof. Paul Williams for the intellectually challenging theory classes which have introduced the young mind, among others, the decisive importance of (re)interpreting the ‘reality’ in addition to perceiving it. I would also like to thank Assoc. Prof. Sedat Laçiner and Assoc. Prof. İhsan Bal from International Strategic Research Organization (USAK) for the sincere encouragement and productive opportunities they have generously provided. I would also like to thank Şanlı Bahadır Koç from Eurasian Center for Strategic Studies (ASAM) especially for the informative Foreign Press Review , a daily compilation of news worldwide. v I would also like to thank The Scientific and Technological Research Council of Turkey (TÜB İTAK) for the financial support it provided. I would also like to thank Turkish National Football Team for its spectacular triumph in EURO2008. The crescent and the star, we all are! I would also like to thank my dear friends, Ali Said the Young Civilian, Alperen the Mon Cher , Atilla the Inspector, Banu the Hem şire , Changsob Kim the Major, Emrah the Starbucksist, Erdo ğan the Cardiologist, Ezgi the Mirage, Hakan the Taekwondo Master, Hakkı the Hegemon, Mehmet Alp the Brother, Murat the King, Nazlı the Libra, Serdar the Saint, Uygar the Transcendental, Yasir the Co-Poet, for all the sincere smiles, which have been unique cooling rosaceous snowflakes for the young mind aflame. I would also like to thank two individuals whose incipient companionship has helped me finish this work. Thanks to Mehmet Emin, the only one who is both willing to and able to decode my vagabond words, for every shimmering moment he kindly shares, and for the late night delicious ‘full bread chickens’ that have encouraged my ‘studies’, notably on dieting, and drastically changed the very direction of what I have lived, mostly in my post eating dreams. I am dedicating ‘Song for You’ from Lunatica to him. vi Thanks to Osman Peker, the saint of crucified affections and the apostle of bourgeoning twilights and ‘the mostest importantest’, for urging the young mind to give answers that should not be given to the questions that should not be asked, and for dissipating, on pain of love, ‘the bitterness of fruits that has pervaded the eyes’ of his eternal student. I am dedicating ‘Who You Are’ from Lunatica to him. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS ABSTRACT ..................................................................................................... iii ÖZET ...............................................................................................................iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS.............................................................................v TABLE OF CONTENTS.................................................................................viii LIST OF ABBREVIATIONS..........................................................................xi LIST OF TABLES...........................................................................................xv LIST OF FIGURES.........................................................................................xvii CHAPTER I: INTRODUCTION ....................................................................1 CHAPTER II: BILATERAL MILITARY RELATIONS: AN ANALYTICAL FRAMEWORK ..............................................................8 2. 1.

Kıbrıs Adası’nı yöneten devlet, Akdeniz ve çevresini kontrol edebilmektedir. Bundan dolayı tarihte mücadelelere ve savaşlara sahne olmuştur. 1878 yılında Osmanlı Devleti ile Birleşik Krallık (İngiltere) arasında imzalanan bir antlaşma ile Kıbrıs’ın yönetimi İngiltere’ye bırakılmıştır. Birinci Dünya Savaşı başladığında, tek yanlı bir kararla İngiltere adayı ilhak etmiştir. Daha sonra Kıbrıs, Taç Kolonisi ilan edilmiştir. Kıbrıslı Rumların organizasyonu olan EOKA 1955 yılında George Grivas liderliğinde hükûmete karşı saldırı başlatmıştır. Talepleri Enosis’tir (Yunanistan ile birleşmek). Sonra Kıbrıslı Türklere karşı katliam başlatmışlardır. Kıbrıslı Türklerin organizas- yonu olan Türk Mukavemet Teşkilatı (TMT), 1957 yılında savunmaya başlamıştır. TMT Türkiye Cumhuriyeti’nin desteği ile yeniden yapılandırılmıştır. Bu çalışmada, TMT’nin kuruluşu, yapısı, savunma faaliyetleri ve Kıbrıs Adası’nda yaşanan süreç anlatılmaktadır.

  • Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution
    Cultural Diplomacy and Conflict Resolution Introduction In his poem, The Second Coming (1919), William Butler Yeats captured the moment we are now experiencing: Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. As we see the deterioration of the institutions created and fostered after the Second World War to create a climate in which peace and prosperity could flourish in Europe and beyond, it is important to understand the role played by diplomacy in securing the stability and strengthening the shared values of freedom and democracy that have marked this era for the nations of the world. It is most instructive to read the Inaugural Address of President John F. Kennedy, in which he encouraged Americans not only to do good things for their own country, but to do good things in the world. The creation of the Peace Corps is an example of the kind of spirit that put young American volunteers into some of the poorest nations in an effort to improve the standard of living for people around the globe. We knew we were leaders; we knew that we had many political and economic and social advantages. There was an impetus to share this wealth. Generosity, not greed, was the motivation of that generation. Of course, this did not begin with Kennedy. It was preceded by the Marshall Plan, one of the only times in history that the conqueror decided to rebuild the country of the vanquished foe.

Çalışmamızda araştırılan Bodrum (Karada-Milta) ve Kuşadası (Setur) Marinaları, modern alt yapıları ve uygun ücretleri ile Akdeniz’de seyir halinde olan yerli ve yabancı yatlara birinci sınıf hizmet veren marinalardır. Kuşadası, Bodrum ve Pire yat limanları dünyanın çeşitli bölgelerinden gelen turistleri coğrafi şartlarının sağladığı avantajlardan dolayı etkilemektedirler. Bodrum ve Kuşadası bölgesi tüm dünyadaki diğer tarihi ve arkeolojik yöreler içinde en tanınmış ve bilinen eserlere ve yerlere sahiptir. Yatlarıyla gelen ziyaretçiler Bodrum Milta Marina ve Kuşadası Setur Marina’da gereksindikleri her tür hizmeti almaktadırlar. Bu yüzden tez konumuz olan marinalar Ege ve Akdeniz’de yelken açanlar tarafından tercih edilmektedir. Yat turizminin daha üst noktalara ulaşması için gerekli önlemler alındığında, Kuşadası Setur ve Bodrum Milta Marinalarının gelişen Akdeniz Yat turizmi dünyasında en önde kabul edilen İspanya, Fransa ve İtalya’daki marinalardan daha fazla ilerleyerek, her geçen yıl turizm alanında dünya pazarındaki payını artırarak bir çekim merkezi haline gelen Türkiye’nin en popüler marinaları olarak kabul edileceklerdir. ABSTRACT In the study ‘Comparison of Kuşadası, Bodrum and Piraeus (Greece) Marinas in terms of Tourism Geography’ the natural beauty, rich history and marinas of Bodrum, Kuşadası, accepted as the yacht tourism centers in Turkey, and Piraeus which is considered more developed in yacht tourism is analysed.

  • The Peace Conference of Lausanne (1922-1923)
    Bern 1923 - 2008 With the kind support of: Mrs Ionna Ertegiin Mrs Selma Goksel Tiirkiye I~ Bankasi Anadolu Ajans1 Thanks to: Onur Ozc;:eri (Research, text and layout) Agathon Aerni (research) Tuluy Tanc;: (editing) © Embassy of Turkey, Bern 85 years of representation of the Republic of Turkey in Switzerland (1923-2008) The Embassy of the Republic of Turkey, Bern ~u6tic offJ'urk,ey rrfie (Jlresufent It is no coincidence that the Republic of Turkey purchased its first Embassy premises abroad, in Switzerland's capital, Bern, to establish the seat of its diplomatic representation. The negotiation of a peace treaty and its successful outcome took the shape of the Treaty of Lausanne in 1923. The Treaty of Lausanne left an indelible mark in our memory. The aspiration of the Turkish nation to live as a free and independent people is thus anchored in Switzerland, a land that earned the reputation for fairness, equity and justice. The subsequent adoption in 1926 of a Civil Code based on the Swiss example, the Montreux Convention negotiated in 1936 in Switzerland giving full sovereignty on the Turkish Straits and other events have solidified this perception. I am therefore particularly pleased that the roots of the friendship bonds between Turkey and Switzerland and the main events associating Switzerland to Turkey have been compiled in a book. The book also illustrates the reciprocal attention and like minded approaches of both Turkey and Switzerland to further promote bilateral relations between two democracies and to facilitate the realization of aspirations of peace. I would like to express my thanks to the President of the Swiss Confederation, His Excellency Pascal Couchepin and to all who have contributed to the realization of this book.

  • “A Correct and Progressive Road”: Us-Turkish Relations, 1945-1964
    “A CORRECT AND PROGRESSIVE ROAD”: U.S.-TURKISH RELATIONS, 1945-1964 Michael M. Carver A Dissertation Submitted to the Graduate College of Bowling Green State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY May 2011 Committee: Dr. Douglas J. Forsyth, Advisor Dr. Gary R. Hess Dr. Marc V. Simon, Graduate Faculty Representative Dr. Tiffany Trimmer 1 2011 Michael M. Carver All Rights Reserved ABSTRACT 2 Dr. Douglas Forsyth, Advisor This historical investigation of U.S.-Turkish relations from the end of World War II to 1964 provides a greater understanding of the challenges inherent in the formation and implementation of U.S. policy in Turkey at a time when the Turks embarked on multiparty politics and a determined campaign to become a modern and distinctly European nation through ambitious economic development programs. Washington proved instrumental in this endeavor, providing financial support through the Marshall Plan and subsequent aid programs, and political sponsorship of Turkey’s membership in international organizations such as NATO and the EEC. U.S. policymakers encountered various quandaries as they forged bilateral relations with the Turks, specifically reconciling democratization with Turkey’s development and participation in the containment of communism. The Turkish government under Adnan Menderes demonstrated its reliability as a U.S. ally, providing troops to fight in the Korean War and cooperating in the construction of NATO bases and the modernization of its military, but it came under increasing pressure from the political opposition when its economic policies failed to secure long-term economic growth and stability. Starting in the mid-1950s the Menderes government adopted increasingly authoritarian measures to control dissent, a problematic situation for Washington, as it desired greater Turkish democracy while at them same time did not wish to compromise the growing American military presence in Turkey.
