Security Sector Governance: Turkey and Europe Türkiye'nin uzun süredir devam eden demokratikleflme sorunlar›na bilimsel The Turkish Economic and Social Studies Foundation (TESEV) aims to find social temelli katk›larda bulunmay› amaçlayan Türkiye Ekonomik ve Sosyal Etüdler science-based solutions to Turkey's longitudinal democratization-oriented problems. Vakf› (TESEV), 2004 y›l›ndan beri “Güvenlik Sektöründe Demokratik Aç›l›mlar Since 2004, we continue on with our projects assembled together under the heading / Güvenlik Sektörü Reformu” bafll›kl› projeler öbe¤ini sürdürüyor. Bir “düflünce of “Democratic Horizons in the Security Sector/Security Sector Reform”. As a “think GÜVENL‹K SECURITY üretim merkezi” olan TESEV, gündelik siyasetin gerilimli dünyas›na ve bu tank”, TESEV strives to keep at a distance from the conflictual and tense world of dünyan›n inifl-ç›k›fll› dalgalanmalar›na tabi olmamaya çabalayarak ve sosyal daily politics and its ebbs and flows. Instead we try to emulate a long-term “cool- bilimler yöntemlerini seferber ederek daha uzun soluklu, uzun vadeye yay›lm›fl headed” perspective premised on social scientific methods and advocacy strategies. ve “serinkanl›” bir bak›fl› infla etmeye çabal›yor. GÜVENL‹K SEKTÖRÜ YÖNET‹fi‹M‹: TÜRK‹YE VE AVRUPA SECURITY SECTOR GOVERNANCE: TURKEY AND EUROPE SEKTÖRÜ SECTOR In this broader perspective, we follow the example of contemporary democracies Sivilleflme olarak ifade edilebilecek genel bir siyasi çerçeveye oturan ve bu and place the debates -which are otherwise known as “civilianization” in Turkey yönüyle de hararetli çat›flmalar yaratan tart›flmalar› ise, ça¤dafl demokrasilerde and thus creates heated controversies- under the headings of the “Democratic oldu¤u gibi “Güvenlik Sektörünün Demokratik Gözetimi” ya da “Güvenlik Sektörü Oversight of the Security Sector” or “Security Sector Reform”. Understandably, the YÖNET‹fi‹M‹: GOVERNANCE: Reformu” ba¤lam›na yerlefltiriyoruz. Hiç kuflkusuz, “Güvenlik Sektörü” Türkiye “Security Sector” is a novel concept in Turkey and does provoke strong reactions. için yeni bir kavram ve al›fl›ld›k olunmad›¤› için tepkiler de yaratabiliyor. Hele Reactions are especially magnified when we mention the “Security Sector Reform,”. de “Güvenlik Sektörü Reformu”ndan bahsetmek, çok sert tepkilere yol aç›yor. However, it would be far more productive to realize that security is a demand of the Oysa güvenli¤in temel bir insan ve ülke talebi oldu¤u, bunu sa¤layan kurum ve citizens and of the country. Since the institutions that provide security have a public TÜRK‹YE VE TURKEY AND kurulufllar›n da tüm di¤erleri gibi kamusal varl›klar oldu¤u düflünülürse, character, demanding transparency and accountability from them is only normal. saydaml›k ve hesap verebilirlik gündemini daha do¤ru ve so¤ukkanl› bir flekilde anlamak mümkün olabilir. While one could rightly suggest that the security domain is somewhat different than others domains, this is not grounds enough to narrow its parameters down to AVRUPA EUROPE Güvenlik alan›n›n di¤erlerinden farkl› oldu¤u kabul edilse bile, bunu an ambigious concept of “Turkey's particular sensitivities” and thus hamper much- “ülke hassasiyetleri” gibi mu¤lâk ve nas›l ve kimlerce tespit edildi¤i çok daha needed free, open and informed discussion. We actually do have an alternative to net olmayan çerçevelere s›k›flt›rmak hem bu yaflamsal tart›flmay› çoraklaflt›r›yor, anxieties, fears and emotional reactions: Turkey could become simultaneously more hem de de¤iflik ihtimaller ve yaklafl›mlar› dile getirmenin önünde engel secure and more democratic if we free the security sector debate from the thick oluflturuyor. Oysa alternatif yollar da mevcut. Güvenlik sektörünü alt›na veil of secrecy and taboos, mutually learn from the experiences of the contemporary gömüldü¤ü s›r, gizem ve tabular perdesinden kurtaran, bu tart›flmay› democracies which we strive to be a more integral part of, find solutions more normallefltiren, parças› olmaya çabalad›¤›m›z ça¤dafl demokrasilerdeki iyi attuned with the realities in our own country. In this way, we also have to build up deneyimlerden ö¤renen, bunlar› ülkenin gereklilikleri ba¤lam›nda tart›flan ve participatory and democratic processes of open discussions. For long, Turkey and Ümit Cizre yurttafllar›n hak ve talep etti¤i yeni ve kat›l›mc› süreçler infla eden bir Türkiye its citizens have been deserving and demanding such a transformation. This book, hem daha güvenli hem de daha demokratik olmaz m›yd›? Güvenlik sektörü edited by two seminal and prolific academics of the field, Professors Cizre and yönetiflimi konusundaki Avrupa ve küresel deneyimleri karfl›laflt›rmal› olarak Cerrah, has a similarconcern and aims to introduce alternative channels of ‹brahim Cerrah sunan, Türkiye'den uzmanlar›n katk›lar›n› dünya ile paylaflan ve konunun iki information, scientific debate and public discussion. We could only hope that duayeni, Cizre ve Cerrah'›n editörlü¤ünde haz›rlanan bu kitap tam da bu yolu emotional and defensive reactions will be balanced with a more open minded açmak için çabal›yor. Umar›z ki, önümüzdeki dönemde hem TESEV'in hem de perspective, and we will be able to more aptly and fairly discuss the contributions bu kitab›n katk›lar›n› duygusal tepkilerden uzak bir flekilde anlay›p tart›flabiliriz. of TESEV and this edited book.
