[외교/안보] Turkey in the post-Arab uprisings era: vacillating between regional and domestic priorities

튀르키예 국외연구자료 연구보고서 - Polish Political Science Yearbook 발간일 : 2024-04-01 등록일 : 2024-05-03 원문링크

This article analyses Turkey’s foreign policy in relation to the post-Arab uprisings status quo through the prism of regional hegemony theory. The aspiring regional hegemon is identified through criteria that are applied to Turkish foreign policy, recontextualizing soft power initiatives of the previous decades with current hard power policies. The article suggests that while the Arab uprisings played an important part in the redefinition of Turkish foreign policy, Erdoğan’s domestic priorities informed its recalibration in order to weather political difficulties and maintain power. The objective would be to challenge the status quo shepherded by the West during the twentieth century as articulated by the Mavi Vatan doctrine, the motivation to renegotiate the Lausanne treaty, the conversion of the Hagia Sophia into a mosque, and even the escalating Erdoğan-Macron verbal feud. Turkey’s aspirations for regional hegemony are evidenced in policies including military intervention, diplomatic and economic support to state entities, and escalation of tensions with other regional powers, as well as through Erdoğan’s consolidation of power over Turkish domestic affairs.
