dc.description.abstract | International Relations Theories have undergone an important transformation in
recent past. Third discipline defining debate and the end of the Cold War have
provided the space to pursue various approaches in IR. Constructivism emerged
within this space. It challenged materialist and rationalist premises of mainstream IR
theories. Constructivism basically made use of identity and culture in foreign policy
analysis and security studies. It contends that state identities and strategic cultures are
important factors to shape states’ foreign and security policies. Alliances and security
dilemmas are then conceptualized as social constructions with a view to identity and
culture. Turkish-Israeli and Turkish-Greek relations are analyzed in this light and
concluded that the Turkish-Isreali alliance and the security dilemma in Turkish-Greek
relations have important identity questions and strategic cultural factors. | en_US |
