Item Open Access Item Open Access Foreword chaos and complexity theory in world politics(IGI Global, 2014) Tsarouhas, Dimitris[No abstract available]Item Open Access Introduction(Routledge, 2010) Aydınlı, Ersel; Aydınlı, ErselThis book presents a selection of edited essays written by leading international scholars engaging with practicing intelligence, military, and police officers and responding to their first-hand international security cooperation experiences. The resulting chapters provide original theoretical perspectives on evolving international security cooperation practices. Beginning with the premise that intelligence cooperation-domestically between agencies, internationally between states, and transnationally among states, sub-state and non-state actors-is essential in order to successfully counter the evolving transnational nature of security threats, the authors explore the transnationalization in states' responses to a transnational security threat like 'global' terror. They assess whether early signs of a "statist transnationalism" for a new global security cooperation regime can be identified, and look at the use of extraordinary rendition and police liaisons as means for the development and growth of transnational security cooperation.This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international relations, terrorism, security, policing and intelligence.Item Open Access Introduction(Routledge, 2016) Guillaume, X.; Bilgin, P.; Guillaume, X.; Bilgin, PınarItem Open Access Introduction(State University of New York Press, 2005) Rosenau, J. N.; Aydınlı, Ersel; Rosenau, J. N.; Aydınlı, ErselThis volume studies the links among the concepts of globalization, security, and the authority of the nation state, drawing attention to why and how these three concepts are interrelated and why they should be studied together. Contributors explore the connections between security and global transformations, and the corresponding or resulting changes in state structures that emerge. Probing and extending existing paradigms, the book offers three regional cases studies: the periphery states of the Middle East and North Africa, the second world states of the Russian Federation, and the core states of the European Union. It concludes with three chapters that synthesize the above themes to identify corresponding changes in the patterns of international politics.Item Open Access Introduction to the forum on Karin Fierke snapshots from home mind action and strategy in an uncertain world Bristol University Press 2022(SAGE Publications, 2023-11-20) Bilgin, PınarKarin Fierke situates Snapshots from Home at the intersection of two bodies of scholarship: one directed toward globalizing the study of world politics and the other drawing from quantum theory's insights to study the social world. The first body of scholarship has a long history. That it did not make a mark on the study of world politics until the mid-2010s has to do with the narrow notion of "science" that dominated the study of world politics, also known as disciplinary International Relations (IR). By way of showing the obsolescence of the narrow notion of "science" that IR has modeled itself on, the body of efforts that draw from quantum theory's insights has the potential to make more room for the first one. Fierke's book, by way of exploring the parallels between quantum physics and Asian philosophies, allows us to identify this potential. The contributors to this special forum each elaborate on different aspects of this potential.Item Open Access Introduction: Widening the world of IR(Routledge, 2018) Aydınlı, Ersel; Biltekin, Gonca; Aydınlı, Ersel; Biltekin, Gonca
