İpek, V.Biltekin, G.2016-02-082016-02-082013-091305-3299http://hdl.handle.net/11693/20821Turkey's activism in Africa has been extensively noted. It has been argued that non-state actors like business and civil society organizations take part in Turkey's Africa initiative. Nevertheless, state/non-state interaction in Turkey's foreign policy implementation has not been accounted for in theoretical terms in Turkish foreign policy literature. This paper combines post-international theory and foreign policy implementation in looking at Turkey's foreign policy towards sub-Saharan Africa. We argue that adapting to the multi-centric world, the Turkish government has moved beyond conventional state-to-state dealings in implementing its foreign policy and increasingly relies on the cooperation of non-state actors.EnglishForeign policy implementationPost-internationalismSub-Saharan AfricaTurkey-Africa relationsTurkish foreign policyArticle
