Environmental degradation in the world is one of discussing
problems in the literature for many decades. There are a lot of
factors discussed that worsen our environment. Environmental
degradation due to the pollution from fossil fuels induce countries
to decrease their use, however, until the productivity of renewable
resources reaches the necessary level, countries continue to be
highly dependent on non-renewable sources. Another important issue
is increasing waste in all spheres of our life. One of the
solutions for the environmental degradation slowdown is in circular
economy. The circular economy aims to produce as less waste as
possible by reusing materials in new productions. The circular
economy is becoming part of many different sectors of an economy.
This book discusses and analyzes different sectors that are
starting to be involved in the circular economy process in Turkey.
Energy policy has always been important to the population for
stability and to advance technological progress and economic
growth. The scope of energy discussions and concerns in the world
have expanded significantly in the last several decades. In order
to cope with accelerating pollution from fossil fuels, countries
have increased investments in renewable energy power plants.
However, the existing technology does not allow for the significant
increase of the capacity of renewable energy facilities in a short
period. As a result, in order to maintain economic growth,
countries continue to be highly dependent on fossil fuels like oil,
natural gas, and coal. At the same time, some countries start to
encounter such problems as depletion of their oil and natural gas
resources. The aim of this book is to analyze energy resources in
the Middle East and Eastern Europe and relations between countries
that appear as a result of new discoveries in this area.
Turkey and Russia are countries with growing international
importance. Turkish-Russian Relations: Prospects and Challenges
analyzes Turkish-Russian relations from multiple perspectives in
order to better understand the multifaceted arenas of their
cooperation and how these relations may affect the collaboration
with other countries. The first part of this book starts with a
geopolitical analysis of Turkish-Russian relations in the context
of the Middle East and then delves into the origin of these
relations with reference to Cold War realities still in play today.
The next part of the book analyzes the Turkish-Russian relations in
terms of micro-level studies, with special reference to mass media,
suicide, and migration, to give color to a dynamic and constantly
