This book brings together an all-women group of scholars to
provide a historically grounded and theoretically rich examination
of the continuities and changes in Turkey’s foreign policy since
the Republic's establishment in 1923. Using different International
Relations theories, clarifying the interaction between
domestic politics and foreign policymaking, the book charts
the evolution of Turkey’s foreign policy vis-a-vis several
regions and global actors and examines the major developments in
Turkey’s relations with these actors. Some chapters emphasize the
continuities in Turkey’s external relations, and others
examine the significant changes and discontinuities in
certain areas. Recognizing that Turkey’s state interests may not
always coincide with the interests of the ruling elite, the book
demonstrates that the centennial birthday of
Turkey represents a constitutive moment for Turkey’s future
and calls for a pragmatic, as opposed to a completely
ideologically-based, grand strategy that should focus on
progressive ideals.
This handbook explores the challenges and opportunities for
leadership and conflict response in the context of Africa at
several levels. Leadership plays a vital role in affecting conflict
response but is frequently only examined at the macro level of
state, government, and international organizations. This handbook
addresses the need to explore challenges and opportunities for
leadership at several levels: macro (global, regional, national),
meso (NGOs, religious groups, academics), and micro (civil society
organizations, youth groups, women’s organizations). Analysis
from multiple levels provides a broader explanation of conflict
dynamics and helps to fit localized conflict transformation
approaches into wider national or regional structures. The
multidisciplinary essays presented in this volume encompass the
psychological, political, and structural dimensions of conflict
response and demonstrate how its success is fundamentally linked to
the style of effectiveness of leadership, among other factors. The
volume is divided into four thematic sections: Part I: The theory
and dynamics of conflict response and leadership Part II:
Macro-level leadership experiences in conflict response Part III:
Meso-/micro-level leadership experiences in conflict response Part
IV: Recommendations for improved leadership in conflict response
This book will be of much interest to students of conflict
resolution, peace studies, African politics, security studies, and
international relations, in general.
