In this thesis, Metin Heper̕s analysis of the Ottoman state and state-society relations is examined. Heper̕s analysis is evaluated as an exemplar of the Ottoman state tradition paradigm. The examination of Heper̕s studies is intended to shed light on the premises and assumptions of this paradigm. In particular, the study focuses on the way Heper characterizes Ottoman state-society relations in contradistinction to the prevalent pattern of state-society relations in Western social formations so as to demonstrate the assumptions Heper builds upon. Heper̕s account of the Ottoman state tradition is discussed on the basis of an examination of his comparative perspective. The conceptual framework Heper relies on is delineated and certain methodological problems of his approach are indicated.

Interpretive schemes and Ottoman historiography in the twentieth century
Kılınçoğlu, Deniz T; Özveren, Eyüp; Department of Economics (2005)
This thesis analyzes the influences of three eminent social scientists on Ottoman historiography. Fernand Braudel, Immanuel Wallerstein and Michael Mann are three important scholars, who challenged the paradigms of world historiography in the twentieth century. Nevertheless, whereas the studies of Braudel and Wallerstein made more strong impacts on the area, the influences of Mann remain limited. The aim of this thesis is to evaluate the influences of the former two scholars on Ottoman historiography and th...
The Tajik civil war: 1992-1997
Shapoatov, Sayfiddin; Akçalı, Pınar; Department of Eurasian Studies (2004)
This study aims to analyzing the role of Islam, regionalism, and external factors (the involvement of the Russian Federation, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, and Iran) in the Tajik Civil War (1992-97). It analyzes all these three factors one by one. In the thesis, it is argued that all of the three factors played an active and equal role in the emergence of the war and that in the case of the absence of any of these factors, the Tajik Civil War would not erupt. As such, none of the factors is considered to be the ...
Losing the sight of the whole : a critical review of three schools of international political economy on globalisation and the state
Nazikoğlu, Zeynep; Yalman, Osman Galip; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2004)
Within this thesis, the dominant conceptualisations of the state/market and the national/global within international political economy are put into a critical scrutiny. It is emphasized that within most of the analyses of globalisation and the state, these conceptualisations are built in a dualist manner and that the internal relation between them is ignored. Within this context, it will be focused on three prominent approaches in contemporary international political economy literature, namely regulation ap...
A critical evaluation of the third way and its reflections on Turkish Politics
Türk, Duygu; Yalman, Osman Galip; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2005)
This thesis aims to provide a critical evaluation of the Third Way and its reflections on Turkish politics. The Third Way emerged in the late 1990s with a claim to provide an alternative both to the old social democracy of welfare state period and to neo-liberalism. Based on a specific account of the radically changed world, the Third Way has maintained that the new conditions have rendered the old conceptualizations, as well as the old political positions, invalid. In this sense, this thesis argues that th...
