There are two inter-related themes of this thesis: Economic development and global governance. We develop a perspective of what we call ‘Institutional International Political Economy’ (IIPE) in order to: i) assess the likelihood of developmental success on the part of the Third World countries in the twenty-first century, and ii) analyze the developmental and world-systemic implications of the so-called ‘global governance model’, which we conceptualize as an ultra-liberal capitalist project on the part of the ‘commanding heights’ of the contemporary ‘world-economy’. Our IIPE-perspective relies on an ‘institutionalist’ synthesis of the classic works of Karl Polanyi, Joseph Schumpeter and Fernand Braudel. In the light of this perspective, ‘state-led development’ seems to be inconceivable in the face of ‘governance’, which is an attempt to disintegrate the ‘institutional substance’ of the state-as-we-know-it into ‘market-like processes’. Nevertheless, ‘governance’ is bound to become the victim of its own success insofar as it destroys the indispensable political institutions upon which capitalism has survived as a historical world-system in the past.

Financial development, financial openness and growth: an empirical investigation
Ünaldı Akgün, Burçin; Özmen, Erdal; Department of Economics (2011)
The economic literature posits that a well-functioning economy requires a well-regulated financial system, and a sound financial system is essential to the fundamentals of an economy, however, even the most influential economists disagree sharply about the role of the finance-growth relationship in economic development. One of the most important questions concerning financial openness is whether it spurs long-run economic growth, and if yes, do these benefits outweigh the risks for developing countries. In ...
An Analysis of the social and solidarity economy and Post WW II development theories
Kuvvet, Cansın; Bahçecik, Şerif Onur; Department of International Relations (2019)
This thesis seeks to analyze the relationship between social and solidarity economy and post-World War II development thinking. Social and solidarity economy is a notion which is highly contested. Different actors define it in different ways and consequently propose different policies. Development thinking emerged in the post- WW II era to eliminate poverty and inequality among people and countries. Social and solidarity economy can be matched with human development and sustainable development in the mentio...
Empowering Critical International Theory by Applying Action Research Methodology to its Inquiry
Kurtbağ, Ömer (Orta Doğu Teknik Üniversitesi (Ankara, Turkey), 2011-4)
This paper analyzes the influence and relevance of Gramscian and Habermasian critical international theories within the context of recent developments in the world politics that do not function in favour of these discourses’ emancipatory objectives and projections. It first looks at their emergence as alternative paradigms to the traditional conceptualizations in the discipline of IR and then compares the roots of their theoretical positions and their contribution to the analysis of international politics. ...
European neighbourhood policy, as a hegemonic project: the case of Ukraine
Özdilek, Sibel Elif; Türkeş, Mustafa; Department of International Relations (2009)
This thesis attempts to analyze the European Neighbourhood Policy from a Neo-Gramscian perspective, mapping transnational power relations in Europe and identifying the historical-specific articulations between economic, political and (civil) societal processes in the specific case of Ukraine. Thus the thesis attempts to show how the EU’s hegemonic project is formed and applied, it also explores whether there are redefinitions of the EU hegemonic project and ask whether it is sustainable or not. It is conten...
Globalization, governance, the role of non-state actors: TOBB as a case study
Özkaban, Duru; Yalvaç, Faruk; Department of International Relations (2011)
This thesis examines TOBB within the global and national socioeconomic context in which it operates, focusing on the last decade. Though states are the main governing bodies and important actors, the role of non-state actors (NSAs) is becoming increasingly important as they are able to intervene and influence policy decisions through various activities. They matter in issues regarding globalization and governance. They interact with various other actors, they have a role in governance schemes and they may h...
