Since the events of 9/11 in the USA, academic studies have questioned how the Islamic world perceives and imagines Americans and American foreign policy. In this context, Turkey comes into prominence among Muslim countries, with 90 percent of its population self- identifying as anti-American. This study argues that there are different versions of anti- Americanism in Turkey based on the power struggle of different discourses of Turkish nationalism. For a deeper understanding of why these anti-Americanisms exist, where they come from and how they relate to and challenge each other, it analyzes Turkish media representations of the USA’s war in Iraq by using a discourse-historical approach of Vienna School.

The Critique of liberal peace building in Iraq (2003-2011)
Sarı, Gamze; Torun, Zerrin; Department of International Relations (2019)
The number of scholars has determined that international peacebuilding in post- conflict regions reflects a liberal agenda in the post-Cold War era. However, recent studies on international peacebuilding revealed that liberal peacebuilding had not attained the intended aim of helping post-conflict societies to turn from conflict to self-sustaining peace. Therefore, liberal peacebuilding has created debates and controversies. This thesis reviews the critical approaches to peacebuilding to address the limitat...

GHOLIZADEH, MARYAM; Rittersberger, Helga İda; Department of Area Studies (2022-10-02)

Sectarianism in Iran foreign policy
Deniz, Nazlı Gül; Göçer Akder, Derya; Department of International Relations (2020)
This thesis aims to understand the explanatory power of sectarianism regarding the international politics of the Middle East, with a specific focus on Iran's foreign policy. The findings of this study are as follows: Iran as a main "Shia power", uses any kind of identities beside Shi'ism if it fits into its agenda, however, it does not pursue a sectarian foreign policy. It has been following pragmatic policies according to its national interests largely free from religion. Iranian foreign policies that supp...
Hybrid sovereignty in the Arab Middle East: the cases of Jordan, Iraq And Kuwait
Bacık, Gökhan; Altunışık, Meliha; Department of International Relations (2005)
This thesis analyses the issue of sovereignty in the Arab Middle Eastern context with a special reference to three cases: Jordan, Kuwait and Iraq. The basic argument of this thesis is the inapplicability of Western sovereignty in the related cases. The thesis will discuss that Western sovereignty which was brought to the region has been limited by certain facts. Instead, what we have is a hybrid sovereignty model in which both modern and primordial patterns co-exist. The thesis will also trace the history o...
The depiction of the American image in post-war Turkey: americanization and anti-americanization in Turkish periodicals (1946-1950)
Yılmaz, Atakan; Gürsel, Bahar; Department of History (2021-8)
This study aims to reveal how the image of America was depicted in the early post-war (1946-1950) Turkish periodicals in terms of ideological and cultural contexts. The mainstream Turkish press became a vital legitimation tool to convince the public about the Turkish-American relations in the developing Cold War circumstances. In this context, the depiction of the United States and the Soviet Union with certain political and cultural stereotypes played an essential role in forming the Cold War perception in...
