Where does Türkiye stand? A glimpse at the Turkish policy in 2023

08
September 2023
Akram Zaoui & Serhat Suha

This podcast was recorded before the second round of the Turkish presidential election. While the result of the latter was still unknown, the first round as well as the legislative elections had marked clear tendencies within the Turkish society. Amongst them, a form of affirmation and rebirth of nationalism as drivers and revived guiding principles of the functioning of the Turkish polity. In particular, a key observation that was drawn after the first results of Türkiye's general elections were known was that the weak economic results, which Mr. Erdogan's heteredox policies had led to, did not seem to weaken the ability of the president's popular base to mobilize for its champion. For this episode of the PCNS podcasts, Dr. Serhat Suha, senior researcher at Trends Research and Advisory, answered the questions of Mr. Akram Zaoui, Senior Specialist at the PCNS.

Il ne se passe pas un mois, voire une semaine sans qu’actions, déclarations ou positions de l’un des deux pays contre l’autre ne fasse la Une de l’actualité. Des incidents les plus dangereux en Mer de Chine méridionale, aux mesur ...

    تم نشر هذا المقال في الأصل على موقع قناة الحرة يقول یووال نوح هراري إن نمو الذكاء الاصطناعي والتقنيات البيولوجية قد يؤدي إلى إنتاج طبقة من "رجال متفوقين" يحكمون العالم ويحولون باقي البشر إلى "طبقة غير نافعة" (كتاب 21 مسألة للقرن الـ 21). كما تنبأ بأن التقدم العلمي سوف يولد لامساواة غير مسبوقة في التاريخ داخل المجتمعات، لكن أيضا بين الأمم. سوف تزداد الهوة بين البلدان الصناعية التي تسيطر على التكنولوجيا وتلك المحرومة منها، بل سوف لن تردم لاحقا. لاحقا، جاء تصريح الرئي ...

    Le lancement et la conduite de toute négociation ne dépendent pas seulement des positions des parties, de leur volonté de faire des concessions et, éventuellement, du talent du médiateur. De la même manière qu’ils ne dépendent pas, uniquement, du règlement des questions de procédure et de l’adoption d’arrangements techniques destinés à contourner les objections préalables des parties, à ménager leurs sensibilités et à leur faire accepter un code de conduite adapté à chaque phase des ...

    During the past few years, the different global ongoing events have left us baffled and astonished. Given the decreasing ability to understand and assimilate the amount of changes, mutations, and crises, one would wonder: what happened to the global order? How has -in this short period of time- the power of its values and institutions that much decreased? What are the causes for these protectionist and massive populist waves?
