TY - JOUR T1 - Overcoming The Security Dilemma Between China and The United States: A New Security Paradigm of Holism TT - Çin ve Amerika Birleşik Devletleri Arasındaki Güvenlik İkilemini Aşmak: Bütüncül Bir Yeni Güvenlik Paradigması AU - Durdu, Jessica AU - Gao, Shangtao PY - 2024 DA - December Y2 - 2024 JF - Uluslararası Kriz ve Siyaset Araştırmaları Dergisi JO - UKSAD PB - Mehmet Seyfettin EROL WT - DergiPark SN - 2587-1269 SP - 125 EP - 144 VL - 8 IS - 2 LA - en AB - This article explores the increasing security dilemma between the United States (US)and China, rooted in the traditional Western security paradigm of individualism. Through a detailed analysis of US policy discourse and actions, the article highlights how this paradigm leads to an escalating tension. Contrastingly, the article presents China’s holistic approach, demonstrated by its four global initiatives, Belt and Road Initiative, Global Development Initiative, Global Security Initiative, and Global Civilization Initiative, as a solution to overcome these dilemmas. This alternative paradigm emphasizes cooperation, collective security, and multilateralism, suggesting a more effective path for global peace and security in an increasingly interconnected world. KW - Security Dilemma KW - US-China Rivalry KW - Holistic Security KW - Global Initiatives KW - New Security Paradigm N2 - Bu makale, Amerika Birleşik Devletleri (ABD) ve Çin arasındaki giderek artan güvenlik ikilemini, Batı'nın geleneksel bireyci güvenlik paradigması bağlamında incelemektedir. ABD’nin politika söylemi ve eylemleri ayrıntılı bir şekilde analiz edilerek bu paradigmanın gerginlikleri nasıl tırmandırdığı vurgulanmaktadır. Makale, buna karşılık Çin’in Kuşak ve Yol Girişimi, Küresel Kalkınma Girişimi, Küresel Güvenlik Girişimi ve Küresel Medeniyet Girişimi gibi dört küresel girişimiyle somutlaşan bütüncül yaklaşımını güvenlik ikilemlerini aşmak için bir çözüm olarak sunmaktadır. Bu alternatif paradigma, iş birliği, kolektif güvenlik ve çok taraflılığı vurgulayarak, küresel barış ve güvenlik için daha etkili bir yol önermektedir.
