GLOBES in the GLOBE

Abstract

This article argues that regionalism arises from safety concerns and power motives and it has a core of political polarization at the global level. Thesis of the article clarifies itself by showing how the economic dimension of globalization is used as a tool of regionalism. Economic integration which targets to increase trade volumes, stimulate economy and multiply the prosperity of people serves the man’s safety motives much more than it does the economic interests; it is a tool of regionalism, so it is a tool for providing security and achieving power. European Union as a representative of the highest level in economic integration today is very clear model of this trio: economic region-safety region-power region. So, the globes are regions here and the globe is the world

Dünyadaki Bölgeler

Year 2015, Volume: 14 Issue: 1, 123 - 139, 01.05.2015

Abstract

Bu makale, bölgeselciliğin güvenlik kaygıları ve güç motivasyonlarından doğduğunu ve küresel seviyede bir siyasi kutuplaşmanın özünü içerisinde taşıdığını iddia etmektedir. Makale, küreselleşmenin ekonomik boyutunun, bölgeselciliğin bir aracı olarak kullanıldığını göstererek kendi tezini belirginleştiriyor. Ekonomiyi canlandırmayı, ticareti ve insanların zenginliğini arttırmayı hedefleyen ekonomik bütünleşme, insanoğlunun iktisadi çıkarlarına hizmet ettiğinden daha fazla, onun güvenlik dürtülerine hizmet etmektedir; ekonomik entegrasyon, bölgeselciliğin ve dolayısıyla güvenlik sağlama ve güç elde etmenin bir aracı olarak kullanılmaktadır. Ekonomik bütünleşmelerin bugün en yüksek seviyesini temsil eden Avrupa Birliği, iktisadi bölge-güvenlik bölgesi-güç bölgesi triyosunun çok açık bir modelidir. Çalışmada küreler bölgeleri, küre ise dünyayı sembolize etmektedir
