Bir Bölgeselcilik Örneği Olarak KEİ Bağlamında Karabağ Çatışmasının Yansımaları

Abstract

Mevcut çalışma, bölgeselcilik kavramsallaştırması üzerinden Karadeniz Ekonomik İşbirliği Örgütü (KEİ) bağlamında Karabağ çatışmasının etkisi ve yansımalarını araştırmaktadır. Karabağ çatışmasının, tesis edilmesinden itibaren KEİ’nin duraksamasının başat nedeni olduğu temel savı çerçevesinde, öncelikle bölge ve bölgeselcilik kavramlarına ilişkin özet bir açıklama sunmaktadır. İkinci olarak, KEİ’nin doğuşu, evrimi ve duraksamasına dair bilgi vermektedir. Üçüncü olarak, ulusal ve uluslararası haber arşivlerinden elde edilen veriler temelinde Karabağ çatışmasının yansımalarını incelemektedir. Dördüncü olarak, söz konusu verilerin, bölgeselcilik dahilindeki ilgili alt savlar temelinde yorumlanmasına çalışılmaktadır. Nihai tahlilde, Karabağ çatışmasının devamlılığı dikkate alındığında, KEİ’nin gelecekte yüksek durağanlık olasılığı teyit edilmektedir.

The Implications Of The Karabagh Conflict In The Context Of BSEC As A Regionalism Case

Abstract

This paper inquires the impact and the implications of the Karabagh conflict in the Black Sea Economic Cooperation (BSEC) context through the conceptualization of regionalism. In the framework of the main argument that the Karabagh conflict stands as a major reason for the stagnation of the BSEC since its establishment, it first provides a brief account on the concepts of region and regionalism. Second, it provides information on the birth, the evolution, and the stagnation of the BSEC. Third, it investigates the reverberations of the Karabagh conflict on the basis of the data collected from the national and the international news archives. Fourth, it attempts to construe the data on the basis of the relevant sub-arguments in regionalism. In the final analysis, the high likelihood of the stagnation of the BSEC is affirmed, given the persistence of the Karabagh conflict.
