اتفاقية التجارة الحرة بين تركيا والمملكة المتحدة في سياق الدبلوماسية الاقتصادية

Year 2022, Volume: 11 Issue: 1, 147 - 172, 01.01.2022

Abstract

يتناول هذ البحث العلاقة بين الدبلوماسية الاقتصادية واتفاقيات التجارة الحرة، من خلال التركيز على اتفاقيات التجارة الحرة بين تركيا والمملكة البريطانية المتحدة التي دخلت حيز التنفيذ في عام 2021. في البداية، يقدم البحث مفهوم الدبلوماسية الاقتصادية، وهي قضية مهمّة، لأنّها تؤكد أن اتفاقيات التجارية الثنائية التي تفضلها العديد من الدول في الوقت الحاضر؛ يمكن استخدامها أداة للدبلوماسية الاقتصادية. ثم يناقش البحث تاريخ وتطور اتفاقيات التجارة الحرة التي وقعتها تركيا، بما في ذلك تجربتها الطويلة في التكامل الاقتصادي مع الاتحاد الأوروبي. وقد بدأت جهود تركيا في إبرام اتفاقيات التجارة الحرة في التسعينيات، لكنها تركزت وتسارعت منذ مطالع الألفة الثالثة. ويستند البحث كذلك إلى الأسباب الاقتصادية والسياسية الكامنة وراء الاتفاقيات الاقتصادية الحرة في تلخيص أسباب توصل تركيا والمملكة المتحدة إلى مثل هذه الاتفاقيات. ويختتم البحث بتحليل العلاقات الاقتصادية بين البلدين، ويتناول تفصيلات الاتفاقية في سياق التغييرات التي توفرها.

The Turkey-UK Free Trade Agreement in Terms of Economic Diplomacy

Year 2022, Volume: 11 Issue: 1, 147 - 172, 01.01.2022

Abstract

This article scrutinizes relations between economic diplomacy and free trade agreements by focusing on the Turkey-UK free trade agreements which came into force in 2021. Accordingly, the article first introduces the concept of economic diplomacy, an important issue as it has been shown that bilateral trade agreements, nowadays preferred by many countries, can be used as a tool of economic diplomacy. The article then discusses the history and development of free trade agreements signed by Turkey, including its long-running experience of economic integration with the European Union. Based on economic and political reasons underlying the free economic agreements, the reasons why Turkey and the UK have reached such an agreement are summarized. Economic relations between the two countries are then analyzed and the details of the agreement are investigated in the context of the changes that it provides.
