Investigating the Syrian Crisis and Divergent Middle Eastern Policies with Recommendations and Solutions Regarding the Turkish-American Relations

Abstract

This research article explores how the tensions between Turkey and the USA, two allied nations with a shared history of liberal values dating back to the Ottoman Empire, challenge the conceptual framework through their differing approaches to the Syrian conflict. The primary objective of this study is to analyze how Turkey and the USA address and respond to the Syrian crisis, taking into account their divergent national security concerns and interests influenced by the ongoing global developments. Additionally, the study dwells upon the Turkish societal perceptions posed by the Syrian refugees, drawing on illuminating insights from the existing literature and applying the threat theory perspectives. The study also proposes a set of potential solutions to address these issues, to mitigate the tension, and to enhance a bilateral cooperation. Utilizing a comprehensive literature and document review methodology, this study elucidates the interplay between the Turkish and American policies and explores the negative perception in the Turkish society, including the impacts on the labour markets, economic stability, and cultural norms. The findings highlight that, within the scope of the Syrian conflict, the USA has predominantly pursued a realist approach rather than seeking resolution through the liberal negotiation strategies. Moreover, the findings accentuate the fact that the negative perception of the Syrians to labour markets, job opportunities, economic stability, national resources, and public safety, as well as their alleged involvement in crimes such as terrorism and theft, negatively impacts the Turkish society's traditions, customs, lifestyle, culture, and moral norms. These cultural differences, along with the other issues mentioned, foster a belief in the superiority of the Turkish society over the Syrian society, contributing to a symbolic negative perception of the Syrian refugees in relation to the Turkish identity and societal cohesion.
