Enformasyon Emperyalizmi ve Güvenlik: Siber Saldırılar, Dezenformasyon ve Devlet Savunma Stratejileri
Öz
Bu makale, bilgi teknolojilerinin jeopolitik araçlara dönüşümünü ifade eden enformasyon emperyalizmi kavramını, küresel ilişkilerde siber güvenlik ve stratejik bilgi politikaları bağlamında incelemektedir. Çalışma, yapısal realizm ve inşacılık temelli metodolojik bir çerçeve kullanarak, hem devlet hem de devlet dışı aktörlerin dezenformasyon, dijital diplomasi ve siber operasyonlardan yararlanarak küresel güç dinamiklerini nasıl yeniden şekillendirdiklerini araştırmaktadır. Makalenin yeniliği, enformasyon emperyalizmini yalnızca medya kontrolü olarak değil, aynı zamanda siber uzayda yumuşak güç ve teknolojik hegemonya biçimi olarak ele almasında yatmaktadır. Bulgular, USAID gibi kurumların küresel bilgi akışlarını yönetmede merkezi bir rol oynadığını ve bu yolla jeopolitik rekabeti etkilediğini ortaya koymaktadır. Azerbaycan gibi ülkeler için makale, dijitalleşmiş küresel rekabet çağında bilgi güvenliği için kurumsal ve hukuki mekanizmalar inşa etmenin stratejik bir zorunluluk olduğunun altını çizmektedir.

This article examines the concept of infoimperialism—the transformation of information technologies into geopolitical instruments—within the context of cybersecurity and strategic information politics in global affairs. Using a methodological framework based on structural realism and constructivism, the study explores how both state and non-state actors leverage disinformation, digital diplomacy, and cyber operations to reshape global power dynamics. The novelty of the article lies in framing infoimperialism not merely as media control but as a form of soft power and technological hegemony in cyberspace. Findings suggest that institutions like USAID play a central role in managing global information flows, thereby influencing geopolitical competition. For countries like Azerbaijan, the article emphasizes the strategic necessity of building institutional and legal mechanisms for information security in an era of digitalized global rivalry.
