This study aims to
measure and analyze the perceptions and attitudes of South Caucasian students,
who have been educating in Turkish higher education institutions, on Turkey
before and after their arrival in Turkey within the framework of the “soft
power” mentality, that Turkey has recently opted for. Via the survey
establishing the core of this study, it is intended to measure whether there is
a change of perception on Turkey before and after the students’ arrival in
Turkey, and if there is a change of perception, this study tries to understand
the direction of it. Moreover, this study also targets to put forward the
common values between Turkey and South Caucasian countries, as well as to
advise on what can be done to develop cooperation in the field of education and
to strengthen the cultural ties and, additionally, social memory among regional
countries. In other words, this study intends to put forward whether the South
Caucasian students’ perception of Turkey has progressively developed during
their stay in Turkey.
