Stratejik etkinin varlığı ve işbirliği olasılığı, İpek Yolu güzergahında yer alan ekonomilerin hacminin artması, Ukrayna savaşından alınan dersler ve enerji kaynaklarının yoğunlaşması nedeniyle hattın yeniden kritik hale gelmesine neden olmuştur. Dolayısıyla burada güzergah çevresindeki ülkelerin, Avrupa merkezli dünya yapısına son verebilecek ölçüde İpek Yolu girişimleriyle arz, tüketim, ulaşım, turistik ve kültürel unsurların sağlanmasında önemli bir role yükseleceği tartışılmaktadır. Bu yüzyılda Çin ve Hindistan'ın başını çektiği Asya ekonomileri dünya ekonomileri arasında muazzam bir ticaret hacmine ulaşırken, Türkiye tarihi, kültürel, dini ve coğrafi konumu nedeniyle Asya ve Avrupa arasında çok stratejik bir potansiyele sahiptir. Savaşın hem AB'yi hem de Rusya'yı zayıflatan olumsuz etkisi nedeniyle Türk Dünyası, gerek enerji kaynakları gerekse ticaret değerleri ile Asya-Avrupa-Afrika ticaret yolu üzerinde stratejik bir konuma yükselmiştir. Bu çalışma, İpek ve Baharat ticaret yollarının 21. Yüzyılda Türk Dünyası için tarihte neden önemli bir yere ve stratejik öneme sahip olduğuna odaklanmakta ve ipek yolu girişiminin yüksek hacimli sosyo-ekonomik faaliyetlerin ve siyasi ittifakların potansiyellerini olumlu yönde etkileyeceğini ileri sürmektedir.

The Rebirth Potential of the Silk Road from Geostrategic and Islamic Perspectives

Öz

The presence of strategic impact, and the possibility of the collaboration have caused the line to become critical again due to the increase in the volume of the economies located on the Silk Road route, lessons learned from Ukranian war and the concentration of energy resources. Therefore, here it is argued that the countries around the route shall rose to an essential role in the supply, consumption, transportation, touristic and cultural elements via Silk Road initiatives to the extend that it can bring an end to the Euro-centric world structure. In this Century, while Asian economies, led by China and India, reached an enormous trade volume among world economies, Turkey has the potential to become very strategic between Asia and Europa due to its historical, cultural, religious and cographical position. Due to negative impact of te war that weaken both EU and Russia, The Turkish World has been promoted to a strategic position on the Asia-Europe-Africa trade route, both with its energy resources and trade values. This study focuses on why the Silk and Spice trade routes have an important place in history and strategic importance for the Turkish World in the 21st Century and asserts that the silk road initiative will positively effect the potentials of high volumed socio-economic activities and political alliaces.
