KÜRESEL İKLIM DEĞIŞIKLIĞI TEHDIDINE KARŞI ŞEHIR DIPLOMASISI: U20 VAKA ÇALIŞMASI

Öz

Şehir diplomasisi, 20. yüzyılda uluslararası ilişkilerde daha düşük profilli bir uygulama alanına sahipken, 21. yüzyılda özellikle küresel iklim değişikliği ile mücadelede sonuç almak için yeni arayışlara yönelmiştir. Sınır Ötesi Krizler Çağı'nda yer alan bu makalenin araştırma sorusu, şehirlerin neden küresel sorunların çözümüne dahil olmaları gerektiğini ve U20 vaka çalışmasına katkıda bulunma kapasitelerini incelemektir. Bu çalışma, Urban 20 (U20) vaka çalışması yöntemiyle inceleyerek uluslararası ilişkiler şehir diplomasisi literatürüne katkı sağlamayı amaçlamaktadır. 21. yüzyılın önceki yüzyıllardan en büyük farkı, küresel ısınma ve Corona pandemisi örneklerinde olduğu gibi sorunların sınır aşan ve küresel olması ve hiçbir uluslararası kuruluş, devlet veya diğer aktörün çözemeyeceği için ortak hareket etme motivasyonunun ön plana çıkmasıdır. bu sorunlar tek başına Bu yazıda öncelikle şehir diplomasisi ve uluslararası yerel diplomasi teşkilatları hakkında kısaca bilgi verilmiş, ardından geyik avu teorisi ile şehirler arası işbirliğinin küresel sorunlarla mücadelede faydalı olabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır. Ayrıca şehir diplomasisinin uluslararası ilişkiler üzerinde sınırlı bir etkiye sahip olduğu ve yasal yaptırım gücünün olmadığı sonucuna varılmıştır.

CITY DIPLOMACY AGAINST THE GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE THREAT: U20 CASE STUDY

Öz

City diplomacy has turned to new searches in the 21st century to get results especially in the fight against global climate change, while it had a lower profile application area in international relations in the 20th century. The research question of this article, in the Age of Transboundary Crises, is to examine why cities need to be involved in solving global problems and their capacity to contribute in the U20 case study. This study aims to contribute to the international relations city diplomacy literature by examining Urban 20 (U20) with the case study method. The biggest difference of the 21st century from previous centuries is that the problems are transboundary and global, as in the examples of global warming and the Corona pandemic, and the motivation to act jointly takes priority because no international organization, state or other actors can solve these problems alone. In this article, brief information about city diplomacy and international local diplomacy organizations is given at first, and then, it is concluded that cooperation between cities can be beneficial in combating global problems with multi-layered stag hunt theory. It is also concluded that city diplomacy has a limited effect on international relations and does not have a legal sanction power.
