Türkiye’s National Security and the Middle East

Öz

This study analyzes the evolution of the practices and policies of national security in Türkiye. It examines how the understanding of national security in Türkiye has evolved since its establishment with a particular focus on the place of the Middle East. The study first reviews existing definitions and scholarly work on national security. Second, it analyzes the evolution of national security conceptions by focusing on how policymakers understand and implement this concept. To achieve this, it identifies local and global political events that have influenced the way national security is understood and practiced in Türkiye. The paper then narrows its focus to trace the construction of national security understanding over the past decade, highlighting its transformation following conflicts in the Middle East. It concludes that after the uprisings in the MENA, as conflicts in the region intensified, the Turkish government began redefining the state’s national security framework in relation to geographies beyond its borders, shaping the state’s security narrative accordingly.
