AB’nin genişlemesi, Avrupa değerlerinin sınırlarını
genişletmek ve tüm kıtanın menfaati için istikrar ve güvenliği sağlamayı
amaçlayan bir araçtır. Öte yandan Türkiye, üye olmak adına AB’nin genişleme
sürecinde önemli adımlar attı. Fakat tam üyeliğe ulaşmak, birçok kendine özgü
sınırlar ve çeşitli argümanlardan dolayı başarısız olarak kalmaktadır. Bu
çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye’nin üyeliğine karşı argümanları iyi bir şekilde
anlamak ve Türkiyenin Ab üyesi olmasının AB için ne kadar iyi fırsat olduğunu
soruları yanıtlayarak göstermektir. Bu araştırmanın  bulgularına dayanarak, Türkiye’nin AB
üyeliğini kabul edilmesi halinde AB’nin sosyal, güçlü ekonomik, siyasi ve
güvenlik açısından fayda sağlayabileceği sonucuna varılmıştır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

AB’nin Genişlemesi, Türkiye’nin AB Üyeliği, Türkiye’nin Rolü, AB’ye Katılım İkilemi, İslamofobi

Possible Impacts and Potential Benefits from Turkey in the EU’s Enlargement Process

Öz

EU’s enlargement is a tool for extending the borders
of European values and aiming to consolidating stability and security for the
benefit of all across the continent. Turkey, on the other hand, has made
significant steps to become a member in the EU’s enlargement process. However,
reaching for a full member are remain unsuccessful, due to many self-limited
dimensions and various arguments. The purposes of this study was to develop understanding
of the arguments against Turkey’s membership and trying to answer questions,
how enlargement to Turkey’s EU member is a great opportunity for the EU. This
investigation focuses on various empirical studies which will analyze whether
is it valid to agree that Turkey could be an asset. Based on the findings of
this investigation, it was concluded that the EU may benefit if it accepts
Turkey’s EU membership on social, strong economic, political and security
matters.
