Abstract

Structurally, Qatar and Türkiye face different International Relations challenges—Turkey is a regional middle power with significant hard power resources, while Qatar is an ambitious small state with relatively scarce military capabilities. Nevertheless, the Arab Uprisings of 2011 and the shift from unipolarity to multipolarity provided the context for a dramatic acceleration in bilateral relations. In the decade and a half since those tumultuous events sent shockwaves across the Arab world, this relationship flourished to the extent that it can be located firmly on the alignment end of the alignment-rapprochement-discord-friction continuum. This paper assesses the extent that the concept of derivative power—whereby a small state derives power by convincing a larger state to take actions that boost its interests—played a role in driving forward this relationship during the embargo of Qatar between 2017 and 2021.

卡塔尔禁运期间的卡塔尔-土耳其关系:衍生权力案例研究
从结构上看,卡塔尔和土耳其面临着不同的国际关系挑战--土耳其是一个拥有大量硬实力资源的地区中等强国,而卡塔尔是一个雄心勃勃的小国,军事能力相对匮乏。然而,2011 年的阿拉伯起义以及单极化向多极化的转变为双边关系的急剧加速提供了背景。在这些动荡事件震惊整个阿拉伯世界后的十五年间,两国关系蓬勃发展,以至于可以将其牢牢定位在 "结盟--缓和--分歧--摩擦 "这一连续统一体的结盟一端。本文评估了衍生权力的概念--即小国通过说服大国采取促进其利益的行动来获得权力--在 2017 年至 2021 年对卡塔尔的禁运期间在多大程度上推动了这一关系的发展。
