Thus in the basis of British and American strategies towards the Eastern Mediterranean and Cyprus Island, national interests, which encircle their global hegemony challenges play the most noteworthy role. Besides, there are remarkable issues happening around the island apart from the main dispute between Turkish and Greek Cypriots of the island, known as âCyprus Questionâ. New natural gas berths discovered under the seabed drew the eyes of the regional states as well as global powers such as the Unites States of America, the United Kingdom (UK), the Russian Federation, and European Union towards the waters around the island. Natural energy resources are essential and infact vital for every society and state on earth. Apart from this fact, regional states of the Eastern-Med attempted quickly for seeking ways to delimitate maritime areas of the Eastern-Med in line with the arrangements of the law of the sea. However, there is a very-far, but in fact a so-close hegemon in the Eastern-Med region as if a next-door neighbour. This is the UK, which could easily claim rights on the maritime jurisdiction areas around the island since the UK has two sovereign bases located in the southern part of Cyprus. In this respect, this study has been designed to focus on the Sovereign British Bases on Cyprus, their global connections, and their impacts on the Eastern Mediterranean maritime jurisdiction areas conflict, that is believed to be one of the most prominent, but (un)intentionally overshadowed piece of the Cyprus puzzle.","PeriodicalId":7411,"journal":{"name":"Alternatives: Turkish Journal of International Relations","volume":"60 1","pages":"59-69"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84641156","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The main purpose of the UN is to prevent war and conflicts. In realist perspective it was a holder of balance. In the post-Cold War world order, it has been widely criticized, especially the structure of the UN Security Council, which is composed of just five permanent states. The debates on reforming and reconstructing the UN Security Council came to the world's attention once again with the Arab Spring and Syria crises. This article firstly discusses the UN Security Councils structural problems, reform process and its competency in solving international conflict resolution. Then it moves into analyzing the reform proposals and new perspectives on the UN Security Council. The study emphasizes that the current structure of the UN Security Council is insufficient in conflict resolution, and structural reform required in the context of new international security agendas and norms. The paper argues that the structure and Charter of the UN at present cannot allow or adopt any reform proposals due to opposition from veto bearing members. In order to change the structure and decision making process of the Security Council, firstly the UN has to adopt a new Charter in terms of new future vision.","PeriodicalId":7411,"journal":{"name":"Alternatives: Turkish Journal of International Relations","volume":"69 1","pages":"83-95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74014019","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of which is the re-emergence of regions that were once considered at the periphery of international relations. A good example of this is central Asia. Throughout the Cold War central Asia was an area much maligned in terms of research within the academic field. The re-emergence of the Turkic Republics in this particular geographic region has attracted the attention of policymakers in the western world. The primary country that has gained the greatest importance has been Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan has faced a difficult dilemma: maintaining good relations with two extremely powerful neighbours, namely, the Russian Federation and China. This article aims to shed light on the Multi-vector foreign policy identified by Kazakhstan to not only maintain its stability and existence within a volatile region, but to emerge as the most powerful country in central Asia. The various challenges and opportunities that have been presented to Kazakhstan are analysed and explanations provided for the actions that have been taken in the post-Cold War era. Ultimately this article presents a codification of the concept of a multi-vector foreign policy in action over the past two decades","PeriodicalId":7411,"journal":{"name":"Alternatives: Turkish Journal of International Relations","volume":"16 1","pages":"70-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81412676","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Duarte","doi":"10.21599/ATJIR.32734","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.21599/ATJIR.32734","url":null,"abstract":"The aim of this paper is to contribute to increase knowledge about a remote region of the world, but of utmost importance in the geopolitical context of today - Central Asia - as a result of its strategic position as a link between East and West, a space of competition and reinforcement of the great powers. Besides, the region has been, in recent years, attracting the attention of foreign investors due to the existence of large reserves of oil and gas. The central argument is that Turkey demonstrates a predominantly economic interest (the search for energy resources) towards the region, pursuing fundamentally realistic-driven policies with regard to it. Alternatively to the participant and non-participant observation, difficult techniques to apply to this object of study, we resorted to the semistructured interview. The field research was done through interviews conducted predominantly in Central Asia to key individuals related to the issues studied. Convinced that the behaviour of the states, the power or influence are not likely to translate into tangible realities, mathematical formulas, or mere statistics, we assume that the use of the qualitative method, through the hermeneutic analysis, is the methodology supporting this investigation. We suggest that Turkey inspires itself on the Chinese policy towards Central Asia, which has shown remarkable vigour in recent years, and try to figure out how it can profit from an Ankara-Tehran-Central Asia-Beijing axis, in the context of the Chinese New Silk Road, in order to project its power in the regional sphere and boost (even more) its economy.","PeriodicalId":7411,"journal":{"name":"Alternatives: Turkish Journal of International Relations","volume":"19 1","pages":"31-40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90040475","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study outlines media theories and their relevance to Zimbabwe. In addition, it assesses the impact of the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Holdings' [ZBH] policy of playing one revolutionary song out of every five songs played on air, as a means of sensitizing listeners into supporting the Zimbabwe African National Union Patriotic Front [ZANU-PF]. Hinging on quantitative and qualitative methods the study argues that the policy of playing one revolutionary song out of every five songs, did not necessarily affect the listeners in the manner they were meant to be influenced. A significant number of the Listeners' tastes and mindsets up to date have not been reoriented as the ZBH and the policy making brains behind the scenes had intended. In fact, using radio broadcast to try and manipulate the way people think towards a particular political party's ideology received limited support. It concludes that the majority of radio listeners in Zimbabwe today are no longer interested in the mantra of perpetual liberation war rhetoric.","PeriodicalId":7411,"journal":{"name":"Alternatives: Turkish Journal of International Relations","volume":"28 1","pages":"12-30"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89267704","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
