In recent years, Turkey has become an ever more important actor on the international stage. However, Turkey-EU relations still remain in a state of flux. The EU and Turkey seem to have moved apart in their political aspirations after Turkey's EU accession talks faced a stalemate over the Republic of Cyprus' EU accession as a divided island. Likewise, both Turkey and the EU have recently faced new socio-political realities, such as the Eurozone crisis, the Arab Spring and the Turkish government's shifting foreign policy towards the Middle East region. Such developments have rendered EU membership potentially a less desirable prospect for an increasingly self-confident Turkey.
In light of these recent events, this book explores the evolving challenges and opportunities facing the more than 50-year old Turkey-EU relationship. This volume focuses particularly on the role of the Cyprus issue, the potential for closer Turkey-EU cooperation in the aftermath of the Arab Spring, the impact on Turkish citizens and politics, as well as the concept of Europeanization, especially in relation to Turkey's democratic reform process. In drawing together perspectives from the disciplines of international relations, political science and law, this book offers a unique, interdisciplinary outlook towards the changing role of Europe in Turkey's political discourse.
This book will be of interest to researchers and students of Turkey-EU relations, EU external relations Law, Europeanization and Turkish and Middle Eastern politics.
Описание: The Middle East and North Africa is one of the least globally and regionally integrated regions in the world. Although it is home to 5.5 percent of the world's population and 3.9 percent of the world's gross domestic product, the region's share of nonoil world trade is only 1.8 percent. Today's policy makers face critical development challenges that have been brought to the forefront by the Arab Spring, which they can address by boosting growth, fostering diversification, and stimulating employment.<br><br>This book summarises the constraints to and opportunities for deepening economic integration within the region and beyond. In addition to trade and investment reform, the book discusses other dimensions of economic integration including physical connectivity, cross-border trade facilitation, infrastructure networks, and the vital role of logistics services. It notes that building strategic infrastructure networks while opening infrastructure services to competition and trade could help reduce production costs, increase foreign direct investment, promote knowledge spillovers, and expand markets. And logistics performance, which varies substantially across the region, can be improved through more efficient border crossing facilities and better monitoring and harmonising of customs performance. Finally, citing the large number of preferential trade agreements in place, <em>Regional Economic Integration in the Middle East and North Africa: Beyond Trade Reform</em> stresses that these agreements can serve as a stepping-stone to global market integration.

Описание: Numerous studies address the flow of information between nations and states -- especially in the era of globalization -- and its contribution to the development of relations across physical borders. By contrast, little attention has been paid to the circumstances under which parties in conflict initiate and build barriers to free flow of information. The conflict in the Middle East may serve as a test bed of controlled disruption of information flow, as covered in Reporting the Middle East: Challenges and Chances. Two parallel types of confrontations appear to take place in the Middle East: the actual physical conflict, and the 'war of words, ' conducted via the media, with each side firing its own verbal missiles. Reporting the Middle East: Challenges and Chances aims to show that the media arena is a key element in understanding the Middle East conflict. Media coverage of Middle Eastern affairs remains critical, if only because of its power in determining sources of information, setting decision makers' agendas, and influencing management of the physical confrontation.
