Turkey, DAF Meydan #26 - "ENERJEOPOLİTİK" - Ellis Thompson

JA opolitig's founder, Friedrich Ratzel, "In this small planet, there is only needed a
place for a great state," said someone, the state had demonstrated clearly the nature of
the expansionist desires. Ratzel also mentioned, although it is not established from a
negative place, doing well to expand its determination to sustain the existence of the
state can provide. National-Socialist ideas Lebensraum- the gift that embodies the concept
of living space with this in mind. ---- Geopolitics, especially one of the most referenced
approach when analyzing international politics. Fukuyama's End of History thesis of
Huntington's Clash of Civilizations; Greater Middle East Project of the Brzezinski's Grand
Chessboard, keeps the pulse of the current geopolitical approach to international
politics. In a state history to be read from this perspective, the 19th century in
Germany, the rise of the US in international politics in the 20th century, before the coal
can be claimed to be related to subsequent control of oil.
But the 20th century was marked by a new paradigm of international politics: Renewable
energy idea ... the State of the determination of foreign policy, the largest cases in
influencing these policies even non-state economic and political actors, was renewable energy.
This idea not only with foreign policy, the new definition of capitalism, was the effects
of global companies that are discussed world politics. A majority of geopoliticians
approach end of this period was associated with conspiracy theory.
In political science, the objectivity of geopoliticians approach is controversial.
Brezezins example, the US President is Carter's adviser. Therefore, it is not expected to
be impartial reading of international politics.
Jeopolotikç approach has already produced a new argument against this discredit justified
or unjustified. When the government of the Republic of Turkey thought that the focus on
what matters in international politics in recent months, this will be more readily
understood. States' energy policy balance is changing every day. This balance may affect
the current policy, states can determine its position in international politics.
Geopoliticians this case, the foreign policy and to play a role in the new energy order of
the actors in the international system has been pushed to come up with a new concept that
basis: Enerjeopolitik.
This approach is based on a transition to renewable energy and oil and gas will remain
important in this process. Even in this process, which was previously the case in the oil
and gas monopolies (such as the US and EU) against new actors (Brazil, Russia, China, and
India) will appear. Global politics has a primary role in configuring the oil and natural
gas use is still increasing rapidly. Not surprisingly, as the Middle East, North Africa,
the Caucasus, the Caspian Basin and the actual basis of the global political and economic
strife in Central Asia it stands in the middle energy.
Erdogan Enerjeopolitik Background
Passing through a period of accelerated developments related to the peace process, Tayyip
Erdogan, March 17, TANAP, namely the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline, in a speech at
the opening of the Kars foot, "Kurdish problem, there is no such thing," he said. However,
similar as in every speech, the state carried out the powers of speech "backgrounds," he
emphasized a lot. But Erdogan, Turkey's energy and the sentences that he founded during
his speech stressed that the transportation corridor, and to understand what mood it is
edited, the speech "background" may be useful to think about that with interest.
Energy Minister Taner Yildiz and Tayyip Erdogan, President, in the last period, Romania
from Azerbaijan to Iran from Russia until, in a feverish work. In each of these studies it
takes a new location, which answered the questions on the political conjuncture, state the
nature of matter that are related to the place where speaking. Get every venue, from
becoming places where statesmen, told the state at stake, it's to discuss the reasons, in
terms of places to understand the policies that shaped the importance.
What TANAP?
Taner Yildiz Qandil had intended to seek oil; Tayyip Erdogan will come together they reap
in Turkey, it gives the signal that a major energy distribution company and every
statement made in it are all trying to reflect a project recently played a lot in our
ears. The intervention of the US dollar against the claim, the nature of which has an
agreement worth $ 10 billion; at II in this regard. After the First World War and the EU's
origin is considered "Coal and Steel Community" is likened to that first TANAP agreement
was signed in 2012.
1850 km long in total, which will be the twenty provinces of Canakkale Kars
Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline Project, created by agreement between BOTAS and
Azerbaijani State Oil Company SOCAR. Shah Deniz 2 will be released from the project
targeted the Caspian Sea Gas Field gas to Europe to meet. 30% of the shares BOTAS, SOCAR
has more than its share of 58% in an unspoken partners, with a 12% stake in the project,
BP employees with policies to overcome its crisis now also be conducted in Eurasia.
BP Azerbaijan, Georgia and Turkey Region President Gordon Birell, the importance of the
project in place along with Turkey, "Turkey is an important energy center in the last 5-10
years. Our partner in TANAP is an important step for us. TANAP is an important opportunity
for Turkey's energy security, "he raves imposition planned projects already begun; The
project draws attention to the actual big foot.
What is planned for the whole project, mainly the following: South Caucasus Pipeline (SCP)
and Shah Deniz in Azerbaijan's Caspian Sea 2 gas produced in the Gas Field and other
fields, first to Turkey, that TANAP, and then to the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) with
Greece, Albania and will be transported to Europe via Italy. Taner Yildiz, "tried to
remove political obstacles but it will not be a political obstacle to this project," the
statement, the TANAP's already kind of a "matter of honor" in the nature of what is told
to return.
New Energy Order
Insist on the geopolitical importance of fixed points where necessary, browse underlined;
Russia, which canceled stemming from developments in Ukraine South Stream project, the gas
will be replaced with a new project to pass through Turkey and Greece. Erdogan talks
conducted recently and Çipras Putin's visit to Russia will have to read it here.
Well, after Iran's nuclear negotiations with the United States, despite the criticism made
by Iran need to understand how the Erdogan Iran is going to occur? The answer to the new
geopoliticians, New Silk Road project. This project, prepared the way for China's
commercial concerns intersect with the land and sea in Turkey. However, Yemen is located
on one of the roads. Therefore, a need to read the movement in Yemen here! On the other
hand, although not in the agenda, and a foot in Kenya through which the Silk Road 150
people were massacred by radical Islamic Co-Shabab.
This kind of reading it, Energy Minister Taner Yildiz, we can sense the search of oil Qandil.
Energy, Annuity and War Triangle
Natural gas projects, new trade agreements .. environment gained pace of global economic
and political developments, this rate does not need to be a strategist to see who would
profit. To understand that oil and natural gas as energy politics and the economy still
more how important it can be ... the one-day needs of the US Army, Greece known state is
more than the daily requirement, even a sufficient example to understand this.
However, this does not lead us to our global companies önemsizleştirme its role in world
politics and in the economic system. Half of the 20th century, after World War II global
company, we are not in the US-led economic and period can be seen as part of the political
hegemony. Today may not match the security policy of the state and economic objectives of
these global companies. The world nuclear, natural gas or petroleum related considerable
amount of energy in a global organization and have a say in their world politics.
We are oppressed, important to put the matter where the evaluation criteria. TANAP project
and similar projects, our assessment will be enriched by the wealth of the capitalists
what projects, nor are states which increase the limit on existing governing power in
global politics. Already in the middle energy demand what belongs to the people, nor the
millions who claim to be recovered will be distributed to the public.
Global politics and war emerged in the capitalist economy is the only table that
accelerated in the period. Papers signed earlier will sometimes appear as tables and
sometimes attack as a bomb.
