Apstrakt

Bez obzira na postojeće konflikte, dvadeset prvi vek je pretežno vek meke moći, najizraženije u Evropi. Turska, koja geografski pripada Evropi i Aziji, traži ostvarivanje svojih spoljnopolitičkih prioriteta i menja svoju metodologiju vođenja spoljne politike. Korišćenje meke moći zasnovane na nacionalnoj kulturi, političkim vrednostima, religiji, ekonomiji, institucijama i međunarodnim odnosima na početku 21. veka predstavljalo je radikalan zaokret u poređenju sa ranijim istorijskim pokušajima. Kroz istoriju, Turska je koristila tvrdu moć u regionu, ali je bila uglavnom neuspešna. Stoga je priroda meke moći predstavljala priliku za jačanje Turske kao regionalne sile i kvalitativnu promenu negativnih stereotipa o ovoj zemlji. Međutim, očigledno je da meka moć u promenjenim regionalnim bezbednosnim okolnostima u poslednjim godinama druge dekade 21. veka nije dovoljna, pa je Turska ponovo počela koristiti tvrdu moć (vojnu) radi jačanja svoje vođstvene pozicije. Ovaj rad objašnjava meku moć Republike Turske u MENA regionu i nedavnu reorijentaciju ka kombinaciji vojne snage i diplomatskog uticaja u međunarodnim odnosima. Koliko će to preuređenje u spoljnoj politici pozicionirati Tursku u novim bezbednosnim i političkim okolnostima na početku treće dekade 21. veka ostaje da se vidi.
