Klappentext
The Black Sea region has undergone significant political and social transformations over the past few decades, resulting in a new geopolitical reality that demands scholarly attention. This book offers a comprehensive analysis of the evolving security dynamics and the associated narratives in this strategic area. With a particular focus on the interplay between European and regional perspectives, this volume explores the critical role of power, energy policy, and security interests in shaping the region's geopolitical landscape. It examines the resurgence of regional leading powers, notably Russia, which has pursued a militant and aggressive foreign policy to reclaim its dominant position. The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine has had a profound impact on the Black Sea region, leading to political and social crises in reform-oriented states like Armenia, Georgia, and Ukraine.
Moreover, this book delves into Turkey's shifting role in the Black Sea region, as it reevaluates its strategic position between Asia and Europe. The authors analyze Turkey's transition from a cautious and dialogue-oriented regional policy to a more offensive and aggressive foreign policy profile. By considering diverse perspectives, the volume evaluates the prospects for an effective EU foreign policy in the region, examines the potential for sustainable democratic transformation, and explores the growing militarization of Turkish and Russian foreign policies. It also sheds light on the challenges and opportunities for strengthening pluralistic systems in the afflicted states.
Featuring contributions from leading scholars in international security studies and foreign policy, this book offers a timely and in-depth exploration of the Black Sea region's complex dynamics. It will be an indispensable resource for scholars and policymakers seeking to understand the strategic disputes and their implications for European and regional interests.
