Article Jasper Johns' Flag: Beyond Realism and Abstraction(Dokuz Eylül Üniversitesi, 2020) Keki, BaşakJasper Johns is one of the most provocative American artists of the twentieth century who has shaped the perception of art and has influenced generations of artists. This paper examines one of his most important works, Flag (1955), regarding it as a work defying easy categorizations as either a realist or an abstract work. Without being identified as either kind, it nevertheless displays certain traits of both. As for its suggestion of realism, the work comes up as a response to its political, cultural and artistic context, challenging Cold War aesthetics; albeit in a mocking manner. Its ridicule is evident in its allusion to the concept of ideology via its ‘kitschy’ subject matter whilst its delicately painted surface exhibits brushstrokes reminiscent of abstract expressionism. Yet the work also confronts presumptions of abstract expressionists by drawing attention to their implicit conventionalism despite their claims for authenticity and uniqueness. It will be argued that by calling the notion of identity in question, the work suspends and surpasses neat categories and sparks even further controversy by hinting at postmodern art and evoking ready-mades simultaneously.Article Nato and Public Diplomacy: Opportunities and Constraints of 21st Century(SAM, 2021) Güleç, CansuThe main objective of this paper is to explain and interpret the evolution of NATO’s public diplomacy efforts in terms of the opportunities and limi- tations of today’s globalized environment. Public diplomacy refers to the efforts of states and non-state actors to better explain their values to the world. It concentrates particularly on “soft power” tools, such as science, art, culture, sports and media that enable interaction between societies. Because NATO is widely associated with security and defense issues, it is important to understand how it responds to the developments of today’s diplomatic trends with its own public diplomacy and communication ac- tivities. As technology continues to change and evolve, NATO’s commu- nication strategies have faced new types of networks and platforms. Now celebrating its 72nd anniversary, the Alliance seeks to embrace and imple- ment a contemporary communication policy with new mechanisms. Within this framework, this paper will provide a definition of the concept of public diplomacy, and explore the historical evolution of NATO’s public diploma- cy agenda. NATO’s coordination activities and values, practical means of communication and their expected impact will be discussed.Article Gerilen Türk-rus İlişkileri Bağlamında Nato’nun Rolü ve Etkisi Ne Olabilir?(2016) Kibaroğlu, MustafaTürk - Rus İlişkileriArticle Dağlık Karabağ Sorunu: Ermenistan için Çözümsüz Çatışma Olmasının Nedenleri(Milli Savunma Üniversitesi, 2015) Güleç, CansuThe conflict between Armenian and Azerbaijan around Nagorno-Karabakh was violent between 1988 and 1994. Nevertheless, Nagorno-Karabakh dispute is regarded as one of the frozen conflicts, which has been witnessed for many years. In order to stop and contain the conflict, other states and international organizations advocated peaceful settlement. However, the problem went through a number of phases and has not reached a final solution despite of many years of negotiation under the auspices of the OSCE Minsk Group. In this context, the objective of this paper is to understand the main impeding factors that prevent peaceful resolution and establishment of a long-lasting peace for Armenia. As a framework to analyze the case of Armenia-Azerbaijan dispute over Nagorno-Karabakh, this paper uses the "constructivist theory", which explains national histories and identities as fluid, evolving, and formed over time, and which claims that it is mainly social relationships between agents, structures, and institutions that can lead to ethnic conflicts. Contrary to the primordialist approach, which treats ethnic groups as concrete and independent entities that exist inherently, the explanation of intractability within a constructivist framework constitutes the main difference. In view of this, government policies are also constructed according to interstate perceptions, expectations and the concepts developed towards themselves and others. As a result, rather than only including one-dimensional "ancient hatred" paradigm; "the problem of security", "image of enemy", "other countries" involvement with having interests in the region", and most importantly "internal politics" can be regarded as the contributors to intractability for Armenia.Article 2019 Yılında Türk Dış Politikasının Manevra Alanı Genişleyebilir(BİLGESAM, 2019) Kibaroğlu, MustafaBu yazımızda, Türkiye’nin ABD, Rusya, AB ve İran ile olan ilişkilerinde hassas bir denge yakalaması yoluyla, dış politika ve güvenlik konularında kendini daha avantajlı bir konuma getirmesine katkı yapabilecek siyasi, iktisadi ve askeri unsurları ele alacağız.Article İklim Güvenliği Kavramının Türkiye İklim Politikasındaki Yeri(Alternatif Politika, 2017) Gönenç, Defne; Kibaroğlu, AyşegülThis article elaborates on the concept of climate security as a subfield of environmental security research agenda, and investigatesthe place of climate security concept in Turkey’s climate policies.First, the evolution of the environmental security concept in theliterature is elaborated.
