Özet:

Over the past century, the influence and decision-making power of international organizations among the major actors in global politics has been increasing. In addition to their core roles such as promoting peace, security, and welfare, international organizations also serve to maximize the interests of their member states and improve intergovernmental relations. In this context, this study discusses the current potential and future prospects of the Organization of Turkic States, a regional organization with deep historical roots and intellectual depth, in the context of global and regional relations. In order for the relatively new Organization of Turkic States to become a significant player on the global stage, the political, military, and economic potential of its member countries in both individual and collective contexts have been analyzed using reliable and up-to-date data and political realities, and the findings and relevant literature are used to offer some insights into the organization's future direction and policies. In order to carry out the analysis, various conceptual and theoretical explanations, historical background and data sets to help explain the current situation were used. In this context, firstly, the philosophical and ideological views that form the basis of the Organization are summarized. Then, the level of institutionalization of the Organization of Turkish States was examined. The establishment and basic structure of the organization has been tried to be explained in a dialectic ranging from historical level to legal texts, from the organs of the organization to its functioning. Thanks to these explanations, with the infrastructure to be obtained, the potentials of the member countries of the organization will be discussed both on the basis of member countries and at a comparative level with a successful sample. In order to reveal the current and future potential of the Organization of Turkish States, appropriate qualitative and quantitative raw data published by reliable national and international organizations was transformed into findings in a certain systematic way for the analysis planned to be carried out on various parameters. This will allow us to build a guiding infrastructure to reveal the political, military, and economic potential of the Organization of Turkic States, which has been an ideal for around a century and a half, at both the national and universal levels.
