Özet:

The aim of this study is to analyze the foundations, evolution and implementation of the security and strategy culture of Turkey, as a country whose society has been constructed through a particular security identification. In this context, the initial aim is to analyze the historical and geopolitical background of Turkey’s security perceptions. Afterwards, the security conceptualization of Turkey and the role played by the military in this process will be analyzed together with the effects of the systemic transformation experienced after the Cold War.
