Özet:

Certain serious doubts have emerged about the validity of discourse and policies, which see US as the unique super power that plays the role of a systemic organiser. Parallel with the ineffectualness of regulatory measures the US has been undertaken at several parts of the world, numerous numbers of countries, foremost China and Russia have developed in economical/technological areas. This development has reflected upon their diplomatic capabilities. This advance also limits the systemic efficiency of the US. Therefore, today we do not refer to a world order that based on unipolarity and structured over the American hegemony, but of a systemic outlook configured by multipolarity. Black Sea Basin also takes a pivotal part in these debates. A region, which is rich in terms of energy resources, located at the centre of energy projects, owns a great potential in economic and demographic terms and interiorises a multipartite geographic/political substructure, is impossible to avoid from the international systemic debates. The significance of the Black Sea Basin pursuant to the international system could be understood by looking the role of this region regarding the policies of Russia, EU and also Turkey, which aims to locate herself as a regional balancer. This present study will try to make sense of the regional outlook of Black Sea Basin within the scope of the debates on multipolarity.
