Turkey as a New Semi-periphery in the Age of Globalization.

      Аннотация: Taking globalization seriously, this book aims to bring the concept of semi-peripheriality back to IPE literature with an up-to-date and analytically valid conceptualization of it under the dynamics of contemporary globalization. To that end, it first provides a comprehensive critique of the ontological and the epistemological deficiencies commonly associated with previous accounts of World System research. Later, mainly drawing on neo-Gramscian approach and theory of global capitalism, the book moves beyond these theoretical limitations, and presents a neo-Gramscian-inspired articulation of new semi-periphery by giving special references to transnationalization phenomenon and the role of transnationally-oriented economic and social forces within and above states. Building on this perspective, the book also places the matter into an empirical context by taking Turkey as a case study of export-oriented new semi-periphery. Particularly, the transnationalization of Turkish economy and state structure is analysed as a manifestation of new semi-peripheriality under dynamics of neo-liberal globalization.
