Samuel P. Huntington'ın Medeniyetler Çatışması' ve Immanuel Wallerstein'ın Dünya Sistemleri Analizi'nin karşılaştırılması

Both "The Clash of Civilizations" and "The World Systems Analysis" have vital importance to shape the policy of the future. In this study, the civilizational division which is suggested by Samuel P. Huntington is going to be compared to the work of Immanuel Wallerstein "world systems theory" which has an economic stance to the conflicts. As a starting point, Samuel P. Huntington's book "Clash of Civilizations" is going to be analyzed, and next, Immanuel Wallerstein's "World Systems Analysis" is going to be summed up. Both approaches have their own claims, and both approaches deal with the recent past. While Huntington takes matters from the window of policy, Wallerstein's approach is from an economic point of view. There are accurate cases for both theses. The accuracy stems from the historic recurrence which means "history repeats itself."
