Devletin dönüşümü ve aktörlerin çoğalışı: Türkiye ve Güney Kore'nin 21.yy'da orta güç olarak yükselişleri

Both countries have exerted their power over their foreign policy thanks to the transformation the states went through, while both states are taking part in the liberal global economy. In this thesis, it is hoped to contribute to the middle power literature, and to discuss the manifestation of the internal transformation to the foreign policy. Türkiye and South Korea are taken as cases through Process Tracing method and the state transformation they went through is studied with a Neo-Gramscian approach.
