    From 'Value-Rational' to 'Purpose-Rational' Foreign Policy: A Shift of Rationality in Turkish Foreign Policy
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2025) Birkan, Onur
    Turkish foreign policy has shifted over the past two decades from a 'value-rational' foreign policy to a more 'purpose-rational' foreign policy. This shift is driven by changes in three key pillars: civilianization of decision-making processes, defense industry advancement, and changes in the government system. This article begins by framing and contextualizing the two abovementioned foreign-policy concepts. Then, under each pillar, I explore how Turkish foreign policy initially followed a value-rational paradigm and later transitioned to a purpose-rational foreign policy post-2000. I conclude by analyzing the sustainability of this shift and considering its potential long-term consequences for Turkish foreign policy.
