One of the fundamental categories of general sociology concerns power. Regardless of differences in interpretation, power can be defined as the dependence between subordinator and subordinated. This relation is unidirectional. When discussing influence, this property is significant, as otherwise it could be reciprocal, or an influence could be exerted by many other entities that are not bound by the relationship of subordination. The nature of international relations is too specific to allow a simple transfer of power-related phenomena from the realm of domestic relations. One can indicate the presence of delegated power, resulting from the mutual assignment of subordination rights to international decision- making bodies. The processes of international power are divided into procedures of hard power, soft power and smart power, the latter signifying the manifestation of effective power, making use of the mechanisms of the former two. It is also important to take into account the specificity of the legitimization of international power and manifestations of accountability. Also not without significance is the capacity for the implementation of international power, equipped with the relevant enforcement instruments. ; One of the fundamental categories of general sociology concerns power.

The aim of the paper is the analysis of the relationship between the perception of the success factors in international collaborative relationships and firm's international experience. The results of an empirical study on the sample of 278 Polish exporters and importers cooperating with partners from China and Germany are presented and both the differences in success factor perception depending on foreign partners' home country, and the correlation of the perception of the success factors with the international experience of the firms are discussed. The study revealed that the firms working with partners in China have somewhat more international experience. The importance of the majority of the success factors in relationships with German partners did not differ significantly from those in collaboration with Chinese firms. However, some consequential differences were observed. Internationalization experience is not strongly related with the perception of international cooperation success factors.

Terörizm, on yıllardır çeşitli tanımları yapılmasına rağmen devlet politikaları ve çıkar çevrelerince aynı durumun farklı zamanlarda farklı şekillerde tasvir edilmesinden dolayı net kabul görmüş bir tanıma sahip olamamıştır. Bütün devletler için tarih boyunca tehdit oluşturmuş bir kavram iken, tehdidin büyüklüğü ve önemi dünya coğrafyasınca ancak 11 Eylül saldırıları sonrasında anlaşılmıştır. Türkiye, teröre karşı mücadele eden ve bu konuda en çok acı çeken ülkelerin başında gelmektedir. Dünyada çok az ülke Türkiye kadar terör sorunu ile karşı karşıya kalmıştır. Göz ardı edilmemelidir ki, Türkiye'de terörizme karşı kazanılacak zafer, tüm dünyaya örnek olacak ve barış için en büyük bir adım teşkil edecektir. Bu çalışma, genelde dünya coğrafyasının büyük bir kısmının farklı sebep ve şekillerde de olsa maruz kaldığı terör ve terörizm kavramlarının tanımlanması ve terörizmin nedenleri, amaçları, özellikleri, çeşitleri ve terörün uluslararasılaşan boyutunu ele almış; özelde ise Türkiye'nin de yıllardır maruz kaldığı PKK Terör Örgütü'nün örgüt yapısı, ideolojisi, amaç-stratejisi, geçirdiği evreler incelenmiştir. Uluslararası boyut başlığı altında ise, Birleşmiş Milletler (BM), Avrupa Birliği (AB), Avrupa Konseyi Parlamenterler Meclisi (AKPM) Avrupa İnsan Hakları Mahkemesi (AİHM) gibi uluslararası örgütlerin ve bazı ülkelerin yıllar itibariyle sergiledikleri PKK politikaları ve tutumları açıklanmaya çalışılmıştır. ; Although terrorism is defined for dozen of years in various ways it has not a clear definition acceptable due to it is described in different ways in different times by state policies and interest groups. While it is a concept posing a challenge for states it has been well undersood by the world after 11 September events. Turkey is a state who struggled with terrorism and felt pain in the world. There is no country in the world who suffered from terrorism as much as Turkey. It must be remembered that victory against terrorism will be a sample for all countries in the world and it will be the greatest step in the way of peace. This study deals with the definition of terrorism which major part of the world is subjected to with different reasons and reasons, aims, properties, types and the international dimension of the terror in particular PKK terror group to which Turkey is subjected to for years, with its structure, ideology, strategical aim and the steps of the event.

International relations are a form of human action so they should become the object of praxiology as a science oriented to efficiency. The traditional approach however must be changed. As it suggested in this article, human action is divided into three sections – cooperation, struggling and rivalry, which correspond to three types of theories. It should be added that cooperation is a positive-sum game, struggling – a negative-sum game and rivalry – a zero-sum game. The theory of international relations should be focused on the link between principles of cooperation and principles of struggling. This means that theory of foreign policy should be a theory of control in the zero-sum game system. ; International relations are a form of human action so they should become the object of praxiology as a science oriented to efficiency.

Stosunki międzynarodowe są postacią działania ludzi, dlatego powinny stać się obiektem zainteresowania prakseologii jako nauki nastawionej na sprawność działania. Dotychczasowe rozumienie sprawności musi być jednak odmienne od tradycyjnego. Zgodnie z propozycją zawartą w artykule, ludzkie działanie dzieli się na trzy działy – współpracę, walkę oraz rywalizację , którym odpowiadają trzy rodzaje teorii. Charakterystyczne jest to, że współpraca jest grą o sumie dodatniej, walka – grą o sumie ujemnej, natomiast rywalizacja – grą o sumie zerowej. Teoria stosunków międzynarodowych powinna skupiać się na teorii rywalizacji, rozpostartej pomiędzy współpracą a walką. Oznacza to, że teoria stosunków międzynarodowych powinna opierać się na zasadach współpracy i zasadach walki, a teoria polityki międzynarodowej państwa powinna być teorią sterowania w systemie gry o sumie zerowej. ; International relations are a form of human action so they should become the object of praxiology as a science oriented to efficiency.

In parallel with the worldwide studies focusing on the International Relations (IR) discipline, there have been works looking into the transformation of the IR discipline in Turkey and its contribution to the global knowledge production. In order to provide sound data for these studies, International Relations Council of Turkey (IRCT) conducted two surveys among the Turkish IR academics in 2007 and 2009, and have been cooperating with the Institute for the Theory and Practice of International Relations at the College of William and Mary since then on the Teaching, Research and International Policy (TRIP) project. The TRIP surveys that aim to understand the epistemological and ontological limits, autonomous character of the IR discipline as well as the theoretical, metodological and pedagocial approaches in which IR scholars used in their teaching and research activities, also help to comprehend the place of the Turkish IR scholars within the global IR discipline. This paper presents Turkey-related findings of the lastest survey, which was simultaneously conducted in 35 different countries between February and July 2018.

The development of cyberspace in the world and its impact on human life is more and more visible. Proper protection of all processes that can negatively affect people's lives is therefore an indispensable element that should accompany this development. Safe cyberspace is also closely related to the internal and external security of each country. The preparation of appropriate, international security guarantees in cyberspace is not only a challenge for individual countries, but above all for global institutions that provide peace. In Europe, the European Union and the Council of Europe should be the leaders in this respect. Lack of legal regulations regarding safe cyberspace is the possibility of exposing people to taking control over their privacy, data theft or other crimes. The implementation of European standards should therefore apply in every country. Governments should additionally emphasize social education and disseminate knowledge about threats in cyberspace. Coordinating these two activities gives hope that the expanding cyberspace in the future will not destroy people's lives. ; Cyberprzestrzeń z roku na rok jest coraz większa, a jej wpływ na życie ludzkie coraz bardziej widoczny. Właściwa ochrona wszystkich procesów, które mogą negatywnie wpływać na życie ludzi, jest zatem niezbędnym elementem, który powinien towarzyszyć szybkiemu rozwojowi informacyjno-komunikacyjnemu. Bezpieczna cyberprzestrzeń jest również ściśle związana z wewnętrznym i zewnętrznym bezpieczeństwem każdego kraju. Przygotowanie odpowiednich międzynarodowych gwarancji bezpieczeństwa w cyberprzestrzeni jest nie tylko wyzwaniem dla poszczególnych krajów, ale przede wszystkim dla globalnych instytucji zapewniających pokój. Unia Europejska i Rada Europy powinny być liderami w tym zakresie. Brak przepisów prawnych dotyczących bezpiecznej cyberprzestrzeni to możliwość narażenia ludzi na przejęcie kontroli nad ich prywatnością, kradzieżą danych lub innymi przestępstwami. Dlatego wdrażanie norm europejskich powinno mieć zastosowanie w każdym kraju. Rządy powinny dodatkowo podkreślać edukację społeczną i rozpowszechniać wiedzę o zagrożeniach w cyberprzestrzeni. Koordynacja tych dwóch działań daje nadzieję, że rozwijająca się cyberprzestrzeń w przyszłości nie zniszczy życia ludzi.

The object of research is the trust problem in the relations of the East and the West. The author in detail analyzes the phenomenon of trust, its principles and distinctive signs. Special attention is paid to conditions of formation of trust as on micro (between individuals) and at the macro level (between societies). The author connects the trust problem with a categorization "friend-or-foe", considered in the civilization aspect of the subject. Thus, the author in the research used the case study method and content analysis. The novelty of research consists in approach to understanding intensity between civilizations of the East and the West through a problem of the possibility of confidential relations between them. The author comes to a conclusion that in the modern international relations there is a paradoxical situation: the trust measure between the countries decreases, in volume time as it is possible to cope with new calls and threats only through consolidation of the world community on the basis of mutual trust.

1990 soğuk savaş sonrası ortaya çıkan küreselleşme ve yeni dünya düzeni kavramları, dünyada mevcut dengesizliği daha da artırmıştır. Bu durum uygun ortamı bekleyen terörizmin artarak uluslar arası boyut kazanmasına neden olmuştur.Bu araştırmanın amacı; soğuk savaş sonrası dönemle birlikte başlayan ve 11 Eylül olayları sonrası daha da netleşen yeni tehdit ve risklerden, uluslar arası terörizmi, gelişim sürecini ve özelliklerini ortaya koyarak, dünyaya ve Türkiye'ye etkileri açısından incelemektirTerörizmin bütün dünya devletleri tarafından, ya da en azından etkili olduğu kabul edilebilecek çoğunluğu tarafından onaylanmış bir tanımı yapılamamış, çözüm konusunda ortak bir karara henüz ulaşılmamıştır. Bu sorunun çözümlenebilmesi için ülkelerin terörizme bakış açılarında sağlanacak fikir birliği büyük önem taşımaktadır.Çalışma, uluslar arası terörizm ile ilgili bilgileri, uluslar arası terörün Türkiye'ye yansımalarını, terörün olumsuz etkilerini asgariye indirmek için uluslar arası alanda yapılması gereken işbirliği imkânlarını kapsamaktadır.Güncel bir konu olan uluslar arası terörizmle ilgili olarak, birçok yerli ve yabancı yayın taranarak ilgili bilgiler incelenmiş, objektif kıstaslar gözetilerek yorumlanmış ve değerlendirilmiştir.Çalışma sonucunda; uluslar arası ilişkilerin giderek arttığı günümüzde, gelecekteki en önemli güvenlik sorununun terörizm olacağı, terörizmle etkin bir mücadele için ise uluslar arası düzeyde işbirliğinin gerekli olduğu değerlendirilmiştir. ; Globalisation and new world order concepts, which come out after the cold war in 1990, have further increased the current imbalance in the world. This case led terrorism to gain international dimension that looks for a suitable environment.The purpose of this research is to examine the effects of new threat and risks to Turkey and the world that starts with the cold war period, and becomes clear after 11 September besides international terrorism and development process. Approved definition of terrorism could not be made by all world states or the majority which can be accepted as it is efficient and a joint decision is not made yet for the solution.In order to find a solution on this issue, it is of great importance to reach a consensus concerning the point of views of the countries on terrorism.The study covers the co-operation possibilities on international arena so as to reduce the negative effects of terrorism, reflections of international terror to Turkey and the relevant information about international terrorism.Many domestic and foreign publications were examined and screened regarding the international terrorism which is a common issue. In addition, objective criteria were interpreted and evaluated in this regard.As result of this study, it was evaluated that terrorism will be the most important security issue in today?s world where international relations increase gradually and an international co-operation is necessary for the effective struggle with terrorism .

Günümüzün uluslararası aktörlerine düşen görev, karşılaştıkları uyuşmazlıkları her bakımdan daha insani olan barışçı yollar ile çözme yoluna gitmektir. Bu çözüm yolları içerisinde en dikkat çekici ve sonuca yatkın olan ise arabuluculuk yöntemidir. İnsanlık tarihi ile paralel bir şekilde gelişme gösteren arabuluculuk, neredeyse tüm uygarlıklarda tercih edilen bir yöntem olmuştur. Arabuluculuk uyuşmazlık halindeki iki devletin, üçüncü bir uluslararası hukuk kişisi tarafından bir araya getirilmesi ve barış için çözüm üretilmesi sürecidir. Bu sürecin başarılı bir şekilde sonuçlanmasında arabulucunun tarafsızlığı, statüsü ve taraflar üzerindeki baskı gücü önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Arabulucu konumundaki üçüncü kişi, bir devlet olabileceği gibi, uluslararası bir örgüt veya gerçek kişi de olabilmektedir. Arabuluculuğun en önemli özelliklerinden biri, arabulucunun tarafları bağlayıcı nitelikte bir karar verme yetkisinin bulunmamasıdır. Bu bakımdan arabulucu, sadece uyuşmazlık halindeki tarafları bir araya getirmekte ve çözüm önerileri sunmaktadır. Arabuluculuk yönteminin zamandan tasarruf sağlaması, arabuluculuk yapan kişilerin alanında uzman olması, yargı organlarının yükünü azaltması ve gizliliğin daha kolay korunabilmesi gibi nedenler ile diğer barışçı çözüm yollarına göre daha çok tercih edildiği görülmektedir. ; The duty of today's international actors is, to settlement the international disputes they faced in peaceful ways which are more humane than all respects. Within these peacfeul ways, most remarkable and liable to result is mediation. As developing parallel with the history of humanity, mediation has been a preffered method in almost all civilizations. Mediation is a process of bringing together and finding solutions to the conflict parties by a third party person. To have a successful conclusion in this process, the impartiality, the status and the leverage of the mediator plays an important role. The third party person as a mediator, may be a state and may also be an international organization or natural person. One of the most important characteristics of mediation is the mediator can not give a decision that is binding on parties. In this regard, mediator only brings the conflict parties together and offers solutions. Mediation way is more preferable than other peaceful solutions in such reasons as the time savings of mediation, being expert persons as a mediator, reducing the burden of the judicial organs and being easier to protect confidentiality.
