Resumo Este artigo tem como objetivo desafiar a lógica binária que permeia a discussão sobre o impacto da adesão da Turquia na política externa e de segurança comum (PESC) da União Europeia (UE). Defende-se que qualquer análise sobre tal impacto precisa levar em consideração as divisões existentes dentro da Europa e dentro da Turquia em termos de culturas de segurança. Com o intuito de ilustrar a pluralidade de culturas de segurança existentes na UE e na Turquia e fornecer indicações sobre as potenciais contribuições do país para a Europa enquanto ator internacional, são analisadas as respostas da União Europeia como um bloco, de alguns países-membros europeus (França, Reino Unido e Alemanha) e da Turquia ao conflito na Líbia em 2011. Conclui-se que, com ou sem a Turquia, a União Europeia deverá continuar a atuar como uma potência humanitária no cenário mundial e que, portanto, os potenciais impactos de uma eventual adesão turca não devem ser exagerados.

This article aims to analyze Turkish Public Diplomacy (PD) since the Justice and Development Party (AKP, in Turkish) came to power in 2002. In particular, it aims to make sense of the plurality of public diplomacy discourses and practices which attempt to enact a particular identity for Turkey and to tell a particular 'story' to foreign and domestic audiences. Based on a post-structuralist theoretical framework, we present the many institutions responsible for Public Diplomacy in Turkey and analyze the 'stories' told by them, arguing that PD is one of the many practices engaged by the AKP government in its attempt to enact a particularidentity and in its pursuit of legitimacy and influence. The particular identity the AKP has been trying — and keeps failing — to enact is that of a 'benign', benevolent, humanitarian, hospitable and generous emerging power, a model of a Muslim democracy with a growing economy, heir of a (positive) Ottoman legacy. The article also attempts to understand how AKP public diplomacy has been trying to modulate such a 'story' in a context marked by Turkish military interventions abroad and growing authoritarianism at home. ; O artigo tem como objetivo analisar a diplomacia pública da Turquia desde que o partido Justiça e Desenvolvimento (AKP, em turco) chegou ao poder em 2002. Em particular, visamos fazer sentido da pluralidade de discursos e práticas de diplomacia pública que tentam construir uma identidade particular para a Turquia e contar uma 'história' sobre o país para audiências domésticas e internacionais. Utilizando um arcabouço teórico pósestruturalista, apresentamos as muitas instituições responsáveis por diplomacia pública na Turquia e analisamos as 'histórias' contadas por elas, argumentando que a diplomacia pública é uma dentre as muitas práticas empregadas pelo AKP em seus esforços para construir identidade e obter legitimidade e influencia. A identidade particular que o AKP vem tentando — sem sucesso — construir para o país é de uma potência emergente benigna, ...

Resumo O artigo propõe uma discussão sobre as imbricações entre gênero e nação na Turquia, analisando como diferentes projetos de nação mobilizam questões de gênero e produzem discursos acerca de feminilidades e masculinidades que influenciam políticas de gênero no país. Argumentamos que dicotomias rígidas entre projetos ditos 'progressistas' ou 'atrasados' não se sustentam, dado que as premissas de que corpos e comportamentos de mulheres devem ser regulados e que a restrição de liberdades e direitos pode ser justificada em nome da (des)igualdade de gênero e da (ausência ou excesso de) liberdade sexual são amplamente compartilhadas no país.

Abstract This article analyzes the effects of European Union Public Diplomacy (EUPD) discourses, drawing on poststructuralist approaches, which emphasize the productive dimension of discourse. We argue that EUPD helps reproduce a hierarchized identity of the EU, which authorizes particular courses of action while limiting others. Through an analysis of EUPD documents, we identify three descriptors - "EU as a zone of peace, prosperity and democracy"; "United in Diversity"; and "EU as a model" – which, together, form a meaningful narrative about EU's identity, infused with moral superiority, and constitute a dominant discourse with political effects internally and externally.

This Open Access book addresses climate change in Europe and Latin America from a comparative regionalism studies (CRS) perspective. Written by an international team of scholars and experts, chapters critically analyze proposals for mitigating climate change while contributing to the mutual understanding about the issues at stake across regions. The book is divided into three main sections. In the first section, authors discuss EU and Latin American cooperation, negotiations, and perspectives on climate change, exploring their agendas, the interests and key challenges at the global, regional and interregional levels. The second section focuses on the challenges to finance development and a greener economy. The third section explores new green solutions to climate change in the agriculture sector and initiatives such as nature-based solutions to climate change and best practices. Providing policy oriented solutions for combatting regional climate change at a critical juncture, this volume will be of interest to researchers and students of international relations, international law, and environmental politics, as well as public officials and climate change activists.

Abstract This forum, as a part of the special issue on New Directions for Foreign Policy Analysis (FPA), provides a diversity of answers to the question of how affects and emotions, and the search for ontological security, relate to foreign policy. By foregrounding the various ways to conceive the relationship between foreign policy, ontological security, collective identities, states' autobiographical narratives, emotions and affective investments, the contributors to this forum examine and chart fruitful directions in FPA. Resende explores the analytical potentials of combining the theory of Ontological Security, Foreign Policy Analysis and Memory Studies to investigate how states invest in practices of ontological security by creating, remaking and defending their national narratives through historical memory. Solomon recollects how the September 11th attacks and the ensuing War on Terror contributed to his search for approaches which took affects and emotions seriously in IR, and which could help make sense of why some discourses, including foreign policy discourses, resonate with and are accepted by the audience in certain contexts. Finally, Sandrin provides an account of her encounters with the literature on the role of emotions in foreign policy and conveys how these texts helped her make sense of some puzzling aspects of Turkish foreign policy. Jimmy Casas Klausen served as lead editor of this forum. The manuscript passed through the regular double-blind peer review process to insure anonymity.
