Shift-of-axis in Turkish Foreign Policy: Turkish National Role Conceptions Before and During AKP Rule
Abstract
This article examines Turkish national role conceptions in 1992–2012, identified based on leading Turkish foreign policy-makers’ statements. It contends that the notion that “shift of axis” arguments proliferated in the AKP (Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi) era is misleading. The pattern of Turkish foreign policy roles expressed by the political elite in the period under examination suggests a gradual change toward an ambitious attitude rather than a shift of axis. A plausible explanation would be that the foreign policy roles under any government heavily reflect objective national interests and capabilities, thus a shifting of axis is unlikely to occur without a significant change in these variables.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
