    Economic Interdependence and Conflict in Eastern Mediterranean: The Case of the Maritime Conflict Between Turkiye and Greece
    (Accent Publisher, 2023) Yasar, Meysune; Zorba Bayraktar, Hilal
    In the Eastern Mediterranean, there are maritime territorial disputes between dif-ferent states, particularly Turkiye and Greece. This study examines the impact of economic interdependence on the ongoing disputes in the Eastern Mediterranean, focusing on the rela-tionship between these disputes and economic interdependence and hypothesizing that eco-nomic interdependence creates a security dilemma between states. This hypothesis is tested through the dispute between Turkiye and Greece in the Eastern Mediterranean. Turkiye and Greece, which have a long history of disputes in the region, have important themes of compe- tition on regional and global grounds, particu-larly maritime jurisdictions. The study focuses on the relationship between these themes of competition and economic interdependence and reveals the security dilemma that this in-terdependence creates between the two states. Copeland's trade expectations model is used to analyze this relationship. The model focuses on the impact of trade and economic interdepen-dence on states and discusses the conflict-peace possibilities that may arise from this impact. However, this study takes the security dilem-ma out of the military realm and moves it to the economic realm, supporting Copeland's model by arguing that economic interdependence can also create a security dilemma situation. In the study, the periods of crisis in Turkiye and Greece were analyzed together with their defense ex-penditures to reveal their perceptions of suspi-cion and concern. In the end, it was concluded that Turkiye has more security concerns than Greece. When this situation is analyzed through the security of identity, it is seen that ontolog-ical insecurity emerges.
