Hegemonik İstikrar(sızlık) Kuramı

Uluslararası politik iktisat dahilinde bir bakış açısı sunan hegemonik istikrar kuramı, uluslararası ekonomik yapı ile uluslararası güç dağılımı arasındaki bağlantıyı açıklamaya çalışmaktadır. Siyasi kararların doğurduğu ekonomik sonuçları ele alan kuram, günümüz dünya ekonomisinin ve buna bağlı şekillenen uluslararası ilişkiler dinamiklerinin yorumlanması hususunda faydalıdır. Bu çalışmanın amacı güncel gelişmeler ile uluslararası ilişkilerdeki değişkenler ışığında hegemonik istikrar kuramını ve kurama karşı yöneltilen eleştirileri analiz etmektir. Bu bağlamda ilgili kuramcılara atıfla kurama ait temel kavramlar detaylandırılırken kuramın geçerliliği ve güncel gelişmeleri açıklayabilmedeki etkinliği tartışılacaktır. Kuramın temel taşlarından biri olan hegemon kavramı, Amerikan hegemonyası özelinde örneklendirilecektir. Genel yapı göstermektedir ki Amerika Birleşik Devletleri, hegemonik istikrar kuramının işaret ettiği iyilikseverlik ve manevi doyum kavramlarından uzak olarak maddi çıkarı önemseyen bir güç olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır.

Theory of Hegemonic (in) Stability

Hegemonic stability theory explains the link between international economic structure and power distribution in the international system from a political economy point of view. The theory construes contemporary world economy and related dynamics of international relations by evaluating the economic outcomes of political decisions. This study aims to analyze hegemonic stability theory and its criticism in the scope of current dynamics and variables in international relations. In that regard the study refers to related theoretians and elaborates the main concepts of the theory and their competence to explain current affairs. The notion of hegemon will be exemplified specific to the US hegemony. The overall structure demonstrates the fact that unlike the premise of the theory, US hegemony seeks material gains instead of benelovence or spiritual satisfaciton.
