Geçmişte ve Günümüzde Nixon: Değişen Algılar
Bu makale, başkanlık döneminden 2016 yılına kadar Amerika’da ve dünyada değişen Richard Nixon algısını incelemektedir. Çalışmanın ana temalarında biri, Watergate Skandalı ve Nixon’ın istifasının Amerikan politik sahnesinde yarattığı etkidir. Akademik çalışmalar ve güncel medya kaynaklarını bu analizin dayanağı olarak kullanan bu çalışma, Nixon’ın siyasi mirasının başkanlık dönemi kadar karmaşık olduğunu savunur. Bugün Amerika Birleşik Devletleri’nde Nixon halen Amerikan’ın politik işleyişine leke sürmüş siyasi bir hain olarak gösterilir. Buna rağmen, Çin gibi başka ülkelerde, son derece başarılı bir başkan olarak görülür. Bu çalışma, küresel düzlemde Nixon algısının ve Nixon’ın başkanlık döneminin neden hala bir tartışma konusu olduğunu açıklamayı amaçlamaktadır

Nixon Now and Then: Shifting Perceptions
This article examines how the global and domestic perceptions of Richard Nixon have evolved between his time in office and 2016. One of the main themes of this study is how the Watergate scandal and Nixon’s resignation impacted the American political scene. Using scholarly works as well as contemporary media sources as a basis for analysis, I argue that Nixon’s legacy is as complicated as his presidency. In the United States, Nixon is still viewed as a political villain who placed a stain on the American political process. However, in other countries, such as China, Nixon is viewed as a tremendously successful president. This study seeks to explain why the global perception of Nixon and his presidency is still so contentious
