ABD hegemonyası ve bölgesel modelleme politikası

1990’lı yılların başında Sovyetler Birliği’nin dağılmasıyla uluslararası sistem tek kutuplu bir niteliğe dönüşmüştür. Tek kutuplu sistemin lider ülkesi ABD’nin yeni dünya düzenini sağlayabilmek için kullandığı birçok araçtan biri de ‘‘bölgesel modelleme’’dir. Belirli bir bölgedeki bir ülkenin siyasal, toplumsal, ekonomik ve kültürel göstergelerde model haline getirilerek; bölgedeki diğer ülkelerin toplumsal ve siyasal düzenlerinin buna göre yeniden düzenlenmeye, buna bağlı olarak hegemonik gücün dünya ölçeğinde yönetim kabiliyetinin yükseltilmeye çalışılması, uluslararası ilişkilerde yeni bir olgudur. Bu çalışmada, hegemon ik bir politika olarak ‘‘bölgesel modelleme’’kavramlaştırılmaya çalışılmıştır.

U.S.hegemony and the poilcy of regional modeling

International system has been transformed into unipolarity after the collapse of Soviet Union at the beginning of 1990s. One of many foreign policy instruments used by the U.S., leader of unipolarity, to attain a new world order is "regional modeling". To make a particular country a model, taking place in a specific region, with some political, economic, social and cultural indicators and to transform social and political order of other countries in that region according to the presented model; so that to increase the ability of the hegemony to govern the world, is a newly emerged development in international relations. In this essay, it is tried to conceptualize "regional modeling" as an hegemonic policy.
