Turkish Neo-Ottomanism as a Postmodern Islamic Model
Jure Vujić
; Ministarstvo vanjskih poslova i europskih integracija Republike Hrvatske
Sažetak
The ''turnabout" in the Turkish foreign policy, with the new initiatives of Ahmet Davutoglu, can be interpreted as continuity or as rehabilitation of the neo-Ottoman geopolitical and strategic approach of Turkey, with its roots in the imperial Ottoman heritage, but it is also being affirmed through renewed
Eurasian geopolitical polycentric orientation on the macroregional level. In this context, resuming the connection to the Turkish-speaking world of Central Asia, with Syria, Iran and Russia, and proactive geopolitical position in the Balkans, all indicate to gradual abandonment of the historically and geopolitically spent Kemalist model and to entering a revitalised Turkish postmodern and Islamic model as a sort of Turkish ,,Conservative Revolution".
