An asset or liability: Turkey's potential in availing EU global actorness
Doğan, Erhan; Genç, Hatice Deniz
By focusing on the question of actorness first, this chapter builds on the textual analysis of the Common Foreign and Security Policy (CFSP) sections of European Commission Progress Reports on Turkey and it examines Turkish perspectives on European Union (EU) actorness by presenting a thorough discussion on Turkey's alignment with EU's CFSP. As the analysis reveals, contradictory to the asymmetrical relationship between the EU and Turkey, Turkey's alignment with the Union's foreign policy remained only selective, meaning that Turkey was deliberately not aligning with all common positions, sanctions and statements. In this respect, the analysis sketches a link between Turkey's alignment to CFSP and EU actorness, and it argues the reasons for low level of alignment in Turkey. Lastly, it is highlighted in this chapter that Turkey could have played a critical role in strengthening and projecting a common foreign policy through which the EU would exercise regional and global actorness.

How to accelerate electrification? The leverage of policies
Aalto, Pami; Kotilainen, Kirsi; Sovacool, Benjamin; Bilgin, Mert; Talus, Kim
This chapter discusses the types of policy instruments that can be deployed to accelerate electrification as a master solution to climate neutrality. We first situate the target outcome of climate neutrality in the context of further interests within society that also affect the conduct of policy actors. Simultaneously we acknowledge the presence of structural features such as historically developed path-dependencies and lock-ins within the energy system and society. We then differentiate between varieties of policy instruments: command-and-control instruments, economic instruments, management and planning instruments, as well as education and information instruments. Using a structuration approach to energy policy formation, we finally discuss how policy-makers assess the structures discernible in their policy environments and on that basis eventually choose between rival policy options. We expect policy-makers to identify and choose which policy instruments to promote on the basis of their analysis of the situation as they perceive it.

The dimensions and politics of discrimination against syrian refugees in Turkey
Duygulu Elcim, Şirin
This chapter discusses the changes and continuities in the policies developed for refugees in Turkey with a focus on the ways through which these policies perpetuate various faces of discrimination. Turkey has around four million refugees, 3.5 million of which came from Syria in the last decade. Providing a safe, hospitable living environment for such a large number of people where individuals can enjoy their human rights and also take part in social, economic, and political life of the country that they relocated to is a very difficult task for any government to realize. Turkey has faced this challenge in a time of economic downturn and rising internal and international security concerns. Thus, understanding the root causes and implications of the discrimination that overshadows the daily experiences of refugees in Turkey could only be possible if not just the legal and political but also economic and psychological dimensions surrounding the events are considered. For this reason, this chapter will adopt both a historical and a multidimensional approach. After discussing legal, discursive, institutional, and socioeconomic reasons behind discrimination, the chapter will focus on the need for and the difficulty of developing a differentiated approach in addressing the needs of different groups within the refugee populations.
