The fourteenth edition of Europe's World is out. We feel it's fair to say that few if any publications in the field of international relations and policy debate have grown as fast or widened their scope so remarkably as Europe's World. Table of contents of Issue 14.

The search is on for 'global governance' solutions to the world's economic and political problems. The trouble is, of course, that there's not much agreement across Europe or around the world on what sort of policy instruments, institutions and rules would open the way to a fairer international system serving the needs of North and South, East and West while avoiding the pitfalls that led to the global crisis.  Read more

Global Political Trends Center (GPoT) was established as a research unit under the auspices of Istanbul Kultur University in 2008.

GPoT Center aims to produce innovative and distinctive policy recommendations by analyzing the contemporary trends in regional and international politics. It aims to interpret the current global patterns by determining the trends in normative structures, risk perceptions, and political system applications around the world. In other words, GPoT Center will aim to provide a platform to examine the reflections of certain global formations in international politics. GPoT Center's output will be a portrayal of the current paradigm on a given subject.
The Center also aims to study Turkey's position and to determine its role within the current global trends.
In accordance with its objectives, GPoT Center has been involved in several projects that monitor the recent developments on the Cyprus problem, the discussion of Turkish-Armenian Relations, Second Track Diplomacy between Israel and Syria and Turkish-Arab Dialogue.
GPoT Center has research and outreach activities at three different levels:

1. Reports: Each year, a trend that concerns the whole globe is analyzed in depth in a geopolitical perspective. The reports look into the causes of the issue, the actors and the different approaches, and make projections into the future. The issue is then taken up in an international conference every year.

2. Ad-hoc Meetings: These are international or regional workshops with the aim to discuss the recent developments in certain international problems. Policy proposals and meeting reports are produced as a result of these meetings.

3. Normative Approaches to Global Trends: These meetings aim to explore the paradigmatic realm of international politics. They bring together well-known academics and intellectuals to discuss the philosophical and theoretical aspects of global political trends.
