The survey aims\u00a0to explain and understand the development, current status and major characteristics of the International Relations (IR) studies in Turkey, its place in the global IR discipline and the views\u00a0of IR scholars on major issues on the global, regional and national agenda. This report aims to\u00a0present the results of the survey comparatively at the global and national scale. The findings were organized in such a way to also test the argument that there is a functional core\/periphery\u00a0division in the world of IR, according to which the Western core countries undertake theoretical knowledge production and other countries provide local expertise and data.<\/p>\n
