Translated title:
EU-Turkey relations during the AKP era : How the European Parliament evolved its position on Turkey's EU perspective during the period 2002-2018?
Summary:
In this essay, what will be examined is the trajectory of the EU-Turkey relations since the beginning of the AKP period in 2002 until 2018. There will be an analysis on the most crucial issues which affected the relations of the two parties. A special focus will be given on the role of the European Parliament (EP) in this process as it is the official institution which directly represents the EU citizens. Apart from the reports and resolutions of the EP there will be a presentation of the main Europarties’ discourse mainly based on the Plenary Debate of the Members of European Parliament (MEPs). Besides the bibliography, articles and interviews in the online press along with social surveys’ publications - mainly from the eurobarometer- were also examined. Moreover, apart from the EU commision and Council’s publications, there was a thorough research on official EP documents (reports, resolutions,drafts) and the EP plenary debates. Last but not least, special interviews with former MEPs were also a part of our analysis.
