While military power and economic sanctions played an important role in
interstate relations during the Cold War, the concept of soft power, which consists
of cultural, historical and universal values that countries have in the post-Cold War
conjuncture, has begun to replace hard powers. In the last quarter of the 20th
century, the armament and ideological warfare of the bipolar system began to lose
its importance. These two concepts have been replaced by elements such as identity
and culture. In this direction, countries have started to use their cultures, languages
and values to have an impact on other countries without using hard power. This
situation has caused powerful states in the world to reconsider their foreign policies.
Turkey has been one of the countries that attaches importance to the concept of soft
power and uses it effectively in foreign policy since the beginning of the 2000s.
Especially with the 2000s, Turkey has made important changes in its foreign policy
to keep up with this new order and has adopted an approach that includes foreign
aid and cultural diplomacy in foreign policy. The effective use of cultural
diplomacy in foreign policy has broken the prejudices of the receiving countries. In
this context, cultural diplomacy has an extremely important role in making foreign
aid more effective.
