Analysis of Transforming Security Through the Water Resources and Affiliated Conflicts Between 2000 and 2019: Case of Iraq, Syria and Turkey
Öz
The aim of this study is to analyze the changing nature of water security and affiliated conflicts within the scope of security conceptualization at individual and state levels between the years 2000-2019. It was set out that water conflicts and water insecurity in Iraq, Syria and Turkey in the 20-year period after 2000 were caused by attacks to water resources and infrastructure at micro and mezzo levels, other than natural disasters such as climate change and reduced water resources. This research focuses on the water conflicts that have arisen in recent years, with some exceptions, not between states but by groups operating at regional levels. It has also been observed in recent years that terrorisminduced attacks have focused on waterways and threatens water security. The study focused on the conflicts occurring in Iraq, Syria and Turkey and the causes of these conflicts within the framework of comparative analysis method.

2000-2019 Yılları Arasında Su Güvenliği ve Çatışmalar Üzerinden Değişen Güvenliğin Analizi: Irak, Suriye ve Türkiye Örnekleri
Öz
Bu çalışmanın amacı; 2000-2019 yılları arasında su güvenliği ve su çatışmalarının birey ve devlet güvenliği kapsamında değişen niteliğinin analizini yapmaktır. Bu çalışmada; iklim değişimi ve azalan su kaynakları dışında; 2000 sonrası 20 yıllık dönemde Irak, Suriye ve Türkiye’deki su kaynaklarına ve altyapısına yapılan saldırıları konu edinmektedir. Bu kapsamda su güvensizliğinin mikro ve mezo seviyede su kaynaklarını ve altyapısını hedef alan saldırılardan kaynaklandığı ortaya konmuştur. Su çatışmaları, son yıllarda, bazı istisnalar hariç, devletler arasında değil bölgesel nitelikte faaliyet gösteren gruplar tarafından yürütülmektedir. Bu çerçevede son yıllarda terörizm kaynaklı saldırıların su yolları üzerine yoğunlaştığı ve su güvenliğini tehdit ettiği gözlemlenmiştir. Çalışma; Irak, Suriye ve Türkiye’de meydana gelen su odaklı çatışmalara ve bu çatışmaların nedenlerine odaklanarak karşılaştırmalı analiz yöntemi çerçevesinde incelenmiştir.
