Abstract

[Hedley Bull’s original definition of medievalism as “multiple loyalties and overlapping authorities” (1977) increasingly becomes applicable to current conceptions of state sovereignty in the Middle East that highlights a tendency of dispersion of state authority toward transnational networks. This transnational tendency is quite visible in the field of humanitarianism in which humanitarian nongovernmental organizations (HNGOs) and states started to share agendas, with the latter becoming more willing to act in the name of humanitarianism. This chapter mainly aims to critically engage with humanitarianism’s changing nature in international politics, with a specific reference to its implications on Turkish Foreign Policy toward the Middle East in the 2000s. Analyzing the interplay between Turkish HNGOs and the Turkish government in foreign policy issues toward the Middle East in this period may provide some provisional answers regarding the changing nature of humanitarianism on a global scale, emphasizing states’ centrality, as well as their limitations, in this field.]
