Özet

Haritalar, günlük hayatın pek çok alanında olduğu gibi siyasette de sıklıkla kullanılan araçlardır. Belirlenen konuların gündeme taşınması, ortaya konulan tezlerin desteklenmesi gibi siyasette çeşitli alanlarda kullanılabilen haritalar, dış politika hedeflerinin gerçekleştirilmesinde de etkin olabilmektedir. İskenderun Sancağı’nın Türkiye’ye katılması farklı açılardan yapılan pek çok çalışmanın konusu olmuştur. Bu çalışmanın amacı Türkiye’deki ulusal gazetelerde sürecin ilk aşamalarında yayınlanan haritaların incelenmesi suretiyle haritaların siyasi bir araç olarak nasıl kullanıldığının analiz edilmesidir. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, haritaların siyasetteki konumuna dair yapılan çalışmalar incelenmiş ve bunlar ışığında İskenderun Sancağı’nın Türkiye’nin dış politikasında ön plana çıktığı Eylül 1936 sonrasında gazetelerde yayınlanan haritalar ve bunlara eşlik eden metinler analiz edilmiştir.
