Abstract

In the 21st century, there has been complex competition among states for global power. In this regard, states are often observed to confront each other. Globalization in the post-Cold War era led to technological transformation, which brought along radical changes in the competition for global hegemony. In the context of competition for power, the relations between the US and China as two world powers have remarkable characteristics. From this perspective, this study is designed to understand the recent competition between the US and China in comparison with the classical competition during the Cold War. In this vein, the study introduces the concept of Hybrid Cold War and focuses on conventional and non-conventional factors that stand out in the US-China competition. The qualitative research method is adopted in the study and document analysis is used as a data collection technique. In addition, content analysis is benefited as a data analysis technique. In addition to propounding the concept of Hybrid Cold War, the study endeavors to define the ambiguous features of the new era in a conceptual framework. In consequence, this research argues that the US-China competition has entered a new era where conventional and non-conventional methods are used together, increasing the probability of conflict.

Özet

21.yüzyıl küresel güç rekabeti açısından karmaşık ve çatışmalı bir sürece işaret etmektedir. Soğuk savaş sonrası ortaya çıkan küreselleşme ile beraber teknolojik kökenleri öne çıkan bir dönüşüm küresel hegemonya rekabetinde farklılaşmalara ve bununla beraber köklü değişimlere neden olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda öne çıkan iki güç ABD ve Çin’in ilişkileri söz konusu rekabetin işleyişi hakkında dikkat çeken özellikler taşımaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı ABD-Çin rekabetini Soğuk Savaş ya da klasik güç rekabeti dışında bir bağlama yerleştirmeyi denemektir. Bu kapsamda Hibrit Soğuk Savaş kavramını ortaya atan çalışma, ABD-Çin rekabetinde öne çıkan geleneksel ve geleneksel olmayan faktörlere yoğunlaşmaktadır. Çalışmada nitel araştırma yöntemi benimsenmiş ve veri toplama tekniği olarak doküman incelemesi, veri analiz tekniği olarak ise içerik analizi kullanılmıştır. Çalışma, Hibrit Soğuk Savaş kavramını ortaya atarak yeni dönemin gri özelliklerini kavramsal bir çerçevede tanımlamaya çalışmaktadır. Sonuç olarak çalışma ABD-Çin rekabetinin yeni dönemde geleneksel ve gelenek dışı yöntemlerin bir arada kullanıldığı ve çatışma olasılığının arttığı yeni bir döneme girdiğini savunmaktadır.
