Center for Eurasian Studies (AVİM) was founded on 2 January 2009.[1]
History
The Center for Eurasian Strategic Studies (ASAM) which was established at the end of the 1990s in Ankara ceased its operations in 2008. Institute for Armenian Research (Ermeni Araştırmaları Enstitüsü) (ERAREN), a sub-working group of ASAM, continued its studies for a while. In 2009, ERAREN decided to carry out its activities as Center for Eurasian Studies (AVİM) within the Turkmeneli Cooperation and Culture Foundation[2] in Ankara.[3] After establishment of AVİM, in addition to the main field of study of ERAREN, AVİM has expanded its field of study by making studies on the Eurasian Region.[4]
Research
Studies at AVİM are carried out by 12 research assistants. The Center focuses on the following regions and main themes, with researchers, analysts and visiting research assistants continuing their master's and doctoral degrees/doctorate:
Regions
- Central Asia[5]
- Balkans[6] [7]
- Caucasus[8] [9][10]
- Wider Black Sea Region [11] [12]
- Europe[13]
- Baltic Region[14]
Research Areas
- Turkish-Armenian Relations[15]
- Xenophobia and Racism[16]
- Turkey–European Union relations
- International Security[17][18]
Projects
In addition to its regular activities, the Center for Eurasian Studies (AVİM) engages in academic research projects. One such example is the "Gürcistan’daki Müslüman Topluluklar: Azınlık Hakları, Kimlik, Siyaset" (Muslim Communities in Georgia: Minority Rights, Identity and Politics) project, conducted from September 2015 to March 2016. This research focused on the discrimination faced by four Muslim communities in Georgia and analyzed its effects on minority rights and identity politics. The findings of this project were later compiled into a book, edited by Ayşegül Aydıngün, Ali Asker, and Aslan Yavuz Şir, and published in June 2016. The project was primarily supported by the Office of the Prime Minister for Turks Abroad and Related Communities (YTB) and received additional backing from various Turkish government agencies.[19][20][21][22]
