Abstract

The Neo-Eurasianism which was one of the ideological projects concerning the quests of identity after the collapse of the Soviet Union, influences to some degrees the foreign policy of the Russian Federation ,especially during the Putin’s rule period. “The Eurasian model” is a geopolitical project developed by Russia in the post-Soviet era against the Occident blaming her to pursue imperialistic politics in its nearest abroad and is often mentioned in the current Turkish foreign policy discourses as an alternative strategy to the European Union. The aim of this Project is the reparticipation of Russia to the international system as a powerful actor ( Ortodox empire).Analysis of diverse Neo-eurasian versions could provide us objective basis for the discussions on the conformity in geopolitical and reelpolitik terms of this alternative model to Turkey.
