| Popis: |
This chapter explores the affective atmosphere of pro-Western alignment between Ankara and Tehran under the global Cold War rules. The first part examines the local impact of international polarization between the US-led Western camp and the Eastern bloc dominated by the Soviet Union. Sharing similar concerns regarding the Soviet-communist threat, Turkish and Iranian regimes have moved toward the Anglo-American axis. However, the regional rapprochement in the northern tier could not alleviate structural socio-economic predicaments faced by both countries. The dual failures in addressing domestic sources of disorder have created disturbing relational consequences. The Baghdad Pact and the CENTO have not helped to overcome the cold relational sentiments surrounding the affective atmosphere of Turkey-Iran neighborhood. |
