    Hungarian Foreign Policy towards the Turkic States: A Motivation for a More Authoritarian‑Leaning Political Model or a Pragmatic Will for Economic Gain?
    (Metropolitan University Prague Press, 2025-04) Hasan, Barış; Topuz, Ali Kılıçarslan; 416023
    This study examines the relationship between the recent discussions that Hungary has moved away from fundamental democratic values and turned into an illiberal democracy and the transformation of Hungarian foreign policy by taking Hungary’s relations with the Turkic states as a case. The dynamics of Hungarian foreign policy towards the Turkic states as part of Hungary’s post-2010 strategy of Eastern Opening are taken as a case study and the influences of these dynamics on perception differences about Hungarian democracy are analysed. It is discussed whether Hungary’s developing political and economic relations with the Turkic states since 2010 involve an emulation of the political models of these states and whether this has an impact on the so-called transformation of Hungarian democracy into an illiberal democracy. It attempts to reveal the extent to which foreign policy developments are decisive for Hungarian domestic politics and, in particular, to identify the triggering factors for Hungary’s rapprochement with the Turkic states. It seeks to answer the question of whether Hungary’s motivation to adapt a more authoritarian -leaning political model or pragmatic economic intentions are more hegemonic in the relationship between Hungary and the Turkic states.

    Principles of environmentally sustainable agriculture for building resilient and resource-efficient food systems
    (Tübitak, 2025-10) Çakmakçı, Ramazan; Çakmakçı, Songül; Çakmakçı, Muhammet Fatih; 410449
    As the demand for greater quantities of higher-quality food grows with population expansion, climate change, urbanization, and unsustainable agricultural practices accelerate the loss of arable land, ultimately threatening agricultural sustainability. Population growth necessitates a transition to nutritious, safe, and healthy food production systems that ensure higher yields, less reduced waste, improved social outcomes, and the integration of economic, social, and environmental sustainability principles. Urgent global challenges such as resource depletion, biodiversity loss, and climate change necessitate the protection of ecosystems and the sustainable use of natural resources. Agricultural systems must enhance food production and supply productivity, strengthen system resilience, and improve resource efficiency and sustainability. The sustainable development of agricultural systems based on resilience and productivity is important to ensure food security. The aim of this review is to compile, describe, and propose future strategies for promising food systems—including transformative innovations and alternative farming techniques—to facilitate the transition toward resilient, resource-efficient, and sustainable agriculture, and to mitigate long-term challenges. It also provides recommendations for future research, sustainability, resilience, and emerging food trends aimed at promoting sustainable food systems and green technologies, protecting ecosystems, resources, and biodiversity, and optimizing waste management and natural resource use. This article focuses on future sustainable food production and security, environmental protection, alternative protein sources, and innovative agricultural techniques; it highlights scientific and technological advancements, emerging research directions, and offers a comprehensive perspective on resilient, resource-efficient, and sustainable food production systems.
