Küreselleşmenin artmasıyla birlikte bir ülkenin sorunu artık kendi sınırları içinde kalmamış, diğer devletleri de etkilemeye başlamıştır. Artan bu küreselleşme ve nüfusla birlikte artan enerji talebi nükleer enerjiye olan eğilimi de artırmıştır ancak bu nükleer enerjiye duyulan istek devletler için tartışılmaz bir güç talebidir diyebiliriz. Nükleer enerjinin enerji güvenliğindeki rolü, bu güce yönelik karşı konulamaz arzu nedeniyle çok büyüktür. Devletler için güvenlik kaygıları devreye girdiğinde, diplomatik müzakereler tek yol olmayabilir. Caydırıcılık eyleminin devreye girdiği yer burasıdır ve nükleer gücün caydırıcılık fikriyle birleşmesi devletler için altın bir kozdur. Üstelik bu koz öyle bir kozdur ki günümüz dünyasının hegemonik güçleri olan ABD, ÇHC ve RF'ye karşı bile caydırıcı bir güçtür. Bununla birlikte bahse konu küresel güçlerin son dönemde bazı anlaşmaları askıya almaları veya anlaşmalardan çekilmeleri küresel güvenlik algılamalarını derinden değiştirmiştir. Bu çalışmada nükleer güç olma ve güvenlik ilişkisi incelenecek, güvenlik ve enerji güvenliği kavramı tartışılacak ve nükleer caydırıcılığın rolü antlaşmalar tarihi ile birlikte açıklanacaktır.

THE ROLE OF NUCLEAR POWER ON ENERGY SECURITY

Öz

With the increase of globalization, the problem of a country is no longer limited within its own borders but has begun to affect other states as well. With this increasing globalization and population, the rising energy demand has also increased the tendency towards nuclear energy, but we can say that the desire for this nuclear power is an indisputable power demand for the states. The role of nuclear power in energy security is huge, because of the irresistible desire for this power. When security concerns come into play for the states, diplomatic negotiations may not be the only way. This is where the deterrence action comes into play, and the combination of nuclear power with the idea of deterrence is a golden trump card for the states. Furthermore, this trump is such a trump card that it is a deterrent force even against US, PRC and RF which are the hegemonic powers in today's world. In this study, the relation between being nuclear power and security to be analyzed, the concept of the security and the energy security to be discussed and the role of the nuclear deterrence to be explained within the history of the treaties.
