Özet
Küresel rekabet ortamında devletler siyasi, ekonomik ve askeri hegemonyalarını sürdürmek için çabalarken, “yumuşak güç” olarak tanımlanan kamu diplomasisinin ortaya çıkmasıyla etki ve ikna odaklı politikalara yönelmeye başlamışlardır. Kamu diplomasisinin bir aracı olarak ele alınan ulus markalama devletler tarafından son 20 yıldır deneyimlenmeye başlanan bir pratik haline gelmiştir. Ulusların turizm, kültürel miras, ihraç malları, iç ve dış politika, insanlar ve yatırım/göç alanlarındaki repütasyonlarını değerlendiren ulus marka endekslerinde ilk sıralarda yer alan ülkelerin olumlu bir imaja sahip olduğu görülmüştür. Türkiye’nin bu endekslerde ilk 20 sıralamasına girmeyi başaramadığı görülmektedir. Çalışmada kamu diplomasisi ve ulus markalama kavramları tartışılmış, Türkiye’nin ulus markalama çabaları irdelenmiş, ihraç ürünlerini markalama programı olan Turqualityörnek olay olarak incelenmiş, araştırma Turquality yetkilisiyle gerçekleştirilen odaklı mülakat ile desteklenmiştir. Sonuç olarak Türkiye’nin ulus markalama adına belirli stratejik çalışmalar gerçekleştirdiği saptanmıştır. Bu çalışmaların yetkinliğini artırma amacına yönelik bir ulus markalama modeli önerilmiştir.
