Основываясь на сопоставлении ряда эмпирических данных с перечнем теоретических индикаторов, разработанным Д. Нолте, автор причисляет Турцию к региональным державам и одновременно отмечает недостаточность объяснительного потенциала этого концепта для анализа современной внешней политики страны. В логике теории Х. Спрюйта об институциональной конкуренции и селекции политических форм выдвинута гипотеза о том, что современная мировая политическая динамика приводит к появлению политических образований нового типа – неоимперий. В статье сформулировано понятие неоимперскости как характеристики внешней политики и проведен сравнительный анализ «имперскости», «постимперскости» и «неоимперскости». Отмечено, что «постимперскость» отражает спонтанное, непроизвольное влияние имперского прошлого на последующее развитие ядра и периферии империи в рамке национального государства, в то время как «неоимперскость» предполагает намеренную адаптацию имперского опыта к современным реалиям с целью более эффективного участия в глобальной конкуренции. Анализ ряда значимых политических решений и действий Турции последнего периода позволяет сделать вывод о том, что внешняя политика страны приобрела неоимперский характер. </p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>The article examines the conceptual foundations of Turkey's contemporary foreign policy. Based on comparing a range of empirical data with a list of theo- retical indicators compiled by D. Nolte the author classifies Turkey as a regional power and at the same time highlights the concept’s insufficient explanatory capacity for analyzing the country’s contemporary foreign policy. The author forms a hypothesis consistent with H. Spruyt's theory of institutional competition between political forms and of their selection. The hypothesis states that the current political dynamics lead to the emergence of novel political entities – neoempires. To test it, the autor defines ‘neoempireness’ as a feature of foreign policy and undertakes a comparative analysis of ‘empireness’, ‘post-empireness’ and ‘neoempireness’. It is noted that the term ‘post-empireness’ reflects spontaneous, unintended influence of the imperial past on the subsequent development of the former empire's core and peripheries as independent national states, whereas ‘neoempireness’ implies deliberate adaptation of the imperial experience to the contemporary realities for the purpose of engaging in the global competition more efficiently. The analysis of a range of significant political decisions and actions recently taken by the Turkish government allows to make the conclusion that its foreign policy has assumed a neoimperial nature.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>региональная держава</kwd><kwd>империя</kwd><kwd>неоимперия</kwd><kwd>неоимпер- скость</kwd><kwd>постимперия</kwd><kwd>постимперскость</kwd><kwd>внешняя политика Турции</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>regional power</kwd><kwd>empire</kwd><kwd>neoempire</kwd><kwd>neoempiresness</kwd><kwd>post-empire</kwd><kwd>post-empiresness</kwd><kwd>Turkey’s foreign policy</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Alekseeva T.A, Ananyev B.I.
