Özet

Trade is one of the most important elements of economic growth and change. The development of civilisation has been linked to trade and trade routes. The Silk Road, which developed in the 2nd century BC, is the source of commercial, cultural and social communication between East and West. The Fur and Spice Roads, which ran parallel to the Silk Road, served a similar purpose. The Silk Road, which officially ended in 1453 with the discovery of new sea routes, marked the end of an era.

The geographical regions reached by long sea voyages made maritime transport more important. In 2013, the concept of the Silk Road Economic Belt heralded a new beginning. If the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) project is followed by the IMEC project and the Trans-Africa projects in general, we see that the world has entered an era of corridors with more technological and faster means of transport. Countries located near these corridors want to be part of the project. In this study, the aforementioned corridors and IMEC in particular will be highlighted, threats such as the Israel-Gaza conflict will be discussed and the discussion will be clarified within the framework of alternative routes on the axis of Türkiye.
