Özet

ABSTRACT Environmental crises can be used as an opportunity area for radical organizations. The social, economic and political instability caused by environmental degradation allows radical groups to manipulate social weaknesses, dominate resources and gain public support. Radical organizations that take advantage of crises such as state inadequacy, resource scarcity and unemployment can use environmental crises as a strategic tool to advance their own agenda. Organizations that try to turn resource scarcity into a strategic advantage can both gain financial gain by taking control of critical resources and convince the public to join them. Radical organizations that manipulate economic problems and unemployment in their favor can obtain human resources with the financial opportunities they offer. In addition, they can use the activities of large companies that cause environmental destruction and immigration crises to strengthen their own ideological discourse and to gain public support. In this context, the environmental security approach and the critical approach, which enable a comprehensive analysis of how environmental crises are used by radical organizations, will be used together. The focus will be on the opportunities that social, economic and political problems caused by climate change and environmental disasters offer radical organizations. The role and importance of environmental security in ensuring national and international security will be emphasized. It will be shown that environmental security threats are not only ecological problems but can also turn into political and security threats.
