Summary/Abstract: Worldwide social change, the end of the cold war, the process of economic modernization and globalization have begun to distract people from national identity and the national state. This causes the masses to become interested in the religion without feeling themselves in the void and without insignificance. It is observed that Christianity, Islam, Judaism, Buddhism and Hinduism are increasingly concentrated all over the world. The fact that today is at the peak of the power of the “West” causes non-Western civilizations to turn into “Ecdat (ancestry) Phenomena”. This revitalizes the feelings of Asiaticization in Japan, Hinduization in India and returning to Islam in the Middle East. The psychological and sociological impact of the BOP and EU (European Union) negotiations on the Turkish nation constitutes a suitable environment for the conduct of moderate Islamic and missionary activities, as globalization syndrome, the weakening of nation states, the emergence of borders and the universalization of the world will be essential. BOP, which is outlined by Paul Wolfowitz, Francis Fukuyama, Samuel P. Huntington, Richard Perle, Graham Fuller, Marc Grosman, Paul Henze and other Western strategists, and Turkey’s Central Asia and the Middle East is expected to assume a key role in restructuring. According to the thesis of all these strategists, it is not possible to have an Islamic country in a secular structure and therefore, especially Turkey needs to be restructured. In this study will be analyzed the plans that Western imperialist powers have taken to overcome world power in the 1700s and what Turkey should do in response to these plans.
