Summary/Abstract: The Black Sea Basin has seen a dramatic change both in geographical extent and systemic sense after the Cold War. Completion of the Cold War induced the collapse of the political substructure which is fictionalised by the USSR for shaping the relations between the countries of the basin. Articulation of the basin into the competition that obtains within the scope of the international system has created conflict oriented scenery, when it’s converged with the historical problems, social tension and political challenges that the countries of the basin had already interiorised. This study will probe the conflictual disposition of the Black Sea Basin within the context of the theory of Securitization, which based on the theory of social constructivism.
