Seminar paper from the year 2009 in the subject Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: 1,7, University of Tubingen, course: Hauptseminar: Theorien der Internationale Beziehungen, language: English, abstract: In this paper, it is argued that the value of the Kardak / Imia Rocks to Greece and Turkey is more symbolic than material. The Imia / Kardak Crisis in 1995-1996 was a symbolic breaking point of the continuing disputes in the Aegean. This crisis showed us how sudden and fast the escalation between two countries can appear in the Aegean.
