Abstract :The topic of global security is both vast and interdisciplinary. Especially in a post-Cold War era in which the changing global and regional geopolitical power and security dynamics have become an increasingly significant area of study, the topic has been gaining attention from more researchers in different areas. It is also observed that students and academics of security and geopolitics have focused only on issues such as terrorism and radicalism that originate from failed state examples, without analyzing relatively stable and well-established states that have gained de facto recognition in international relations. The Turkic states, which are located in the Asia-Europe and Asia-Pacific regions, were selected as a study group both because of their geographical and natural resource importance and their significance in the context of global security. In this study, it was aimed to draw attention to the importance of the Turkic World in terms of global security. This study consists of conducted historical and theoretical research. Analyzing the globalization process backed by theories of international relations, a historical perspective guides led to the present day. The low level of research and work that has been carried out in the field of security has guided and directed this study. One of the key terms that will be used in the study, \\\'Turkic States Organization\\\', has been included in the research to discuss this term in a historical and theoretical context and to discuss matters which have not been debated in the current literature. When reaching the history, it has been observed that even during its establishment period, the Turkic States Organization engages in war and security-related matters. It is for this reason that among these alternative concepts, the term \\\'collective security\\\' has been arbitrated to be binding for the Turkic States Organization.
