Article 2000’li Yıllarda Yapısal Dönüşüm ve Emeğin Durumu(DİSK Birleşik Metal-İş, 2019) Orhangazi, Özgür; Orhangazi, ÖzgürTürkiye ekonomisi 2000’li yıllarda büyük bir yapısal dönüşüm yaşamış ve tarımın milli gelir ve istihdam içerisindeki payı hızlı bir biçimde düşmüştür. Bu süreçte proleterleşme artmış ve Türkiye giderek daha fazla bir ‘ücretliler toplumu’ haline gelmiştir. Ne var ki ekonominin ve özellikle sanayi sektörünün istihdam yaratma kapasitesi görece düşük kalmıştır. Bunun sonucu yüksek işsizlik oranları ve düşük işgücüne katılma oranları olarak karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Dış sermaye girişlerine bağımlı, borç artışına dayanan, inşaat odaklı bir büyüme modelinin hakim olduğu ve uygun istihdam ve sanayi politikalarının geliştiril(e)mediği bu dönemde istihdam ağırlıklı olarak üretkenliği düşük hizmetler sektöründe yoğunlaşmıştır. İşgücü piyasalarının temel özellikleri olarak işsizlik oranlarının yüksek olması, yedek işgücü ordusunun genişliği ile sendikalaşma ve toplu iş sözleşmesi oranlarının oldukça düşük olması öne çıkmıştır. Aynı zamanda işgücü piyasaları giderek güvencesizleştirilerek taşeronlaşma ve esnek istihdam biçimleri yaygınlaştırılmaya çalışmıştır. Bu dönemde yine de reel ücretlerde belirli bir yükselme gözlemlense de bu, verimlik artışının ve dolayısıyla GSYH artışının gerisinde kalmıştır.Article 2015 PARİS İKLİM DEĞİŞİKLİĞİ KONFERANSI ÇERÇEVESİNDE NÜKLEER ENERJİ: BİR ÇÖZÜM MÜ, YOKSA BİR SORUN MU?(Rasim Özgür Dönmez, 2017) Keçeci, F. Orçunİklim değişikliği sadece gelişmekte olan ülkeler için değil aynı zamanda gelişmiş sanayi toplumları için de küresel bir sorundur. Karbondioksit (CO2) yayarak daha fazla fosil yakıt tüketmek iklim değişikliğine yol açar ve bu sorun insan faaliyetlerinden kaynaklanır. İklim değişikliğinin bir sonucu olarak küresel ısınma tüm insanlığı ve ekolojik dengeyi tehdit etmektedir. Devletler arasındaki farklılık ve sorunlara rağmen; dünya ülkeleri son zamanlarda iklim değişikliğiyle uluslararası arenada mücadele etmektedir. Özellikle iklim değişikliğine yönelik riskleri azaltmak amacıyla Kasım 2015’te gerçekleştirilen Paris İklim Değişikliği Konferansı’ndaki en önemli meselelerden birisi nükleer enerjidir. Bu bağlamda, bu makale nükleer enerjinin iklim değişikliğine katkı sağlayıp sağlamayacağını incelemektedir.Article Citation - WoS: 1Citation - Scopus: 2A 2020 Vision for the Black Sea Region: the Commission on the Black Sea Proposes(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2010) Aydın, Mustafa; Aydın, Mustafa; Triantaphyllou, Dimitrios; Trıantafyllou, DımıtrıosThe Black Sea region is coming into its own although it is at times a contested and dangerous neighbourhood. Despite heightened interest in the region its real priorities and needs are still being largely ignored by insiders and outsiders alike. What is needed are regional solutions for regional problems. The authors present the key findings and recommendations of the Commission on the Black Sea a civil society initiative comprising a number of current and former policy-makers scholars and practitioners both from within the region and from outside with the purpose of contributing to a joint vision and a common strategy for the Black Sea region by developing new knowledge in areas of key concern.Article Citation - WoS: 3Citation - Scopus: 5Abortion Services at Hospitals in Istanbul(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2017) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Louıse Şimşek, MaryObjective: Despite the existence of a liberal law on abortion in Turkey there is growing evidence that actually securing an abortion in Istanbul may prove difficult. This study aimed to determine whether or not state hospitals and private hospitals that accept state health insurance in Istanbul are providing abortion services and for what indications. Method: Between October and December 2015 a mystery patient telephone survey of 154 hospitals 43 public and 111 private in Istanbul was conducted. Results: 14% of the state hospitals in Istanbul perform abortions without restriction as to reason provided in the current law while 60% provide the service if there is a medical necessity. A quarter of state hospitals in Istanbul do not provide abortion services at all. 48.6% of private hospitals that accept the state health insurance also provide for abortion without restriction while 10% do not provide abortion services under any circumstances. Key conclusions: State and private hospitals in Istanbul are not providing abortion services to the full extent allowed under the law. The low numbers of state hospitals offering abortions without restriction indicates a de facto privatization of the service. This same trend is also visible in many private hospitals partnering with the state that do not provide abortion care. While many women may choose a private provider the lack of provision of abortion care at state hospitals and those private hospitals working with the state leaves women little option but to purchase these services from private providers at some times subtantial costs.Article Citation - WoS: 31Citation - Scopus: 41Acculturation Attitudes and Social Adjustment in British South Asian Children: a Longitudinal Study(Sage Publications Inc, 2013) Brown, Rupert; Baysu, Gülseli; Baysu, Gülseli; Cameron, Lindsey; Nigbur, Dennis; Rutland, Adam; Watters, Charles; Hossain, Rosa; LeTouze, Dominique; Landau, AnickA 1-year longitudinal study with three testing points was conducted with 215 British Asian children aged 5 to 11 years to test hypotheses from Berry's acculturation framework. Using age-appropriate measures of acculturation attitudes and psychosocial outcomes it was found that (a) children generally favored an integrationist attitude and this was more pronounced among older (8-10 years) than in younger (5-7 years) children and (b) temporal changes in social self-esteem and peer acceptance were associated with different acculturation attitudes held initially as shown by latent growth curve analyses. However a supplementary time-lagged regression analysis revealed that children's earlier integrationist attitudes may be associated with more emotional symptoms (based on teachers' ratings) 6 months later. The implications of these different outcomes of children's acculturation attitudes are discussed.Article Citation - WoS: 25Citation - Scopus: 29Activating Reflective Thinking With Decision Justification and Debiasing Training(Society for Judgment and Decision making, 2020) İsler, Ozan; Yılmaz, Onurcan; Yılmaz, Onurcan; Doğruyol, Burak; Doğruyol, BurakManipulations for activating reflective thinking, although regularly used in the literature, have not previously been systematically compared. There are growing concerns about the effectiveness of these methods as well as increasing demand for them. Here, we study five promising reflection manipulations using an objective performance measure — the Cognitive Reflection Test 2 (CRT-2). In our large-scale preregistered online experiment (N = 1,748), we compared a passive and an active control condition with time delay, memory recall, decision justification, debiasing training, and combination of debiasing training and decision justification. We found no evidence that online versions of the two regularly used reflection conditions — time delay and memory recall — improve cognitive performance. Instead, our study isolated two less familiar methods that can effectively and rapidly activate reflective thinking: (1) a brief debiasing training, designed to avoid common cognitive biases and increase reflection, and (2) simply asking participants to justify their decisions.Article Citation - WoS: 0Article Citation - WoS: 16Citation - Scopus: 21After the Crimean Crisis: Towards a Greater Russian Maritime Power in the Black Sea(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2014) Delanoe, IgorThe modernization of the Black Sea Fleet currently underway is believed to be one of the most ambitious parts of the Russian State Arms Procurement programme 2011-2020. Up to 18 units are being built and are expected to be commissioned in the Russian Black Sea Fleet by 2020 while new infrastructures are being developed. However Russia's annexation of Crimea in March 2014 has overthrown the Black Sea maritime context. It is likely to give substantial impetus to Russian naval plans in the Black Sea and by extension to sustain Moscow's resumption of naval activity in the Mediterranean. Yet whereas Russia's maritime power has been dramatically enhanced due to the takeover of Crimea Moscow's naval power in the Black Sea and in the Mediterranean remains challenged by a set of qualitative factors. Beyond the Ukrainian crisis has demonstrated the inability of the European Union to manage its Black Sea environment as well as it has highlighted the United States waning influence and interests in the region.Article Citation - Scopus: 3The Akp Story: Turkey's Bumpy Reform Path Towards the European Union(2011) McDonald, Deniz BingölThe Justice and Development Party (AKP) government between 2002 and 2007 managed to accomplish unprecedented economic reforms maintaining 8% growth and passed legislation to change Turkey into a more democratic country in line with the Copenhagen political conditions. After being rewarded with the start of accession negotiations in 2005 and an electoral landslide in 2007 AKP's second term in office is in stark contrast with its earlier days of glory. AKP disengaged itself from the IMF agreement and took EU reforms off the top of its agenda bringing half a decade of political and economic reforms to a halt. The paper argues that AKP utilized the credibility of IMF and EU support to defeat its domestic rivals but once the external incentives lessened AKP turned inwards to consolidate its power and cared for little else. The first part of the paper explores how AKP managed to construct such a broad reform consensus and assesses the role of the external influence. The second part explores why and how this reform consensus fell apart.Article Citation - WoS: 41Citation - Scopus: 47Alevis and Alevism in the Changing Context of Turkish Politics: the Justice and Development Party's Alevi Opening(Routledge Journals Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2011) Soner, Bayram Ali; Toktaş, ŞuleThe Justice and Development Party (JDP Adalet ve Kalkinma Partisi) has launched a rapprochement policy toward the Alevis. The JDP's Alevi Opening has presented a unique case in Turkey's latest identity politics not only because Alevi claims for the first time came to be involved in political processes for official recognition and accommodation but also because the process was handled by a political party which is regarded to have retained Islamist roots in Sunni interpretation. This article explores the JDP's Alevi Opening process and tries to explain the motivations behind the party's decision to incorporate the Alevi question in its political agenda. What is more the debate that the opening has caused is also under scrutiny with the positions and arguments held by the actors and the agencies involved in the process e. g. the Alevis (the secularist and the conservative wings) the General Directorate of Religious Affairs the National Security Council the JDP leadership and the Islamist intellectuals.Article Algı Mı, Söylem Mi? Kopenhag Okulu ve Yeni-klasik Gerçekçilikte Güvenlik Tehditleri(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği İktisadi İşletmesi, 2011) Akgül Açıkmeşe, Sinem; Akgül Açıkmeşe, SinemBu makale, güvenlik tehditlerinin ortaya çıkışı bakımından yeni-klasik gerçekçilikteki algısal yaklaşımla, Kopenhag Okulunun söylemle inşaya dayalı yöntemini karşılaştırmaktadır. Makalenin hareket noktası, güvenlik tehditlerinin içeriği ve güvenlik aktörleri bakımından farklı perspektifl ere sahip bu iki yaklaşımın güvenliğin çalışılmasında metodolojik benzerlikler içermesi nedeniyle karşılaştırılabilir olduğu varsayımıdır. Makale, tehditlerin ortaya çıkışı bakımından yeni-klasik gerçekçiliğin algılara dayalı öznel yaklaşımının Kopenhag Okulu tarafından kısmen benimsendiğini vurgulayarak, Okulun söyleme dayalı özneler-arası alternatif bir model geliştirdiğini aktarmaktadır. Bu çerçevede, makale öncelikle Güvenlik Çalışmaları yazınında güvenlik tehdidinin içeriği konusundaki tartışmalara yer vermektedir. Ardından, yeni-klasik gerçekçiliği çatısında barındıran Gerçekçi Güvenlik Çalışmalarının tehdidin içeriği ve ortaya çıkışına dair varsayımlarını karşılaştırmalı olarak değerlendirmekte ve yeni-klasik gerçekçiliğin algısal perspektifi ni analiz etmektedir. Son olarak, Kopenhag Okulunun tehditlerle ilgili analizinin çerçevesini oluşturan güvenlikleştirme yaklaşımının tehditlerin kapsamı ve dayanağına dair tespitlerini Okulun kullandığı söz edimi, siyaset teorisi ve söylem analizi perspektifl erinden yeni-klasik gerçekçilikle karşılaştırmalı olarak incelemektedir.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 18All the Dark Triad and Some of the Big Five Traits Are Visible in the Face(Pergamon-Elsevıer Scıence Ltd, 2021) Alper, Sinan; Yılmaz, Onurcan; Bayrak, Fatih; Yılmaz, OnurcanSome of the recent studies suggested that people can make accurate inferences about the level of the Big Five and the Dark Triad personality traits in strangers by only looking at their faces. However, later findings provided only partial support and the evidence is mixed regarding which traits can be accurately inferred from faces. In the current research, to provide further evidence on whether the Big Five and the Dark Triad traits are visible in the face, we report three studies, two of which were preregistered, conducted on both WEIRD (the US American) and non-WEIRD (Turkish) samples (N = 880). The participants in both the US American and Turkish samples were successful in predicting all Dark Triad personality traits by looking at a stranger's face. However, there were mixed results regarding the Big Five traits. An aggregate analysis of the combined dataset demonstrated that extraversion (only female), agreeableness, and conscientiousness were accurately inferred by the participants in addition to the Dark Triad traits. Overall, the results suggest that inferring personality from faces without any concrete source of information might be an evolutionarily adaptive trait.Article Citation - WoS: 13Citation - Scopus: 10An Analysis of International Relations Academics in Turkey and Their Approaches To the Field: Trip 2014 Faculty Survey Results(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği, 2016) Aydın, Mustafa; Aydın, Mustafa; Hisarlıoğlu, Fulya; Yazgan, KorhanDespite the increasing interest in the studies inquiring the limits autonomous character of and the interactions between the International Relations (IR) discipline and other academic fields the scope and scale of empirical research on these issues are relatively small. In order to contribute to the discussion on the limits and peculiarities of the IR discipline and to shed light on the development current status and major characteristics of the IR studies in Turkey its place in the global IR discipline and the views of LR. scholars on major issues on the global regional and national agenda two surveys were conducted by the International Relations Council of Turkey (IRCT) in 2007 and 2009. Later on the IRTC collaborated with the Institute for the Theory and Practice of International Relations at the College of William and Mary to conduct further surveys in 2011 and 2014. This paper presents findings of the last survey on Turkey based on the worldwide research simultaneously conducted in 31 different countries in September 2014.Article Araştırma Merkezlerinin Yükselişi, Türkiye’de Dış Politika ve Ulusal Güvenlik Kültürü(Uluslararası İlişkiler Konseyi Derneği İktisadi İşletmesi, 2012) Çelik, Nihat[Abstract Not Available]Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 6Are We at All Liberal at Heart? High-Powered Tests Find No Effect of Intuitive Thinking on Moral Foundations(Academic Press Inc., 2021) Yılmaz, Onurcan;İşler, Ozan;Doğruyol, Burak; Yılmaz, OnurcanTwo opposing views define the debate on the moral principles underlying human behavior. One side argues a central role for five moral foundations (care, fairness, loyalty, authority, sanctity), while the other argues that two of these (care, fairness) capture the essence of human moral concerns. In an experiment comparing these two views, Wright and Baril (2011) found that conservatives under cognitive load devalue loyalty, authority and sanctity, and become more liberal. Their finding of common intuitive concern with care and fairness supports the two-foundation perspective. In two high-powered preregistered experiments (N = 3275), we used time-pressure to induce intuitive thinking and tested Wright and Baril's finding that “we are all liberals at heart.” Although the manipulations worked as intended, Study 1 failed to identify an effect on the moral foundations questionnaire (MFQ). We conjectured that familiarity with standard survey items may weaken intuition manipulations by eliciting stable opinions. In Study 2, we therefore used not only the MFQ but also novel moral foundations vignettes. Study 2 failed to find an effect of time-pressure on either questionnaire type. An internal Bayesian meta-analysis indicated strong evidence against an effect of intuitive thinking on moral foundations.Article Citation - WoS: 53Citation - Scopus: 75Assessing the Importance of International Tourism for the Turkish Economy: a Social Accounting Matrix Analysis(Elsevier Science, 2012) Akkemik, K. Ali; Akkemik, Küçük Ali; Akkemik, K. AliThe international tourism sector has grown rapidly in Turkey since the 1980s and Turkey ranks among the top ten countries in terms of tourist arrivals and receipts. Previous studies on international tourism in Turkey are partial equilibrium studies which emphasized the importance of the sector for foreign exchange earnings employment creation and economic growth. The social accounting matrix (SAM) modeling approach is superior to partial equilibrium analysis as it takes into account intersectoral linkages. This paper analyzes the contribution of international tourism to the Turkish economy using two SAMs for 1996 and 2002 respectively. Two analyses are conducted using the SAM impact model: (i) sectoral comparison of GDP elasticities and (ii) SAM impact analysis of international tourism on output value-added and employment. The results show that the GDP elasticity of international tourism is relatively low and the impact of foreign tourist expenditures on domestic production value-added (GDP) and employment in Turkey are modest. The results imply the possibility of leakage of foreign tourist expenditures out of the economy. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.

Bu makalenin ana tezi ülkelerin dış politika yoluyla oluşturdukları kimliklerin sadece konum, kültür ve değerden ibaret olmadığı, bu denkleme bir de ülkelerin üstlendikleri uluslararası işlevin eklenmesi gerektiğidir. Türkiye örneğini değerlendirmek amacıyla Türkiye’nin NATO’ya girişinden hemen önce ve sonrasında Türkiye Büyük Millet Meclisi’nde (TBMM) yapılan çeşitli konuşmalar incelenmiştir. Varılan sonuç bu yıllarda konum, kültür ve değer olarak kendini Batılı sayan Türkiye’nin Doğu’ya uzanmayı görev olarak bellediği ve dolayısıyla üstü kapalı bir eşiksel kimlik yaratıldığıdır.Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Attachment Anxiety Benefits From Security Priming: Evidence From Working Memory Performance(Public Library Science, 2018) Gökçe, Ahu; Gökçe, Ahu; Harma, Mehmet; Harma, MehmetThe present study investigates the relationship between the attachment dimensions (anxious vs. avoidance) and the cognitive performance of individuals specifically whether the attachment dimensions would predict the working memory (WM) performance. In the n-back task reflecting the WM capacity both attachment related and non-attachment related words were used. Participants were randomly assigned into two groups that received either the secure or the neutral subliminal priming. In the secure priming condition the aim was to induce sense of security by presenting secure attachment words prior to the n-back task performance. In neutral priming condition neutral words that did not elicit sense of security were presented. Structural equation modeling revealed divergent patterns for attachment anxiety and avoidance dimensions under the different priming conditions. In neutral priming condition WM performance declined in terms of capacity in the n-back task for individuals who rated higher levels of attachment anxiety. However in the secure priming condition WM performance was boosted in the n-back task for individuals who rated higher levels of attachment anxiety. In other words the subliminal priming of the security led to increased WM capacity of individuals who rated higher levels of attachment anxiety. This effect however was not observed for higher levels of attachment avoidance. Results are discussed along the lines of hyperactivation and deactivation strategies of the attachment system.Article Citation - WoS: 21Citation - Scopus: 20The Availability of Abortion at State Hospitals in Turkey: a National Study(Elsevier, 2017) O'Neil, Mary Lou; Louıse Şimşek, MaryIntroduction: Abortion in Turkey has been legal since 1983 and remains so today. Despite this in 2012 the Prime Minister declared that in his opinion abortion was murder. Since then there has been growing evidence that abortion access particularly in state hospitals is being restricted although no new legislation has been offered. Objectives: The study aimed to determine the number of state hospitals in Turkey that provide abortions. Study design: The study employed a telephone survey in 2015-2016 where 431 state hospitals were contacted and asked a set of questions by a mystery patient. If possible information was obtained directly from the obstetrics/gynecology department. I removed specialist hospitals from the data set and the remaining data were analyzed for frequency and cross-tabulations were performed. Results: Only 7.8% of state hospitals provide abortion services without regard to reason which is provided for by the current law while 78% provide abortions when there is a medical necessity. Of the 58 teaching and research hospitals in Turkey 9 (15.5%) provide abortion care without restriction to reason 38 (65.5%) will do the procedure if there is a medical necessity and 11 (11.4%) of these hospitals refuse to provide abortion services under any circumstances. There are two regions encompassing 1.5 million women of childbearing age where no state hospital provides for abortion without restriction as to reason. Conclusion: The vast majority of state hospitals only provide abortions in the narrow context of a medical necessity and thus are not implementing the law to its full extent. It is clear that although no new legislation restricting abortion has been enacted state hospitals are reducing the provision of abortion services without restriction as to reason. Implications: This is the only nationwide study to focus on abortion provision at state hospitals. (C) 2017 Elsevier Inc.

We model such problems as a superset of the standard domain of Nash (1950). We first show that this domain extension creates a very large number of new rules. In particular, decomposable rules (which are extensions of rules from the Nash domain) constitute a nowhere dense subset of all possible rules. For them, we analyze the process through which "good" properties of rules on the Nash domain extend to ours. We then enquire whether the counterparts of some well-known results on the Nash (1950) domain continue to hold for decomposable rules on our extended domain. We first show that an extension of the Kalai-Smorodinsky bargaining rule uniquely satisfies the Kalai and Smorodinsky (1975) properties. This uniqueness result, however, turns out to be an exception. We characterize the uncountably large classes of decomposable rules that survive the Nash (1950), Kalai (1977), and Thomson (1981) properties. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
