İktisatta kullanılan dijitalleşme ölçü birimleri üzerine bir değerlendirme
(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2024-04-30) Görkey, Selda
Bu çalışmada, iktisat disiplininde kullanılan dijitalleşme göstergeleri; oranlar, bileşik göstergeleri temsilen endeksler ve parasal göstergeler olmak üzere üç ölçü birimi çerçevesinde karşılaştırılmakta ve özellikle makro iktisadi ampirik araştırmalar açısından bir değerlendirme yapılmaktadır. Yapılan araştırma, oranların kolay elde edilmelerine yönelik güçlü avantajlarına karşın, çok boyutlu dijitalleşme kavramını ancak kısmen ölçebildiğini göstermektedir. Ayrıca ilgili kavramın dinamik yapısı, oransal göstergelerin sürekli olarak güncellenmesini gerektirmekte, bu durum da uzun zaman boyutlu çalışmalar açısından sorun oluşturmaktadır. Endeksler ise, dijitalleşme ekosisteminin kapsamını daha iyi temsil etseler de alt göstergelerinde oranları içerdiklerinden, oranlar için bahsedilen dezavantajlar endeksler için de geçerli hale gelmektedir. Çalışma ile, iktisat disiplininde dijitalleşmenin parasal göstergelerle daha iyi temsil edildiği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Bunda, ilgili göstergelerin, dijitalleşme için yapılan toplulaştırılmış faaliyetleri daha iyi ölçebilmeleri ve uzun dönemli olarak elde edilebilmeleri etkili olmuştur. Dolayısıyla bu çalışmayla, ilgili literatürde, oranların ve endekslerin tek ya da kısa dönemli analizlerde kullanılmasının, parasal göstergelerin ise hem kısa hem de uzun dönemli ülke içi ve ülkeler arası araştırmalarda kullanılmasının uygun olabileceği sonucuna ulaşılmıştır. Varılan bu sonuçlar ile, dijitalleşmenin ölçümü konusuna, veri ile çalışmanın büyük önem taşıdığı iktisat disiplini açısından katkıda bulunulması amaçlanmaktadır.
Biometric technology and policy narratives on migration control: the case of Turkey
(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2024-04-30) Karakaya Polat, Rabia
This paper analyses policy narratives on the use of biometric technology in mobile migration vehicles as a means of surveillance and control over irregular migration. Equipped with biometric control technology and appearing in random places with high migrant concentrations, these vehicles have been put into operation as effective control and surveillance tools. Drawing upon literatures on technological control, migration governance, and interpretive policy analysis (IPA), the paper demonstrates how these vehicles are deployed not only for controlling irregular migration but also for instilling a sense of control to the general public. Comparison of these mobile migration points to the ‘Go Home Van’ campaign in the UK in 2013 reveals interesting differences in their design, function, and public perception. The paper also demonstrates how new technologies enable governments to combine ‘softer’ and ‘more subtle’ approaches in migration control with more coercive measures such as detention and deportation.
Saito, K. (2023). Marx in the Anthropocene: Towards the idea of degrowth communism. Cambridge University Press
(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2024-04-30) Güzelsoy, Halit
Kohei Saito reviews the Marxian approach to ecology, building on the work done under MEGA project. Marx’s perspective on history and the exploitation of nature differs significantly from what commonly attributed to him. Saito rigorously examines Marx’s evolving ideas, questioning concepts such as economic growth, free time, and the development of productive forces. Consequently, the absolute conclusion to be drawn from Marx’s ideas is not the glorification of endless production. By redefining wealth, the concept of degrowth communism emerges as an important political strategy.
Assessing the mediating relationships between psychological factors in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and cognitive disengagement syndrome
(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2024-04) İnci İzmir, Sevim Berrin; Aktan, Zekeriya Deniz; Ercan, Eyüp Sabri
This study aims to investigate the predictive and mediating relationships between emotion dysregulation, internalizing disorders, family functionality, loneliness preference, and executive functions (EF) in children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and cognitive disengagement syndrome (ADHD + CDS). This study included 176 children and adolescents (92 boys, 84 girls) who were diagnosed with ADHD + CDS according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, the Fifth Edition criteria by a fellowship-trained child and adolescent psychiatrist, between ages 8 -12 (M = 10, SD = 1.52) with a convenience sampling method. The solitude scale for children, difficulties in emotion dysregulation scale, Child Behavior Checklist, Barkley Sluggish Cognitive Tempo Scale, Family assessment device, and CNS Vital Signs test were used. The results showed that difficulty in emotion regulation, preference for loneliness, internalizing disorders and CDS symptom severity did not have a mediating effect between family functionality and EF. Still, emotion dysregulation mediates the relationship between EF and internalizing disorders by itself and through loneliness preference. Also, preference for loneliness and emotion dysregulation had a mediating effect between family functionality and internalizing disorders. Finally, it was found that the effect of emotion regulation difficulty, loneliness preference, and internalizing disorders had a mediating role between CDS symptom severity and family functionality. In conclusion, the information obtained from this study on the etiology of CDS may guide future studies.
The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on online grocery supply chain management: a case study in Istanbul
(Gazi Üniversitesi, 2024-03) Javadi, Sonya; Keten, Olcay; Özer, Ali İhsan; Alkan, Remziye Zeynep
The COVID-19 pandemic has already crippled normal life all over the world. Its negative impact not only changed the human health system tragically but also disrupted the global economic system. One negative result was ended up in the global food supply chain. As the lockdown times have suspended the manufacturing and logistic activities, therefore, the customers have experienced unimaginable chaos in the shopping markets. Moreover, the purchasing habit of the consumers has remarkably changed compared to pre-pandemic. To meet this new demand pattern, many grocery retailers have tried to adapt to the new normal. While before COVID-19 offline grocery purchasing was popular, after the pandemic, online service got tremendous attention in market. In this study, online grocery supply chain management during the COVID-19 in Istanbul is considered. The aim is to find out how online grocery companies will serve more efficiently during the pandemics and which factors have more effect on the customer’s satisfaction. To do so, first, three popular grocery retailers in Istanbul were selected. Then, a related survey was designed to understand the consumer experience as doing online grocery shopping in COVID-19. Unsurprisingly, a result shows that 60% of the respondents did online shopping every 3-4 days in one week, and the delivery time is the most important factor for the customers. Then, the SWOT analyses were performed accordingly, and the related strategies were summarized. Finally, several managerial implications were given to may improve the company’s online services in COVID-19 and post COVID-19 in Turkey.
