Yayın Saito, K. (2023). Marx in the Anthropocene: Towards the idea of degrowth communism. Cambridge University Press(Işık Üniversitesi Yayınları, 2024-04-30) Güzelsoy, HalitKohei 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.Yayın How do human resources practices affect the performance of the employees in Syria? International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC)(IGI Global, 2024-03-05) Soykut Sarıca, Yeşim Pınar; Kekhia, BahjatThe purpose of this research is to analyses how HRM practices affect worker output in a high-pressure setting like the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Syria. It contributes to literature by expanding the understanding of HRM. It provides useful insights and ideas for improving the efficiency of HRM procedures in businesses. This study highlighted the need for the ICRC to prioritize and invest in strong human resource management practices. Primary data was collected from ICRC employees through survey questionnaire. Findings show that HRM practices have a significant direct impact on the motivation and performance of ICRC employees. Meanwhile, psychological safety mediates the relationship between employee's motivation and employee's performance. On the other hand, employee's motivation partially mediates the relationship between HR Practices and employee's performance at ICRC.Yayın An analysis of risk transfer and trust nexus in international trade with reference to Turkish data(IGI Global, 2022-08-05) Şen Taşbaşı, Aslı; Soykut Sarıca, Yeşim Pınar; Yüksel, Ahmet HakanInternational trade introduces a range of risks, which causes uncertainty over the timing of delivery and payment between exporters and importers. This chapter is a first attempt in dissecting Turkey's trade data in terms of risk allocation and trust between the parties involved. Breaking down Turkish export and import data for the years 2000 to 2018 according to methods of payment and use of currencies, the chapter first finds the risk is distributed unevenly between the exporter and the importer. Then findings are evaluated to open a new avenue of future research, constructed on the inquiry whether emerging economies like Turkey can establish trust in their trade with developed economies by using blockchain technology.Yayın Gap between mobile and online advergames: the possible effects of the optimal gaming experience-flow(IGI Global, 2022-10-07) Ozansoy Çadırcı, Tuğçe; Sağkaya Güngör, AyşegülMobile and online advergames are likely to influence brand associations differently. Regardless of the advergame environment, successful games are capable of taking the player into the flow state. How the experience of flow influences the outcomes of the advergames in different environments is a new and an important subject for the advertisers. In order to understand the outcomes (i.e., brand recall and brand attitude) of the advergames in different mediums (online vs. mobile) with the flow introduced, a lab experiment was conducted. Results of the experiment yielded that brand recall and brand attitude were different in different environments. When the interaction of skill and challenge was introduced to the study, however, hypotheses were partially supported. Furthermore, arousal resulted in better brand recall and more positive brand attitudes in the mobile environment. Lastly, time distortion caused no difference in brand attitude, while supporting mobile in brand recall.Yayın Innovation and technology from marketing perspective (from the 1980s to 2000s) with a case study on Turkish women entrepreneurs on agricultural cooperatives(Peter Lang AG, 2020-03-02) Develi, Evrim İldem[No abstract available]Yayın Closing the loops: Business model approaches for circular economy(Peter Lang AG, 2020-03-02) Özekan, Damla[No abstract available]Yayın Advergaming - how does cognitive overload effect brand recall? Differences between in-game advertising (IGA) and advergames(IGI Global, 2017-01-06) Şağkaya Güngör, Ayşegül; Ozansoy Çadırcı, Tuğçe; Köse, Şirin GizemAdvergaming serves as a new and valuable form of online advertising, especially for companies that target young consumers. This study examines the impacts of cognitive overload with placement prominence on respondents' brand recall, recognition and brand attitudes. An experiment was conducted on a group of university students with an exposure to an advergame under low and high cognitive load stimulus. Results showed that brands that are placed prominently are better recalled in high cognitive load condition. However, cognitive overload doesn't have any significant effect on the recognition of the main brand in which the advergames is specifically designed. Moreover, there is no difference in recall of subtly placed products in low and high cognitive load conditions. However, there is a significant difference in brand attitude in different cognitive loads. The study both investigated the context of advergames and as well in-game advertising (IGA) situations. The results of the study have both practical and theoretical implications.Yayın Labor and employment relations in a globalized world new perspectives on work, social policy and labor market implications introduction(Springer, 2014) Dereli, Toker; Soykut Sarıca, Yeşim Pınar; Şen Taşbaşı, Aslı[No abstract available]Yayın Sales promotional strategies and buying behavior in an emerging market at the post recession period(IGI Global, 2016) Nasır, Suphan; Bal, EsraThe aim of this study is to investigate the influence of sales promotional tools on consumer buying behavior in an emerging market at the post-recession period. This study assesses consumers' proneness to sales promotions and examines the effectiveness of four promotional tools that are premium offers, coupons, buy and get promotions, and price discounts on buying behavior in terms of brand switching, stockpiling, purchase acceleration, and product trial. The findings reveal that consumers are more prone to price discount and buy and get promotions, respectively. Among the four promotional tools, price discount is the most effective to influence product acceleration, brand switching, stockpiling, and product trial behavior respectively. However, there is no statistically significance difference between the effectiveness of premium offer and buy and get deals with regard to brand switching behavior, product acceleration, and product trail responses. In contrast, coupons are the least ineffective promotional tool in terms of generating all types of consumer response.Yayın Developing organizational maturity for effective project management(IGI Global, 2018-03-09) Silvius, A.

They also enable users to share information concerning experiences and opinions about products, brands and companies via electronic word of mouth (eWOM). The unique nature of oSNS-eWOM relationship forms the basis of this research. The authors report the results of a research investigating six motivational factors for engaging in eWOM communication, investigated under three dimensions; producing, consuming and forwarding of content on oSNSs. Results reveal that eWOM production behavior on oSNS is mainly motivated by altruism, self enhancement, electronic social interaction and exhibitionism. The motivating factors of eWOM forwarding behavior showed up as electronic social interaction and exhibitionism, whereas the motivating factors for eWOM consumption behavior are altruism, electronic social interaction and need for intellectual engagement. Aversion of cognitive activities appeared to have a negative effect on consumption of eWOM communicationYayın The new labor skills in the new economy(Springer, 2014-03-06) Falcıoğlu, PınarIn the last 30 years a dramatic change has been observed in the supply and price of skilled labor relative to unskilled labor. The aim of this chapter is to review the recent empirical literature on the changing demand for labor skills, to define the scope and direction of change in labor skills and to explore the reasons of the observed change, especially on the labor skills demanded in knowledge based global economy. Findings on the reasons of skill change are important for the study aims of this book because they lead to results and consequently to implications to be used in the distribution of earnings and employment of the workforce. The empirical research identifies the main reasons of the observed change in skills as the interactions of technological change, organizational change and globalization.Yayın Skills, technology and working practices in Turkey(Kluwer Law International, 2013-11-25) Falcıoğlu, Pınar[No abstract available]Yayın Visiting the iron cage: Bureaucracy and the contemporary workplace(Springer, 2014-03-06) Yüksel, Ahmet HakanBureaucracy as an organizational form has always been a controversial issue and placed at the very heart of most discussions within organizational theory. One side of this prolonged discussion praises this administrative form as the ‘rational’ way to run an organization. It provides needed guidance and clarifies responsibilities, which enables employees to become more efficient. However, the opposition claims that in a non-linear world, where industrial organizations are forced to confront the challenging task of sensing and responding to unpredictable, novel situations of highly competitive markets, such an organizational form stifles creativity, fosters de-motivation and causes pressure on employees. Dealing with a bureaucratic form of organization and its consequences begs for a context. It would be appropriate to quit ‘taking sides’ and develop a sound analysis of this phenomenon under the conditions of today’s global workplace environment. This chapter intends to delineate the conditions under which bureaucracy has emerged and the way it has been interpreted since its inception and develop a sound and appropriate analytical approach to its functioning given the prevailing conditions of the contemporary workplace.Yayın Dealing with destructive workplace behaviour: an overview of mobbing in Turkish organisations(Kluwer Law International, 2013-11-11) Yüksel, Ahmet Hakan[No abstract available]Yayın CSR practices in Turkey: Examining CSR reports(Greenleaf Publishing, 2015-07) Uyan Atay, Bilge; Tuncay Çelikel, AslıThis study examines the private companies that publish CSR reports in Turkey. Turkey has a growing economy, located in an international arena with an increasing number of global brands starting to export their products from Turkey with even more multinational enterprises (MNEs) planning to locate in the country. Now, some Turkish companies and subsidiaries of MNEs have started to publish CSR reports. Our findings show that strong Turkish conglomerates are playing a constructive role in macro-level development and governance in Turkey. They are also addressing local problems such as education, human rights, environmental protection and workers' rights. Besides, subsidiaries of MNEs are also having an impact with respect to the application of their headquarters' community programs in Turkish society.
