Yayın In bourgeoisie we trust, but which one? Islamism, development, and the “Finance Curse”(UiTM Press, 2015-01) Demiralp, SedaThe rise of Islamic financial institutions in the past decades stimulated studies that investigated their link to Islamic parties. Some perspectives viewed them as the financial wing of Islamic extremism. Others argued that the rise of an Islamic bourgeoisie, especially if integrated into the global economy, promotes moderation and liberalization among Islamic groups. This study investigates the relationship between the type of Islamic capital and Islamic moderation. In addition, it analyzes how state institutions can shape the trajectories of Islamic movements through economic policies. In this regard we compare and contrast production based capitalism which empowers industrial actors versus finance based capitalism which may not support the industry but strengthen financial elites. We find that production based development is more likely to promote mutual wins among Islamic and other actors and facilitate moderation than finance based economies which may promote zero-sum games and polarization.Yayın Agritourism for the development of impoverished rural regions: generating value-added for the region(Işık Üniversitesi, Lisansüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, 2025-12-26) Ak, Anda Elvan; Teker, Dilek; Işık Üniversitesi, Lisansüstü Eğitim Enstitüsü, Çağdaş İşletme Yönetimi Doktora Programı; Işık Üniversitesi, School of Graduate Studies, Contemporary Business ManagementRural poverty remains one of the most pressing global challenges, often driving migration from agricultural villages to urban centers. This trend reduces the agricultural workforce, leaves arable lands uncultivated, accelerates erosion, and heightens risks of future food insecurity. Addressing rural poverty, therefore, requires solutions rooted in rural areas. Agriculture is a very important element to overcoming this challenge, and when combined with tourism, it creates new opportunities for rural revitalization. Agritourism—an emerging form of tourism that integrates agricultural practices with the experiences of consumers—has demonstrated significant potential over the past decades to increase the incomes of small and medium-sized farmers while generating value-added for rural economies. This thesis explores agritourism’s role in rural development through two separate surveys conducted with potential agritourism consumers and farmers in Türkiye. Findings indicate that consumers while preferring authentic farm-based experiences, express their willingness to purchase local products, and associate agritourism with health, leisure, and environmental benefits. Farmers, on the other hand, while open to agritourism practices, require encouragement, training, and digital marketing support, and they generally prefer short-term, day-visit models. Obtained results suggest that fostering a supportive agritourism ecosystem requires targeted training, regional platforms for product promotion, and collaboration between farmers and academic researchers. This thesis highlights agritourism’s potential as a regenerative pathway for Türkiye’s rural regions, contributing simultaneously to poverty alleviation, cultural preservation, and sustainable tourism.
