It has been estimated that by 2050, four of the top five economies in the world will all be in Asia, with India, Japan and Indonesia all taking a spot alongside China in surpassing the United States, and revealing a global shift toward the Asian axis. While the Asia-Pacific discourse that has emerged since the Cold War promotes a China-centered understanding of Asia, a South Asian country, India, is emerging as a second rising power on the Asian continent and is taking a central position in the region. The continuing discourse will play an active role in the construction of a South Asian identity and its acceptance in the international arena.

Lebanon, had non-visible relationships with Turkey after its independence and the post-civil war period. Although it lost the balance of political stability at times, the political affinity that emerged with the participation of Lebanon in the close relations, which Turkey sought to establish with Arab countries in the 2000s, continued with mutual negotiations at the point of cooperation. After the Lebanon-Israel war in 2006, which caused political and economic destruction in the country, Turkey increased its support for Lebanon. Accordingly, the crises appeared after the Arab Spring in the region led Turkey to follow the sensitive policy over the sectarian groups in the country. However, some reactions arose in Lebanon's political arena against Turkey's increasing regional activism, bringing several ideological questions on Turkey's approach towards Lebanon. Regarding the relationship between Turkey and Lebanon, "Does Turkey desire to establish a new Ottoman administration in the Middle East?" was one of the questions asked. Moreover, a negative environment was created and used occasionally as a trump card against Turkey's approach toward Lebanon, saying that even the Ottoman Empire did not play an active role in the Lebanon region.
This study examines whether there are traces of Neo-Ottomanism and sectarianism in the political roadmap followed by the Turkish Government in its Lebanon policy. It discusses, the diplomatic response of Turkey to the anti-Ottoman rhetoric in Lebanese politics and its effect on bilateral relations. Accordingly, the study analyzes Turkey's effort to maintain the balance against sectarian discourse that shapes Lebanon's policy.

Tarihin pek çok döneminde insanlık salgın hastalıklar, afetler, sel, heyelan, çığ gibi felaketlere maruz kalmıştır. Bu felaketlerden biri de depremdir. Bir deprem ülkesi olarak Türkiye'nin tarihte hangi dönemlerde deprem felaketiyle karşı karşıya kaldığını anlayabilmek adına kronikler bizlere önemli ipuçları sunarlar. Zira Orta Çağ'da yaşanan pek çok afetle ilgili olarak kronikler son derece kapsamlı veriler içerirler. Bu nedenle bu çalışmada Orta Çağ'da Süryani Mihail'in Vakayinamesi adlı eseri ile Mihial'in çağdaşları olan Sımbat, Urfalı Mateos ve Vardan'ın eserlerinde depreme dair veriler ele alınacaktır. Söz konusu eserlerde yer alan bilgilerden hareketle tarihte hangi aralıklarla depremlerin meydana geldiği anlaşılmaya çalışılacaktır. Söz konusu depremlerin hangi bölgelerde meydana geldiği, bu bölgelerin günümüzdeki şehir olarak hangi illere tekabül ettiği de incelenecektir. Orta Çağ'da insanların depremlerden korunmak için ne tür tedbirler aldıkları üzerinde de durulacaktır. Böylece Orta Çağ boyunca yaşanan depremlerden hareketle günümüzdeki depremlerin açıklanmasına katkı sağlanmaya ve bundan sonraki depremlerin seyrine dair birtakım çıkarımlar/analizler yapılmaya çalışılacaktır.

In a pivotal judgment delivered by the Grand Chamber, the European Court of Human Rights held that the conviction of a former teacher Yüksel Yalcinkaya violated Articles 6,7 and 11 of the Convention. The applicant Yalcinkaya was a teacher who was dismissed with an emergency decree enacted during the state of emergency rule between 2016 and 2018 and was subsequently prosecuted and convicted for his use of the ByLock app and for his membership in a teachers' union and an association which were also closed down with an emergency decree. In Erdogan's ever more repressive Turkey, usage of said app or membership in organizations and unions may lead to arrest. Especially anything that appears remotely related to the oppositional Gulen movement carries the risk of persecution.

Türkiye stands at the forefront of countries that have embraced a considerable number of refugees and asylum-seekers, making it a prominent host for displaced populations worldwide. In recent years, Türkiye has developed a novel and inclusive approach designed to facilitate the access of refugees to higher education. This article endeavours to examine Türkiye's policy framework and intricate challenges that arise during its implementation, with a keen focus on how top-down policy interventions interact with institutional bureaucracies and the socio-cultural context. The
study postulates that while Türkiye boasts a national inclusive policy, the effectiveness and outcome of its implementation lie within the realm of decentralization. The success or failure of
the policy hinges on the institutional capacity, willingness of the higher education institutions to accept refugee students and the sociological dynamics between locals and refugee students. For the
policy to genuinely thrive, it necessitates addressing institutional disparities and variances among higher education institutions.
