The concept of thriving at work is an important concept that scientists and businesses have been interested in for a long time, and many studies and experiments have been made on how employees will be successful at work. It is thought that thriving at work will be more effective and important not only unilaterally, but also the individual's self-development, with the effect of his interaction in the workplace. In this study, the mediating role of employee voice in the thriving at work-on-work alienation was examined, with reference to social exchange theory. In this context, data were collected from 263 employees of a private factory operating in the province of Erzincan by survey method. The obtained data were analyzed with statistical programs (SPSS 22, AMOS 23 and PROCESS macro). As a result of the analyzes, it was seen that thriving at work had a negative effect on work alienation and a positive effect on employee voice, at the same time, there was a negative relationship between employee voice and work alienation. In addition, it has been determined that the voice of the employee has a mediating role in the effect of thriving at work-on-work alienation. In the literature, there is no study that examines these three variables together and examines the mediating role of employee voice in the relationship between thriving at work and work alienation. In this respect, it is anticipated that the research will contribute to the literature and will be an important resource in future studies.

Sportif müsabakaların adil oyun çerçevesinde skor ve gidişatında büyük etkisi olduğuna inanılan hakemlerin fizyolojik ve psikolojik durumlarının yanı sıra kural bilgisi ve tecrübelerinin de verdikleri kararlar üzerindeki etkisi büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu kapsamda çalışmamızda, müsabakanın yürütülmesinde vazgeçilmez bir unsur olan voleybol hakemlerinin öz yeterlik düzeyleri ve karar verme becerileri arasındaki ilişkilerin incelenmesi amaçlanmıştır. Çalışmaya 2017/2018 voleybol sezonunda faal olan çeşitli klasman (A, B, C ve KD) ve seviyede (aday, il, ulusal ve uluslararası), 106 erkek, 82 kadın olmak üzere toplam 188 voleybol hakemi katılmıştır. Çalışmaya katılan hakemlere Kişisel Bilgi Formu, Hakem Öz Yeterlik Ölçeği, Genel Öz Yeterlik Ölçeği ve Melbourne Karar Verme Ölçeği uygulanmıştır. Araştırma kapsamında toplanan anket verileri SPSS for Windows 23.0 paket programına aktarılarak değerlendirilmiştir. Ölçekler arasındaki ilişkiler Spearman korelasyon analizi ile, gruplar arası farklılık incelemesini içeren araştırma sorularında ise iki grup arasındaki farklar Mann-Whitney U testi, ikiden fazla grup arasındaki farklar ise Kruskal Wallis-H testi ile irdelenmiştir. Analiz sonuçları güven aralığında değerlendirildi ve "p<0.05" değeri istatistiksel olarak anlamlı farklılık kabul edildi. Hakemlerin öz yeterlik seviyeleri ve dikkatli karar verme stili arasında güven düzeyinde anlamlı ve pozitif bir korelasyon ilişkisi tespit edildi. (r=0.210) Hakemlerin öz yeterliliği artıkça dikkatli karar verme eğilimi de artmakta, kaçıngan, erteleyici ve panik karar verme eğilimi azalmaktadır. (p<0.05) Hakemlik klasmanı ve hakemlik yılı arttıkça, karar vermede özsaygı ve dikkatli karar verme stillerinde pozitif yönde, kaçıngan, erteleyici ve panik karar verme stillerinde negatif yönde ilişki olduğu tespit edilmiştir. 1-5 yıl arasında mesleki tecrübeye sahip hakemlerin; 6-10 yıl ve 16 yıl ve üzeri hakemlik tecrübesine sahip hakemlerden anlamlı oranda hakem öz yeterliliği, oyun bilgisi ve karar verme alt boyutundan daha düşük, kaçıngan ve panik karar verme stillerinde daha yüksek düzeyde oldukları tespit edilmiştir. (p<0.05) Aday hakemlerin ulusal ve uluslararası seviyedeki hakemlerden daha yüksek kaçıngan karar verme eğiliminde oldukları, ayrıca il, ulusal ve uluslararası seviyedeki hakemlerden daha yüksek panik karar verme eğiliminde oldukları tespit edilmiştir. (p<0.05) Daha önce voleybol oynayan hakemlerin, oynamayanlara oranla fiziksel yeterlilik öz yeterliliği bakımından daha yüksek düzeyde olduğu tespit edilmiştir. (p<0.05) Sonuç olarak elde edilen bulgular voleybol hakemlerinin öz yeterlikleri ve öz güvenleri, doğru ve yerinde karar vermelerinde önemlilik arz ettiği bu nedenle öz yeterlik ve öz güven düzeylerinin geliştirilmeleri için erken yaşlarda hakemlik eğitime başlanması, hakemliğin üniversitelerde ders olarak okutulması, hakemlere uygulamaya dönük eğitimlerin arttırılması gerektiği kanaatine varılmıştır. ; For Referces who are believed to have big imparet on scores and the process of the matches in fair play frames ,physical and psychological states have very important effects to make decisions as well as their knowledge of rules of the games and experiences. In this context in our research, we aimed to analyse the self sufficeney level and deciding ability of volleyball referees who are indispencible elements to start the game according to the rules and gaming process. In our research we included 106 male , 82 female and in total 188 referees who are still actıve in 2017/2018 volleyball season from different divisions (A,B,C and KD) and level capprentice, province, natiomal and international. Personal information form self sufficieney scale for refereas, general self sufficiency scale and Melbourne decision making scale have been applied to the referees whom we have included in our research. In the context of our research, the date gathered have been transferred to SPSS for Windows packate programme and evalvated by this way. The relationships between the scales have been studied spearman corelatıon,the research guestion which includes the Differences between groups and tho groups have been studied mann –whitney U test, the differences between the groups which are more than two have bean studied Kruskal Wallis-H test.The results of the analyse have been evaluated between 95% confidence interval and p< 0,05 valve have been accepted as meoningful difference statistically. A meaningful and positive corelation has been spotted between referees selfsufficiency level and accurate decision style on 95% confidence level.(r=0.210) As the level of self sufficiency of referees increases, the tendency of accurate decision increases, avoidant, dilatory and panicked decision making tendeney decreases, though. As the referee ranking and referce years increase, a positive relation has been confirmed on selfesteam on decision making and accurate decision making styles but a negative relation has been confirmed on avoidant, dilatory and panicked decision making. Referees who have 1-5 year experience have been confimed that they have meaningfully less referee self sufficrency, knowledge of game and subdimension of decision making than the refereas who have 6-10 years experience or 16 years or more (p<0.05). Apperntice referees tend to give more avoidant decisions than the referees who are national or international levels. Besides this. Apprentice referees tend to give more panicked decisions than provincal, national or international level referees (p<0.005). A statistically meaning ful difference hasn't been found between the referees from different branches or actives and inactive referees about referee self sufficiency and subdimen tions (p<0.05). Make referees have been confirmed that they have higher self sufficiony about decision making,knowledge of game and referees self suficiency than female referees (p <0.005). All in all, findings gathered have importance on referees self sufficiency and selfconfidence and right and accurate decision making so we have reached the conclusion that starting the referee education at early ages, teaching referees at universities and increasing the tendency of working in the field as a referee are important to improve referees self –sufficiency and self confidence.

This research aims to understand and interpret the changes in the working and family lives of women entrepreneurs working in SMEs during the pandemic process. The research was designed with a phenomenological pattern by using qualitative research methods. The participants consisted of 14 women entrepreneurs selected by using purposeful and snowball sampling techniques among women entrepreneurs who received KOSGEB support in Ankara. Data were obtained through semi-structured interviews.
It has been revealed that the most important change in the working life of women entrepreneurs during the pandemic process is the decrease in incomes and increase in expenses. The decrease in business capacity has led women entrepreneurs to exhibit pessimistic attitudes towards working life. It is possible to collect other changes in working life under the categories of decrease in the number of customers, decrease in the number of employees, change in working hours, inability to save, consuming existing savings, working from home, benefiting from social media opportunities in working life.
Although some of the women entrepreneurs stated that the pandemic was functional in terms of increasing the interaction of family members, strengthening ties and providing the opportunity to rest, it is understood that the domestic workload of women entrepreneurs increased significantly in parallel with the negativities in their working life. There has been an increase in the use of domestic labor by women entrepreneurs such as care, cleaning, nutrition, and support for education. In this context, it can be claimed that the tendency of women entrepreneurs to stay away from work and withdraw to home life is getting stronger. As a result, the pandemic process has had a knock-on effect on the working and family lives of women entrepreneurs, and has had interrelated negative consequences that can be described as double disadvantage.

Danışman: DR. ÖĞR. ÜYESİ ALİHAN LİMONCUOĞLU Yer Bilgisi: İstanbul Gelişim Üniversitesi / Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü / Siyaset Bilimi ve Uluslararası İlişkiler Anabilim Dalı / Güvenlik Araştırmaları Bilim Dalı Konu: Uluslararası İlişkiler = International Relations ; PKK terör örgütünün, 1984-2018 yılları arasında Türkiye'de örgütsel yapılar oluşturarak cebir ve şiddet yoluyla terör eylemleri uyguladığı ve halen devam ettirdiği görülmektedir. PKK terör örgütünün ortaya çıkması ile eylemlerine başlaması dış ülkelerle ilişkilerin çok farklı düzeyde olup desteklerini aldığı görülmüştür. Toplumda terörün şiddet ve korku yaymasıyla birlikte tehdit eden bir yapıyla da karşımıza çıktığı görülmüştür. Bu oluşumun karşısında güvenlik güçleri terörizmle mücadelede etkili ve başarılı olup, birçok şehit vermiştir. Ayrıca terörle mücadelenin sadece askeri ve kolluk güçleriyle değil, toplumun her kesimiyle ortak hareket etme bilincine de sahip olması gerektiği görülmüştür. Terör ve terörizmle mücadelenin askeri, siyasi, kültürel, ekonomik, uluslararası diplomasi ve işbirliği ile sosyal olarak ele alınması önem arz etmektedir. Bu tez çalışmasının amacı, ilk bölümde terör, terör örgütü ve terörizmin anlaşılması konusu incelenmiştir. İkinci bölümde, PKK terör örgütü teşkilatının kurulmasının ardından dış bağlantılarla ilişkisi ve örgüt elebaşı kurucu üyesi Abdullah Öcalan'ın getirilmesi incelenmiştir. Son bölümde ise, terörün Türkiye'ye medya ve basın yayın yoluyla ülkemize sosyolojik ve psikolojik yönden etkilerinin yansıması analiz edilmiştir. Yapılan çalışma sonucunda, Terör örgütü eylemlerinin psikolojik savaş olarak topluma yansıması acıları da beraberinde getirmiş, sosyal problemler ve psikolojik problemler toplumu olumsuz yönde etkilediği görülmüştür. ; PKK terrorist organization has set up organizations in Turkey between 1984 and 2018. Violent terror attacks still continue today. PKK has managed gain support from foreign actors depending on its ability to form international bonds. It is obvious that society felt threatened by the actions of the terrorist group which used violence and intimidation as a tool. Security forces have fought a succesful battle against thi organization however has suffered many casualties. Moreover, fight against terror should not only be through the work of security forces but with the conciousness to act in unison with every layer of the society. It is important to take into consideration: military, political, cultural, economics, international diplomacy and social factor when dealing with terrorism. The aim of this work and explainining what terrorism is looked at in the first part of this work. In the second part, PKK's relationship with international actors and how Abdullah Ocalan, the leader of PKK, was brought to Turkey was examined. In the last part, terror's psychological and sociological effect on Turkey through media was looked at. In this study, it has been seen that the acts of terrorist organization as a psychological war have brought the pain to the society and social problems and psychological problems negatively affect the society.

The Ottoman administration took European armies as a model in all areas of military modernization. Taking modern armies as a model, both in educational and organizational means, provided the new technology weapons, which were the basic need of these armies, to enter the Ottoman army inventory. Each new weapon brought with it the need for training in the familiarization and use of the weapon. The Ottoman officers trained in modern military schools took part in meeting this need. In addition to playing an active role in weapon purchases, this staff shared their knowledge and experience for the effective use of such weapons. Thus, important works on modern firearms were published. Fenn-i Esliha (The Science of Weapon) books, one of these works offered to the use of military students and officers, contained general information about all firearms used in the Ottoman army. In addition to Fenn-i Esliha books, manuals written specifically for a weapon or a model also played a significant role in familiarizing new weapons. Mahmud Şevket Pasha, who gained serious experience in firearms with his duties and later rose to the position of grand vizier, was also one of the officers who penned his experiences. He had a book called Fenn-i Esliha as well as his three of other works were aimed at introducing Mauser rifles. These works containing detailed information on rifles were also supported by images. These three publications, from which the enthusiasts can access extremely specific and technical information, were among the most comprehensive examples of the firearm training literature of the Ottoman army.

Solid waste collectors play a key role in collecting domestic waste and recycling it. The negativities in the working environment and conditions of those who try to make a living by collecting solid waste affect their position in the social context. For this reason, in this study, the waste collection experiences of the actors in the solid waste collection sector were discussed. The economic and social disadvantages associated with their work were tried to be understood. In this qualitative study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 20 participants (one of whom owns a waste sorting facility and two of whom are facility employees) who make a living by collecting solid waste in Ordu, Turkey. The sampling of the interviews was determined by sequential sampling. But there were also those who were determined by a little snowball sampling. The data collected through interviews were analyzed using descriptive and content analysis techniques. The findings of the study revealed the experiences of solid waste collectors and the challenges they face in the sector with their economic and social dimensions. In this way, ideas were obtained about the working conditions of solid waste collectors and their place in working life, migration experiences, poverty levels and stigma situations. It also allows policymakers to gain insight into improvements to waste collectors' working conditions and social status.

Many studies on Mehmet Akif Ersoy, who is also known as "Homeland Poet" and "National Poet" in Turkish literature, show that he is in a structure suitable for realism and idealism, and that he frequently deals with subjects in which social concepts are at the forefront. Mehmet Akif collected all his poems in his work called Safahat, which consists of seven books. Family, which constitutes the core of the society and is the most basic building block that keeps it alive, comes first among the social concepts that he values. In his works, where he analyzes the various situations of the members of the family institution in depth, Akif focuses on the "child" and "young" individuals in this institution and the "education" needs of the new generation created by them. Akif has an intense interest in children and young people, because the way to know and serve a society is to know and understand the child well. The periods in which the individual evolves from childhood to youth and from there to adulthood; It has a critical meaning for the child, family and society. Being aware of this, Akif has been in an effort to create the ideal youth and thus to create the ideal society by emphasizing the family institution, which he almost sanctified and defined as the "heavenly palace" in his works. In this compilation type study, which is based on literature review and literature analysis as a method, based on Mehmet Akif Ersoy's work named Safahat, the concepts of "child", "young", "family" and "education", which are considered important in the progress of society, were evaluated from Akif's perspective and the importance of these concepts was tried to be revealed. When Mehmet Akif Ersoy's point of view on the aforementioned social concepts is examined both from his own works and from the works made about him, it seems possible to say that these views still maintain their validity today and that there are suggestions that can be a solution to many current social and educational problems.

This study intends to investigate the concept of social capital on the basis of evidence provided by theoretical perspectives and empirical studies. Various definitions of social capital touch upon beliefs, values, networks, and trust by complicating the meaning and creating conceptual chaos. In addition to shaky conceptual foundations, methodological inadequacies are also framing numerous problems and challenges. Moreover, lack of power, class, race, gender etc. analysis in the literature makes it difficult to contribute to poverty alleviation. In this respect, first, the origins of the social capital, definition, and the development of the concept will be explored. The investigation of the role of the World Bank in the promotion of the concept and the empirical evidences will constitute second part of this work. It is argued here in order to foster mechanisms of development, social capital projects require broader, more collaborative, and innovative approaches.

Safet Zec is one of the most prominent Bosnian painters and graphic artists. For decades he has been creating works with a certain number of motifs and returning to them on several occasions during his active years. Above all, in his works he depicts landscapes, architectural motifs (the house, the homestead, room, window, door...), still life (bread, a cloth, table, flower pot...), and human figures. While his early work dates back to a peaceful time in his life in former Yugoslavia, marked by an atmosphere of happiness, fulfillment, and freedom, his later works, which date from the war in Bosnia and Herzegovina and its end, depict the tragedy and collective suffering of a people. This paper aims to present the importance of the works of Safet Zec and to view his opus from the aspect of his choice of motifs, their transformation, and the message the artist conveys depending on the social circumstances. We hope that this paper will introduce the work of this artist to the wider and expert public, and provide a contribution to a broader view of his work, encouraging researchers to further study.

Özellikle seçim dönemlerinde yoksulların, aldıkları sosyal yardımlar çerçevesinde bir siyasal tercihte bulunduğu yönünde siyaset ve medya dünyasında yaygın bir şekilde tartışmalar yaşanmaktadır. Her bir birey gibi yoksullar da genel/ yerel seçimlerde bir takım beklentiler ve faktörler çerçevesinde siyasal tercih ortaya koymaktadırlar. Bu anlamda yoksullar, siyasal tercihlerine karar verirken hiç şüphesiz diğer faktörlerle birlikte yaşadıkları sorunlara çözüm getiren, yaşamlarını kolaylaştıracak ekonomik ve sosyal niteliği olan projeleri de dikkate almaktadırlar. Bu çalışma, sosyal yardımların yoksulların siyasal tercihinde etkisinin olup olmadığı, eğer etkisi var ise bu etkininin düzeyinin ne olduğu üzerinde durmaktadır. Elazığ merkezde yaşayan 220 yoksul üzerinde yapılan alan araştırması ile çalışmanın verileri elde edilmiştir. Bu verilere göre, yoksulların yardım aldığı kurum ve kuruluşlar arasında siyasi partiler sosyal yardımlaşma vakfı ve belediyelerin ardından üçüncü sırada yer almaktadır. Siyasi partilerden yardım alan yoksullar, bu siyasi partilere yönelik bir siyasal tercih eğiliminde olmakla birlikte; yoksulların siyasal tercihinde siyasal partilerin ekonomik vaatleri ile iş ve istihdama ilişkin vaatlerinin daha etkili olduğu sonucuna varılmıştır. ; In our country, political choices of the poor is a discussion topic as important as the reasons for and the results of poverty. Especially during the election periods, discussions arise in politics and on media on the idea that the poor make political choices based on the social aid they receive. Like every other individual, the poor also make political choices based on a set of expectations and factors in periods of general/local elections. In this sense, the poor, in addition to other factors, also pay regard to projects with economic and social nature that bring solutions to their problems and will make their lives easier. The purpose of this study is to understand whether social aid has effects on political choices of the poor, and if it does, to what extent these effects work. Findings of the study were gathered by field research conducted on 220 impoverished individuals living in Elazığ city center. According to the data, political parties are in the third place after social assistance foundations and municipalities among the institutions and organizations from which the poor receive the highest amount of social aid. While the poor who receive aid from political parties are likely to make a political choice in favor of these parties, it has been observed that economic pledges and pledges towards jobs and employment by political parties are more effective on the poor's political choices.

Danışman: Alihan Limoncuoğlu ; Modernleşme kavramına yönelik gelişmeler, 17. yüzyılda başlamış, 18. ve 19. yüzyıl ile devamlılık kazanmıştır. Dünya genelinde söz konusu gelişmeler, Osmanlı Devleti'ni de etkilemiş ve özellikle de orduda Batı'nın gücünü yansıtabilme eğilimli çalışmalar geliştirilmiştir. Osmanlı Devleti'nde bu durum, Tanzimat Dönemi ile beraber etkin bir şekilde değerlendirilmiş ve sonraki süreçte de etkin bir mekanizmayı yansıtmıştır. Türkiye'de, Cumhuriyet'in kurulması ile beraber modernleşmeye yönelik çalışmaların gelişmesi, öncelikli olarak halk üzerinde çağdaşlaşma adı altında gelişmeleri kapsamıştır. Bu durumda belirgin olan faktörler arasında, halkın geleneksellik yapısından uzaklaştırılması ve özellikle de din ile araya mesafe koyma eğilimli çalışmaları içermektedir. Halk tarafından onaylanmayan ve tepkiyle karşılaşılan unsurlar arasında, muhafazakârlık olgusunun uzaklaştırılması durumu önemli bir sorunsallık taşımaktadır. Türkiye'de Özal dönemi ile beraber gelişme gösteren anlayışlar arasında muhafazakâr kesimin düşüncelerine yönelik unsurlar önemli bir pozisyon kazanmıştır. Bu anlayışı geliştirmede Özal, liberalizm ve muhafazakârlık olgusunu önemli bir düzeyde irdeleyen ve geliştiren çalışmalar arasında yer almıştır. Özal'ın yeni-sağ yaklaşımı ile beraber liberalizm ve muhafazakârlık anlayışının yansıtıcıları değerlendirildiğinde, bu anlayışların siyasal hayat yapısını göstermesinde etkili olduğu belirtilebilmektedir. Aynı zamanda ifade edilen anlayışların geliştirilmesi sağlandığında, ekonomik temelde kalkınmayı sağlama hedefi ve dış ilişkilere yönelik politikaları önemli bir nitelik taşımaktadır. Özal'ın anlayışı içerisinde, demokratik anlayış yapısının üç hürriyet anlayış kapsamında şekillenmesi, düşünce ve ifade özgürlüğünü savunması, din ve vicdan özgürlüğünü geliştirmesi ve teşebbüs özgürlüğü ile beraber ekonomik anlayışta insanların girişimcilik çalışmalarına bağlı eğilimlerini savunması, önemli bir yeni-sağ yaklaşım anlayışını kapsamaktadır. Diğer yandan Özal'ın Türkiye'de, yeni-sağ yaklaşımında, Batı'da söz konusu olan anlayışlardan farklı şekillerde değerlendirilmesi, çalışmaların farklı süreçleri kapsamasını oluşturmaktadır. Özal'ın anlayışları arasında en önemli etmenler arasında, Türkiye'yi diğer ülkeler arasında önemli bir konuma taşıma ve bu durumu sağlayabilmek için de Avrupa Ekonomi Topluluğu gibi yerlerde üyeliklerini gerçekleştirmeye yönelik çalışmaları önem taşımaktadır. Bu kapsamda araştırma çerçevesinde Turgut Özal'ın liberalizm ve muhafazakârlık anlayışlarının değerlendirilmesi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Bu doğrultuda devamlılık kazanan siyasal hayatı, çeşitli süreçlerden etkilenme göstermiştir. Araştırma kapsamında gerçekleştirilen literatür taraması ile beraber, dış politikalara bağlı işlevsellik anlayışı, gelişme gösteren süreçlere bağlı olarak devamlılık kazanmıştır. Aynı zamanda Türkiye'de etkinliği artırma, Türkiye'nin gelişmesini sağlama ve bu durumu da öncelikli olarak demokratikleşme eğilimli çalışmalar ile gerçekleştirme süreci önemli bir pozisyon şeklinde değerlendirilmiştir. Özal'ın bu yönde çalışmalara eğilim göstermesi, yeni-sağ yaklaşımının bir ürünü şeklinde ifade edilebilmektedir. ; The developments towards the concept of modernization, which began in the 17th century, continued with the 18th and 19th centuries. Developments in the world in general have also affected the Ottoman Empire, and in particular the army has developed studies that tend to reflect the strength of the West. In the Ottoman Empire this situation was evaluated effectively together with the Tanzimat Period and reflected an effective mechanism in the next period. In Turkey, the development of efforts to modernize with the establishment of the Republic, has been primarily covers developments over the people under the name of modernization. Among the factors that are evident in this case are the removal of the people from the tradition and, in particular, the inclination to distance themselves from religion. Among the elements that are not endorsed by the public and which are encountered with reaction, the situation of the elimination of the phenomenon of conservatism carries a serious problem. Elements for thought among conservative sectors showing improvement with insights gained an important position in Turkey Özal period. Without developing this understanding, Özal was among the studies that examined and developed the phenomenon of liberalism and conservatism at a significant level. It can be stated that when the reflectors of liberalism and conservatism are evaluated together with Özal's new-right approach, these understandings are effective in showing the political life structure. At the same time, when the development of the expressed understandings is provided, the policy of aiming at economic development on the economic basis and the policy of external relations are important. Within the understanding of Özal, the concept of democratic understanding includes three important concepts of freedom and freedom of thought, freedom of thought and expression, freedom of religion and freedom of conscience, and defense of trends in entrepreneurship in economic understanding. On the other hand Özal in Turkey, in the new-right approach, evaluating different ways of understanding that are involved in the West, is the coverage of the different processes work. Among the most important factors in understanding Ozal, Turkey is in a prime position to provide transport and the situation in other countries is also important to work towards the realization of membership in places such as the European Economic Community. In this context, the evaluation of Turgut Özal's understanding of liberalism and conservatism was carried out within the framework of the research. The political life that has been continuing in this direction has been affected by various processes. Along with the literature review carried out within the scope of the research, understanding of functionality linked to foreign politics has gained continuity depending on the developing processes. At the same time raising activities in Turkey, Turkey's development and ensure that this situation also inclined to work primarily in the process of achieving democratization is rated important position. Ozal's tendency to work in this direction can be expressed as a product of a new-right approach.

The aim of the research is to bibliometrically analyze 1419 publications published in the field of information literacy in the field of education between 1989 and 2022 and indexed in the Web of Science (WoS) database. The data of the research was reached on 01.02.2022 and 7,210 scientific publications were found as a result of the search. According to the scope of the research, a limitation was made in the category of "educational / educational research". As a result of these processes, bibliometric data of 1419 studies were accessed and the data were recorded. Percentage and frequency values of the obtained data were calculated and presented in tables and graphics. At the same time, the data of the studies were visualized by making bibliometric network maps using the VOSviewer package program. According to the results of the research, the highest number of publications in the education category related to information literacy in WoS were made in the articles, papers and book chapters, respectively, in 2018, the most common publication language was English, then Spanish, and the most academic publications were USA. It was later found that it was made in China. Purdue University and the Purdue University System are top-publishing authors affiliated. In Turkey, Hacettepe University is the institution where the authors who publish the most on information literacy work. After 2007, the citations increased every year compared to the previous year, and the most citations were made in 2021. In the educational research category, "information literacy, media literacy, teaching strategies, digital" are the most frequently used keywords in studies on information literacy. The study was conducted in the WoS database, and it can be recommended to compare the bibliometric analyzes in the Scopus, EBSCO and PROQUEST databases to researchers who can work on information literacy. stract:

The Science of Wealth was written by Münif Pasha, who features large in our history of science and philosophy. The work was used as a textbook by the Ottoman Law School, and took its place among the texts that carried modern economic knowledge to the Ottoman world of thought. The period that started in the second half of the 19th century and continued up until the foundation of the Republic was a time of remarkable contributions to economic literature. The fact that The Science of Wealth remains an important part of this body of literature and reflects the economic knowledge of period in its discussions served as the basis for In The Science of Wealth, Münif Pasha defends the idea of a liberal economy, although his criticisms of some of the views of Adam Smith and Malthus differentiate his work from other books in the economics field at the time. Issues, such as private property, the division of labour, freedom of industry and trade, fixed pricing, customs and interest, all of which are highly important in the creation of a liberal transformation to an economic, political, administrative, legal, religious and social structure, are among the headings in the Science of Wealth. The original, translated and simplified texts allow the work to reach a broader audience. It is hoped that the study will increase the level of interest in our economics and science history literature

Energy has been the most contested meta since the mid-19th century. Since energy was utilized for light and heating at first and later for industrial production it has become one of the indispensable element of social and economic life. In line with the industrial and technological development, increasing energy need and consumption have become one of the indicators of power in economic, political and social areas since having political power depends on a strong economy. Also, energy is a fundamental factor in contemporary economy. Therefore, states struggle to have necessary energy resources, keep energy routes under control and access to energy easy and cheaply. Since the states do not have an equal position in energy reserves, there occurs a struggle to possess and access to energy resources. On the other hand, it has to be noted that possession of energy resources does not mean that that state has economic and political power. Since energy is an area of contesting global powers, it may lead to political, economic and social instability. It is possible to test the above statement by looking at the present and potential conflict areas in the world. Energy creates political as well as economic dependency between energy supplying and consuming countries. In order to mitigate the effects of this dependency, regional and global cooperation occurs. On the other hand, energy becoming a political tool with high economic and political cost has led states, both suppliers and consumers, to alternative energy resources. Thus, it is possible to explain why states with high levels of income from energy resources started to invest in other areas that can create income, such as tourism. Another issue is the legal and environmental problems occurring during the extraction and transportation of energy resources. Environment and environmental problems are top in the agenda of the world since the end of 21st century. Huge environmental contaminations on land and sea occurring during production and transportation of fossil fuel demonstrates the importance of the issue. In the light of all these issues, 1. International Eurasia Energy Problems Symposium has been held in 28-30 May 2015 at İzmir Katip Çelebi University by the Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences in order to host as an academic platform for up-to-date ideas and opinions. During the symposium, experts on the area found opportunity to express their opinions in areas of energy supply and security, alternative energy resources, legal and environmental problems, regional political and economic conflicts and contesting global powers. Definitely, hosting an international symposium is hard work. However, consecutive success makes hard work a pleasure and proud for organizers and supporters. There is no doubt that organizing conferences, meetings and symposiums necessitates team work. On the other hand, individuals and institutions who chair these teams and give support financially and morally have to be mentioned. Therefore, we thank to the rector of İzmir Katip Çelebi University, Prof. Dr. Galip AKHAN, who encouraged the symposium. Also, we thank to the dean of the Faculty of Economic and Administrative Sciences, Prof. Dr. İbrahim Attila ACAR, who cultivated fast and practical solutions to problems occurred during the organization and demonstrated patience, harmony and understanding; and to the president of the organization board Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nesrin DEMİR from the Department of International Relations, who has a ii significant share in the success of the symposium with her never-ending energy and enthusiasm. In the symposium held in 28-30 May, the participants, who sent the full texts of their work, bear the legal and academic responsibilities. During the editing process, meaning and content of their work have been kept.
