Johanna Pink, who is mainly interested in modern Qur'anic exegesis and translations, attempts to draw a panorama of the different interpretations of the Qur'ān between 2000 and 2016 in her book Muslim Qur'ānic Interpretation: Media, Genealogies and Interpretive Communities. She seeks to provide an outline of different interpretations from many regions of the Muslim world, extending from Indonesia to Egypt, from the United States to Iran, and from Turkey to Saudi Arabia. At first, Pink discusses the increasingly central position and function of Qur'anic exegesis in the contemporary period. The author underlines that exegesis had a more modest place in the hierarchy of classical religious sciences and manages to examine its positioning in the classical period with much clarity. In the second chapter, Pink emphasizes that the context-oriented approach of classical tafsir has undergone a text-centered transformation in line with that of Ibn Taymiyya's approach. Thereafter, the author discusses the impact of this transformation in the contemporary Arab world, especially through various abridgments and editions of Ibn Kathīr's tafsīr.

Önder, Hatice Burcu (Arel Author) ; For centuries, countries have always communicated with each other, such as wars, political and economic power struggles, outbreaks, migrations, border changes, technical developments. This communication is sometimes caused by reasons such as political or economic power struggles. Today, countries have to deal with the developments, trade, social, cultural exchanges that are happening within the borders of each other. It is necessary for one country to have a good place in the international arena. Counties need to gain a positive place in international communication. Providing a positive perception in the international arena will feed countries in commercial, economic and political sense. Positive perception will lead to greater investment in the country, increased cooperation and ultimately achieving country interests at the final point.

In the present article author examines the problem of development of University student's socio-cultural competence by reading English fictional literature. The place of literature in intercultural communication in the teaching of foreign languages: that it is a source of information about nature, built on the basis of social and cultural realities, and through it they can know alternative cultural norms and at the same time compare their beliefs and attitudes. In addition, it is also source of developing the cognitive and emotional knowledge of students and through it they can find an easy solution to all the complexities of life. All analyzes was made on the example of fictions by E.Hemingway, Ch.Dickens, S.Mougham, F. Scott Fitzgerald, O.Henry, M.Twain, J.London, T.Morrison, P.John Dos and the approach to using historical facts in developing socio-cultural competence is revealed being supplemented with a number of pre-reading and post-reading activities suggested to students learning English as a second foreign language.

Aviva Butt has just finished translating in collaboration with the author, Salim Barakat's first novel Fuqahā' al-Ẓalām (Sages of Darkness) written in 1985. The translation was done from a later original Arabic manuscript roughly the same as the 1994 Baghdadi edition. Sages of Darkness is a Kurdish Sufi novel depicting Kurdish life in late Ottoman times. It is, in fact, a philosophical novel with a strong dose of psychological realism, written in a style derived from Classical Modernism. And so, it is mainstream literature, an achievement in view of the late start in novel-writing by the Kurdish far-flung writers' community. The action line, full of suspense, violence, and murder, is greatly about the tribal notable "Avdei Sarei," who does everything he can to ensure the survival of his business and the economic health of his endeavors. In this article, the translator of Sages of Darkness analyzes Barakat's novelistic techniques for the purpose of prompting a better understanding of the novel, and by-the-by, if possible, to solve the enigma of the meaning of the title.

Bu bağlamda çalışmada İran'da yapılmış alanaraştırmasının verileri ile İran'ın uluslararası ticaretteki verilerikullanılmıştır. Çalışmanın temel hipotezi İran'ın iç ekonomide Rejimi koruyupkollayıcı tedbirleri öteki halklara rağmen aldığı, uluslararası ilişkilerde isereel politik endişelerle hareket ettiği varsayımı üzerine şekillenmiştir. Eldeedilen bulgular sonucunda günümüz İran ekopolitik resmi gözler önüne serilmeyeçalışılmış ve Avrasya coğrafyasındaki hem cari hem de muhtemel çatışmalarınönlenebilmesi için –Türkiye için de önemli olan– öneriler yordanmıştır. ; The aim of this study is to examine the impact andpossible results on the current conflicts particularly in the Middle East andEurasia of the current eco-political system of the Islamic Republic ofIran In this context, the data of thisstudy carried out by the author in Iran and the data of Iran in theinternational trade has been used in this study. The main hypothesis of thestudy is shaped by the fact that Iran has taken the protective measures for theregime in the internal economics despite the other people in Iran, at the sametime Iran have acted with real political concerns in the internationalrelations.

Accession to the European Union (EU) has been one of the most crucial topics of the Turkish foreign policy. This topic, albeit sometimes not having a priority, always remained as a current issue and played a determinant role in Turkey's objective of Westernization. Within this process, parallel to the success that the accession would bring, it became more ascendant in current politics. It acted as the sword of Damocles as a determinant either for the election victories or as a trouble-maker on the head of the parties. The foundation of the Turkey-EU relations was first laid by the Democrat Party in July 31st, 1959 and these relations began to get deepen by the time the Motherland Party (ANAP) came into power in the 1980's. This study aims to determine the reasons that led Turkey to apply for the EU membership, the place of the relations with the Europen Economic Community (EEC) on Turkish foreign policy and the repercussions of this application in the public opinion. Therefore it is going to be given a general overview on the early years of those relations. In the citations taken from the newspapers of the period the expression common market is used for defining Turkey's counterpart while the author himself rather prefers to use the EEC, the predecessor of the EU.

Demokrasinin bir yönetim biçimi olarak ele alınmasının tarihi oldukça eski olmasına rağmen bu yönetim biçiminin belirli değerler temelinde idealize edilme tarihi nispeten yenidir. Antik Yunan'dan itibaren "kimlerin kimleri kimler çıkarına yönetecekleri" sorunsalı bağlamında ele alınan demokrasi zamanla "genel irade", "halkın egemenliği", "insan hakları", "özgürlükler" vs gibi "yüksek değerlerin" garantörü ve bu değerlerin tahakkuk edebilmelerinin zorunlu dayanağı şeklinde tarif edilmeye başlanmıştır. Schumpeter'in "demokrasinin klasik doktrini" olarak adlandırdığı bu yaklaşım; aksiyolojik bir demokrasi yorumu geliştirmiştir. Demokrasinin aldığı bu yeni yorumlama biçimine yönelik birtakım itirazlar yöneltilmiştir. Bunlar arasında en kayda değer olanlardan biri Avusturyalı iktisatçı ve politik bilimci Josef Alois Schumpeter'dir. Bu tarz bir demokrasi telakkisini ve onun müstenid olduğu insan tasavvurunu kritize eden yazar "demokrasinin klasik doktrini" olarak isimlendirdiği siyasal öğretiye önemli eleştiriler getirmiştir. Yazar öncelikle 18. yüzyılda hatları netleşen söz konusu doktrinin temel bileşenlerini tespit etmeye çalışır. Bu doktrinin yaslandığı temel kavramları ve prensipleri tartışmaya açan düşünür daha sonra bunların taşıdığı içsel çelişkilere odaklanır. Bir çeşit illüzyon olarak gördüğü demokrasinin klasik yorumunu eleştiren Schumpeter teorideki muhteva ile pratikteki sonuçlar arasındaki farklara işaret ederek demokrasinin üzerindeki " mistik örtüyü" kaldırmayı amaçlar. Sonunda aslında demokrasinin gerçekte ne olduğu ile ilgili kişisel kanaatini serdeder. Bu çalışmada Schumpeter'in demokrasinin klasik yorumuna getirdiği eleştiriler kendi yorumlama tarzı üzerinden ele alınmış ve yazarın demokrasi tanımlaması ile çalışma sonlandırılmıştır. ; The history of taking democracy as a form of government is quite old. However, the date of idealization of this form of governance on the basis of certain values is relatively new. Democracy, the matter at hand in the context of the problematic of 'who will govern whom in whoose benefit' has started to be defined in due course as the guarantor of ''high values'' such as; "general will", "popular sovereignty", ''human rights "," liberties'' etc. and the mandatory basis for these values to be accrued. This approach, which Schumpeter calls the 'classical doctrine of democracy' has developed an axiological interpretation of democracy. Some objections have been raised to this new interpretation of democracy. One of the most notable of these is the Austrian economist and political scientist Josef Alois Schumpeter. The author who criticizes consideration of this kind of democracy and conception of humanity based on it, has given considerable criticism to the political doctrine with his own words as 'the classical doctrine of democracy'. The author first attempts to identify the basic components of the mentioned doctrine which became clear in the 18th century.The philosoper who opens up the basic concepts and principles to which this doctrine is based on, then focuses on the internal contradictions that they carry. Schumpeter, who criticizes the classical interpretation of democracy, which he sees as some kind of illusion, aims to remove the 'mystical cover' on democracy by pointing out the differences between the content in theory and the practical results. In the end, he actually propounds his personal opinion about what democracy really is. In this study, Schumpeter's criticisms of the classical interpretation of democracy were handled in terms of his own style of interpretation, and the study was concluded with the author's definition of democracy.

The present study brings to light some of the original novelistic writing techniques that Salim Barakat evolved in his first novel entitled Fuqahā' al-Ẓalām (Sages of Darkness). With this novel, the author laid the foundation for techniques to be used in his subsequent novels. In the absence of an established Middle Eastern or Kurdish tradition of novel writing, Barakat had ample space to develop his own original techniques. He first published Sages of Darkness in 1985 in Nicosia Cyprus, and later published a second edition in Baghdad in 1994—with a further overlay of cinematic imagery and use of his own poetics and vocabulary as in his poems of the intervening period. An anthology of Barakat's poems in the original Arabic can now be read online. And there are also English translations in the Anthology of Aviva Butt's book of 20 September 2021(see the References at the end of this article). A previous article on Sages of Darkness published in IJOKS 7 (1) (2022) attempted to establish the genre of Barakat's novel as psychological realism with philosophical and fantastical elements—the first 50 pages were examined. In this study, I will mention the frequent symbolic relationship of the environment to Kurdish life—as seen in the first approximately 120 pages. A completed English translation of Sages of Darkness, including the remaining 90 pages underway, will hopefully be published by early next year.

This study aims to reveal the current situation of the articles written on violence in health by using the bibliometric analysis method, which has become a common problem of all societies. Although there are many studies on various subjects using the bibliometric analysis method, there is no study conducted using Web of Science (WoS) data on violence in health. The data set of the study consists of 13,130 research articles published between 2017-2021 by scanning in WoS on February 3, 2021, using the themes of violence in health, violence and health, violence in healthcare organizations, and violence in health institutions by including titles, abstracts, and keywords. The data were analyzed using the VOSviewer software (version 1.6.17).
The analysis indicated that the United States is the first with 7226 research articles among 165 countries in 5 years, while Turkey is 24th with 145. According to the number of institution-based studies, Columbia University, which ranks first, published 323 research articles, the studies published in the USA received the highest citations (52,093), and Turkey received 527 citations in 5 years. It was found that the most-cited author was Richard Lowry with 1334 citations. It was found that the most frequently used keywords in studies on violence in health were intimate partner violence, violence, violence in health, violence and health, mental health, and violence and domestic violence. This study also revealed that academic studies on violence in health tend to increase over the years.
