Anti-populist coups d'etat in the twenty-first century: reasons, dynamics and consequences
No full textThere is a burgeoning literature on how to deal with populism in advanced liberal democracies, which puts a strong emphasis on legalist and pluralist methods. There is also a new and expanding literature that looks at the consequences of coups d'etat for democracies by employing large-N data sets. These two recent literatures, however, do not speak to one another, based on the underlying assumption that coups against populists were a distinctly twentieth-century Latin American phenomenon. Yet the cases of Venezuela in 2002, Thailand in 2006 and Turkey in 2016 show that anti-populist coups have also occurred in the twenty-first century. Focussing on these cases, the article enquires about the extent to which military coups succeed against populists. The main finding is that although anti-populist coups may initially take over the government, populism survives in the long run. Thus, anti-populist coups fail in their own terms and they do not succeed in eradicating populism. In fact, in the aftermath of a coup, populism gains further legitimacy against what it calls repressive elites, while possibilities for democratisation are further eroded. This is because populists tap into existing socio-cultural divides and politically mobilise the hitherto underrepresented sectors in their societies that endure military interventions.Bilim Akademisi BAGEP AwardYaprak Gursoy's initial research on populism was supported by the Bilim Akademisi BAGEP Award given to promising Turkish scientists
Adsorption application of activated carbon from ripe black locust seed pods for wastewater taken from Ergene River, Turkey
No full textErgene River contains many chemical substances and therefore, it has negative effects on the surrounding ecosystem and local people. To find a solution to these chemical substances and also to determine the adsorption performance of the activated carbon obtained from ripe black locust seed pods, the adsorption of various elements was studied on this activated carbon in Ergene River water sample. In Ergene River water sample, the adsorption performances of Mn, Cr, Ni, Co, Cd, V, Ti, Na, Mg, K, Ca, S, P, B, Pb, Cu, Zn, Sn, and Al on the activated carbon were studied under various operating conditions.For this aim, operating condition effects, such as adsorbent dosage, adsorption temperature, and contact time on these element adsorptions were investigated. 0.4 g activated carbon was found to be adequate for the above 90% removals of most elements from 50 mL Ergene River sample, and it was noticed that adsorption temperature differently affected adsorption performances of each element in the experiments at 25, 35, and 45 degrees C. Also, the adsorption equilibriums of most elements in activated carbon/Ergene River solution were rapidly reached in first 5 min, but reaching adsorption equilibriums of Co, Sn, Mg, K, and Ca took more times (until 1500 min). Moreover, the desorption study of these elements from the activated carbon adsorbed with chemical substances in Ergene River sample was achieved by using HCl solutions with various concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 M. As a result, the activated carbon obtained from ripe black locust seed pods displayed promising performance for the most elements, bad odour, and colour removals in Ergene River sample.Kirklareli Central LaboratoryAuthors thank to Kirklareli Central Laboratory for providing the supports and research facility to conduct this study.

A comparative analysis of Norwegian and Turkish proverbs
No full textYÖK Tez: 669898Atasözleri halkın ortak inanç ve değer yargılarından hareketle zaman içinde olgunlaşmış ve kalıplaşmış edebi sanatlarla örülmüş özlü sözlerdir. Ait olduğu milletin düşünce ve kültürünü yansıtan söz varlıklarıdır. Kalıplaşarak dildeki en köklü ve sağlam ifadeleri günümüze taşıyan ve geleceğe taşıyacak değerli bir hazinedir. İskandinavlar ve Türkler arasında çok eski zamanlardan bu yana tarihi ve kültürel bağlar olduğu görülmektedir. Zamanında bütün İskandinavya'ya hükmeden İsveç kralı Demirbaş Şarl'ın 1709'da siyasi sığınmacı olarak Türk topraklarına iltica etmesi ve ülkesini beş yıldan uzun süre Türkiye'den yönetmesi ile doruğuna çıkan bu ilişkilerin başlangıcı Avrupa Hunları'nın İskandinavya'ya ulaştıkları dönem esas alınırsa İlk Çağ'a kadar götürülebilir. Öte taraftan, Türkçede İskandinav dilleri ve özellikle de Norveççe hakkındaki çalışmalar maalesef nicelik ve nitelik açısından yeterli konumda değildir. Gayet köklü bir geçmişe sahip İskandinav dilleri, Türk dil araştırmacıları için yeni bir araştırma alanıdır. Bu çalışmanın, sahada yeni dil çalışmalarına vesile olabileceği umulmaktadır. Çalışmada öncelikle Norveç atasözleri dilimize tercüme edilmiş, sonra mezkûr atasözleri kavram özellikleri bakımından incelenmiştir. Nihayetinde Norveç atasözlerinin Türkçe eşdeğerleri tespit edilip dilbilimsel açıdan karşılaştırmalı olarak bir tahlil sunulmaya çalışılmıştır.Proverbs are concise expressions that have evolved over time and have been completed with rhetorical purity and simplicity. They are based on the common beliefs and universal values. They are rhetorical entities that reflect the thought and culture of the nation to which they belong to. They are valuable treasures that carry the most rooted and solid expressions in the language to the present and will carry them to the future. In retrospect, it is seen that there have been historical and cultural ties between Scandinavians and Turks since ancient times. These ties reached climax when Charles XII of Sweden sought for political asylum in Turkish territory in 1709 and governed his country from Turkey for more than five-year time period. The start of the these relations, on the other hand, if the European Huns' entrance to Scandinavia will be regarded as the start, can be taken back to the Ancient Age, but unfortunately, studies on Scandinavian languages, and especially on Norwegian, in Turkish are not sufficient in terms of quantity and quality. Scandinavian languages, which have a very long history, are a new field of research for Turkish linguists. It is hoped that this study will lead new language studies in the field. In the study, firstly, Norwegian proverbs were translated into our language and then the proverbs mentioned were examined in terms of their conceptual features. Ultimately, the Turkish equivalents of Norwegian proverbs were determined and an attempt was made to present a comparative analysis
The Effect of Nurse Telephone Consultation After Coronary Artery Bypass on the Autonomy Level of Elderly Patients: A Quasi-Experimental Study
No full textObjective: The effect of nurse telephone consultations was determined on the autonomy levels of elderly patients after coronary artery bypass surgery in this quasi-experimental study. Methods: This study was conducted as a quasi-experimental research investigation from December 25, 2015, to January 10, 2017, at the cardiovascular surgery clinic of a university hospital and included 64 patients (32 cases, 32 control group patients). The data were collected using the patient descriptive form, The Functional Autonomy Measurement System, Discharge Information Guide, and The Telephone Consultation Follow-Up Form. The patients in the case group were provided with nurse telephone consultations six weeks after discharge. The Functional Autonomy Measurement System was re-administered to all patients at the end of six weeks. The necessary ethical and institutional approvals were obtained before the study. Results: The mean age of the patients was 69.96 (+/- 4.94) years, 76.56% (n=49) were males, 85.9% (n=55) were married, and 73.43% (n=47) were primary school graduates. The mean autonomy score (-4.04 +/- 2.52) and the autonomy level of daily life activities of the patients (-2.20 +/- 1.71) in the case group (p=0.000) were significantly higher at the end of six weeks (p<0.05). Conclusion: Nurse telephone consultations increased the autonomy level of elderly patients undergoing coronary artery bypass surgery
Energy efficiency analyses in a Turkish fabric dyeing factory
No full textIn this study, energy efficiency applications and corresponding energy saving results were evaluated in a Turkish fabric dyeing factory. The relationship between energy consumption and the production were evaluated by regression analysis. They were detailed with energy intensity index (EII), cumulative sum values (CUSUM), specific energy consumption (SEC), and radar chart. The energy efficiency efforts should be initiated from heat and electrical energy, which are the main energy types extensively used in the textile industry. Average energy consumption value of the last four years (2015-2018), which is 7134 TOE is reduced 49% including waste heat, flash steam and cooling water recovery, and insulation in dyeing machines, in the factory due to the implementation of the energy saving actions. Accordingly, a reduction of 25% SEC value is possible. Moreover, production planning has a significant impact on the total energy consumption in terms of full load capacity operation of the dyeing machines, which may cause 23% energy saving that is of great importance.Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Ministry (ETKB)This paper is based on the Master of Science thesis of Behcet Guven entitled Application example of energy efficiency in textile industry finishing sector. Additionally, some data obtained by the Energy Efficiency Improvement in Industry project, which is supported by the Turkish Energy and Natural Resources Ministry (ETKB) were evaluated. We are thankful to Ozen Textiles, Dyeing and Finishing Enterprises Inc. for the cooperation. The early outputs of this study were published in the IEEE Xplore Digital Library with a paper entitled Energy efficiency implementation in a fabric finishing factory in Turkey
Control, synchronization with linear quadratic regulator method and FFANN-based PRNG application on FPGA of a novel chaotic system
No full textIn this work, LQR method is proposed for controlling and synchronizing newly developed chaotic system. The developed 4-D chaotic system has been investigated via time series, phase portraits and bifurcation diagrams. Calculation of the gain of linear control has been designed by LQR method, which is an optimal control method. For understanding active controller's impact on global asymptotic stability of synchronization and control errors, the Lyapunov function has been used. Numerical analyses have demonstrated to reveal the effectiveness of the applied active control method and the results have been discussed. Besides, the new chaotic system has been modeled utilizing FFANN architecture. As a result, the output response of FFANN converges to the real output response of 4-D new chaotic system obtained using Dormand-Prince numerical algorithm. The obtained good results make the hardware design in efficient manner. It has been performed using the network parameters from FFANN structure on FPGA in VHDL. The performed design can be used with high clock frequencies up to 166.3 MHz. In addition, PRNG has been implemented and synthesized using FFANN-based chaotic oscillator for Xilinx Virtex-6 FPGA chip. The output rate of the designed FFANN-based PRNG is 166.3 Mbps
A semantic account of partial reduplication in Turkish
No full textThis study analyzes the factors governing the scope of partial reduplication in Turkish, with particular emphasis on why certain forms are unattested. We propose that whether a given adjective participates in partial reduplication can be determined based on its semantic class: scalar adjectives can, non-scalars cannot. We further demonstrate that, among scalar adjectives, partial reduplication is also sensitive to maximal/non-maximal contrast; the former yields completely semantics while the latter yields very semantics. The model we propose captures both the class of adjectives that can undergo partial reduplication as well as the resulting interpretation when they do so. As such, our proposal contrasts with earlier ones in providing principled reasons for the class of partially reduplicated adjectives

Complementary of the social security system: the individual pension system
No full textYÖK Tez: 697309Bu çalışmanın konusunu bireylerin hayatlarında karşılaşabilecekleri risklere karşı sosyal güvenliğin sağlanmasında mevcut sosyal güvenlik sistemlerinin yanında uygulanan, gönüllülük esasına dayanan ve tamamlayıcı bir yapıya sahip olan bireysel emeklilik sistemleri oluşturmaktadır. Sosyal güvenliğin finansmanında karşılaşılan sorunlara çözüm olarak ve mevcut sosyal güvenlik sistemlerine ek olarak bireysel emeklilik sistemleri önerilmektedir. Bireysel emeklilik sistemi sayesinde bireyler bugünkü harcamalarından vazgeçerek emeklilik dönemlerinde ek gelir elde etme imkanına sahip olmakta ve katılımcılardan elde edilen birikimler ile sosyal güvenliğin finansmanı kolaylaştırılmaktadır. Bu çalışma ile bireysel emeklilik sistemine katılan bireylerin bugünkü harcamalarından vazgeçmelerinin sonucu olarak gelecekte elde edecekleri gelirler ile bireysel emeklilik sisteminin, sosyal güvenliğin tamamlayıcılığı rolünün yerine getirilip getirilmediğinin anlaşılması amaçlanmaktadır.The subject of this study is to analyze private pension system, which is implemented on the basis of volunteering and complementing the existing social security systems in providing social security against the risks that individuals may encounter in their lives. Private pension systems are recommended as a solution to the problems encountered in financing social security and in addition to the existing social security systems. Thanks to the private pension systems, individuals have the opportunity to earn additional income during their retirement period, and the financing of social security is facillitated by the individuals current savings. This study aims to understand the role of the individual pension system and the complementarity of Social Security with the income that individuals participating in the individual pension system will receive in the future as a result of their abandonment of their current expenses
Evaluation of The Relationship Between User Labor and Capital Accu?mulation in Digital Networks
No full textKapitalist gelişmenin ön koşulu olarak kabul edilen sermaye birikimi, teknolojik gelişmelere paralel biçimde yeniden şekillenmektedir. Bu yeniden şekillenme, sermaye birikiminin temelinde olan emek sömürüsüne yeni bir boyut kazandırarak, derinleştirmekte ve daha görünmez hale getirmektedir. Son yıllarda bilgi ve iletişim teknolojilerindeki dönüşüm, sermayenin kendisini yeniden üretmesine ve yeni birikim yolları bulmasına yol açmıştır. Sosyal medya platformlarının hızla popülerleşmesi, dijital medya araçlarını kullanan kişi sayısının ve dijital ağlarda geçirilen zamanın artması, sermaye birikiminde önemli bir rol oynamaktadır. Bu bağlamda, kullanıcılar dijital içerik üreterek veya diğer kullanıcıların ürettiği içeriklerle etkileşime geçerek, dijital kültürün bir parçasına haline dönüşerek önemli bir değer yaratmaktadır. Kullanıcıların yarattığı bu değer, farklı biçimlerde medya şirketleri tarafından metalaştırılmakta ve sermaye birikimi için kullanılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın temel amacı, kullanıcıların yarattıkları değer ile sermaye birikimi arasındaki ilişkinin incelenmesidir. Bu amaç çerçevesinde, dijital ağ kullanıcılarının yarattıkları değerler kapsamında, kullanıcı emeği kavramı, kullanıcı emeğinin biçimleri ve sömürüsü ele alınacak olup, kullanıcı emeği ile sermaye birikimi arasındaki ilişki, Facebook örneği ile somutlaştırılacaktır.Capital accumulation, which is accepted as the precondition of capitalist de?velopment, is being reshaped in parallel with technological developments. This reshaping does not reduce the exploitation of labor, which is the basis of capital accumulation, on the contrary, it adds a new dimension to exploitation, makes it widespread, and makes it more invisible. The transformation in computer and communication technologies in recent years has helped capital reproduce itself and find new ways of accumulation. Especially, the rapid popularity of social media platforms has caused a serious increase in the number of people using digital media tools and the time spent in digital networks. In this context, users are a part of digital culture and create significant value by producing digital content or interacting with content produced by other users. This value created by users is commodified in many different ways by media companies and used as a tool for capital accumulation. The main purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between the value created by users and capital accumulation. For this purpose, within the scope of the value created by digital network users in the study; The concept of user labor, the forms, and exploitation of user labor will be discussed, and the relationship between user labor and capital accumu?lation will be concretized with the Facebook example
