    Türk Edebiyatı’nda hapishane temini daha ziyade siyasi sebeplerden dolayı kısa ya da uzun süreli hapis cezasına çarptırılmış yazarların işledikleri görülmektedir. Orhan Kemal, Kemal Tahir, Kerim Korcan, Çetin Altan, Nihal Atsız, Erdal Öz, Rıfat Ilgaz, Abdülkadir Billurcu, Remzi Çayır, Sevgi Soysal, Feride Çiçekoğlu hayatlarının bir döneminde yaşamak zorunda kaldıkları bu mekândaki gözlem ve tecrübelerini edebî esere taşımış yazarlarımızdan bazılarıdır. Hapishane temini roman türünde işleyen yazarlarımızdan Füruzan ve Canan Tan ise yargı süreci sırasında veya yargı kararıyla bu mekânı tanımış yazarlardan değildirler. Füruzan 47’liler adlı romanında yaşamadığı bu mekânda yaşayan kadınları anlatır. Ancak diğer yazarlar gibi cezaevini irdelemek yerine 12 Mart döneminde kadının cezaevi ile bağlantısı üzerinde durur. Günümüzün çok okunan yazarlarından araştırmamıza konu olan Kelepçe romanının yazarı Canan Tan ise mahkûm sıfatıyla değil sadece gözlemlemek ve eserine malzeme toplamak amacıyla cezaevinde bulunmuştur. Bu çalışmada Canan Tan’ın 2016 yılının nisan ayında yayımladığı ve kadın mahkûmların cezaevi hayatlarından bir kesit sunarken onların toplum nezdinde suçlu damgası yemelerine sebep olan süreçten de söz eden Kelepçe adlı romanı değerlendirilecek, suçu oluşturan psikolojik ve sosyolojik sebeplerin esere nasıl yansıdığı üzerinde durulacaktır.It can be seen that prison theme is mostly used by the authors who are sentenced to short or long term punishments for political reasons in Turkish literature. Orhan Kemal, Kemal Tahir, Kerim Korcan, Çetin Altan, Nihal Atsız, Erdal Öz, Rıfat Ilgaz, Abdülkadir Billurcu, Remzi Çayır, Sevgi Soysal, Feride Çiçekoğlu are some examples of the Turkish authors who carried their experiences in this harsh environment to their literary works. Füruzan and Canan Tan differ from other writers who used prison theme in their novels by not knowing this place by a consequence of legal punishment. In her novel 47’liler, Füruzan tells the story of the women who lives in this place which she herself did not live. Yet, she scrutinizes the relationship between woman and prison in 12 Mart era instead of focusing to prison. One of the bestselling writers of our time and the author of novel Kelepçe which is subject of our study, Canan Tan, set foot in prison not as a prisoner but as an observer with the purpose of gathering material for her novel. In this paper, the novel Kelepçe, which is written by Canan Tan and published in April 2016, will be reviewed and its portrayal of psychological – sociological background of crime will be examined. Kelepçe presents a view to the life of the women inmates, and also narrates the process which ends up with stigmatizing of them in public opinion

    Edebî eserler, muhtevalarına göre bireysel veya toplumsal birçok sorunun geniş kitlelere ulaşmasını sağlayabilir. Bir romanda, şiirde ya da denemede ele alınan husus, okurda farkındalık oluşturarak ön yargıları ve mevcut algıları değiştirebilir. Aynı şekilde okurun, daha önce fikir sahibi olmadığı bir hususta ön bilgi edinmesine yardımcı olabilir. Bireysel konulardan ziyade toplumsal sorunlara değinen edebî eserler, aynı zamanda birer sosyolojik belge niteliğindedir. Eserlere konu olan meseleler, toplumun önemli bir kesimini doğrudan ya da dolaylı olarak etkileyebilir. Sahip olduğu geniş anlatım imkânıyla romanlar, bu bağlamda hem Türk edebiyatında hem de dünya edebiyatında çocuk haklarından sürgünlere kadar birçok konuyu ele almıştır. 2000’li yıllarda ve sonrasında yayımladığı romanlarla Canan Tan, süregelen bazı sosyal sorunları gündemine alır. Yazarın deneyim ve gözlemlerinden de istifade ederek kaleme aldığı romanlarda çeşitli konular işlenir. Bunlardan Piraye ile Pembe ve Yusuf, töre unsurlarının yoğun bir şekilde ele alındığı romanlar olarak dikkatleri çeker. Bu çalışmada, Canan Tan’ın Piraye ile Pembe ve Yusuf romanlarında törelerin ne şekilde uygulandığı ve bu uygulamalarda etkin olan kişilerin hangi kaygıları taşıdığı incelenmiştir. Daha çok olumsuz örnekler üzerinde durulmuş ve bazı törelerin insanları nasıl mağdur ettiği, metinlerden hareketle izah edilmeye çalışılmıştır.Literary works, depending on the content of individual or social issues can reach a wider audience. In a novel, poetry or essay, the matter in hand can change the prejudices and existing perceptions by creating awareness in the reader. In the same way, it can help the reader to obtain prior knowledge in a subject that he/she has no idea about before. The literary works referring to social problems rather than individual issues are also a sociological document. Issues that are subject to works can either directly or indirectly affect a significant part of society. In this context, novels with broad expression have covered many issues ranging from children's rights to exile in both Turkish literature and world literature. Canan Tan, with her novels published in the 2000s and after, puts some ongoing social problems on her agenda. Various issues are addressed in the novels written by the author, employing her own experiences and observations. Piraye and Pembe and Yusuf draw attention as the novels in which elements of morals were intensely discussed. In this study, it is examined how the ceremonies were performed in Canan Tan's Piraye and Pembe and Yusuf novels and the concerns of the people who are effective in these practices. Negative examples are emphasized more and how some of these morals caused the people to suffer is explained by means of the texts

    Determination of the Objective Reason Condition in the Conclusion and Renewal of Fixed Term Employment Contracts

    No full text
    An employment contract may be executed for a fixed or indefinite term. An indefinite-term employment contract is the rule of thumb, whereas a fixed-term contract is an exception. According to Article 11 of the Employment Code No 4857, a fixed-term contract may be signed when it is based on an objective reason, such as fixed-term work, the completion of a certain job, or the emergence of a relevant fact. There is no similar provision in other employment codes, which is why concluding a fixed-term employment contract with a worker covered by the Employment Code is more difficult than terminating workers excluded from the said code. This strict structure to conclude a fixed-term employment contract of the Employment Code has been criticized by the doctrine. According to Article 11, paragraphs 2 and 3, of the Employment Code and Article 430 of the Obligation Code No. 6098, to renew a fixed-term employment contract with all workers, an objective reason is required. This article explains what objective reason means and if such a condition is suitable and evaluates the debates in the doctrine and legal studies regarding the objective reason condition in the conclusion of fixed-term employment contracts, regulated in Article 11 of the Employment Code. Further, the author discusses whether an exception should be introduced into the objective cause condition. This article next examines the objective reason condition for the renewal of fixed-term employment contracts. In this framework, in addition to the objective reason condition, the application of a time limit and a number limit will be evaluated to prevent abuse in the renewal of employment contracts by using successive fixed-term employment agreements

    No full text
    Monocephalus diprosopus is a form of conjoined twinning characterized by a single body, one unusual head and two faces or a spectrum of duplication of the craniofacial structures. Such cases have been mainly described according to postmortem pathologic examination. This presented case is a 26-week-stillborn female fetus, with unusual facial appearance with four eyes, two mouths, two noses, two ears and a defective cranial vault. To our knowledge, a detailed computerized tomography (CT) examination of the aberrant facial and cranial bones of such a case has not been reported to date. In this reported case, we present an anencephalic monocephalus diprosopus "headed twin", and describe the CT findings with emphasis on the cranial bones

    “We are much closer here”: exploring the use of WhatsApp as a learning environment in a secondary school mathematics class

    No full text
    In this study, we examined a mathematics teacher’s communicative acts on an instant messaging tool, WhatsApp, and its role in creating a sustained learning environment between secondary-school students and a teacher in Turkey. The interactions of a mathematics teacher and his students (n = 38) over two years were explored. The WhatsApp group increased interaction in out-of-school hours. Analysis of the teacher’s communicative acts was the leading force that encouraged the group to continue to interact. The teacher portrayed an informal and sincere presentation of himself on social media. A constructive communication style between teacher and students was fostered by connecting through WhatsApp in out-of-school hours, when the teacher’s informal communicative acts have facilitated their learning. © 2021, The Author(s), under exclusive licence to Springer Nature B.V

    Devletkuşu, Canan (Dogus Author)In emerging markets, the amount of mobile communication and the number of occasions mobile phones are used are increasing. More and more settings appropriate or not for mobile phone usage are being exposed. Although prohibited by many governments, there is evidence that use of new mobile devices while driving are somehow becoming current everyday practice, hence legitimatizing usage for many users. Dominant dangerous behavior in the absence of enforced legal framework is being deployed and has become routine for many m-users. This chapter adopts a qualitative case study approach (20 cases) to examine the public transport drivers' motives, logic and legitimacy processes. The question which these issues raise in the light of advancing m-technologies is: How do, in the context of emerging market, undesired emerging routines enactment get to be reflected upon and voluntarily disregarded to maximize the benefits of m-technologies while minimizing their drawbacks? Findings point out at multiple motives for usage including external social pressure through the ubiquitous 24/7 usage of mtechnology, lack of alternative communication protocol, real time need for action and from an internal perspectives boredoms, lack of danger awareness, blurring of the boundaries between personal and business life and lack of job fulfillment are uncovered as key factors. As secondary dynamic factors such as education, drivers work' histories, impunity, lack of strong consumer opposition appear central in shaping the development of the routines

    The chemical profiles of the cuticle of adult flies are highly influenced by environmental factors and generational variation, although the extent and mechanisms of these influences are still poorly understood. This research rigorously investigates the influence of rearing environment and generational changes on the cuticular hydrocarbon (CHC) profiles of adult flies collected from the natural environment in Swindon (UK), in June 2019. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) was used to analyze the hydrocarbon profiles. Then, chemometric analysis was applied to determine the chemical variation patterns, allowing the samples to be classified according to their chemical fingerprints. Significant differences in hydrocarbon composition were found between laboratory-maintained and field-collected specimens, underscoring the impact of environmental conditions on CHC expression. Additionally, gradual modifications in hydrocarbon content were detected across generations raised in the controlled environment, suggesting the involvement of adaptive physiological or epigenetic mechanisms. These findings contribute valuable insights into cuticle plasticity, highlighting its relevance in forensic entomology, chemical ecology, and insect evolutionary biology. The implications also extend to forensic investigations, where cuticular hydrocarbon profiles (CHCs) demonstrate potential for enhancing postmortem interval (PMI) estimation accuracy and species identification in criminal cases. By demonstrating quantifiable differences in CHC composition across rearing conditions and generations (AUC values ≥0.92 for all comparisons), this study provides a foundation for the broader application of chemical markers in forensic investigations.First author (Dr. Canan Kula) received sponsorship from the Ministry of National Education of the Republic of Türkiye.Turkish Journal of Entomolog
