Creative Industries, Communication Studies and Higher Education Ecosystem: Rethinking Communication Studies Within the Case of Creative Industries
No full textThis study has aimed to open a discussion on the mutual interactions between creative industries and the higher education ecosystem. It should be noted that while creative industries are seen as the new welfare and employment source of countries within the dynamics of cognitive capitalism conditions, it poses an important question to the higher education ecosystem, exactly how intellectual capital is needed in the transformation of knowledge societies can be developed. Nevertheless, these industries' have not gained prominence in the higher education ecosystem, but for their economic functions, at least, in the case of Turkey's higher education. However, the fact that not having found a place with a holistic and consistent higher education ecosystem as the creative industries, at least in Turkey, apart from the economic functions.

From state-controlled media to video-on-demand platforms: Rethinking global cultural flows and television viewers’ changing habits in the case of Turkey
No full textThis study aims to open a discussion on the changing face of cultural imperial-ism within the context of contemporary capitalism's conditions and the changing habits of Turkish television viewers. Although the past two decades have witnessed a growing interest in both the changing patterns of television viewing habits and viewers' class status, this process has focused almost exclusively on the West and specifically Euro-American metropolitan viewers' experiences. By contrast, very few studies have directly addressed other contexts, specifically, television view-ers in non-western countries. Based on cultural proximity and cultural discount theories, this study analyses the reasons and outcomes behind Turkish televi-sion viewers' ongoing tendency towards the video-on-demand platforms, such as Netflix, HBO, Hulu, Amazon Prime Video or their domestic counterparts, like Puhu or Blu TV, under Turkey's ongoing modernization process. The results suggest that video-on-demand platforms provide particular interest for televi-sion viewers while offering relative freedom from state-controlled public media or strictly regulated private channels. Nevertheless, these platforms have appealed to both Turkish upper-middle-class viewers and younger viewers who have the cultural background to enjoy and appreciate the content on offer. This study also indicates how access to streaming platforms in Turkey mainly relies on the class status of television viewers, and that this kind of cultural flow, to some extent, creates a digital divide in Turkey

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
