Recreation is, as a definition, expressed as activities that people make with their own will in their free time in order to restore old weariness of soul and body health. In this study, the protected areas in the provinces of Artvin, Giresun, Gümüşhane, Rize and Trabzon in Eastern Black Sea Region were selected as material. It is aimed to determine and compare visitor numbers between 2010-2017 in these areas. The visitor numbers of provinces were compared using one way ANOVA. As of 2018, there are 3 protected areas in Artvin, 5 in Gümüşhane, 8 in Trabzon, 6 in Rize and 4 in Giresun as recreational use. Total protected areas within the boundaries of the regional directorate are 450,411 in 2010, 555,678 in 2011, 973,391 in 2012, 1,936,608 in 2013, 1,601,913 in 2014, 1,458,617 in 2015, 1,558,290 in 2016, and finally 1,911,429 in 2017 people visited the site. As a result, visitor numbers have increased in 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013 and there has been no decrease in 2014 and 2015. In 2016 and 2017, the number of visitors has increased again.

    Günay, Hamdi Furkan; Altun, Nurullah

    The globalization process has created a number of problems that countries cannot produce solutions alone. Global financial instability, environmental pollution, global warming and poverty are some of these problems. The idea of taxation at the global level is one of the issues that come to the fore to solve problems. Thus taxes at the global level are expected to serve as a good policy tool as well as being an important source of funding.

    The Impact Of The June War İn 1967 Upon Nizar Qubbani's Poetry

    الأحمد, محمد

    The Syrian poet, Nizar Qubbani, is regarded one of the most magnificent Arab poets of modern age. He became famous for his poems to have written about women. Although his fame is based on his poems about Women, we see that he is not far from the problems of his country. He also listened to the voice of his people with his poems, which he wrote by focusing on the problems of his turbulent period. He also showed his creativity by focusing on these issues. He has masterfully processed the tragedies that are not in-terrupted, the problems brought about by the modern times and the effects that these problems have on him, and showed the people how to overcome these tragedies, how to overcome these tragedies strictly, without neglec-ting the task, and avoiding unnecessary and insignificant works and discus-sions, presented and guided his people with his works. After the defeat of the Arabs in Israel in the war of June 1967, the acquisition of Sinai, Golan and the West Bank and the lands taken from the Arabs had a great impact on Nizar Kabbanî's poetry. Because these events left a painful feeling in the poet and this defeat made it one of the most important issues that the poet dealt with. The poet reflected the tension he lived in and the sense of defeat caused by the war in his poetry. The aim of this study is to introduce the poet in a short summary and to present the most important topics discussed in his poems related to the June 1967 War. These topics include: the results of the June War, the causes of the defeats of the Arabs, and ways to over-come them, and then examine the technical structure of the poem and emphasize the artistic tools the poet built. So: Poetry-Quran is to emphasize the emergence of nesting, symbolization, repetition, and then the emergen-ce of new word capacity in the poetic dictionary

    Transformational Impact of the Developments In Information Technologies on Constitutional Functions

    Dülger, Duygu Şimşek

    Among all technological breakthroughs that the history has seen, the digital revolution is the one that has led to the largest social and cultural alternation and maintained a constantly accelerating self-renewal. Political power as a component of sovereignty also fails to ignore this holistic shift in human life and paradigm. It is expected and already observed that the contribution made by the digital revolution to political communication and political participation is soon to have an impact on the persons and institutions practicing the constitutional functions as well. At the same time, citizens, as they observe the new technological opportunities that may affect collective decision-making processes, assume that they can become more active participants and often believe that they can dominate public decisions. This paper aims to examine the structural and functional transformation of the legislative and executive bodies along with the developments in information technologies. At the same time, it will be explained how information technologies support citizens’ participation in processes of enjoying and controlling the political power. Besides applied examples from comparative law, references will also be made to the reviewed literature in Turkish and in English throughout the study.

    Qur’an’s concept of messenger

    Aydın, Muhammet

    According to Islam, people come across with religion/revelation through messengers. The divine will declares that sending messengers bestows his favour upon human beings. However, this favour could not be put to good use. This situation can include human, anthropological, psychological and political reasons. Last divine revelation has not only advantages but also bears heavy responsibilities. It is known that, without a correct understanding of the revelation, only being the object of it does not contribute much to a human being/society. There is a need of a sound methodology for a correct understanding. Thus, every school approaches the nass with a certain method and develops a concept of messengers. The human identity of messenger is the main topic which Qur’an points. It seems that the opposition to the human nature of prophet is not limited with the revelation period. It is seen that at the time of the messengers there were over interpretations on their human nature. The first thing which has to be done is to reach directly and simply the concept of messenger through the revelation. After that one can consult to other religious sources of our culture/traditon.
