Uğur, Candan Yilmaz
This study focuses on the fiscal aspect of the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) introduced by the European Union (EU) and aims to examine the use of revenues from the mechanism for developed and developing countries. The CBAM aims to prevent carbon leakage and promote environmental sustainability through carbon pricing, while at the same time generating significant public revenue for the EU. The envisaged use of these revenues in strategic areas such as green transformation, sustainable infrastructure projects and similar is an important step in contributing to the EU's environmental goals. However, given the risk that underdeveloped and developing countries are disproportionately affected by CBAM, the need for effective use of these revenues in these countries becomes even more evident. In this context, the effective use of CBAM revenues in less developed and developing countries is considered as an important tool to support not only environmental sustainability but also the economic and social transformation processes of these countries.

Yalvaç, Güler; Atalik, Özlem
While new generation technologies are produced, the readiness of the society in which they are produced to the technology to be presented is an important factor that will enable enterprises to obtain maximum benefit from the technology product. It is possible to estimate the readiness of a society for technology according to the level of technology readiness. Resistance to technology refers to the level of adoption or non-adoption of technology by individuals. In this context, the aim of this study is to examine the relationship between technological resistance and technological readiness of passengers travelling to Istanbul Airport. For this purpose, a questionnaire study was conducted on 101 people from the Istanbul Airport departing passenger group. According to the research findings, it was concluded that there is a statistically significant, negative, and weak relationship between technology readiness and technological resistance.

- Kitap BölümüAçık Erişim2024Inferences on countries through MCDM over pharmaceutical consumption
Meydan, Bilge; Şimşek, Ahmet Bahadir
This chapter aims to obtain various inferences about the health systems of countries by using multi-criteria decision making (MCDM) methods on drug consumption data. Pharmaceutical consumption is seen as a useful resource for assessing the performance of health systems. This chapter aims to comprehensively analyse the health systems of countries by combining CoCoSo and TOPSIS-Sort-B methods. Pharmaceutical consumption will be used to assess the performance of countries' health systems for each group within the framework of anatomical therapeutic chemical (ATC) classification. For each ATC class, countries will be ranked by CoCoSo method and classified as good-medium-poor by TOPSIS-S ort-B method. The findings have the potential to be a valuable resource for health systems managers, policy makers, health economists, researchers, and other relevant stakeholders. It will also serve as a practical guide for researchers who want to apply MCDM in the field of health.

Doğan, Kadir Caner
The ombudsman is an institution that accepts citizens' complaints about bad governance practices and the behavior of public administration. Today, it is seen in almost all states of the world. One of its application areas is universities. University ombudsman offices in some parts of the world mostly solve problems between students and the administration.

Popescu, Cristina Raluca Gh.; Kocağ, Esra Karapinar
All prominent leaders, managers, researchers, and specialists worldwide position the positive and constructive contributions for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in the centre of their activities and interests due to the power that the international community holds in reaching all SDG targets and achieving a global partnership for sustainable development (SD). The focal point of this study is represented by individuals' self-belief to fight against climate change and utilizes valuable data from the European Social Survey (ESS) Wave 10 in 2020 on two main areas: the impact that large numbers of people limiting their energy use might have on climate change and the causes of climate change which could be represented by natural processes, human activity, or both. The findings show that more than half of those individuals in the sample are taking bold and transformative steps towards a better future for all choosing sustainability, being more likely to have positive attitudes about individual efforts to control climate change, centering on reducing their energy consumption.
- Kitap BölümüYalnız künye2022Evaluation of the disaster tourism potential of countries
Göktekin, Zekiye; Şimşek, Ahmet Bahadir
Disasters are tragic events that cause losses. The curiosity of people to feel sadness and pain motivates disaster tourism. Each disaster region has the potential for disaster tourism, which offers various benefits. This chapter covers the evaluation of the disaster tourism potential of countries with the fuzzy-TOPSIS method. The criteria affecting the disaster tourism potential as the number of dead, injured, affected, and homeless people were weighted according to the evaluations of the decision-makers. Disasters that occurred worldwide between 1980-2022 were analyzed with the criteria weights based on the countries where they occurred. Decision-makers mostly evaluated the number of deaths and homeless as more effective in affecting the desire to visit a disaster area and the attractiveness of the region. Among 90 countries, it has been determined that Sri Lanka and the Russian Federation are the two countries with the highest disaster tourism potential as to the number of losses/disasters, while Ethiopia is the country with the lowest disaster tourism potential.
- Kitap BölümüAçık Erişim2021Investigation of the foreign direct investment and environmental pollution nexus for developing countries
Çelik, Orkun; Korkmaz, Özge; Adalı, Zafer
In theory, the foreign direct investment and environmental pollution nexus is explained by three hypotheses. Firstly, pollution haven hypothesis assumes that there is a positive nexus between these variables. Secondly, pollution halo hypothesis supposes that there is negative connection between these variables. Lastly, neutrality hypothesis asserts the non-existence of the connection between these variables. In recent years, many researchers have frequently tested whether these hypotheses are valid for different countries. In this study, applying Westerlund panel cointegration test, the authors aim to explore the nexus between foreign direct investment and environmental pollution for 23 developing countries after global crisis. For this aim, they use annual data covering the period 2009-2019. According to the obtained empirical findings, the presence of the long-term nexus between foreign direct investment and environmental pollution is not detected for 23 developing countries. Accordingly, the authors can say that there is neutrality hypothesis.

Çakin, Ömer; Günay, Mehmet Akif
Beyond political and cultural criticisms, grand narratives have the authority to disclose real facts. This authority is most effective in the field of culture. Grand narratives are the universal presentation of local culture. In a culture dominated by grand narratives, the dominant ideology of the regime is to control knowledge. Grand narratives play a role in generalizing and transferring information skillfully while describing the contemporary situation. A novelist was defined as a mirror reflecting the period and society in which he lived. Likewise, Chingiz Aitmatov tried to depict the political, social, and cultural structure of his period, and accordingly, formed his own grand narrative. The author skillfully revealed the facts of the period regarding the Marxist tradition and described the social, cultural, and political structure of the period using a tentative language in parallel with the facts such as analogy, myth, and legend.
