Karademir, Aysenur; Unver, M; Tanriverdi, M
This study aims to discover the history of Akbaba village, which is located in the Beykoz district of Istanbul. It was named after Mehmed Efendi, who was a dervish ghazi from Mehmed the Conqueror's anny. He built a dervish lodge, tekke, worshipped there until the rest of his life, and was then buried near it. Mehmed Efendi was known as Akbaba Sultan among the public, and his tomb has been a sacred place visited by Muslims since then. Canfeda Khatun, a ketkhuda wormy: of Sultan Murad M.'s harem, established a mosque and other main buildings there as part of her pious foundation, waif, and a village arose around them at the end of the sixteenth century. That was the way the land became a residential area during the Ottoman period. However, the waqf accounting registers reveal that there was more on Canted& Khatun's mind as the tekke's followers were janissaries in Akbaba. The village stayed as the way it was until 1826 when Sultan Mahmud II abolished the ocak of Janissaries, ending all their tekkes, including the one in Akbaba. As its followers were exiled, Canfeda's waqf lost its importance in the village. It seems that nobody remembers the significance of her waqf at Akbaba today besides the name of Canted& Khatun. This work explores the roots of the village through the help of archival documents, especially from the waqf accounting registers.

Technological developments have left indelible impacts on the economy all along the line. Every novel invention realized changes production processes rapidly, which concomitantly transforms social life. One of the most apparent examples of this is the First Industrial Revolution emerged in the 18th Century. Subsequent to this development which was considered as the beginning of production in the factory environment, the second industrial revolution based on automation (First half of 20th Century) and the third Industrial Revolution based on electronics (last quarter of the 20th century) were realized. Finally, the Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) process was initiated by Germany in 2011. In line with this process in which cyber-physical systems and robotic technologies are expected to prevail, Super-Smart Society (Society 5.0) model was developed by Japan in 2017. Both Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 implementations are expected to have a significant impact on economic and social life and to change both labor and Welfare State practices fundamentally. It is also possible that these aforementioned developments may have an impact on social security system of the government. Likewise, the emergence of extensive unemployment condition due to robotic technologies and training for adaptation of available labor force to the new technologies may lead to redesign of the social security system. The aim of this study is to demonstrate the possible impacts of the Industry 4.0 and Society 5.0 processes on social security expenditures. The basic result obtained from the study; unemployment increase and training activities for the labor-force increases social security expenditures, but however digitalization process in Welfare State implementations may be expected to decrease social security expenditures in the long-run depending on efficiency and effectiveness increases in the government.

Akdede, Sacit Hadi; Keyifli, Nazli; Oktar, SA; Taskin, Y
This paper empirically investigates the determinants of political polarization. Size of government and income distribution are the main independent variables along with other controlling variables. The statistical analysis uses panel data econometric. The sample of countries includes 57 countries and time period spans between 1990 and 2015. Results of regressions analysis indicates that increased income inequality increases political polarization. Political polarization is derived from World Values Survey (WVS). It is measured as standard deviation of responses to the question what is role for government. In addition, results of our empirical indicates that increased government size reduces the political polarization. The paper explains the links for these findings. It concludes with some policy implications.
