    Cyberwars and national business systems from a macro-institutional perspective

    Bekar, Fevziye

    From the past to the present, strategies have been developed for business internationalization in the context of strategic management. These strategies have been examined theoretically and practically. To give an example of these approaches, the internationalization processes of businesses were primarily examined under two sub-headings, static and dynamic. A process where globalization affects national culture, social life, and borders is lived. Therefore, macro theory literature is another field that deals with the globalization process and internationalization strategies. The aim of this study is to examine how cyber wars will affect national business systems, based on the macro theory literature, with the interpretive paradigm.

    Demirbağ, Kübra Şimşek

    In this study, workplace spirituality is discussed in the context of remote work and the COVID-19 pandemic. First, the focus is on the changes in the meaning and function of employees in the organization during the evolutionary process of industrialization and management paradigms. Afterward, conceptual frameworks for spirituality and workplace spirituality are presented, and in the last section, academic studies that deal with workplace spirituality with distance or hybrid work arrangements are included. Early studies offer insights and recommendations on conceptualizing, developing, and managing workplace spirituality. They all emphasize that spirituality is necessary for remote work as a tool to overcome stress and mental health problems and increase employee well-being. Unfortunately, the remote work and workplace spirituality literature is relatively narrow and needs to be expanded.

    Grains and Pulses in Diets of the Middle East and a Focus on Buckwheat

    Yılmaz, Hacı Ömer; Meriç, Çağdaş Salih

    Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench and Fagopyrum tataricum (L.) Gaertn.) is believed to have originated in central Asia. Chiefly cultivated in India, Nepal, China, North Korea, Russia, and Japan, it is a pseudocereal containing high protein, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and important antioxidants and phenolic compounds. In addition to its high protein bioavailability and economic value, it is an important alternative food with high nutritional value, suitable for the diet of celiac patients because it does not contain gluten. Buckwheat has gained worldwide importance because of the presence of some important bioactive constituents such as rutin, orientin, vitexin, quercetin, isovitexin, and isoorientin; other essential components like fagopyritols find vast potential for glycemic control in type 2 diabetics, positive cardiovascular effects, treatment of celiac disease, prevention of gallstones, and several hormone-dependent tumors. Currently, various products of buckwheat like flour, bread, biscuits, cookies, muffins, cakes, pasta, noodles, crackers, chips, and various fermented products and desserts are available in the market. Buckwheat has attracted worldwide attention, especially from food scientists, for its healing effects over chronic diseases. This chapter focuses on buckwheat in diets of the Middle East and its important effects on health.

    Dynamics of self-belief to fight against climate change: Evidence from European social survey

    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.

    Digital Marketing and Digital Marketing Applications in the Asian Tourism Industry

    Polat, Eray

    Technology takes the place more and more in human life and directs it. Therefore, it is no longer possible to imagine that marketing, which has a fundamental goal to meet the needs and desires of people, is independent of the technology that has entered such human life. The primary objective of this section is to provide a conceptual framework for digital marketing, which has become increasingly pronounced in recent years. By doing so, the evolution of the marketing mix and digital marketing practices is discussed in particular. The second important objective in this section is to present examples of digital marketing practices carried out by tourism enterprises in Asian countries. When the relevant literature is examined, it can be said that in the context of the Asian tourism industry, this area is left under-researched. In this context, secondary data, generated from the existing literature, were used to collect data. Findings show that digital marketing applications in Asian countries are not yet implemented sufficiently and need to be developed. This issue will be more important for the Y and Z generation tourists who are more deeply related to technology as it is important today.

    Creating Loyal Customers with Digital Marketing Applications: The 5A Model

    Polat, Eray

    As a result of the effects of the digital revolution, it became very difficult for brands to attract the attention of consumers, to sustain this, and to eventually turn them into loyal customers. In this context, the primary purpose of the chapter is to examine how the brand-customer interaction is realized in the way of creating loyal customers with digital marketing activities. The secondary important goal in this section is to provide examples of digital marketing practices carried out by tourism companies in Asian countries to create loyal customers. Also in this section, which subcultures are more important in terms of digital marketing and what are the basic skills that businesses should have in building loyalty in the digital age. When the relevant literature is examined, it can be said that in the context of the Asian tourism industry, this area is left under-researched. In this context, secondary data, generated from the existing literature, were used to collect data. According to the results obtained, Kotler, Kartajaya, and Setiawan (2017)’s 5A (Awareness, Appeal, Ask, Act and Advocacy) model, developed instead of the AIDA (Attention, Interest, Desire and Action) model, consisting of aware, appeal, ask, act, and advocacy stages can be proposed as an important model that can integrate the developments in the digital age into brand-customer interaction. While the subcultures that businesses should focus more on attaining loyal customers are youths, women, and Internet citizens (netizens), the basic skills that businesses should have can be expressed as automation, proactive personalization, contextual interaction, and innovation. It is observed that the activities carried out by the tourism companies in Asian countries to create a loyal customer base are concentrated on the loyalty programs in general. It can be said that these programs, which bring various monetary rewards to users, are also integrated with digital technologies. Besides, it has been observed that businesses concentrate more on aware and appeal stages. However, to obtain a loyal customer group more easily in the digital age, businesses need to carry out activities that may attract the attention of consumers during the ask, act, and advocacy stages.

    Evaluation 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.

    Symptom and Life Quality Management in Oncology Patients

    Demir Doğan, Melike

    Quality of life is a multidimensional concept. Therefore, its assessment includes many parameters ranging from happiness and well-being of individuals to environmental quality and ecological structures. A good symptom management is associated with less symptom formation and thus with a better quality of life. Non-pharmacological interventions typically include various psychosocial, behavioral and environmental strategies that can complete traditional treatment to increase the quality of life for cancer patients.

    THE NOISELESS VOICE OF AKBABA VILLAGE IN BEYKOZ: KETHUDA CANFEDA HATUN

    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.

    Integrated Reporting and Combined Assurance: A Qualitative Research on the Awareness in Turkey*

    Selimoglu, Seval Kardes; Yesilcelebi, Gul

    Purpose: The aim of this study is to reveal the opinions of the auditors, academicians, and institutions that published integrated reports regarding the development and execution of the assurance process of integrated reports. Design/methodology/approach: For this purpose, interviews were conducted using qualitative research technique to determine awareness about integrated reporting and combined assurance. Within the scope of the research, semi-structured interviews were conducted with six auditors, five academicians, and five workers in institutions that published integrated reports. Qualitative data analysis method was used to analyze the data. Findings: As a result of the research, combined assurance process criteria were proposed in the integrated reports which in line with the opinions of the participants. Originality/value: Institutions around the world are increasingly publishing integrated reports. However, when institutions publish integrated reports, there is no clear standard or any guidance on how to ensure the reliability of these reports. It is seen that AA1000, ISAE3000, GRI Standards, and some local standards are used to provide assurance. At this point, the combined assurance model can be used for the reliability of the information in the integrated reports. Integrated reporting and combined assurance are still relatively new concepts in Turkey. Furthermore, this study is important in terms of the lack of studies on how to provide combined assurance for integrated report when scanned related literature in Turkey. Although readily integrated reporting continued in Turkey, it continues to be an area of application is still under development. In particular, the research reflects the level of integrated reporting awareness and how to ensure assurance of these reports.

    Investigation 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.
