Book Part Book Part Book Part Becoming Smart, Innovative, and Socially Responsible in Supply Chain Collaboration(Igi Global, 2018) Akyuz, Goknur Arzu; Gursoy, Guner[No Abstract Available]Book Part Capital: the Book of Communism(Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Savran, SungurBook Part Book Part Confusions Concerning Sraffa (and Marx): Reply To Critics(Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Savran, SungurBook Part The Controversy Between the Neo-Ricardians and the Marxists(Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Savran, SungurBook Part Critique of Political Economy(Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Savran, SungurBook Part The Current/Potential Legal Issues in Contract Law and Health Law due to the COVID-19 Pandemic(Tuba-turkish Acad Sciences, 2020) Somer, PervinLegal rules are already established rules. Legal structure, while on the one hand, ensures stability and natural predictability of its inherent sanctions, it may be incomplete or inadequate in extraordinary situations, on the other hand. There are certain procedures for enforcement of legal rules; these procedures or the extraordinary conditions of disaster periods might not be suitable for taking quick action. As in the 1999 earthquake, various legal problems have come up in Turkey during the COVID-19 pandemic, which affected the whole world. What is important here is to realize these problems and start searching for a permanent solution. The pandemic process led to certain social, economic, commercial, national and international problems in the world and in Turkey since the very beginning; these problems have unavoidably transformed into legal problems and a search for a solution was initiated. This study focuses on the current and potential issues occurring in contract and health law due to the COVID-19 pandemic.Book Part Eco-Municipalities and Municipal Applications for Sustainability(Igi Global, 2012) Bostanci, Seda H.Climate change effects, losses in natural environment, limited and diminishing energy sources are great threats for the countries in ecological and social aspects. In recent years some districts in Istanbul have been badly affected by disastrous floods. Climate change might have taken part of this problem but the main reason for the case is shanty housing, and poor location of settlements nearby to riversides, and even within riverbeds. All those experiences increase the necessity of the ecological planning for the settlements and of applying the Eco-municipal model for creating healthy environments. While some phenomena provide against the sustainable development of Turkish cities, solutions will be found in projects with ecological background. The eco-municipality models and municipal applications for sustainability are criticized for not yet finding a sustainable development model for Turkish municipalities. In the improvement of the sustainable municipality concept, some common decision had been taken and defined the related standards. LA21, EMAS for municipalities, and ISO standards are the examples coming forward. The methodology is based on literature review of experiences of the eco-projects that have been made in municipalities and SWOT analyses for these projects. In Turkey, the first step has been taken in LA21 processes to adopt the eco-municipal approach in transformation. For the further steps, the need for establishing an integrated model among the different applications has been concluded.Book Part Electricity Consumption, GDP and Renewables(Springer international Publishing Ag, 2015) Telatar, M. ErdincThis chapter analyzes the relationship between renewable and non-renewable electricity consumption and economic growth for 130 countries categorized into four groups based upon the World Bank income classification (high, upper middle, lower middle, and low income). The main motivation for this study is to find out whether the causality relationships change depending on the income level of countries. For this purpose panel causality tests are used. Electricity consumption data is disaggregated into renewable and non-renewable sources with the aim of providing more information for policy makers to use in designing energy policies in the context of environmental and sustainable development. The results of the study show that the conservation hypothesis is supported for high, upper-middle and lower-middle income groups, while the neutrality hypothesis is supported for low-income countries. The main finding of this chapter is that the causality relationship between electricity consumption and economic growth disappears for lower-income levels. We can conclude that implementing green economy policies in the context of sustainable development is a reasonable choice for developing countries, provided that it is supported by developed nations.Book Part Book Part Book Part Book Part Book Part Book Part Exploration of Multi-Cultural Teaching and Learning in a Collaborative Virtual Environment(Igi Global, 2011) Yamamoto, Gonca Telli; Featherstone, Michael D.; Karaman, Faruk; Borstorff, Patricia C.This chapter presents an experiential case study of a multicultural virtual team project conducted by educators at two countries of three universities whose students came from very different cultural backgrounds. The authors suggest that new technologies present businesses and the institutions charged with training business professionals with a significant paradigm shift. Among the devices enterprises now employ to compete in the global business environment are virtual teams. We submit that it is incumbent upon educational institutions to formulate processes by which students may gain experience in the virtual work environment. The chapter details the experiences both students and instructors encountered in creating and participating in a cross-cultural virtual team conducted predominantly in a virtual environment. We describe problems encountered and often (though not always) overcome. Students learned both the rewards and the frustrations such teams experience as they learned to participate in and contribute to the collective intelligence of the team.Book Part Extraction Techniques for Plant-Based Bio-active Compounds(Springer-verlag Singapore Pte Ltd, 2019) Omeroglu, Perihan Yolci; Acoglu, Busra; Ozdal, Tugba; Tamer, Canan Ece; Copur, Omer UtkuBio-active compounds include terpenoids, alkaloids, nitrogen-containing compounds, organosulfur compounds, and phenolics. Plant-based bio-active compounds show antimicrobial activity, anti-inflammatory activity, immunostimulatory activity, anticancer activity, antioxidant activity, etc. Due to higher benefits of bio-active compounds, they have been used for the manufacturing of food supplements and food additives and as an alternative to drugs and an ingredient for foods to increase their functionality. The extraction is the main step to obtain a desired bio-active compound from the plant materials. Since bio-active compounds are synthesized in small quantities in plants and embedded within the plant matrix, sometimes complexed with other compounds in the plant, their proper extraction method is very crucial. There are two main extraction methods used for bio-active compounds: classical or conventional methods and nonconventional methods. The classical methods include soxhlet extraction, maceration, infusion, percolation, digestion, decoction, steam, and hydrodistillation. The disadvantages of conventional methods include higher consumption of organic solvents with higher purity, higher cost, lower extraction efficiency, long processing time, and higher temperature. Therefore, as an alternative to classical extraction methods, nonconventional methods have been applied extensively so far. Nonconventional methods were referred to as green technologies. Since energy and organic solvent consumption are reduced, those methods can be regarded as beneficial to the environment. The most important methods are ultrasound-, enzyme-, microwave-, and pulsed electric field-assisted extraction, pressurized liquid extraction, and supercritical fluid extraction. The extraction yields of bio-active compounds are strongly bound on the extraction method, physicochemical properties of the plant material, extraction solvent, temperature, pressure, and time. The present chapter focuses on the technologies used for the extraction of plant-based bio-active compounds and comparison of advantages and disadvantages of the methods and summarizes the recent advances in this field.Book Part Lean Production and Flexibility: the Highest Stage of Taylorism(Palgrave Macmillan, 2024) Savran, SungurBook Part M-Learning: New Concept, New Rules, New Implementations in Marketing in Cases on Challenges Facing E-Learning and National Development: Institutional Studies and Frameworks(Igi Global, 2011) Yamamoto, Gonca TelliMobile learning is a new way of learning in contemporary education, and it is one of the latest stages information society has reached. Cell phones/PDA's, which are launched as the most enhanced instruments of mobile systems, posses certain peculiar characteristics compared to existing computers in terms of accessing, sharing, and creating information, and they become a part of life in a much faster way. They represent unique distinctions such as being operable 24/7 everywhere within the coverage area, and having the ability to communicate and deliver messages to almost any corner of the world. The mobile instruments open new gates of the world beyond the person and develop new environments of information sharing for everybody around the world. Such a change automatically brings out certain different rules and applications, while necessitating to act beyond conventional marketing rules for the presentation of the emerging product/service (learning) to the consumer. This study considers concepts, rules, and applications of mobile learning and associated issues through conceptual mapping. The applications realized as well as the social issues which have arisen within the frame of these applications and which are influential in general as the social tendencies are contemplated. Under the light of all foregoing developments, the use of instruments such as mobile channel, Internet, word of mouth, word of mob, and blog in m-learning marketing is discussed. One should expect the promotion activities which have been heavily realized in the beginning stage for the users to adopt m-learning to shift towards marketing aspect in time. This study could be defined as the process through which an education typically moves, as well as the moves of marketing of these programs. User friendly applications of mobilogren (http://www.mobilogren.net/) from Turkey will be given as a case study as a sample of a beginning stage of these developing software.
