The purpose of this study is to examine the right approach to deal with the internationalization of competition law and policy. The study particularly questions whether convergence of competition legislation of nations as a strategy is enough to deal with the international anticompetitive practices in the absence of a global competition regime. This search surely involves the increased and enhanced cooperation efforts in between and among states. The internationalization of competition law and policy stems from the necessity to fill the gap in between the domestic competition regimes and the international business activities. In this context, this study refers to a three level analysis; the venue search for international competition matters at the multilateral level, the unilateral application of competition legislation, and the bilateral and regional cooperation efforts. All these three levels together compose the internationalization process itself. To this end, this study argues that a global competition regime can be achieved if only grounded on a good understanding of the process of the internationalization of competition law and policy. Indeed, the nature of this inquiry necessitates new insights from other disciplines. Thereof, this study displays that particularly international relations theories would shed a light on the conceptualization of the internationalization process in question.

Problems of nepotism and favouritism in the police organization in Turkey
Mutlu, K (2000-01-01)
Policing in a democratic, free society is one of the essential arguments in the literature. However, the data collected from the police chiefs (N = 306) show that nepotism and favouritism enforced mostly by politicians, are the main problems in police organization in Turkey. That means that legality is ignored by the governing political parties at the expense of democratization of policing. Consequently, law enforcement and maintaining social order within the principles of democracy are Problematic in Turke...

Institutional imperatives versus emergent dynamics: a case study on continuous change in higher education
Kondakçı, Yaşar (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2009-10-01)
This qualitative case study examines continuous change in a higher education organization (HEO). Both real time and retrospective data covering a 6-year period of the case were collected. The findings suggest that, in order to meet institutional imperatives the HEO defined several managerial and academic domains when the internationalization process was launched. When organizational members activate these domains they confronted with local needs, problems, and opportunities, which enable them to modify, upd...
