Questioning the publicness of public spaces in post industrial cities
Akkar Ercan, Zübeyde Müge (2005-01-01)
The proliferation of alluring, distinctive and exclusive public spaces in many postindustrial cities raises the question of how far these environments are truly "public." Focusing on this question, this article explores the changing "publicness" of a recently redeveloped space in the city center of Newcastle upon Tyne, Britain, in relation to the dimensions of access, actor and interest. It further seeks to underline two emerging trends: the blurring of distinction between public and private spaces in the p...
Questioning 'sustainability' of forest lands allocated and used for tourism in Turkey
Biter, Serdar; Akkar Ercan, Zübeyde Müge; Department of City and Regional Planning (2009)
Turkey is one of the leading tourism countries of the world. Tourism contributes to not only national economy but also regional development. Turkey has adhered to several international conventions regarding economic, socio-cultural and environmental sustainability. Nonetheless, since the onset of the 1980s, Tourism Encouragement Law’s main policies, along with the globalization and privatization, have developed mass tourism in Turkey, and led to continuous damage on the natural environment. Over the last th...
ANALYZING THE EUROCENTRIC FRAMEWORK OF PSYCHIATRISTS’ NARRATIONS OF SOCIAL PROBLEMS IN TURKEY
Akgüloğlu, Gönül Ezgi; Mücen, Barış; Department of Sociology (2022-8-5)

Against Slagle's Reading of Eliminative Materialism on Self-Defeating
Tümkaya, Serdal (2022-04-01)
Jim Slagle claims that eliminative materialism (EM) denies some of the mind's self-evident properties, such as intentionality, qualia and the view that beliefs are real or veridical. I, herein, will argue that what EM denies is actually the folk psychological notion of belief, not belief as such. The Churchlands construe propositional belief as merely one kind of representation in the larger representational scheme. The point here is not to deny belief, but to construe it as one of the, and possibly a very ...
Mazoşist Kişilik Özelliklerinin Freud ve Fairbairn’in Kuramları Açısından İncelenmesi: Mazoşizmin Tanımı ve Klinik Görünümü
Keser, Emrah (ODTÜ- AYNA Klinik Psikoloji Destek Ünitesi, 2022-10)
Mazoşizm, DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) ve ICD (International Classification of Diseases) gibi yaygın olarak kullanılan tanı ve sınıflama sistemlerinde, dar anlamıyla, cinsel sapkınlıklar başlığı altında yer almaktadır. Psikanalitik literatürde ise mazoşizm çok daha kapsamlı bir biçimde, kendi aleyhine işleyen kişilik özellikleriyle tarif edilmektedir. Kendine engeller çıkarmak, diğer insanlarda reddedici ve saldırgan davranışları tetiklemek, talihsiz kararlar vermek, keyif ala...
