NATURE, CULTURE, CITY DIALECTIC IN THE ANTHROPOCENE: READING THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE SOUTHEAST PERIPHERY OF ANKARA
Süvari, Özge; Basa, İnci; Department of Architecture (2022-7-1)
The 21st century has been the century of changing climates, epidemic diseases, forest fires and economic deadlocks that we comprehend solely as ecological rather than a political, economic and aesthetic phenomena.

Kireçci, Mert; Çırakman, Elif; Department of Philosophy (2018)
This study aims to explicate what “nature” means after Kant’s Copernican Revolution. First of all, a presentation of the active contribution of the subject to the experience of nature, within the context of Critique of Pure Reason, will be offered. After discussing the regulative status of the principle of causality (the Second Analogy of Experience) and delineating nature as an a priori concept, the question why pure reason inevitably falls into contradiction with itself will be our central concern. The th...
