The role of the architect and autonomy of architecture : an inquiry into the position of the early modern architect and architecture: Le Corbusier and Maison Curutchet
Seyhun, Canan; Cengizkan, Ali; Department of Architecture (2004)
This thesis is an inquiry into the position of architecture both as a cultural product and as an autonomous discipline. The purpose to search for architectural autonomy is to discover architecture̕s internal values that can make architects become more aware of their tools and potentials. That kind of research is to discover the boundaries of the discipline of architecture, which interrelates with many other disciplines. In order to explore architectural autonomy, this thesis explores the internal qualities ...
The Evolution of Grain Policy: The Ottoman Experience
Agir, Seven (2013-03-01)
Ottoman reformers' re-organization of the grain trade during the second half of the eighteenth century had two components—the creation of a centralized institution to supervise transactions and the replacement of the fixed price system with a more flexible one. These changes were not only a response to strains on the old system of provisioning, driven by new geopolitical conditions, but also a consequence of an increased willingness among the Ottoman elite to emulate the economic policies of successful riva...
The Greek political elite and the European identity: impact of the debt crisis
Çengel, Esra; Ünlü Bilgiç, Tuba; Department of European Studies (2018)

It is assumed that this negative change has been reflected in their discourses throughout the crisis. Therefore, this thesis will try to demonstrate the change through discourse analysis of the political elites’ speeches from 2002 to 2015. In doing so, it w...
The Underground man of the 19th Century : a comparative study on Nietzsche and Marx
Acar, Zeliha Burcu; Parkan, Barış; Department of Philosophy (2013)
In this thesis I searched for an Underground Man in Nietzsche and Marx. My search depends on an epistemological ascertainment. Kant’s argument that the human mind cannot achieve knowledge of the thing-in-itself lies in the background of my thesis. I think that this argument is connected with the origins of modern philosophy. My thesis is concentrated on the 19th century. I perceived that with Kant’s argument the fact that we can know this world within a subjective framework is emphasized especially in this ...
The social construction of childhood in the Ottoman society: a socio-legal analysis of childcare in early eighteenth-century Üsküdar
Dal, Eyüp Ensar; Tülüveli, Güçlü; Department of History (2021-3-18)
This thesis examines the concept of childhood in terms of childcare in Ottoman Üsküdar in the early eighteenth century. By using Üsküdar Sharia court records, it is aimed to conduct a socio-legal analysis of childcare as custody, maintenance and guardianship of children. Since the socio-legal approach of this thesis presents the results of the social and legal structures of childhood in early modern Ottoman society in family relations, this thesis presents an analysis on the construction of the concept of c...
