Lotfata, Aynaz; Ataöv Demirkan, Anlı; Tekeli, İlhan; Department of City and Regional Planning (2014)
Urban space, as a sociocultural phenomenon, is (re)constructed as a result of changes in the contextual attributes, from global to local scales. Contemporary urban spaces are involved in inter- disciplinary development and transformation aimed at creating a living, resistant and inclusive place.

The influence of nationality and gender on ethical sensitivity: An application of the issue-contingent model
Simga-Mugan, C; Daly, BA; Onkal, D; Kavut, L (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2005-03-01)

This paper examines ethical sensitivity regarding the duties to clients and owners (principals), employees (agents), and responsibilities to society (third parties). Within this framework, ethical perceptions of male and female managers are compared between the U.S. and Turkey - two countries that differ on power distance as well as the individualis...
