Homo historicus coby plastický, nebo elastický autodomestikant?
Authors: Horský Jan
Published: October 2024

Biosemiotics (Barbieri, Markoš) is used in the discussions of analogies between biological species and (human) cultures. The theory of “frozen evolution” contends that biological species behave the same in their elastic stage of development as cultures do in their development (Flegr). In biosemiotics, the narrative is attributed to life itself at all of its developmental stages (Markoš). This all gives clear ground for the humanities and social sciences, especially for the historical sciences, to enter discussions with biology and to apply their discoveries with regards to the character of cultural development (here, culture is understood as a semiotic system). Primarily, it is necessary to differentiate between the interpretative analogies of species and cultures (which only have a noetic and methodological function) and ontic analogies (which have a real congruence with the dynamic structures of “species” and “cultures”). Historical sciences enter this discussion using methods that are more open to interpretation and are semiotically more volatile (polysemic) than those of biology. The humanities prove to offer an interpretation of the gradual growth of the ability to control aggression, which rivals the interpretations of evolutionary anthropology and biology. Thus, the need to rethink in more detail what the comparable counterpart to biological species is arises, especially if we wish to describe the elastic phase of its development using an analogy to the development of human cultures (the following pair seems to come to mind: higher taxons – culture; in comparison to this first pair, there is also one that is one level lower, yet rather allows for comparison: species – selected configurations of cultural contents, cultural variants). It also shows the need to analytically differentiate culture from human behaviour/actions influenced by culture so that it could truly be a comparison of the elasticity of a species and the elasticity inside a certain circle of cultural contents (variants). At those places where biosemiotics takes interest in the origins of human reflexive spirituality and of the experience of transcendence in the last several millennia (Markoš), it can productively cross paths with the civilisationist theory of “axial transformation” (Arnason). However, there is always the issue of how to scientifically connect external signs with the internal experiences of the studied actors. The relationship between external “behavior” (behavior, pratiques, Verhalten) and inner “mental representations” is always discussable from the perspective of science only when using a certain degree of hypothesis. In constructing this image, it shall always be affected by certain meta-physical, meta-biological, or meta-historical assumptions, stemming from, for example, the philosophical analysis of spirituality, transcendental consciousness, or phenomena.
Význam rodových struktur a role rodiny v ustavování sociální identity členů řeckokatolické komunity ve městě Bajt Sáhúr
Authors: Fritzová Marie
Published: October 2024

This article depicts the social identity of the Greek-Catholic Community in the town of Beit Sahour, with a focus on the internal interactions and relationships of its members. The present article focuses mainly on the functioning of family ties and kinship. This article is primarily based on the field research that I carried out between 2009 and 2012 in the West Bank, and which is the main source of data. By analysing and interpreting this data, I try to answer the question of how specific partial internal interactions and relationships within the community confirm or undermine the social identity of its members. This article describes the specific internal life of the Greek-Catholic Community in the town of Beit Sahour, and tries to uncover the practices that strengthen and maintain social identity within the group, such as clan and family relationships, connected also with gender issues and everyday stereotyped behaviours. I try to also show the social identity of the members of the Greek-Catholic Community shaped by family and clan structure through specific situations, such as caring for a sick member of this Community, raising children, and the specific roles of each member of the nuclear families.

Israeli Musicians as National Representatives
Authors: Pánek Jurková Jitka
Published: October 2024

This paper researches how Israeli musicians represent their nation during performances for a foreign audience. It claims that a nation is not always portrayed as a homogenous entity; rather, the musicians relate in various ways to different “imagined communities” (Anderson 1991) through their performances. These strategies are traceable by the musicians’ verbal statements, visual markers, and music. The paper proposes four such strategies.

Nedlouho před svými 84. narozeninami opustil českou historickou obec Jiří Kořalka, významný historik českých a středoevropských dějin 19. a prvé poloviny 20. století. Až do posledních chvil se upínal ke své badatelské práci; touto prací žil a odešel od ní jako od završeného, i když z jeho pohledu stále rozpracovaného díla. Zamyšlení nad životním dílem badatele, který zanechal hlubokou stopu v dějinách své vědecké disciplíny, je v okamžiku, kdy jeho práce byla nezvratně ukončena, poznamenáno bilancujícím hodnocením i osobním vzpomínáním.

Published: October 2024

This comprehensive survey examines the transformative impact of machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and natural language processing (NLP) across diverse business and finance sectors. From micro-level operational efficiencies to macro-level strategic decision-making, we delve into the multifaceted applications of AI and its influence on traditional practices. Our analysis highlights the increasing prominence of ML in enhancing decision-making and achieving greater accuracy and efficiency. We also identify key challenges such as data quality, modelinterpretability, and linguistic information processing. By addressing these challenges, we can further unlock the potential of ML in revolutionizing business and finance. We conducted a systematic literature review using the PRISMA technique to identify relevant research published within the last five years. Our findings reveal the growing adoption of ML techniques in various business and finance applications, such as fraud detection, risk assessment, customer relationship management, and algorithmic trading. We identified relevant publications through comprehensive searches in leading academic databases, including Scopus, Web of Science, and Google Scholar. We also discuss the challenges associated with implementing ML models in these domains, including data quality issues, model interpretability, and ethical considerations. Byunderstanding the applications, challenges, and opportunities associated with AI, businesses, policymakers, researchers, and investors can make informed decisions and leverage AI to drive innovation and growth in the business and finance sectors.
Assessment and learning outcomes for generative AI in higher education: A scoping review on current research status and trends
Authors: Weng Xiaojing , XIA Qi , Gu Mingyue , Rajaram Kumaran , Chiu Thomas K.F.
Published: October 2024

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) impacts higher education assessment and learning outcomes, which are closely related and intertwined. Literature suggests that educators and researchers have many varied concerns regarding student assessment in the higher education GenAI context, such as how to assess students’ learning and the new (refocused) learning outcomes that emerged in GenAI-facilitated learning environments. To provide evidence-based insights into and answers to these concerns, we conducted a scoping review by collating literature in relevant research areas. Following a five-stage scoping review framework, we collaboratively collected and coded 34 studies. The three assessment approaches identified in the review were traditional assessment, innovative and refocused assessment and GenAI-incorporated assessment. The new, refocused learning outcomes identified were career-driven competencies and lifelong learning skills. The review also revealed that most research designs were qualitatively oriented (e.g., with exploratory design, descriptive research, ethnographic research and phenomenological research). This study proposes a holistic diagram showing the current research status and trends. It suggests five future research directions: innovative assessment designs, collaborations among assessment approaches, new learning outcomes, relationships between assessment approaches and learning outcomes, and quantitative or mixed research studies.
 
Implications for practice or policy:

Traditional assessment methods in higher education do not operate effectively in the GenAI era.
Innovative and refocused assessment and GenAI-incorporated assessment are promising strategies to assess student learning.
Career-driven competencies and lifelong learning skills are new focused learning outcomes evolved from the use of GenAI.
More quantitative and mixed research studies should be conducted to provide additional empirical evidence on the impact of GenAI on student assessment and learning outcomes.
Framing of the war in Ukraine: How the international press reacted to the outbreak of the conflict
Authors: Stawski Rafał , Szews Przemysław
Published: October 2024

This article examines how the fights in Ukraine were framed in U. S., French, Polish, and Russian media in the first month of the conflict. Using a modified version of Semetko and Valkenburg’s (2000) method, we found patterns in media portrayals of the events. An analysis of 400 articles showed that media in these countries used roughly the same frames. The most important differences concerned the war and human interest frames, clearly avoided by Russian media. The most profound differences stemmed from how the frames were utilized. Despite using the same frames, media in different countries were able to produce different images of events.

Pure ZnS and Zn1-xCrxS nanoparticles were successfully prepared using the coprecipitation method, where x represents the concentration (x = 0.00, 0.10, and 0.05). There are many analytical methods used, such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and Spectroscopy of energy dispersive (EDS). The magnetism structure of the catalysts was investigated using spectrophotometry (VSM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and differential thermal analysis (DTA). X-ray diffraction studies determine the nanocrystal arrangement and size of microcrystals. As seen in SEM analysis, the particles are agglomerated. The coordination of sulfur ions around zinc ions was examined using FTIR analysis. The energy band gap of the Cr-doped sample increases. Photoluminescence spectroscopy showed that the violet emission around 424 nm could be attributed to the excitation process of electrons from the low energy of the conduction band to the valence band of sulfur intermediate atoms. The front amplitude of doped ZnS nanocrystals remains constant regardless of the amount of Cr present. The results show that the ZnS nanocrystals were replaced by dilute Cr3+ ions. Cr-doped ZnS exhibits diamagnetic properties under hightemperature conditions. The results show that these materials are improved by the Cr doping process, making them suitable for many applications.

Modeling of the semantic structure of a dictionary article in active lexicography
Authors:   Institute of the Ukrainian Language of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine, Tyshchenko Oksana
Published: October 2024

In the article, the main attention is paid to the semantic structure of the dictionary article: its definition, differentiation from the semantic structure of the word; the principles of its semantic modeling, in particular by the type of use of language units; consider the criteria for semantic modeling of a dictionary article in an active type dictionary; as well as the dynamics of the semantic model of a language sign in action on the example of the materials of a new dictionary of the active type. Semantic structure of the dictionary article is a sequence of meanings of a polysemic word, which depends on the type of dictionary and the time of its creation in accordance with the everyday picture of the world and the purpose of the work. The peculiarity of the dictionary of the active type is that it contains a model of a linguistic sign in action, and not in a static system: a meaning that is not historically the first, logically basic, direct, archisemous, that corresponds to the internal form of the word can rise to the first place. The dynamics of the semantic structure of the word should be reflected in the semantic structure of the dictionary article in accordance with the type, task and purpose of the lexicographic work. In order to model the semantic structure of the dictionary article dictionary of the active type, it is expedient to choose a principle based on the type of use of the language unit, in particular, based on the activity parameter. The creation of a modern dictionary of the active type requires a careful analysis of data according to these criteria and the formation of such a semantic structure of the dictionary article, which would, reflect the priorities and needs of speakers in the use of a word in this or that meaning or sub-meaning depending on the sphere of language functioning. Keywords: active type dictionary, semantic structure of a word, semantic structure of a dictionary article, principles/criteria of semantic modeling, language / lexicographic dynamics.

Published: October 2024

Introducción: La anemia posoperatoria es una complicación importante en pacientes sometidos a una artroplastia total de cadera (ATC). El objetivo principal de este estudio fue evaluar la prevalencia de anemia posoperatoria en pacientes sometidos a una ATC programada y determinar si está relacionada con el tratamiento tromboprofiláctico administrado.
Materiales y Métodos: Ensayo prospectivo aleatorizado. Se incluyó a 358 pacientes sometidos a una ATC programada entre febrero de 2019 y enero de 2022, que fueron divididos en 3 grupos para recibir: rivaroxabán 10 mg, enoxaparina sódica 40 mg o aspirina 100 mg como estrategia de tromboprofilaxis diaria.
Resultados: No hubo casos de enfermedad tromboembólica confirmada ni de hemorragia grave. Los niveles de hemoglobina y hematocrito fueron similares en todos los grupos de tratamiento, sin diferencias estadísticamente significativas. No se hallaron diferencias en la incidencia de complicaciones. La suplementación con hierro fue significativamente mayor en el grupo de enoxaparina (p = 0,041). La incidencia de anemia en el modelo de regresión ordinal se asoció con la edad (OR 1,02; IC95% 1,00-1,05; p 0,04), el sexo masculino (OR 0,33; IC95% 0,19-0,56; p <0,01) y la presencia de una comorbilidad (OR 0,49; IC95% 0,28-0,85; p 0,012).
Conclusiones: La tromboprofilaxis utilizada no tiene impacto en el desarrollo de la anemia posoperatoria en pacientes sometidos a una ATC. El sexo masculino, la edad y la presencia de alguna comorbilidad parecen ser los factores que influyen negativamente en la anemia. No hubo diferencias significativas en el perfil de seguridad de estas tres terapias de tromboprofilaxis.

Published: October 2024

OBJECTIVES

To assess whether the association of adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) with pediatric health care utilization differs by age.

METHODS

In this retrospective cohort study, we included patients completing primary care ACEs screening between January 2020 and September 2021. Pediatric ACEs and Related Life Events Screener Part 1 scores were categorized 0, 1 to 3, or ≥4 (none, low, and high, respectively). Two multivariable logistic regression models assessed emergency department (ED) and inpatient utilization across all ages 6 months after screening.

RESULTS

Among 37 315 patients, 15.7% visited the ED and 2.5% were hospitalized within 6 months of ACEs screening. Using no ACEs as the reference, infants and toddlers with any ACEs had lower odds of ED and inpatient utilization, whereas older children with any ACEs had higher odds of ED (age-low ACEs: 0.04, P value < .001; age-high ACEs: 0.08, P value < .001) and inpatient (age-low ACEs: 0.06, P value < .001; age-high ACEs: 0.15, P value < .001) utilization and increased each successive year of age.

CONCLUSIONS

The association of ACEs with health care utilization is dependent on age and is more complex than previously described. These trends may inform specific therapeutic strategies for pediatric patients by age.
Prognostic Significance of Right Ventricular Free Wall Longitudinal Strain and Angiographic Correlation in Acute Inferior Wall ST-elevation MI
Authors: Rajendran Kapil , Salam Abdul , Vasu Jayaram
Published: October 2024

Background: In this study, we assessed the prognostic significance of right ventricular free wall longitudinal strain (RVfwLS) in patients with acute inferior wall MI and investigated its association with angiographic characteristics and adverse outcomes. Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted with 200 patients admitted with acute inferior wall MI who underwent primary angioplasty. 2D speckle tracking echocardiography was used to measure the RVfwLS at the time of admission. Angiographic characteristics were collected, and patients were followed up for adverse outcomes until discharge. Categorical data were compared using the χ2 test or Fisher’s exact test. Logistic regression analysis was used to identify adverse cardiovascular outcomes independently associated with RVfwLS. A p-value of <0.05 was considered statistically significant for all analyses. Results: Compared with patients with normal strain (n=88, 44%), patients with diminished strain (n=116, 56%) had significantly lower blood pressure (56.52% versus 43.58%; p=0.03), reduced tissue velocities (93.3% versus 6.7%; p<0.01), elevated jugular venous pressure (58.93% versus 41.07%; p=0.04), and higher right ventricular systolic pressure (52.04% versus 47.96%; p=0.04). Additionally, patients with diminished strain had a higher incidence of triple vessel disease (80% versus 20%; p=0.026) and arrhythmias necessitating inotropic support (66.67% versus 37.33%; p=0.02), as well as a longer hospital stay (78.7% versus 21.3%; p<0.01) compared with patients with normal strain. In multivariate analysis, arrhythmias (p=0.046; OR 2.05; 95% CI [0.93–8.10]) and right heart failure (p=0.035; OR 3.64; 95% CI [1.35–11.53]) were independently associated with RVfwLS. The optimal RVfwLS cut-off value for predicting adverse outcomes was −14.8% (AUC=0.915; 95% CI [0.876–0.954]; p<0.001), with a sensitivity of 81.3% and specificity of 86.8%. Conclusion: RVfwLS can be used to categorise the severity of infarction and predict adverse outcomes.

The Formation of National Identity in Conditions of Existential Threat: The Cases of Ukraine and Taiwan
Authors:   Polish Academy of Sciences (Poland), Polegkyi Oleksii
Published: October 2024

Despite the distance, Ukraine and Taiwan share parallels in the domain of geopolitical struggle and identity issues. Both are experiencing an ongoing process of national identity strengthening and redefinition. External factors, such as Russia’s 2014 occupation of Crimea and the subsequent 2022 invasion of Ukraine and China’s increasing pressure on Taiwan, have shaped both Ukrainian and Taiwanese identities and people’s attitudes. On the one hand, this paper explores the transformation of Ukrainian identity in the wake of Russian aggression, focusing on how the invasion has influenced the strengthening of civic attachment among Ukrainians. On the other hand, we explore the development of Taiwanese identity in the context of growing distinctions from mainland China, primarily focusing on Taiwan’s ongoing democratization process and developing a self-confident national identity distinct from the mainland. The rise of Taiwanese identity coincided with growing sympathy for Taiwan’s independence. Additionally, we consider the evolving nature of civic and national identities, emphasizing their fluidity and adaptability in response to political and social complexity.
The Impact of the War with Russia on Domestic Politics in Ukraine
Authors:   John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin (Poland), Stępniewski Tomasz
Published: October 2024

This analytical paper explores the impact of Russia’s full-scale invasion on Ukrainian politics and society since 2022. The war has reshaped the political landscape, solidifying existing power structures while bringing military veterans and social organizations to the forefront. The role of Ukrainian oligarchs has diminished due to financial setbacks and the “anti-oligarch law,” though some are adapting through charitable activities. Additionally, the Ukrainian government is curtailing the influence of the Moscow-affiliated church as part of a broader decolonization effort. The article also examines how the conflict has accelerated Ukraine’s drive for EU and NATO integration, with rising public support fostering domestic reforms and anti-corruption measures.
Decolonising Knowledge Production about Ukraine: A Security Aspect
Authors:   University of Portsmouth (United Kingdom), Kushnir Ostap
Published: October 2024

The article aims to identify some of the misrepresentations of Ukraine that originated in Russia and led to distorted perceptions of Ukraine in the English-speaking academia. Apart from that, the article aims to expose the reasons behind the emergence of such misrepresentations, the way to counter them, and the pitfalls of using them in security analysis. The article hypothesizes that the traditional colonial perception of Ukraine prevents Western scholars and policy-makers, whom these scholars consult, from adequately interpreting and securitizing the acuteness of the contemporary Russian threat. To complete the research, the article draws from decolonial and securitization theories. The article argues that the centuries-long othering and denial of agency of Ukraine, combined with the lack of specific expertise on the country and the colonial tradition of knowledge production, led to a comparatively inconsistent response of Western academia to the post-2014 Russian aggression against a sovereign nation. To address the existing inadequacy, Western scholars should become more open to the opinions of their Ukrainian colleagues, accept the merit of unconventional perspectives, and revise Russo-centrism in research frameworks and teaching curricula.

Records of the invasive sun coral Tubastraea and migration offshore-onshore in an estuarine zone of northeastern Brazil
Authors: Sales-Santos Victor G. , Hirose Gustavo L. , Lima Silvio F.B. , Creed Joel C. , Brito Marcelo F.G.
Published: October 2024

Abstract: Invasive corals of the genus Tubastraea exhibit early maturity, rapid growth, and plasticity regarding the substrate they use, which has enabled the genus to quickly become successful and expand its non-native range. For the state of Sergipe there are 23 records of Tubastraea spp. on oil platforms; here we report the first records of the sun coral T. coccinea on the coast in the estuarine zone of the Vaza-Barris River, expanding its invasive range from offshore to onshore. Contaminated oil platforms, vessels, and shipwrecks may have provided a pathway as vectors, acting as stepping stones that connect oceanic regions to the coast. Dispersal may also occur through currents responsible for transporting organisms from the continental shelf to the coast, although this seems unlikely. Thus, we reinforce the importance of constant monitoring of vectors and the coast to minimize the adverse effects of invasive corals on native fauna.

O JORNALISMO COMO (RE)PRODUTOR DE ENUNCIADOS
Authors: Cardoso Darlete
Published: October 2024

Resumo O enunciado não é uma frase ou um aglomerado de frases, mas um conjunto de idéias que, em contexto, dão sentido ao discurso. O presente ensaio tem como objetivo analisar a enunciação no processo de comunicação e interação social, realizada pelo jornalismo como produtor de informação. Demonstra como o jornalismo produz e reproduz enunciados através do discurso noticioso, que utiliza fragmentos da realidade, seja para a transmissão de cultura, seja para influir ideologicamente na formação de opinião pública. O jornalismo fala ao mundo, fala do mundo e fala no mundo. E, nesse falar, utiliza-se da teoria da enunciação e da polifonia na tentativa de apagar as marcas de subjetividade presentes em quaisquer discursos.
Orientações governamentais para a prática da avaliação de aprendizagem no cenário pandêmico de Covid-19 no estado do Paraná
Authors: Romanowski Joana Paulin , Brustolin Eloise Cristina Teixeira Freitas
Published: October 2024

Resumo O artigo resulta de pesquisa realizada com o objetivo de examinar as concepções que orientam o processo de avaliação da aprendizagem durante o cenário pandêmico da Covid-19 e suas implicações para a prática pedagógica dos professores. A metodologia de pesquisa é de abordagem qualitativa e os dados do estudo são os documentos oficiais − Deliberações do Conselho Estadual de Educação−, destinados às escolas de Educação Básica do estado do Paraná. As análises destacam que os documentos focalizam o controle do desenvolvimento de aulas remotas; orientam pouco a direção da realização da avaliação e da promoção dos estudantes. Estão centrados no desempenho e resultados obtidos e no cuidado com a produção de relatórios sobre as aulas ofertadas, de maneira que priorizam o registro das atividades sobre a efetividade da promoção da aprendizagem dos estudantes.
AS CRIANÇAS DIANTE DA TELA: COMO ASSISTEM, RECONTAM E INTERAGEM COM OS DESENHOS ANIMADOS
Authors: Nery Patricia , Rego Teresa Cristina
Published: October 2024

O objetivo deste artigo é apresentar os resultados de uma investigação que buscou compreender os modos como as crianças assistem, interagem e significam os desenhos animados veiculados pela TV. A pesquisa foi realizada no âmbito da investigação qualitativa, por meio de uma análise microssocial que contou com a participação de um grupo de crianças de 9 e 10 anos, estudantes do 4º ano do ensino fundamental de uma escola pública, em Belo Horizonte, Minas Gerais. Integradas à área da Sociologia da Infância a qual se conjugou de forma interdisciplinar com os Estudos Culturais Latino-Americanos da área da Comunicação, as estratégias metodológicas incluíram a observação participante, as entrevistas e as oficinas nas quais as crianças puderam assistir, recontar, conversar e reconstruir as narrativas das séries de animação. A partir de uma análise descritiva e interpretativa das produções das crianças foi possível evidenciar o processo complexo de recepção, no qual a mutabilidade e permeabilidade se fazem presentes em virtude do contexto sociocultural. Nesse sentido, as crianças acessam os referentes disponíveis nas narrativas audiovisuais e os transformam em suas próprias narrativas culturais. Trata-se, portanto, de um estudo que visa contribuir para a compreensão de como as crianças produzem cultura ao interagirem com as narrativas das séries de animação.

Uluslararası yazında, iş zenginleşmesinin iş çıktılarına yönelik etkisi üzerine detaylı çalışmalar olmakla birlikte, ulusal yazında bu çalışmadakine benzer kapsamlı bir model çalışmasına rastlanılmamıştır. Bu doğrultuda özellikle ulusal yazın bağlamında çalışmanın alana katkı sunacağı değerlendirilmektedir. Çalışma sonuçlarına göre, aileden kaynaklı iş zenginleşmesinin iş tatmini, duygusal bağlılık, iş performansı ve örgüte yönelik örgütsel vatandaşlık davranışı üzerinde pozitif ve anlamlı etkileri tespit edilmiştir. Aileden kaynaklı iş zenginleşmesinin işten ayrılma niyeti üzerindeki etkisi ise negatif ve anlamlıdır. Sonuç olarak çalışmada geliştirilen 5 hipotezde desteklenmiş ve elde dilen bulgular alan yazın bağlamında tartışılmıştır.
İSTİKRAR BEŞGENİ MODELİ: TÜRKİYE EKONOMİSİNE MAKRO DÜZEYDE UYGULAMA
Authors: Diler Huriye Gonca
Published: October 2024

Devletlerin istikrarsızlık sorunu, ülkelerin ekonomilerini etkilemektedir. Planlı ekonomiden piyasa ekonomisine geçen her ekonominin temel amacı, ekonomik gerilemenin durdurulması, iç ve dış dengesizliklerin giderilmesi ve sürekli bir ekonomik büyümenin sağlanmasıdır. Bunun için farklı düzeylerde istikrarı yönetmeyi mümkün kılacak etkili bir araca ihtiyaç vardır. Ekonomileri istikrara kavuşturmak için ortak ve temel farklılıkları vurgulamak amacıyla, bir dönemden diğerine geçişte makroekonomik politikalar hakkında bir görüş elde etmeyi sağlayan makroekonomik istikrar beşgeni kavramı kullanılmaktadır. Bu kavram, kamu politikalarının etkinliğinin değerlendirilmesi konusunda yeni bir anlayış getirmiştir. Düşük-orta gelirli Türkiye ekonomisinde 2001 yılında yaşanan kriz için uygulanan politikaların ve sonrasındaki yirmi yılın istikrar durumunu analiz edebilmek amacıyla 2002-2023 döneminde makroekonomik istikrar beşgeninin (MSP) uygulanabilirliği araştırılmıştır. Bu kıyaslama aracı, enflasyon ve ekonomik büyüme, işsizlik, bütçe açığı (GSYH’nin %’si), cari açık (GSYH’nin %’si) gibi önemli makroekonomik göstergeler arasındaki karşılıklı bağımlılığı göstermektedir. Tüm göstergeler, özel bir dereceli ölçek üzerinde temsil edilmektedir. Bu kavramı dünya ekonomilerine uygulayan çalışmalar olmasına karşın, Türkiye ekonomisi için bir çalışma bulunmamaktadır. Bu yönüyle çalışma literatürde önemli bir boşluğu doldurmayı hedeflemektedir. Bulgular, kamu politikalarının geliştirilmesine temel teşkil etmektedir. MSP modelinin ana bulguları, modelin Türkiye ekonomisinin analizi için uygulanabilir olduğunu kanıtlamaktadır. Bu model, özellikle işsizlik ve enflasyon süreci düzenlemeleri alanında kamu politikalarının etkinliğinin değerlendirilmesinde bir araç olarak kullanılabilir.

Dünyada ve Türkiye’de hızla gelişen yapay zekâ teknolojileri pazarlama alanında temel bir unsur oluşturmaktadır. Özellikle müşteri davranışları konusunda daha hızlı ve verimli cevap sunmak için pazarlamada yapay zekâdan faydalanılmaktadır. Yapay zekânın belli bir çalışma prensibi, işleyişi vardır. Kullanılan sanal asistanlar ve robotlar, müşterilerin sorularını daha hızlı yanıtlayarak hem tatmin edici bir alışveriş deneyimi sunmakta hem de zaman ve kaynak tasarrufu sağlamaktadır. İçerik oluşturma, kişiselleştirme, arama motoru optimizasyonu, müşteri davranışları analizi, sohbet robotları, veri analitiği ve otomatikleştirme gibi yapay zekâ destekli sistemler, işletmelere ve pazarlama alanına belge yönetimi, pazar analizi, satış, fiyat tahmini, lojistik, ar-ge çalışmaları gibi tekrarlayan süreçlerde görevleri otomatize ederek hem iş gücü alanında hem de kaynak tasarrufu gibi konularda işletmelere daha fazla zaman kazandırmaktadır. Yapay zekânın pazarlama alanına entegrasyonu, çeşitli açılardan işlemleri daha hızlı, etkin ve verimli yapabilmesi adına pazarlamacılara büyük avantajlar sunmaktadır. Yapay zekâ her gün artan rekabette, işletmelerin pazar dinamiklerine uygun hareket etmesinde ve iyi bir pazar stratejisi oluşturmasında katkıda bulunmaktadır. Gelişen yapay zekâ teknolojilerinin hızlı bir şekilde pazarlama literatüründe yer alması, pazarlamacılara ve işletmelere katkı sağlaması açısından bu çalışma çok önemlidir. Ayrıca bu çalışma, yapay zekâ ve pazarlama entegrasyonunu farklı bir bakış açısı ile açıklamakta, değerlendirmekte ve pazarlama anlayışına yeni deneyimler sunmaktadır.
TÜRKİYE’DE TURİZM ALANINDA YAPILAN ELEKTRONİK AĞIZDAN AĞIZA İLETİŞİM ÇALIŞMALARI ÜZERİNE BİBLİYOMETRİK BİR ANALİZ
Authors: Aslan Ahmet
Published: October 2024

Ağızdan ağıza iletişim (WOM), insanların satın alma kararlarını etkileyen çeşitli kaynaklardan biridir. İnternet ve sosyal medyanın yaygınlaşması, bireylerin gündelik deneyimlerini aktarma biçimlerini değiştirmiştir. Geleneksel medyadan farklı olarak sosyal medyanın, kullanıcıların elektronik ağızdan ağıza iletişim (eWOM) kurmasına olanak sağlamasıyla eWOM popülerlik kazanmıştır. Uluslararası araştırmalarda eWOM sıklıkla incelenmiştir, ancak turizm araştırmacıları tarafından Türkiye'de ne düzeyde ele alındığı bilinmemektedir. Bu nedenle bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye'de turizm alanında yapılan eWOM çalışmalarını incelemektir. Yapılan çalışmalar, bibliyometrik analiz kullanılarak yayınlandıkları yıl, çalışmanın türü ve yazar sayısına göre kategorize edilmiştir. Bu kapsamda makale, bildiri ve tezler incelenmiştir ve toplamda 32 çalışmaya ulaşılmıştır. Anahtar kelimelerden elde edilen kelime bağları incelendiğinde, elektronik ağızdan ağıza iletişimin “TripAdvisor”, “marka”, tüketici davranışı”, “sosyal medya”, “turist” kavramlarıyla ilişkili olduğu tespit edilmiştir. Araştırma sonucuna göre, eWOM, turizm araştırmacılarının yabancı araştırmalarda sıklıkla araştırdığı bir araştırma konusu olsa da Türkiye'de yapılan araştırmalarda hak ettiği ilgiyi henüz görmemiştir. Bu yüzden literatürdeki bu boşluğu doldurmak için turizmde yürütülecek olan eWOM çalışmalarına ihtiyaç duyulmaktadır.
AVRUPA BİRLİĞİ SINIRDA KARBON DÜZENLEME MEKANİZMASININ DÜNYA TİCARET ÖRGÜTÜ HUKUKUNA UYGUNLUĞU
Authors: Yıldız Seçil , Öztürk Zafer
Published: October 2024

Sınırda Karbon Düzenleme Mekanizması (SKDM), Avrupa Birliği’nin (AB) iklim değişikliği ile mücadele etmek ve 2050 yılına kadar nötr iklim hedefine ulaşmak için kabul ettiği çevre düzenleme politikasıdır. SKDM’nin AB Emisyon Ticaret Sistemiyle (ETS) ve diğer karbon fiyatlandırma mekanizmalarıyla uyumlu çalışması planlanmıştır. SKDM’nin uygulanmaya başlaması dünyanın AB ile ticaretini ve küresel ekonomiyi önemli ölçüde etkileyecektir. Bu durum Dünya Ticaret Örgütünün (DTÖ) kurallarıyla çeşitli uyumsuzlukları beraberinde getirebilecektir. Bu çalışmada SKDM işleyişinin DTÖ ile uyumu incelenmiştir. Çalışma sonucunda SKDM DTÖ’nün en çok kayırılan ülke, tarife bağlayıcıları ve ticari kısıtlamalar ile ulusal muamele ilkelerinin ihlaline yol açabilir, ayrıca AB’de GATT XX ve GATS XIV maddelerine istinaden SKDM’yi savunabilir. SKDM iklim değişikliğiyle mücadelenin maliyetini gelişmekte olan ülkelere aktararak küresel ısınmayla mücadelede katkı da sağlayabilir.
