Arts, in this regard are classified into various aspects such as visual arts, creative arts, performing arts and so on. This study examined how these works of art influence and facilitate peace education, social transformation and justice in modern society, in line with these aspects of the arts. The paper focused attention on the interconnection and relationship between artistic works, culture, peace education, social transformation and justice; the study investigates also the impacts of works of arts on peace education and social transformation.
Methodology: Qualitative and quantitative methods, including the use of interviews as well as an organised questionnaire were used to carry out this study. Data have been collected from first and second sources in this study. In order to obtain information from key informants, the interview was tailored, such as the royal fathers who are custodian of Arts and Culture in African Societies, peace advocates, public affairs analysts, and educationists. Secondary information was derived from textbooks, journals, newspapers and internet sources. This work adopted “Structural-Functionalist Theory”.
Findings: The study revealed that if adequate and functional use is made of the works of arts and culture, it will go a long way at alleviating the various ills in the society and guarantee a lasting and enduring peace in the global space.

Published: December 2024

Aim of the Study: This study assessed the neighbourhood satisfaction of residents of two different strata of Offa (Suburban) and traditional.
Methodology: The study administered 25 questionnaires to residents of Olorunkuse Area, Oja-Oba, Popo, and Adesoye College area along Igosun Road. Cross-sectional survey research is the research design utilized in this quantitative investigation. This research, however, is non-experimental and deductive in character because it relies on a field survey that prioritizes accuracy over bias. In order to gather data from respondents and the study area, the research study uses a questionnaire, in-person interviews, and direct observation.
Findings: The study realized that features like communal/neighbourliness, recreational facilities, drainage, communal viability, presence of a market, religious centres, density, schools, and worthy association attract much satisfaction from the respondents in both areas while residents are not satisfied with the refuse dump, serenity, privacy, aesthetics, accessibility, and road quality. For features like land use compatibility, and constancy of electricity, there exists a variation in satisfaction derived in the traditional areas and suburban areas; while residents of suburban areas are satisfied with the above-mentioned features, residents of traditional areas are not satisfied.
Conclusion: Study concluded that neighbourhoods are the smallest units of planning and hence represents the pedestal upon which extensive settlements are laid. Cities, towns, metropolis and megalopolis all sprout up from neighbourhoods and made up of several neighborhoods in the long run. Uneven satisfaction on the other hand is greatly related to communal inequalities hence having the capacity to cause migration and overburdening of facilities in the neighborhoods where residents are satisfied with the features.

Wild Food
Authors: Petruso Michaela
Published: December 2024

In the intersection of food history and colonisation, historical cookbooks are often more prescriptive than representative of actual culinary habitants of individuals. In the colonial setting, cookbooks act as a marker for the subordination of indigenous cuisine in place of cuisines rooted in the heart of the empire—food becomes representative of culture, identity, and civilisation. In the Australian context, the earliest published cookbooks date back to the 1860’s, a period in which Australia saw extensive cultivation, pasteurisation, and settlement. Thus, as we trace Australian cookbooks through the late 19th and early 20th century, the inclusion and exclusion of exogenous foodstuffs becomes indicative of both colonial identity markers and performative campaigns to associate the colony with specific and particular notions of what cuisine should consist of. By analysing the recipes and discourse of historical cookbooks and emigrants’ guides in Australia, the performative nature of food asserts the tenets of culinary colonialism by maintaining spaces of control and occupation through the association of cuisine, identity, and civilisation.

The first Greenlandic photographer, John Møller, produced over 3000 images in the period 1889-1922. This article seeks to analyse and contextualise selected images from Møller’s practice. In doing so, the article explores the photographer’s agency on composition choices, power dynamics and colonial hierarchies. Furthermore, the article suggests that Møller, through counternarratives in his visual representations, unveils nuanced reflections of power dynamics and a subtle critique and resistance that served to undermine the Danish colonial authority in Greenland.
Frames of Domination

Published: December 2024

From the establishment of the first Australian colony until the mid-1900’s, Aboriginal people were routinely forcibly restrained using chains by white settlers. Using two lenses, this article analyses a selection of photographs published in colonial newspapers, depicting this practice. It firstly examines how colonial photography constructed the Aboriginal body as an object of fear to be controlled by the frightened settler. This article also interrogates how these photographs appealed to humanitarian sympathies, which themselves were highly conditional, with comparisons to slavery embodying a ‘safe’ method of critique, one which did not challenge the settler colonial state.

The personal experiences of Karen Blixen as settler, white, woman and hunter functions as an embodiment of the colonial and imperial views of this time and place.
'Métis' Child Removal in French Indochina
Authors: Antonisen Ida Kaae
Published: December 2024

In this article, the practice of removing mixed-race, or métis, children from their indigenous mothers in French Indochina is examined. While the changed circumstances of the Second World War and the ensuing process towards decolonisation forced colonial authorities to rethink their priorities, the practice of child removal remained constant. Against the backdrop of this persistent and relatively unchanging practice, changes and continuities in rhetoric about and justifications for child removal reveal underlying colonial interests and anxieties around race, memory, and maintaining French influence, even beyond the official end of French colonial rule.
THE AUDIOVISUAL AESTHETICS AND POLITICS OF GAYE SU AKYOL’S MUSIC
Authors: Yılmaz Çağrı
Published: December 2024

This textual study explores the politically motivated art of Gaye Su Akyol, a notable female voice in today’s Anatolian rock scene, who opposes power-based inequities. Akyol’s music partakes of local and global musical idioms, with politically charged lyrics and allegorical music videos, all of which warrant in-depth analysis. To this end, the research initially presents an overview of Akyol’s background and Anatolian rock, her primary source of inspiration. The study employs intersectionality as a critical analytical tool to dissect the political subtexts within the audiovisual aesthetics of Akyol’s art, for she utilizes a wide variety of politically constructed symbolic imagery that enhances the depth of her narrative. Subsequently, it analyzes her songwriting and music videos—namely, İsyan Manifestosu and İstikrarlı Hayal Hakikattir, to unravel the underlying political messages through the modes of close and contextual readings. The findings demonstrate that Akyol undermines dualities such as West/East, modern/traditional, man/woman, straight/queer, culture/nature, and human/nonhuman to foster empathy, reconciliation, transformation, and hope. Her artistic endeavors challenge prevailing injustices and biases and stand in solidarity with Others through a spotlight on inclusivity and diversity. The research concludes that Akyol crusades for progressive values against inequalities through her contrarian art.

Authors: Gülbahar Simge , Koca Duygu
Published: December 2024

This study explores user experiences in the primary territories of student housing provided by a university in Turkey through user-generated content (UGC). Primary territories are private zones where users optimize ownership and privacy in student housing. Students spend most of their times in these spaces during their stay. UGC originates from online platforms on which users can freely contribute their own thoughts, opinions, and experiences. In this study, UGC on YouTube was investigated to analyze students’ experiences in terms of the objective and subjective dimensions of primary territories. As a methodology, qualitative content analysis was used. Auditory and visual information from YouTube videos was used as the data set to ascertain user feedback to understand which spatial attributes were of the greatest interest to users for demand-based expectations. The data were analyzed by coding user comments in videos thematically, in regard to objective and subjective dimension of space to understand which experiences or interior elements were more common in primary territories. The study findings highlight interior attributes most frequently mentioned in UGC. The results encompassed experiences that are prominent in user expectations and serve as typical selection criteria for users when making relevant decisions.

Authors: Karakuş Filiz , Çalışkan Ekrem Bahadır
Published: December 2024

With the conquest of Istanbul, the Ottoman Empire synthesized the building culture of Islam and the Seljuks with Byzantine architecture and built magnificent structures. The domed central space is an important element of Turkish mosque architecture, and many original attempts were made in this direction. In the 16th century, when Ottoman architecture reached its most glorious age, the idea of creating a clear space was put into practice in the Ottoman period by removing the closed courts shaped around the central dome used in Seljuk architecture in terms of plan construction. The centralist fiction developed with Mimar Sinan and reached its highest point with the Selimiye Mosque. The subject of this study is the domed mosques built by Mimar Sinan. Within the scope of the research, first, a list of mosques designed and built by Mimar Sinan was prepared, and a literature review was conducted. These buildings were evaluated typologically in terms of their construction dates, plan types, last congregation features, number of minarets and minaret balconies, and construction materials. These buildings' structural features and transition elements to the dome were also classified. In this way, it is aimed to associate the mosques designed and built by Mimar Sinan typologically.

Bu değişmeler ışığında XIX. yüzyılın sonlarından itibaren çevreye yaklaşım tarzında bilimsel bakış açısı gelişir. Yeni bakış açısıyla birlikte insan diğer canlılar gibi doğanın hâkimi değil bir parçası olduğu kabul edilir. Çevre ile edebî metinlerin ilişkisini inceleyen ekoeleştiri kuramı, yeni çevre yaklaşımının ardından yaygınlık kazanır. Bu çalışmada da ekoeleştirel kuram bağlamında Sezai Karakoç’un hikâyeleri incelenmektedir. Doğa, Sezai Karakoç’un öykülerinde bireyin özünü oluşturan özelliğiyle ortaya çıkar. Doğadan kopma esas itibarıyla özden de uzaklaşma anlamına gelir. Doğayla özdeşleşemeyen, ondan ayrılarak kentte tutunmaya çalışan insanlar, hikâyelerde bunaltılarını yaşamak zorunda kalırlar. Aynı zamanda doğanın bilinçsizce tahrip edilmesi hayvanları da olumsuz anlamda etkiler. Hayvanlar tarafından insanlara karşı gelişen olumsuz tavır ve davranışlar da Sezai Karakoç’un doğa aracılığıyla vermek istediği mesajlar arasındadır.

Türk dünyası dil, kültür ve edebiyat açısından son derece zengindir. Çevirileri yapılan eserler de her ne kadar hazinelerin aslını tutmasa da okuyanın zihninde tesir bırakır. Belki edebî eserin insanı sarıp sarmalayan samimî havasını vermese de mensubu olduğu halkın veya memleketin/milletin insanlarından, tabiatından, gelenek-göreneklerinden, hatta bitki ve hayvanlarından numuneler sunar.
Diğer lehçelerden Türkiye Türkçesine kazandırılmış pek çok eserden bahsetmek artık mümkündür. Pek çok yazar, şair ve sanatçının eserlerinden çeviriler yapılmıştır. Ancak Aytmatov bütün eserleri Türkiye Türkçesine çevrilmiş belki de yegâne yazardır. Bazı eserleri farklı mütercimler tarafından farklı dillerden tercüme edilmiş ve hatta farklı isimlerle yayınlanmıştır.
Dünya edebiyatında önemli bir yere sahip olan Cengiz Aytmatov’un eserleri ve düşüncelerinden pek çok yazar ve şair etkilenmiştir. İnsanın iç dünyasını, milli kimlik ve kültürel değerlerini eserlerinde yansıtması onun geniş kitlelere ulaşmasına sebep olmuştur. Aytmatov’un evrensel bir yazar ve düşünür olması pek çok yazar ve şairin eserlerinde yaşamaya devam edeceğini göstermektedir.
Bu çalışmada Kırgız şairi Elmira Tölökova’nın dünyaca ünlü yazar Cengiz Aytmatov’un eserlerinden ve eserlerindeki karakterlerinden esinlenerek kaleme aldığı şiirleri Türkiye Türkçesine aktarılarak incelenmiştir. Şairin dizelerinde Aytmatov’un kahramanlarına yer verilerek kahramanların yer aldıkları eserler hakkında kısa bilgiler verilmiştir. Çözümlemelerde şiirlerin yapısından ziyade muhtevaya önem verilmiş; imge ve simgelerden ve metaforlardan hareketle çözümlemeler yapılmıştır.
Elmira Tölökova kaleme aldığı bu şiirleriyle Aytmatov’un değerini göstermesinin yansıra milletine, topraklarına, kültürel değerlerine de sahip çıktığını kanıtlamıştır.
RICHARD K. MORGAN’IN TAKESHI KOVACS ÜÇLEMESİNDE TRANSHÜMANİZMİN YANSIMALARI
Authors: Bingöl Ulaş
Published: December 2024

1960’larda ortaya çıkan ve insanlığın geleceğiyle ilgili iyimser fikirler öne süren transhümanizm hareketi, esasında bilim ve teknoloji sayesinde insanlığın huzura ve mutluluğa erişeceğini ileri sürer. Bilim ve teknoloji hakkında iyimser bir tablo çizmesine rağmen transhümanizm farklı yönlerden eleştirilmiştir. Transhümanizmin ileri sürdüğü fikirler birçok açıdan bilimkurgu romanlarına konu olmuştur. İngiliz yazar Richard K. Morgan’ın Takeshi Kovacs üçlemesinde gelecekte bilim ve teknoloji nedeniyle yeni toplumsal düzende insanlığın karşılaştığı birtakım sıkıntılar dile getirilerek transhümanist iddialara yönelik bazı eleştiriler ifade edilir. Üçlemenin kahramanı olan Takeshi Kovacs’ın dijitalleştirilmiş bilinci büyük şirketler veya zengin bir iş adamı tarafından başka bedenlere transfer edilerek onun iradesi dışında kullanılır. Üçlemede 26. yüzyılda geçen olaylar, bilim ve teknolojinin gelişmesine rağmen sosyal adaletsizliğin devam ettiği, çokuluslu büyük şirketlerin teknolojiyi kendi çıkarları için kullandıkları anlatılır. Bu çalışmada Richard K. Morgan’ın Takeshi Kovacs üçlemesinde transhümanizme yönelik geliştirilen eleştiriler ele alınacak ve transhümanist iddialardaki çelişkiler incelenecektir.
TARIK BUĞRA’NIN “HAVUÇLU PİLAV MESELESİ” ÖYKÜSÜNDE ZAMANIN ANLATIBİLİMSEL ANALİZİ
Authors: Can Muhammet
Published: December 2024

Anlatıbilimde zaman kavramı, özellikle Gérard Genette’in teorik katkılarıyla kapsamlı bir çerçeveye oturtulmuş ve Türkçe literatürde bu teoriden yararlanarak çeşitli analizler yapılmıştır. Post-klasik anlatıbilimin gelişimi, Genette’in modelindeki eksiklikleri ortaya koymuş ve yeni yaklaşımların gelişmesine zemin hazırlamıştır. Bu bağlamda, Mieke Bal’ın anlatının alımlanma sürecine odaklanan çalışmaları öne çıkmaktadır. Bu makale, Genette ve Mieke Bal’ın zaman teorilerini Tarık Buğra’nın “Havuçlu Pilav Meselesi” adlı öyküsüne uygulayarak, yazarın zaman kullanımını analiz etmeyi ve bu kullanımın metnin anlam dünyasındaki etkilerini incelemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışmada, öyküdeki zaman kaymaları ve anakronik yapıların analiz edilmesiyle, zaman kullanımının öykünün dramatik yapısına katkıları ele alınmakta ve post-klasik anlatıbilimin anlatılara yaklaşım biçimi örneklendirilmektedir. Genette’in sistematik kategorileri ile Bal’ın daha esnek ve kapsamlı analiz yöntemlerinin bir arada kullanıldığı bu araştırma, öykünün zamansal yapısının okurun alımlama sürecini nasıl etki etkilediğini ortaya koymayı hedeflemekte ve anlatı zamanının metin analizindeki işlevine dair yeni bir bakış açısı sunmaktadır.

Published: December 2024

İyilik kavramı içerisinde çoğunlukla anılan özelliklerden bir tanesi de sosyal yardımlaşmadır. İnsanlık tarih sahnesine çıktığı dönemden itibaren iyilik kavramına önem vermiş ve bu hususu destekleyen ögeleri de teşvik etmiştir. Bu bağlamda, teşvik edilen hasletlerden biri de konukseverliktir. Farklı kültür, etnik yapı ya da dini ayrıma girmeden hangi insan topluluğuna bakılırsa bakılsın hepsinde misafirperverliğin övüldüğü görülmektedir. Bu bakımdan ilgili haslette öncü olan kişilerin de övgülerle kuşaktan kuşağa nakledildiği bilinmektedir. Araştırmamıza konu olan Tayyar Uzun (Tayyar Hoca) da kitlelere mal olmuş ve konukseverliği ile herkesin takdirini kazanan bir şahıs olmuştur. Dolayısıyla bu araştırma onun söz konusu hasletlerini ve bunun yansımalarını analiz etme amacı gütmektedir. Araştırma örnekleminin verileri neticesinde Tayyar Hoca’nın yaşadığı dönemde önemli bir sosyal yardımlaşma açığını kapattığı görülmüştür. Tayyar Hoca’nın konukseverliğinde Türk-İslam kültürü de belirleyici bir unsur olmuştur.
BAĞDATLI ES’AD’IN HAYATINA DAİR YENİ BİLGİLER
Authors: Topak Zafer , Aljbori Hussain Haki Ismail
Published: December 2024

18. yüzyıl klasik Türk edebiyatının, Nedîm çizgisinde şiirler yazdığı ifade edilen şairlerinden Bağdatlı Es’ad’ın hayatına dair bilinenler, temelde Silâhdâr-zâde Tezkiresi, Şefkat Tezkiresi, Tezkire-i Şu’arâ-yı Bağdad, Sicill-i Osmânî ve Tuhfe-i Nâ’ilî adlı tezkire ve biyografi kitaplarında yer alan ve genelde birbirini tekrar eden oldukça sınırlı bilgilerle şairin Divan’ındaki bazı manzumelerinde yer alan ifadelerden hareketle ulaşılan çıkarımlara dayanmaktadır. Bu makalede, Bağdatlı Es’ad’ın hayatından söz eden özellikle Arapça kaynaklar incelenmiş, şairin biyografisine dair yeni katkılar sunacağını düşündüğümüz bilgiler ele alınmıştır. Es’ad’ın mevcut Türkçe kaynaklardaki biyografilerinde yer alan kimi boşlukları dolduran, kimi bilgileri doğrulayan ve kimi yanlışlıkları da tashih eden bu bilgilerin, şairin biyografisine zenginlik kazandıracağı düşünülmektedir. Ayrıca bu çalışmanın, Bağdatlı Es’ad gibi uzak coğrafyada yaşayan bir şairin hayatına dair verilere ulaşılmaya çalışılırken Türkçe temel kaynaklar kadar şairin yaşadığı bölgede yazılmış farklı dillerdeki kaynakların incelenmesinin de önemli sonuçlar ortaya koyabileceğine işaret etmek gibi dolaylı bir amacı da vardır.
Social network dynamics of tobacco smoking and alcohol use among persons involved with the criminal legal system (PCLS): A modeling study
Authors: Khanna Aditya , Rousell Noah , Davis Tori , Zhang Yurui , Sheeler Daniel , Cioe Patricia , Martin Rosemarie , Kahler Christopher
Published: December 2024

Background: Tobacco smoking and alcohol use contribute to a synergy of epidemics (a “syndemic”) that disproportionately affects persons involved with the criminal legal system (PCLS) and their social networks. An improved understanding of the complex interrelationships among the factors of the incarceration-tobacco-alcohol syndemic is essential to develop effective reform policies and interventions. However, collecting empirical data on these interrelationships is often hampered due to logistical and ethical challenges.
 Methods: We developed an agent-based network model (ABNM) to simulate the effects of the incarceration-tobacco-alcohol syndemic in the state of Rhode Island, USA. The model was validated and calibrated using empirical survey and demographic data. Outcomes included current smoking and heavy alcohol use rates in the first year after release among previously incarcerated agents and in their social networks.
 Results: The model successfully replicated demographic, substance use, and incarceration-related parameters. Simulation results suggest high rates of smoking (approximately 80% currently smoking persons in the first few weeks after release) and heavy alcohol use (approximately 40% current heavy alcohol use rate in the first few weeks after release) among PCLS, especially persons with multiple incarceration events. The model also estimated elevated rates of current smoking and current heavy alcohol use in the direct social contacts of PCLS.
Discussion: This ABNM integrates biobehavioral health processes relating to incarceration and substance use. This model can be used as a platform to evaluate the potential impacts of interventions provided to PCLS and their networks
