Köktürk, Seda Nur; Esgin, Özge; Bulbul, Ali Savas; Sahin, Engin
Aim: This study aimed to investigate the psychological difficulties and challenges related to food insecurity following the earthquakes in Kahramanmaraş province on February 6, 2023, particularly examining the relationship between Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and food insecurity among survivors. Subjects and methods: The research included 504 adults (71.4% female). The study assessed the subcomponents of food insecurity and measured PTSD levels among participants. It also evaluated the prevalence of Gastrointestinal System (GIS) issues and appetite loss. Results: Individuals facing food insecurity exhibited higher median PTSD scores compared to those not experiencing food insecurity. A significant majority of individuals with PTSD (90.2%) also encountered GIS issues, with a notable prevalence of appetite loss. GIS problems were common among those experiencing food insecurity. Conclusion: Many disaster victims endure both food insecurity and PTSD, negatively impacting their dietary habits and health. Providing clean, dependable, and nutritious food post-disaster can reduce health risks. Psychological support and therapy for PTSD can aid recovery. More detailed studies on nutritional status are needed for deeper insights.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2025The impact of economic freedom and democracy on income inequality: a study of selected majority developing countries
Gültekin, Ömer Faruk
Economic freedom is the realization of productive activities without any limitations or restrictions. Unrestricted activities can have a positive impact on the economic development processes of societies In this context, the aim of the study is to investigate whether factors such as economic freedom and its subcomponents, democracy coefficient, and per capita income level have a significant effect on income inequality.. The research conducted for 17 different countries, mostly selected from developing countries, including Turkey, and for the period 1995-2020. Four different quantile intervals constructed through quantile regression. According to the results, improvement in property rights has an increasing effect on income inequality for all quantile levels, while financial freedom and investment freedom have a decreasing effect on income inequality. Increasing per capita income levels and democracy have also had the effect of reducing income inequality for different quantile groups.

Ari, Yılmaz Onur; Zeneli, Fjona
The link between remittances, food security, and economic growth is a complex and important element of the economic development of the society. The study aims to explore the causality relationships between Remittances, Food Security and Economic Growth in the Turkish economy. The period of study from 1974 to 2018 and annual data of Remittances, Calories intake (as a proxy for the food security) and Economic Growth are used in the framework of time series. Techniques such as Zivot-Andrews (ZA) unit root, Toda-Yamamoto (TY), Breitung-Candelon (BCG), and Hatemi-J tests are used to detect the causality assessing the direction of it. The main findings consist of: (i) the presence of cointegration of rank two among series, the lack of linear TY time domain causality; (ii) the presence of BCG spectral causality from Calories intake to Growth only in medium period at 10% significance and, (iii) the presence of asymmetric causality from Remittances to Growth in positive changes, from Growth to Calories intake in negative changes and from Calories intake to Remittances in positive changes respectively at 1,5, and 1% significance. These results provide policymakers with valuable insights into the complexity nature of the relationship among remittances, food security, and economic growth, guiding them in designing effective strategies for poverty alleviation, sustainable development, and inclusive growth.

Oruç, Osman
Hikâyeyi romandan bağımsız ‘müstakil bir tür’ olarak alan ve bu anlayışı kabul ettiren Ömer Seyfettin’den sonra Türk hikâye tarihinde Sabahattin Ali bir kırılma noktası teşkil eder. 1930’lu yıllarda Vakit Gazetesi etrafında kümelenen toplumcu gerçekçi hikâyecilerin propagandist bir tavırla gündeme getirdikleri meseleleri Sabahattin Ali kuru ideolojiyi geri planda tutarak, hikâyeden taviz vermeden ele alır. Öteden beri bir Türkiye gerçeği olan çocuk işçiler toplumcu gerçekçi bir sanatçı olan Sabahattin Ali’nin kimi hikâyelerinde de gündeme getirilir. Sabahattin Ali, toplumsal hayatta gözlenen sosyal adaletsizliği çocuk işçiler vasıtasıyla işleyerek söz konusu sorunu çok daha güçlü bir biçimde, adeta bir çığlık halinde okuyucunun dikkatine sunar. Çalışmaya konu üç hikâyede küçük/çelimsiz bedenleriyle çok çalışıp az tüketenler ile semirmiş/haddinden fazla iri bedenleriyle az çalışıp yahut hiç çalışmayıp çok tüketenlerin çatışması işlenir. Bu çalışmada Sabahattin Ali’nin ‘Apartman’, ‘Arabalara Beş Kuruşa’ ve ‘Ayran’ adlı hikâyelerinde sosyal adaletsizliğin bir sonucu olarak ortaya çıkan bozuk düzenin çalışmaya ittiği çocuk işçiler gerçeği üzerinde durulacaktır.

Emsen, Ömer Selçuk; Gültekin, Ömer Faruk
Suicide is a phenomenon that poses a danger to all parts of society. It is highly likely that there is a strong correlation between socioeconomic indices and suicide rates. The study's goal is to research the relationship between suicide and socioeconomic indicators. In the study, suicide frequency for the period 1990-2017 (per 100 thousand people), per capita income, mean schooling, unemployment rate, and the share of cancer cases in the population variables of the BRICS and MIST country group members analyzed using the Panel ARDL method. According to results, suicide is negatively associated with per capita income and mean schooling. The relationship between the share of cancer cases in the population and suicide is positive. No significant relationship found between the unemployment rate and suicide. Due to certain limitations of the study and the multifaceted determinants of suicide, more studies are needed on the subject. In middle-income countries, increasing wealth and improving educational opportunities play a role in reducing suicide.

Ozden, Erdemalp; Gültekin, Ömer Faruk; Bayramoglu, Turgut
The aim of this study is to examine the effects of socioeconomic indicators such as human development,\rurbanization and female employment rate on income distribution in MIST countries, with both econometric\rand machine learning methods, and to predict the performance of these variables in income distribution\restimation.. Although there are many studies on growth in the economics literature, the income distribution\rhas not found the place it should be. To fill this void, the intensity of studies between growth and income\rdistribution has increased recently. For this purpose, we employed two separate analyzes using the panel data\rmethod and the Support Vector Regression method, which is one of the machine learning methods, by reaching\rthe Gini coefficients, HDI, urbanization, and female labor force participation data of the MIST countries for\rthe years 1990-2019. As a result, all determinants in the random-effects model have a statistically significant\reffect on income inequality. In the model, while HDI and urbanization are significant at 5%, female labor force\rparticipation is significant at 0.1%. Signs of all explanatory variables are negative, and therefore they have a\rdecreasing effect on income inequality. As HDI, urbanization, and female labor force participation values of\rMIST countries have improved since 1990, the Gini coefficients have improved. In other words, the income\rdistribution of these countries has become fairer. Unlike other studies in the literature, the Support Vector\rRegression model was used in this study, and SVR produced a more suitable model for predicting income\rinequality.

Gültekin, Omer Faruk
One of the important results of economic development is the development of trade and the increase in welfare. A reflection of the increase in welfare is the prolongation of human life and the increase in urbanization. Through these indicators, societies are expected to develop economically and socially. In this study, as a reflection of welfare, the effect of commercialization, average life expectancy and urbanization on income inequality in the Commonwealth of Independent States countries and some Baltic countries that gained independence after the dissolution of the Soviet Union after 1991 were investigated. In the study, trade openness and the share of countries in world trade representing commercialization, urbanization representing the increase in welfare, and disposable Gini coefficient and market Gini coefficient representing income inequality examined. For the estimations, four models were created and different results were obtained for each model. In the analysis process, descriptive statistics, correlation matrix, multicollinearity, cross-section dependence, heteroscadasticity, autocorrelation tests were applied. Depending on the test results, the Driscoll-Kraay test was applied and the results were estimated. According to the results, it can be said that while commercialization has a positive effect on income inequality, urbanization has a negative effect on income inequality.

Alacadağli, Esmeray
Children are people’s gateway to the future; they are 30.3% of the world’s population. Childhood is a stage that has a great impact on adulthood and children being healthy individuals. For this reason, child poverty and childhood conditions are very important for individual and community life. Cities are places where people live, and more than 50% of the world’s population lives there. In the cities, whose numbers and sizes have increased over time, the crimes committed have also increased and diversified. For this reason, it has become increasingly difficult to provide urban security today. The aim of this study is to show the relationship between child poverty and urban safety, by carrying out an overview of the global perspective and examining the case of Turkey.

Esmer, Yusuf; Çınar, Döndü
Amaç: Girişimcilik, bir faaliyet alanında üretim faktörlerini bir araya getirerek ülkelerin ekonomik ve sosyal yönden gelişim gösterebilmelerinden daha fazlasını ifade eden bir kavramdır. Yalnızca ticari ve endüstri alanları için düşünülen girişimcilik olgusu tarım sektörü için değerlendirilmeyip bu durum aynı zamanda çiftçilerin ve tarımsal üreticilerin kendilerini birer girişimci olarak görmemelerine neden olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda tarım sektöründe de diğer sektörlerde olduğu gibi girişimcilerin olduğu düşünülerek bunların tarımsal girişimci adı altında değerlendirilmeleri ve desteklenmeleri gerekmektedir. Diğer yandan tarım kırsal kesimlerin en önemli geçim kaynağı olarak görülmekle birlikte tarımın yoksullukla mücadele konusunda önemli bir araç olduğu söylenebilmektedir. Bu durum toplumda yoksulluk gibi maddi ve manevi yönden birtakım sıkıntıları olan kesimler için çözüm üretebilmek adına sosyal girişimci olarak adlandırılan üçüncü sektör örgütlerin ya da kişilerin varlığını zorunlu kılmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı tarımda sosyal girişimciliğin önemini vurgulamak ve literatüre katkı sağlamaktır. Tasarım/metodoloji/yaklaşım: Bu çalışmada ikincil verilerden hareketle tarımsal sosyal girişimciliğe yönelik kavramsal bir analiz yapılmıştır. Bu doğrultuda öncelikle tarımsal girişimcilik kavramı açıklanmış, sonrasında tarımsal sosyal girişimcilik olgusu ayrıntılı bir şekilde incelenmiştir.Bulgular: Kavramsal analiz sonucunda tarım sektörünün ekonomik yönünün yanında sosyal yönünün de olduğu vurgulanarak sosyal tarım uygulamalarına ağırlık verilmesi gerektiği ve yoksulluk gibi önemli sosyal problemlerle mücadele etmek adına tarım sektörünün geliştirilmesi için tarımsal sosyal girişimcilerin varlığına ihtiyaç duyulduğu belirlenmiştir.Özgünlük/değer: Bu çalışma sosyal girişimciliğin diğer sektörlerde olduğu gibi tarım için de önemli bir faktör olduğunu ve kırsal kesimlerde yoksullukla mücadele konusunda önemli bir araç olduğunu ortaya koyması açısından değerlidir.
