Elektronik Atıkların Türkiye’deki Yolculuğu
(Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2025) Tosun Tüfekçioğlu, Meral; İletişim Bilimleri
The rapid advancement and widespread adoption of technology in contemporary society not only facilitate
our daily lives but also significantly exacerbate the problem of electronic waste (e-waste). E-waste is closely
associated with devices such as computers, televisions, tablets, and especially smartphones. These devices,
commonly referred to as Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs), are continuously being
discarded on a global scale, leading to an increasing accumulation of e-waste on our planet. As a
consequence of the capitalist consumer culture and planned obsolescence policies, ICTs are often disposed
of prematurely. Once they become e-waste, these devices are frequently transported from developed
countries to the Global South, where cheap labor is abundant. This mobility of e-waste has resulted in the
formation of e-waste “mountains” in disadvantaged regions of densely populated countries such as India
and China, thereby posing significant threats to human, animal, and ecosystem health in those areas. ICTs
can also be referred to as media devices; thus, the concepts of media geology and digital garbology were
employed to analyze e-waste within the scope of this study.
Drawing on international e-waste literature, the study investigated the dynamics of e-waste movement in
Turkey. In this context, in-depth interviews were conducted with recycling companies, municipalities, and
a large-scale enterprise operating in the Marmara Region, specifically in the provinces of Istanbul, Kocaeli,
Bursa, and Yalova.
The findings indicate that Turkey exhibits patterns similar to international e-waste flows, particularly
regarding unregistered (informal) e-waste. Due to Turkey’s economic and political position and its
relationship with the European Union, the management of institutional e-waste is largely regulated and
recorded. However, the local culture of scrap dealing (hurdacı) can contribute to informal e-waste activities.
Tracking of household e-waste is effectively unfeasible; this finding concretizes Parikka’s concept of
“Zombie Media” within the field. The scrap dealer culture exacerbates the risks of informal household e
waste flows. Issues such as environmental justice, digitalization, the climate crisis, and the inequalities
driven by e-waste were not sufficiently articulated by study participants. This phenomenon is discussed as
reflecting both the non-random, invisible materiality of ICTs and the persistent perception that “technology
is clean.” While there are notable similarities between Turkey and the Global South in terms of informality,
the e-waste movement in Turkey is not as destructive as it is in many Global South countries. In summary,
due to their complex structures, e-waste flows in Turkey bear significant resemblance to international e
waste flows.
Sosyal Medya Influencer Hesaplarında Siber Zorbalık
(Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2025) Donikyan, Denis; İletişim Bilimleri
Cyberbullying is a broad form of violence that began to be defined and discussed with the rise of the internet in our lives. This concept, which can be encountered in all areas of the internet, has in recent years found a place within social media, a domain that has become one of the first things that come to mind when thinking about the internet. In the context of cyberbullying, where social media users can be both the perpetrators and the victims, one group that stands out as victims are social media influencers. Social media influencers are individuals who, due to the identities they adopt and the profiles they build on these platforms, have the ability to interact with large audiences. While this interaction can have positive outcomes, it also brings negative consequences. One of the most prominent negative outcomes is cyberbullying activities.
This study focuses on the forms of cyberbullying that social media influencers are subjected to through their online interactions. The research will be conducted by analyzing comments directed at 3 different social media influencers over a 5 period using the method of digital ethnography. Through observation and analysis of the data collected, themes of cyberbullying will be identified. This study aims to understand how cyberbullying, which takes various forms and contents across the internet, is specifically practiced in the context of social media influencers.
Türkiye'deki Büyük Ölçekli Altyapı Projelerinde Arkeolojik Miras Etki Değerlendirme Çalışmalarına Yönelik Yeni Yaklaşım ve Öneriler: Ankara-Niğde Otoyolu Projesi Örneği
(Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2025) Dağ, Haydar Uğur; Arkeoloji
The archaeological cultural heritage inventory of Türkiye has not yet been completed. Many archaeological heritage assets across the Anatolian geography remain buried and undocumented. Construction and infrastructure projects pose a significant threat primarily to those archaeological heritage assets that have not yet been identified. Currently, there is no established or widely applied archaeological heritage impact assessment framework in Türkiye for identifying and evaluating the impacts of large- or small-scale infrastructure and construction projects on archaeological heritage. This gap frequently leads to the destruction or severe damage of undocumented and unregistered archaeological heritage assets located within project impact zones—sites that lack legal protection due to the absence of official identification or registration processes. In addition, projects with inadequate heritage impact assessments can cause archaeological assets to be removed from their geographic and sociocultural contexts, leaving them isolated. This not only hinders future scientific research but also makes the monitoring and enforcement of conservation conditions significantly more difficult. The following conclusions were reached from this doctoral thesis:
• The historical and current state of archaeological heritage impact assessment practices in Türkiye in the context of infrastructure and construction projects were reviewed to identify their strengths and weaknesses.
• The past and present archaeological heritage impact assessment practices implemented in developed countries within similar project frameworks were evaluated to identify the key strengths and limitations of those systems.
• A new “archaeological heritage impact assessment methodology” compatible with Türkiye’s legal framework and can be applied across infrastructure and construction projects was developed and presented as a conclusion of this thesis.
Değişen Sınırlar Arasında Vidin Kalesi: Organizasyon, Yapılanma ve Askerî Stratejiler (1700-1736)
(Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2025) Üzden, Anıl; Tarih
Located on the right bank of the Danube River, Vidin is presently within the borders of Bulgaria. Owing to its strategic location, the city frequently changed hands and came under Ottoman rule in 1396. It was incorporated into the Ottoman administrative system as a sanjak and functioned as a frontier city (serhad şehri). With the expansion of the Ottoman Empire in the Balkans, Vidin remained within the interior borders of the empire. However, this situation changed due to developments in the 18th century. Following the Treaty of Karlowitz in 1699 and the resulting territorial losses, Vidin's strategic significance was once again brought to the forefront. The Treaty of Passarowitz in 1718 reestablished Vidin as a frontier city. In response to new needs, Vidin Fortress was expanded with significant effort, akin to the construction of an entirely new fortification. The increase in the number of military personnel further accentuated the military character of the city. The aim of this study is to examine the military structuring, strategic significance, and organizational policies of Vidin as it transformed into a frontier city following the Treaty of Passarowitz, in the context of developments that took place after the Treaty of Karlowitz.
Çatalhöyük’ün Süprematist Yaklaşımlar ile Yorumlanması
(Güzel Sanatlar Enstitüsü, 2025) Sertkaya, Ferit Cihat; Seramik ve Cam
This study examines the relationship between Çatalhöyük architecture and the Suprematism art movement from an interdisciplinary perspective. Çatalhöyük is one of the most important settlements of the Neolithic period and draws attention with its modular and geometric layout. The adjacent order of the structures reflects a certain mathematical and geometric order. Suprematism, developed by Kazimir Malevich in the early 20th century, is defined as a movement that aims for absolute abstraction in art, with geometric forms and pure colors at the forefront. In this context, the study examines the formal and conceptual similarities between the architectural order of Çatalhöyük and the Suprematist understanding of art. As a result of the comparisons made, it has been observed that basic geometric forms are dominant in both formations, abstract forms of expression are at the forefront, and spatial organization is based on a certain order. The modular order understanding seen in Çatalhöyük architecture overlaps with the geometric composition principles encountered in Suprematist works of art. It is thought that Çatalhöyük architecture is similar to the Suprematist aesthetic understanding and that this relationship allows for the development of new interpretations in the disciplines of art and architecture.
The study aims to include personal ceramic applications by addressing the relationships between Suprematism and Çatalhöyük architecture in terms of form, order and abstraction. In addition, it aims to develop an original interpretation of the relationships between different fields of art by addressing the interaction of ceramic art with other art disciplines from an interdisciplinary perspective.
