Tolerance, Mıgratıon And Hybrıd Identities: Normative Reasoning Of Intercultural Dialogue In A Blurring Structure

The aim of this study is to proof the argument – i.e. ‘there are significant linkages amongst tolerance, hybrid identities and migration.’ These linkages can be comprehended by means of conceptualising extensions of hybrid identities in aggregate trans/inter-migration processes. It can be put forward that arising hybrid identities are embedded in a blurring structure of thoughts, beliefs, states of affairs, facts, belongings and so forth. From multiculturalism and cosmopolitanism viewpoints, it is argued that tolerance and migration ought to be analysed in frame of sociology of law, human rights, international migration law, and of course the European Union law. So far, normative arguments and soft law approaches are very much well integrated with social aspects of migration, tolerance, identity and culture. In this context, the study examines to what extent cultural and human components are protected by law in multiple levels from an interdisciplinary perspective. In this framework, it is crucial to raise the research enquiries: What are possible criteria for the limits of tolerance? To what extent tolerance is related to human rights and morality? What ought to be the limit of tolerance towards hybrid identities in multicultural and cosmopolitan societies? In a consistent manner, the criteria and standards developed by some leading scholars were reconstructed and discussed throughout this paper. These criteria and standards are both moral (part of a universal system of morality) and legal (international, supranational, or national – i.e. constitutional). In order to apply such standards their validity was discussed (i.e. the respective normative power has the norms at the various levels). In the case of morals, their difference to particular ethnic systems was established (i.e. criteria by which the two can be distinguished). Then the research argument was elaborated on whether and how the legal standards comply with the moral standards, how national standards comply with supranational or international standards. Likewise, the study highlights the crucial contributions of “World Society and World System Paradigms” that are associated with social space, global civil society, cosmopolitanism, ethnic diversity, cultural hybridity, human rights activism and public sphere. Recent debates in Refugee Studies (e.g. Syrian Refugee Crisis, Dual and Multiple Citizenship Issues and so forth) highlight the fact that the European Union needs to consider new aspects of tolerance for hybrid identities and tolerate cultural rights of hybrid identities, create cohesion in communities and establish intercultural dialogue amongst home-states and host-states. Sanguinely, the efforts of hybrid identities are strengthening the relations between home-host states and these ought to attract some considerable attention. The authors of this study hope that their endeavours may contribute somewhat towards that

On Nonoscillatory Solutions of Two-Dimensional Nonlinear Dynamical Systems

During the past years, there has been an increasing interest in studying oscillation and nonoscillation criteria for dynamical systems on time scales that harmonize the oscillation and nonoscillation theory for the continuous and discrete cases in order to combine them in one comprehensive theory and eliminate obscurity from both. We not only classify nonoscillatory solutions of two-dimensional systems of first-order dynamic equations on time scales but also guarantee the existence of such solutions using the Knaster, Schauder-Tychonoff and Schauder’s fixed point theorems. The approach is based on the sign of components of nonoscillatory solutions. A short introduction to the time scale calculus is given as well. Examples are significant in order to see if nonoscillatory solutions exist or not. Therefore, we give several examples in order to highlight our main results for the set of real numbers R, the set of integers Z and qN0 = {1, q, q2, q3, …}, q >1, which are the most well-known time scales

Optimization of broaching design

Broaching is one of the most recognized machining processes that can yield high productivity and high quality when applied properly. One big disadvantage of broaching is that all process parameters, except cutting speed, are built into the broaching tools. Therefore, it is not possible to modify the cutting conditions during the process once the tool is manufactured. Optimal design of broaching tools has a significant impact to increase the productivity and to obtain high quality products. In this paper, an optimization model for broaching design is presented. The model results in a non-linear non-convex optimization problem. Analysis of the model structure indicates that the model can be decomposed into smaller problems. The model is applied on a turbine disc broaching problem which is considered as one of the most complex broaching operations

Existence and Asymptotic Behaviors of Nonoscillatory Solutions of Third Order Time Scale Systems

Nonoscillation theory with asymptotic behaviors takes a significant role for the theory of three-dimensional (3D) systems dynamic equations on time scales in order to have information about the asymptotic properties of such solutions. Some applications of such systems in discrete and continuous cases arise in control theory, optimization theory, and robotics. We consider a third order dynamical systems on time scales and investigate the existence of nonoscillatory solutions and asymptotic behaviors of such solutions. Our main method is to use some well-known fixed point theorems and double/triple improper integrals by using the sign of solutions. We also provide examples on time scales to validate our theoretical claims

Modeling of broaching for optimization purposes

High productivity and high quality can be achieved in broaching if the process is applied properly. Roughing, semi-finishing and finishing can be performed in one stroke of the tool increasing productivity and reducing set-up time. Furthermore, high quality surface finish can be obtained due to straight motion of the tool. One big disadvantage of broaching is that all process parameters, except cutting speed, are built into broaching tools. Therefore, it is not possible to modify cutting conditions during the process once the tool is manufactured. Improved design of broaching tools needs detailed modeling and analysis of the broaching process. In this thesis, tool optimization method and process models are presented. Cutting forces, tooth stresses, part deflections are modeled and analyzed using cutting models and FEA. The results of the analysis are summarized in analytical forms so that they can be used for different cases although in this thesis turbine disc broaching is considered as the application which is one of the most complex broaching operations. The developed models are implemented into a simulation program and the force, power, tooth stress and part deflection predictions are presented. The broach tool design is improved. Applications of the model for improved tool design are demonstrated by examples

From certainty of error to dialectic of defeat: Sociological and metaphysical causes of dominance in İbn Arabi and Ibn Khaldun

Hem İbnü’l-Arabî’nin âlemi, hem de İbn Haldun’un umranı illet ve nispetler etrafında dönen gürültülü bir ilişkiler ağıdır. Bu ilişkiler düzeninin doğası ve bünyesi hakkında yaptıkları yorumlar, iki farklı düşünürün izledikleri dünya resmi arasındaki kontrastı görmeye imkân sunar. Bu anlamda İbnü’l-Arabî ve İbn Haldun tek bir medeniyetin çocuğu olsalar da seyrettikleri manzarayı resmedişleri farklılık arz eder. Her iki düşünürün ele aldığı herhangi bir ortak konuya bakıldığında, kavramsal ve terminolojik dünyanın, açıklama çerçevesini nasıl değiştirdiği hemen fark edilecektir. İbnü’l-Arabî’nin izlediği resim bütün boyutları ile âlem iken, İbn Haldun’un çerçevesi toplumsal umrandır. Bu makale iki farklı düşünürün yaklaşımlarını mukayese etmek için “yenmek ve yenilmek” konulu yorum güzergâhını temel izlek olarak belirler. Biri yenilgi olgusunu bilgi, kudret, tasdik, inanç kesinliği, tenzih, teşbih, şirk, tevhid, vahdet, kesret, nusret, sarsıntı, gedik gibi terminolojik seçimlerle inşa ederken, diğeri galebe, istila, tagallüb, hâkimiyet, cesaret, vahşet/yabanilik, asabiyyet, bedevi-hadari topluluk kavramları etrafında değerlendirir.Both Ibn al-Arabi’s universe and Ibn Khaldun’s prosperity are a loud network of relations that revolve around reason and spites. The interpretations they make about the nature and structure of these relations allow us to see the contrast between the worlds of two different thinkers. In this sense, although Ibn al-Arabi and Ibn Khaldun are the children of a single civilization, their depictions of the scenery they watch are different. When we look at any common subject that both are interested in, it will immediately be noticed how the conceptual and terminological world has changed the frame of explanation. While Ibn al-Arabi’s picture is a universe with all its dimensions, the frame of Ibn Khaldun is the social prosperity. This article sets out the route of comment on “defeating and being defeated” as the main path in order to compare the approaches of two different thinkers. While one constructs the case of defeat with terminological choices such as knowledge, ability, confirmation, acuity of belief, exonerate, similitude, polytheism, tawhid, unity, abundance, the help of god, concussion, breach, the other uses the concepts of predominance, invasion, oppression, dominance, courage, wildness/savagery, social solidarity, bedouin-ḥaḍar community

Muhyî-İ Gülşenî’nin Siret-İ Murâd-I Cihân’ında Medenî Hikmet Tasavvuru

Aristo’dan Nasîruddin Tûsî’ye kadar gelen amel-i hikmet geleneğinin Osmanlı ahlakî-siyâsî düşünce dünyasındaki en önemli iki temsilcisi Kınalızâde Ali Efendi ve Muhyî-î Gülşenî’dir. Her ikisi de Tûsî’nin Ahlâk-ı Nâsırî’sine dayanan eserler kaleme almışlardır. Muhyî-î Gülşenî’nin eseri olan Sîret-i Murâd-ı Cihân önceki birikimi takip ederek amelî hikmetin kaynağına insanî tabiatı yerleştirir. Buradan hareketle de siyasetin temel problemini, insanın toplumsal fiilleri ve bu fiillerin yetkinleşme süreçleri olarak değerlendirir. İnsanın yetkinleşmesi için gerekli sosyal organizasyonlara ve bunların teşekkülü için gerekli ilkelere işaret eder. Çeşitli toplum ve şehir örgütlenmeleri içerisinden, faziletli şehir fikrini öne çıkararak, bu şehrin yönetim kriterinin düşünce merkezli olduğuna vurgu yapar. Bu çalışma, pratik felsefe açısından yöneten ve yönetilen arası ilişkilere, toplum tabakalarına, yönetim biçimlerine bir Osmanlı düşünürünün nasıl yaklaştığına ve medenî hikmet ilminin ana temalarının Gülşenî’deki izlerine ışık tutmayı hedeflemektedirThe two most important representatives of the tradition of political philosophy, coming from Aristotle to Nasîruddin Tûsî are Kınalızâde Ali Efendi and Muhyî-î Gülşenî in the world of Ottoman ethical-political thought. Both of them penned works that based on Ahlâk-ı Nâsırî of Tûsî. Sîret-i Murâd-ı Cihân which is a work of Muhyî-î Gülşenî, by following its previous accumulation, places the human nature in the source of practical philosophy. From this point of view, it evaluates the fundamental problem of politics as social acts of the people and as maturity processes of these acts. It refers to the necessary social organizations for the maturation of the people and to the necessary principles for the formation of these. It emphasizes that the management criteria of this city is thinking-centered by putting forward the idea of virtuous city from inside of the various community and city organizations. This study aims at clearing up how an Ottoman thinker approaches t

Investigating sex, masculinity and femininity in relation to impulsive driving and driving anger expression

Human factors constitute a class of prominent road safety related factors. In the present study, human factors of driving were studied by investigating sex differences and gender roles in relation to impulsive driving and driving anger expression. A total of 425 drivers between the ages of 18 and 56 (M = 25.46, SD = 7.58) participated to the study and completed a series of questionnaires including a demographic information form, the Bem Sex Roles Inventory, the Impulsive Driver Behaviour Scale and the Driving Anger Expression Inventory. According to the ANCOVA results, male drivers showed higher functional impulsivity, lack of premeditation and use of the vehicle to express anger than female drivers. Additionally, hierarchical regression analyses showed that masculinity was positively associated with functional impulsivity, urgency and the dimensions of aggressive anger expression. However, femininity was positively associated with functional impulsivity and adaptive/constructive anger expression, but negatively associated with the di mensions of dysfunctional impulsivity and aggressive anger expression. Overall, the results showed the significant solo effects of masculinity and femininity on impulsive driver behaviours and driving anger expression, over and above the effects of sex, and the interaction between sex and gender roles. In the present study, previously reported findings indicating the relationships between sex and gender roles and driving anger expression were supported and extended by providing the literature with the contribution of answering the question how sex and gender roles are related to impulsive driver behaviours. The findings of the two related concepts of impulsive driving and driving anger expression were discussed in light of the current literature. Contribu tions, implications and future research directions concerning road safety practices were presented
