    Four years after the French Revolution, in 1793 a series of wars among France and other major powers of Europe began and they lasted until 1815. There is disagreement among economic historians about the effects of these wars on the trend of US economic growth. This paper aims to answer the following question. Did America as a neutral nation take advantage of economic possibilities caused by Europe at war through trade? To put it differently, this paper questions whether there was an export-led growth due to the war. To answer this question, we re-examined the export-led growth hypothesis for the period 1790-1860 using the ARDL methodology. Based on this methodology, a cointegrated relationship is found among the variables of real GDP, labor, exports and exchange rates. The results suggest that the economic growth of the US was not export-driven. In addition, parallel to the results of unit root tests with structural breaks, the coefficient of the dummy variable was statistically significant in the long run, implying that the war did have a significant effect on the economic growth trend of the US

    The determination of actions on structures is an important step of in the design process. In nature, so many outer and inner actions are acting on structures continuously. The two most important ones of those actions are the earthquake and wind actions. For some structures, i.e. towers, high chimneys or lighting towers, the priority of these two severe actions can change. Wind forces can become a governing force on the design of these structures. Therefore, the determination of wind forces for these tall, slender and wind-sensitive structures becomes very important. Also, these tall and slender structures have a high ratio of height to least diameter that makes them more slender and wind-sensitive than any other structures. In this study, the determination of wind loads for a selected and modeled stadium lighting tower was given according to Eurocode 1 which is an international well-known standard. This study showed that it is difficult to calculate wind loads of stadium lighting towers according to Eurocode 1 because of the complexity of the document, insufficient explanation of some formulas like resonant response factor and unclear graph sections for the reader. This study is believed to enlighten the way of the users of Eurocode 1

    Evaporative Drying of Low-Rank Coal

    Low-rank coals including the brown and the subbituminous coals are commonly known to contain high moisture content (up to 65%, wet basis), which limits their utilization around the world in spite of their low cost. Today, the most of the drying technologies are based on the evaporation of the water from the moist product. In this chapter, the most effective parameters on the evaporative coal-drying process are investigated with the data in the recent literature. The effective parameters are evaluated in three categories as follows: (1) the parameters about the drying media (the type of the media, the temperature, the pressure, the velocity and the relative humidity), (2) the coal parameters (the type of the coal and the size) and (3) the drying method

    REVIEW OF THE TALE “BACI BACI CAN BACI” ACCORDING TO VLADIMIR PROPP'S "FAIRY TALE ANALYSIS" METHOD

    There were many narrative types in the oral tradition period when there was no written culture. One of these is the fairy tales that form the language, cultural and value judgments of the society. Fairy tales, which have an important function in the education of children today, have survived until today by being told by a narrator. As a result of research conducted both in the world and in Turkey, many fairy tales have been unearthed so far. Fairy tales, told in different ways from region to region and from region to region, vary in this respect. The imaginary elements in fairy tales, in which we can see the characteristics of the society in which they were created, are important in that they reflect the beliefs and common views that have an impact on societies. Fairy tales continue to exist today through broadcast media such as cinema and television, and they have an important place in the mental development of young children, especially. As a result of the studies carried out so far, different classifications have been made on fairy tales and tales have been divided into categories. Many researchers, especially in Europe, have conducted studies on folk narratives. Many approaches and opinions have been put forward, especially on the structure and typology of fairy tales. One of these studies belongs to Vladimir Propp, who examined the structure of fairy tales. With his work, he tried to analyze the structure of fairy tales within the framework of morphology and by formulating the structural scheme of tales, he determined that there are 31 functions in fairy tales. In this study, after mentioning Vladimir Propp's morphological method, the tale named "Bacı Bacı Can Bacı", one of the Turkish tales, will be examined according to Vladimir Propp's tale analysis method, and the functions of the tale will be determined, and its basic structure will be revealed.  Article visualizations

    The primary purpose of this study is to determine the mediating role of trust in the manager in the effect of the perception of gender equality on sexual harassment reporting in the workplace. This research is a relational survey model based on the quantitative research method. It has been determined that participants\u27 perceptions of gender equality had a significant and positive effect on sexual harassment reporting and trust in managers. Also, a positive effect of trust in the manager on sexual harassment reporting was determined. Trust in the manager plays a mediating role in the effect of perception of gender equality on sexual harassment reporting in the workplace, implying that sexual harassment reporting in the workplace has cultural roots, such as the perception of gender equality, and trust in the manager predicts this perception.Svrha ovog istraživanja je prije svega utvrditi posredničku ulogu povjerenja u rukovoditelja u učinku percepcije rodne ravnopravnosti na prijavu seksualnog uznemiravanja na radnome mjestu. Riječ je o modelu relacijskog istraživanja koje se temelji na kvantitativnoj istraživačkoj metodi. Utvrđeno je da su percepcije sudionika o ravnopravnosti spolova imale značajan pozitivan učinak na prijavu seksualnog uznemiravanja i povjerenje u rukovoditelja. Osim toga, utvrđen je pozitivan učinak povjerenja u rukovoditelja na prijavu seksualnog uznemiravanja. Povjerenje u rukovoditelja ima posredničku ulogu u učinku percepcije rodne ravnopravnosti na prijavu seksualnog uznemiravanja na radnome mjestu. Ovaj rezultat pokazuje da prijava seksualnog uznemiravanja na radnome mjestu ima kulturološke korijene, kao što je percepcija rodne ravnopravnosti, a povjerenje u rukovoditelja predviđa tu percepciju

    Does climate change affect bank lending behavior?

    We examine how banks adjust credit supply in areas with higher exposure to climate risks by utilizing the province-level air pollution and loan growth data of a large emerging market, Turkey, following the Paris Agreement in 2015. Our results show that banks limit their credit extension to more polluted provinces in the post-agreement interval, implying that banks consider climate change-related risks and adjust their credit provisioning accordingly. Our baseline findings are intact against a myriad of robustness checks. We also find that the shift in the climate risk-credit provisioning nexus is asymmetric depending on the levels of air pollution.Publisher PDFPeer reviewe
