Bu çalışma Türkiye’de bankacılık sektörünün sermaye yapısı belirleyicilerinin incelenerek sektörün ilişkili olduğu sermaye yapısı teorilerinin belirlenmesini amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaçla Türkiye’de faaliyet gösteren 14 bankanın 2002 ve 2020 yıllarını kapsayan veri seti düzenlenerek panel veri analizi yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Çalışmada sermaye yeterlilik oranı, kaldıraç ve mevduat/toplam kaynak oranları bağımlı değişken olarak, büyüme olanakları, varlık yapısı, likidite, büyüklük, aktif karlılık, öz kaynak karlılığı kur riski, kredi riski ve faiz riski değişkenleri bağımsız değişken olarak kullanılmıştır. Araştırma neticesinde SYO büyüklük, ROA ve faiz riski değişkenleri ile pozitif ilişkili, likidite, büyüme olanakları ve ROE ile negatif ilişkili olarak bulunmuştur. Kaldıraç oranları ise varlık yapısı, ROA, kredi riski ve faiz riski değişkenleri ile pozitif ilişkili, büyüme olanakları, büyüklük ve ROE ile negatif ilişikli olarak bulunmuştur. Ayrıca Türk bankacılık sektörünün sermaye yapısının genel itibariyle finansman hiyerarşisi teorileri ile uyumlu olduğu gözlemlenmiştir.

Bu çalışma tedarik zincirinde entegrasyonun işletmelerin operasyonel performansları üzerine etkisini belirlemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu kapsamda tedarik zinciri entegrasyonu iç ve dış entegrasyon olarak iki temel boyutta ele alınmıştır. İç entegrasyon boyutu ile işletmelerin iç birimleri arasındaki entegrasyon ifade edilmektedir. Dış entegrasyon ile işletmelerin hem ana tüketiciler hem de ana tedarikçiler ile entegrasyonu ifade edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada her iki boyutun da operasyonel performansa etkisi belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Bu amaçlar doğrultusunda hazırlanan anket formu 2020 yılı içerisinde, TRA1 bölgesi (Erzurum, Erzincan ve Bayburt) Organize Sanayi Bölgelerinde (OSB) faaliyet gösteren 115 işletme sahip ve yöneticilerine uygulanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonuçlarına göre, entegrasyonun bütün boyutları yani iç entegrasyon, ana tüketiciler ile entegrasyon ve ana tedarikçiler ile entegrasyon işletmelerin operasyonel performansları üzerinde olumlu bir etkiye sahiptir.

Air pollution occurs due to many reasons such as the rapid and irregular development of urbanization, the increase in the number of motor vehicles, the selection of unsuitable places for industrialization and the lack of adequate measures for waste gases, topographic and meteorological conditions. Air pollution directly threatens human health and can cause global problems such as climate change, depletion of the ozone layer, and acid rain. In order to prevent these, threshold values of air pollutants are determined in the international arena, and measures should be taken where the thresholds are exceeded. However, despite the international and national regulations, there is no success in preventing air pollution. In Turkey, air pollution is constantly on the agenda with the decisions of the Local Environment Board on an urban scale, but no solution can be found for this problem for many years. The issue is discussed in the axis of air pollution through non-decision-making and inaction. In order to overcome this lack of policy, the study aims to raise advocacy proposals for the reduction of air pollution in the context of the right to environment and the right to clean air in relation to the right to health. The research is cross- sectional and pollution data has been revealed as of 2010, and the decisions of the Local Environmental Board have been evaluated as of 2014. The current situation of local civil society was evaluated. In the light of the data provided by all these indicators, it has been concluded that the air pollution problem in Erzincan is related to the production of indecision, and that advocacy activities are necessary in Erzincan over the concept of the right to clean air in order to overcome this and solve the problem.

Olive production in the world is only made in certain regions. Turkey is one of the important olive producing countries thanks to taking place in the area where olive product is grown. The olive product produced in the Aegean, Marmara, Mediterranean, Southeastern Anatolia and Black Sea regions is an important product to be overemphasized as being an important export item and also being means of living for agricultural population in Turkey. Along with the increasing importance of both the olive oil and the table olive in parallel with the idea of healthy living, the importance of olive product in international trade has also increased. Therefore, Turkey's position in the world olive market and the evolution of this position over time will be examined in this study via network analysis. Network analysis has emerged as a popular tool in recent years to analyze international trade networks in both general and sectoral meaning. The fact that the indicators obtained as a result of the network analysis reveal the significance of the countries in international trade taking into account the overall trade relations in the network often has different results from the order of importance determined according to the countries' share in the world trade. In this sense, network indicators are regarded as more preferable than the first-degree indicators. In this study, Turkey's position in the global olive trade is examined by using bilateral export data over the period 1995-2015 via network tools. The findings of the study reveal that export impact of Turkey in this global network increases after 2000 but begins to decline after 2011. It is also found that the export impact of Turkey is affected by periodicity.

Regional disparities in the European Union in development are regarded as an important problem, while economic and social differences in the Union have increased with the fifth wave of enlargement. The European Union via this policy aims to develop and contribute to those regions by building a strong regional policy in order to ensure economic and monetary union and carry out the internal market perfectly, by giving support to underdeveloped countries and regions. In order to reduce those disparities, a significant part of the Union budget is allocated within the content of regional policy. Regional policy is considered as complementary to other common EU policies and has become a type of policy that is put into practice not only in member states but also in the harmonization of candidate and potential candidate countries. This study aims to analyse evolution and instruments of the EU’s Regional Policy. As a concluding remark, the regional disparities still exist and remain on the agenda as an important issue despite the important progress made within the context of regional policiy in the EU, and furthermore, the EU should make more efforts concerning the issue.
