    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Relationship between Affective Commitment (Ac) and  Organizational Citizenship Behavior (Ocb): A Study on  Public and Private Enterprises in Dinar District]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Meyer and Allen (1991) suggested a model of organizational commitment with  three dimensions: Affective commitment, continuance commitment and  normative commitment. The first one is related to willing to stay in  organizations. The employee wants to stay in his or her organization because  he or she loves his or her organization. Even if other organizations give better  job offers, they keep working in their organizations. So, this type of  organizational commitment is very important for organizations. Especially to  retain well-educated and hard-working human resources in organizations,  organizations must have employees that committed to their organizations by  affective.  Organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) can be defined as “the individual  behaviors not defined directly or clearly in formal reward system but  contribute to the organizational effectiveness”. Organ (1990) suggested a  model of organizational citizenship behavior with five dimensions:  Conscientiousness, altruism, civic virtue, sportsmanship, and courtesy.  The objective of this paper is to determine the relationship between affective  commitment (AC) and organizational citizenship behavior (OCB). The  importance of the study is great for especially enterprises operating in crisis.  Employees committed to their organizations by affective and acting OCB will  probably keep working in the same organization even if there is economic  crisis.  The area of the study is public and private enterprises in Dinar district of  Afyonkarahisar. The samples will be selected from the population by the  method of decisional sampling.  To determine the relationship between affective commitment and  organizational citizenship behavior, the analysis of regression and correlation  will be performed. The data will be entered into the Statistics Program of  Social Sciences and processed. Finally, the findings, conclusions and  recommendations will be presented. ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Bosnia and Herzegovina - Turkey Relations: Aid  Perspective]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Turkey’s existence in Balkans dates back to centuries. As of this long  historical background Turkey has still strong ties with the Balkan countries  in general and particularly the population that are described as friend and  / or relative communities. In this respect, Bosnia and Herzegovina has a  special place in Turkish approach not only in terms of foreign policy but  also public point of view. Resulting from its crucial importance, Bosnia and  Herzegovina has always been a preferential region by Turkish decisionmakers  and considered one of the highest priorities of Turkish aid policy.  Turkey, which is a re-emerging donor and power at the region, tries to use  the assistance factor as a diplomacy instrument. Therefore this paper does  mainly focus on the role of Turkish aid in the bilateral relations. By  summarizing the cooperation and aid affairs at the late Ottoman period,  the article rather enlightens the post - independence years of the country.  While the study aims to briefly touch on the theoretical aspect of aid  instrument on one hand, it also scrutinizes both the characteristics and the  effectiveness of Turkish aid, on the other hand. When the past two decade  is taken into consideration, no doubt that Turkish International  Cooperation and Coordination Agency (TİKA) has put an appearance as the  institutional base for Turkish assistance. As TİKA has officially been  declared the national coordinator agency for Turkish foreign assistance by  2005, TİKA’s role is analysed under the selected aid activities. By using  these prominent examples, the article tends to reflect their impact to  bilateral relations and the perception in Bosnia and Herzegovina in this  context. How efficient was the Turkish aid to the country and what should  be done for a better cooperation are the basic problematic areas to be  handled. In order to contribute to the on-going altruistic efforts so far, the  paper points out a set of ideas which may give concrete results in  optimizing the current affairs.  Keywords: Aid Policy, Balkans, Bosnia and Herzegovina, TİKA, Turkey.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Impact of Infrastructure Investments on Regional  Economic Performance: A Meta-Analysis]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Today, the notion of regional competition shapes regional economic  policies, and these policies improve regions’ competitive power, in  addition to channelizing the resources into the underdeveloped regions  and supporting some of the activities in underdeveloped regions.  Infrastructure investments, which can be evaluated as among these policy  instruments, can be a determining factor in the choice of the facility  location and can increase the output as well as private sector investments  through increase in private capital and labour productivity. Furthermore,  increase in public infrastructure investment expenditures will promote the  demand through the multiplier impact in the short term and price  decreases caused by the productivity improvement in infrastructure  investments in the long term; this demand impact will cause an increase in  the whole production and employment. At the same time, public  infrastructure investments afford cities, regions, and nations the  opportunity to improve their competitive structures, due to the fact that  they are able to decrease transportation and production costs.  Gramlich (1994: 1177) defines infrastructure investments as natural  monopolies that require large capital intensity, such as highway and other  transportation means, water and drainage lines, and communication  systems and also alternatively defines and stresses that it is necessary to  focus on the tangible capital stock possessed by the public sector. The  expanded version of this definition also includes human capital as well as  research and development investments. These types of infrastructure  investments enable public policies to influence the long-term growth and  productivity at the regional level. Particularly following the study of  Aschaur (1989), many studies have been done in order to determine the  impacts of different infrastructure types on national and regional economic  growth by using various ways and methods. Some of these studies, that were done particularly since 1990s, mentioned that economic and social  infrastructure investments directly impact (or indirectly impact through  externalities) regional output, private sector investments, costs, and  employment. Studies also showed that these investments increased the  competitive power of regions.  In this study, the impact of infrastructure investments on regional  economic performance has been investigated by using the meta-analysis  methodology. Meta-analysis is a method used for quantitatively aggregate  primary research studies in a particular field. A large collection of primary  studies from a particular body of literature is surveyed in accordance with  predefined coding protocols and procedures. Studies included in a metaanalysis  need to be empirical and should examine similar and/or same  constructs and relationships. In the current study, we have examined the  relationship between infrastructure investments and regional economic  performance thus included the studies that examined this relationship. In  order to identify the sample of primary studies, we have initially searched  the bibliography of previously published review studies on the same topic.  We have also searched online databases for identifying the sample papers.  This process yielded 87 numbers of studies, which were then reduced to 70  due to the inadequate data. The papers will be coded based on certain  study characteristics, and then the data analysis will be done using SPSS  statistical software package.  Keywords: Public Infrastructure Investments, Private Investments,  Regional Income, Regional Economic Performance, Meta-Analysis.]]></dcterms:abstract>

Social security,  poverty, unemployment, economic uncertainty about the future and old  age and illness that may occur due to the social dangers which includes  measures to eliminate or alleviate the negative.  Re-distribution of income in the fiscal policy of the State to intervene using  the tools of fiscal policy objectives is included. In this respect, the state,  directly affect the distribution of income through the tax system and the  secondary distribution of income transfer performs. In addition, public  expenditures for social services and their financing for the development of  infrastructure for the distribution of income through public revenues  collected direct.

Despite their narrow and intense mutual  economic and political contacts in the process of globalization, each of  them try to defend the interests of its own members. The European  Commission has expressed its intentions and interests in New business  strategy, introduced in November 2010.

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[Economic Crisis and Social Issues - The use of Islam by  French politicians]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[In our paper we aim to analyze how French parties use the rhetoric of  social life problematiques during economic crisis and try to avoid direct  responsability. Among the social problematiques we will focus on  especially the issues relating to Islam as Muslims are among the most used  rhetorics while economic crisis in Europe.  According to the archives of Le Monde since the year 2000 the use of the  term Islam is much higher than the use of the word Christianity and  Judaism. The same applies to the use of the word Muslim which is higher  than Christian or Jew. We find out the similar tendencies in Le Parisien, the  journal which is mostly sold in France. Islam is mostly cited term among  the religions which is unproportional to its presence in France. This shows  that Islam overpasses purely religious aspects and includes more than  other religions when it comes to its media visibility.  French politicians use the different social problems in a critical situations.  Islam is one of these easy scapegoats that is oftenly utilized by politicians  in their difficulties. This shows that from one side Islam and Muslims are  very weak in France which are unable to defend, but from the other part, it  becomes a necessary tool for all parties to participate willingly or  unwillingly on the debate related to Islam. Our work will be based on two  steps: firstly, we focus on the main critical events related to Islam in France  and analyze the positions of the main parties. Afterwards, we observe their  approaches to Islam and compare their methods and outcomes.  We believe that, economic difficulties could be resolved, but social impacts  of the crisis may remain for the decades.  Keywords: Economic Crisis, Islam, Christianity, Judaism, Europe.]]></dcterms:abstract>
