    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[THE CODED LANGUAGE OF MOLANA BASED ON THE MOTIFS OF MOLAVI&#039;S STORIES IN MASNAVI]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Having a short hesitation in Masnavi-e-Molavi, we will notice that the main motifs of Masnavi&#039;s stories are the roaring springs of Koran and Islamic concepts which have been stated through coded language, which is the particular feature of Molavi&#039;s thought.  In this paper I have tried to study the motifs of Masnavi&#039;s stories carefully. First I have shown Molna&#039;s power on different Persian and Arabic verses and poses, and religious texts, then the focus is turned to this point that Molana sees his deductions more important than anything else, and he disregards the source and the form of the stories, where this deduction is stated through a magic and effective language by which his readers are charmed. The other point is that Molana has used Koran, Hadith books, interpretations, mythology, and anecdotes in his stories. Masnavi along with Molana&#039;s other stories are either his initiatives or his reinventions from oral and common culture , so the general result of Molana&#039;s language and particular statement in Persian poetry and mysticism become clear.    Keywords:  Molavi , Masnavi, stories, Semeiotics, coded language, recreating]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Collateral of the Rising Public Diplomacy in Turkey:  The Presidency of Religious Affairs and the Religious  Diplomacy]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[It has been widely discussed whether Turkish foreign policy has been  changing since the Justice and Development Party (AKP hereafter) came  into power in 2002. Among the new concepts which signal a probable  change in the foreign policy, “public diplomacy” seems to be a significant  one considering that AKP has even founded the Office of Public Diplomacy  in 2010 within the Turkish Prime Ministry. Public diplomacy, the task of  serving national interests through influencing foreign states’ peoples,  winning their hearts and minds, instrumentalizes a state’s traits and is  carried by many public institutions. Religion is one of the cultural traits of a  state which serves public diplomacy with its binding influence on public.  For a few decades, the terms “religious diplomacy”, “inter-religious  diplomacy” or “faith diplomacy” have been used to indicate the positive  impact of religion on diplomacy, especially on “public diplomacy” which  addresses public rather than the traditional diplomatic institutions.  Religious diplomacy has mainly two meanings. On the one hand, it means  establishing an interreligious dialogue between states and their societies.  On the other hand, it implies promoting religiously based relations with  other states and their societies sharing the same religion. In Turkey,  Presidency of Religious Affairs is the main carrier of religious diplomacy as  it has started be expressed by the Presidency itself. A closer look at the  campaigns and policies of the Presidency especially in the Balkans, Africa  and the Middle East in the last decade shows that it complements the  government’s public diplomacy establishing religious ties with the states  especially which have Muslim populations. The Presidency is organizing  humanitarian aid campaigns for Muslims suffering all around the world  while participating in the ones the government organizes. In press  releases, The Presidency addresses all people and all international  organizations to free the Muslims from poverty, injustice and violence. It  also regulates the education of the religious personnel who are to work  outside of the Turkish borders. The Presidency organizes international  programs for those willing to “construct a future based on their cultural origins” and “satisfy the religious, cultural, social and psychological needs  of the Muslims with their knowledge on Islamic theology.” Looking at the  campaigns, press releases, international programs, conferences, seminars  and the discourse used in these, the paper tries to show how the  Presidency cooperates with the government serving public diplomacy.  In this research, the aim is to stress the contribution of The Presidency of  Religious Affairs to the public diplomacy especially in the last decade. It can  be easily observed that aid campaigns for Muslim populations outside of  the border have become a major divisive issue and divided the Turkish  population into two as the ones willing to help poor Muslim people for the  sake of God and/or humanity and the ones criticizing this argument  insisting that Turkey has itself helpless people inside of its own borders.  The motivation of the presentation is to point out the insufficiency of the  discussion whether AKP unnecessarily engages with Muslim populations  outside of the Turkish borders. For a few decades, public diplomacy and  religious diplomacy as its complementary have been crucial tools in  international relations, and analyzing the AKP’s partaking in humanitarian  campaigns outside the borders without taking this viewpoint into  consideration would be fall short.  Therefore, the presentation intends to remark that The Presidency of  Religious Affairs with the religious diplomacy it carries has also been an  element in international relations for a while and analysis on AKP’s foreign  policy should also pay attention to this religious diplomacy dimension as a  part of public diplomacy strategy.  Keywords: Public Diplomacy, Religious Diplomacy, the Presidency of  Religious Affairs, the Justice and Development Party (AKP), Foreign Policy]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Communicative Approach and Its Applications in the Modern English Classes]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[In Communicative Language Teaching Approach, the aim of language teaching is to teach the communication process. However, the primary requirement for any communication is the existence of a meaningful input to be got across. If the necessary knowledge of a language is not obtained, then the desired communication may not be realized due to a lack of essential input. Thus, the structure of the target language should be known by speakers to a certain extend if they are non-native speakers of the target language as in the case of English as a Second/Foreign Language (EFL/ESL) learners in Turkey and Bosnia and Herzegovina. At this point the notions of language accusation and language learning step in as EFL/ESL learners may not have the opportunity to be exposed to the target language, in this case &quot;English&quot;, sufficiently. The reasons for this situation may vary according to the primary needs of the students, different educational beliefs and opportunities. In this paper three main topics are presented about Communicative Language Teaching Approach including the application of Communicative Language Teaching Approach in the modern English classes, the effects of this approach on students&#039; motivation and some activities based on CLT.   ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF CRIMEAN AND TURKISH LEGENDS: THE VALUE ASPECT]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Key words: Turkish legend, Crimean legends, universal values.  ABSTRACT  Crimea and Turkey have many similarities in terms of nature, traditions, and languages. Both Crimea and Turkey have a multicultural background of folklore. There are Turkic peoples (Crimean Tatars), Greeks, Armenians, Karaites in Crimea. Almost the same national structure exists in Turkey. There is a difficult political situation in Crimea because different ethnic groups cannot live in peace. Folklore, as an oral history and a mythological subconsciousness of nation, gave us productive material for the analysis of national problems and discovery of their solutions, so we believe that it will be possible to do the same research with Turkish legends. It is also important to find similarities and differences between Crimean and Turkish folklore, discovering the common motifs and analyzing why exactly these motifs are common between these cultures. Investigating common values of different nations is of great importance for this research. The crisis of modern culture appeals for search of universal values. It is especially productive for the studying of legends from different nations which live in one cultural space, such as Crimea and Turkey. The analysis of the variants of legends from various people or different times can give fruitful results. The study of legends from different nationalities can help the identification of value preference horizontally and the study of legends from one culture, but in a different time, will give value preference vertically.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Comparative Analysis of Economic and Social Performances of  Transition Economies and the Case of Bosnia-Herzegovina]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Transition economies have undergone an enormous transformation since 1989-  1991. After the recession of the early 1990’s, some of these economies experienced a GDP  recovery, at a different pace, with different outcomes in terms of economic growth and social  performance (human development, employment, poverty, etc.). This paper tries to analyze the  level of human capital for Transition Economies by comparative methods. In order to analyze  level of human capital for Transition Economies, we used the human development indexes.  Transition economies progress in the transition process has different effects due to internal and  external factors. The human development level in transition economies is relatively high in  spite of a huge recession and very poor economic performance, thanks to previous investments  made in social dimensions by previous regimes. In fact, economic performance would suggest  worse human development levels. Nevertheless, the transition process influenced the nonincome  dimensions of people, often worsening the main indicators. Among the countries of  Central and Eastern Europe, Bosnia and Herzegovina is the ninth position as far as HDI rank  is concerned, just above Macedonia and Albania. BiH in aggregate human development terms  is continuing to progress. Its HDI score now places it at the lower band of the most developed  countries in the world.]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[THE COMPARATIVE STUDY OF KURDISH, BOSNIAN PROVERBS]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Having been derived from the oral literature, proverbs are short, rhythmic and popular sentences which contain wisdom, truth, moral and traditional views in a fixed and metaphoric form. Every nation’s oral literature has a rich collection of proverbs which have been accepted by both scientists and common people as the valuable abstracts of life experiences.  One can often understand the nations’ magnificence of thought and the quality of social genuineness along with their literary talent through studying the proverbs. The purpose of the current research is to compare the proverbs of Kurdish and Bosnian languages to find similarities and the reasons of these similarities and differences. The results show that the similarities and differences of these languages’ proverbs are due to similarities and differences in ideas, religions, beliefs, life experiences, social and cultural issues and so on.

    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[Intermediary firms are authorized by the Board of Capital Markets to do capital market operations on the behalf of the investors in the capital markets. Brokerage firms provide services to the investors and are joint-stock companies. These institutions undertake the intermediary position between investors and capital market and also inform the investors about the capital market movements. The shifting of the boundaries of the capital markets, economic globalization and increasing institutionalization has increased the importance of these institutions. In this study by using the financial statements of the five intermediary firms which are traded on the Istanbul Stock Exchange and classified as &#039;Intermediaries Institutions&#039; under the Public Disclosure Platform, the financial performance of these companies will be analyzed with the TOPSIS (Technique for Order Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution) method. Firstly financial ratios will be determined and then ratio analysis will be used in the financial performance measurement. Financial ratios will be calculated separately for each firm. These calculated ratios will be converted to a single score which shows the overall company performance by using the TOPSIS method. Finally, according to the scores show company performance the performance of companies will be ranked. In the study, for the period of 2009 - 2012 financial performance which comprises the four period’s comparisons will be done between the results obtained.    Keywords: Brokerage Firms, Performance Analysis, Financial Ratios, TOPSIS Method.     ]]></dcterms:abstract>

    <dcterms:title><![CDATA[The Compatibility of Dayton System for Bosnia and Herzegovina’s EU Accession]]></dcterms:title>
    <dcterms:abstract><![CDATA[This study seeks to produce a critical approach regarding the compatibility of Dayton system for Bosnia and Herzegovina’s EU accession in the framework of a new perspective for the future of Bosnia. Nowadays, EU accession became the most important foreign policy goal of Bosnia and Herzegovina in order to create a more operative state system and complete the country’s reformation process. Nevertheless, still the country’s complete system is based on the “Dayton regime” which was established in 1995. Needless to say that the main goal of the Dayton system was creating a self-sufficient Bosnia and Herzegovina for the following years. On the other hand, today it’s seen that the international community still has a very constitutive role over Bosnia and Herzegovina. A productive national economy, operative democracy and dialogue stage between the ethnic groups might be considered as the most important uncompleted issues of the post-war period. In particular, when we consider the fact that some of the constitutive countries of former Yugoslavia had completed their EU accession or they became an official candidate for EU; the importance of EU for Bosnia and Herzegovina can be much more understandable. The main argument of this paper is producing the incompliance of Dayton system for Bosnia and Herzegovina based on the fact that Dayton system in Bosnia and Herzegovina created a state which is dependent to the existence of international community over the region. Additively, a bipartite comparative approach will be used both between the pre and post Dayton terms and between Bosnia and Herzegovina and other EU member former Yugoslav countries.   Keywords: Bosnia and Herzegovina, Dayton Regime, International Community, EU Accession, Consolidation of Democracy]]></dcterms:abstract>
