Entrepreneurship, Growth, and Innovation
Entrepreneurship, Growth and Innovation provides comprehensive insight into the economics of entrepreneurship, claiming that this recently established discipline should establish a framework of analysis that integrates the understanding of the determinants and the effects of both entrepreneurship and innovation without neglecting the functioning of the inducement mechanisms. For this purpose, the book combines theoretical prescriptions and international empirical evidence. Contributions by some of the best known scholars in the field of the economics of entrepreneurship and innovation investigate whether the interrelationships between the forces that affect firm and industry dynamics and ultimately determine economic growth are subject to change across countries and over time. The analysis of different national cases puts forward that the relationship between entrepreneurship and growth via innovation is shaped by the context of country-specific institutions and industries, thereby providing hints for industrial and innovation policy.

K.A.Ç. Öldün Oğlum Bittin Sen
Sokak kavgasında tartışmalarında birbirini tanımayan tek milletiz herhalde. Önce tanışırız; “Kimsin ulan sen! Sen kimsin ula! lan sen kimsin?” Kendimizi de tanıtırız; “Sen benim kim olduğumu biliyor musun?” Bu tanışma faslından sonra da yapılacak vaatlerle devam ederiz; “Öldürürüm bitiririm seni, aklını alırım, harcarım seni, asarım, keserim, yatağından kaldırır, evinden aldırırım!” vs... Eyleme geçmeden önce de konuşmalar tamamlanır; “Öldün Oğlum, Bittin Sen!” Vs. Sonra ne olur, alttan alan olmaz yada araya giren olmazsa istenmeyen şeyler olması mümkündür. Kahramanımız Kenan Atilla Çırakoğlu’nun hikayesinde; bir sokağın başından sonuna kadar olan mesafede özetlenen hayatında, ömrü boyunca karşılaştığı, genelde istemeyerek hayatlarında dönüm noktası olmasından dolayı bir çok kişiden, sanki birbirleri arasında anlaşmışlar gibi “Öldün Oğlum, Bittin Sen!” naraları tehditleri işitmiştir. Bu maruz kaldığı naralar, tehditler sokak kavgası ağzı ile söylenmiş asılsız sözler midir? Yoksa bu tehditlerden birinin gerçeklik payı var mıdır?...

How the World Remade Hollywood
For decades, filmmakers worldwide have been remaking Hollywood movies in colorful ways. They've chronicled a singing and dancing Hannibal Lecter in India, star-crossed lovers aboard the doomed Nigerian ship Titanic, a Japanese expedition to the planet of the apes, and an uncivil war in Turkey between Captain America and a mobbed-up Spider-Man. Most of these films were low budget and many were unauthorized, but all of them were fantastic--and lately have begun to resurface thanks to cherry-picked YouTube clips. But why and how were they made in the first place? This book tells the little-known stories of the wily filmmakers who made an Italian 007 flick by casting Sean Connery's tradesman brother, produced a Turkish space opera by stealing a print of Star Wars for its effects footage, and transported a full-fledged Terminator to the present day--not from a post-apocalyptic future, but from the vibrant mythology of Indonesia. Their stories reveal more than mere imitations; they demonstrate the fascinating ways ideas evolve as they cross borders.

Asian Cinemas
The West’s current fascination with Asian cinema must be viewed in the context of a complex and often problematic relationship between Western scholars, students, viewers, and Asian films. This book examines a number of detailed case studies (such as the films of Ozu, Bruce Lee, Hong Kong and Turkish cinema, Hindi melodramas, Godzilla films, Taiwanese directors, and Fifth Generation Chinese cinema) and uses them to investigate the limitations of Anglo–U.S. theoretical models and critical paradigms. By engaging readers with familiar areas of critical discourse (such as postcolonial criticism, "national cinema," "genre," "authorship," and "stardom") the book aims to introduce within such contexts the "unfamiliar" case studies that will be explored in depth and detail.
