The Hemshin
The Hemshin are without doubt one of the most enigmatic peoples of Turkey and the Caucasus. As former Christians who converted to Islam centuries ago yet did not assimilate into the culture of the surrounding Muslim populations, as Turks who speak Armenian yet are often not aware of it, as Muslims who continue to celebrate feasts that are part of the calendar of the Armenian Church, and as descendants of Armenians who, for the most part, have chosen to deny their Armenian origins in favour of recently invented myths of Turkic ancestry, the Hemshin and the seemingly irreconcilable differences within their group identity have generated curiosity and often controversy. The Hemshin is the first ...
The State of the World's Children 2002
The theme of leadership in this publication is related to the role of governments and international institutions in protecting the well being of children. It is in three sections; the first "birth and broken promises", contrasts the reality of the life of a child born eleven years ago with the promises made at the World Summit for Children, held in New York in 1990. The section, "to change the world with children", looks at the way UNICEF has called attention to the plight of children. The last section, "actions that can change the world", concludes that investing in children is the best investment a country can make and that no country has made a leap to sustainable development without investing significantly in its children.
Archaeoseismology
The papers in this volume, which have sprung from collaboration between archaeologists and seismologists, investigate the social, historical and physical effects of ancient earthquakes. Sites where archaeological and historical evidence of palaeoseismic events is investigated include Mycenae, Late Helladic III Kynos, 13th century BC Tiryns and Late Minoan Crete. Others adopt a scientific approach to the effects of earthquakes such as the uplift of Greek coastal sites, the disappearance of Dioscuria and Sebastopolis in Colchis and the collapse of the Mycenaean palace system.

Mehmet Akif
Akif sadece Akif değildir. O bir ekol, dönem, çağ... kısacası başlı başına bir tarihtir. Akif'i tanımakla sadece onun kişisel, kronolojik hayat hikayesini değil, tarihin önemli bir dilimi olan 19. Yüzyılın okumasını da yapıyoruz aynı zamanda. Koca bir İmparatorluğun çöküşüne ve yeni bir Cumhuriyetin doğusuna tanıklık ediyoruz onun hayat hikayesi üzerinden. Geçmişle gelecek arasında sağlam bir köprü inşa ediyoruz böylece. Akif'in zor koşullar altında verdiği mücadelenin ve örnek kişiliğin anlaşılması ve özellikle genç kuşaklar tarafından rol model olarak benimsenmesi en büyük temennimizdir.
Managing the New Workforce
Millennials, the latest generation to enter the global workforce, are changing the face of employment. This volume represents the most up-to-date research on the changes and issues from an international cast of generational researchers. Shifting demographics around the world have created a unique historical phenomenon in which a large cohort of employees (i.e., post-war Baby Boomers) are nearing retirement, and a new cadre of younger workers are being recruited to replace them. These twenty-something year-olds, often referred to as ÔGen YÕ or Millennials, represent the workforce of the future and come with their own set of expectations, demands, and work habits. The contributors to this vo...
