A Trip to the Moon to World War Z: A Hundred Years of Construction of the Savage in Science Fiction Movies

Yusuf Ziya Gökçek

Abstract: Science fiction cinema reproduces the self-centered recognition of the other and hierarchically coding the entities created in modern sci-fi novels originating from the 17th century. It makes the existence outside itself strange and freaky, but it prefers to leave its human essence in a tamable form. Colonialism transforms the space and human being affected by the disaster, which it tries to find, to a controllable level and a hegemonic power generation. In the study, it will be seen how a legacy has been transferred by appropriating the conventions of the science fiction tradition before itself, and how the genre has evolved from the past to the present will be examined with Van Dijk’s discourse analysis. It has been observed that Le Voyage dans la lune (Georges Méliès, 1902) and World War Z (Marc Forster, 2013) chosen as samples, which have more than a century among them, constantly produce the wild/ savage. The most fundamental rhetoric of Science Fiction and colonial politics is to clarify the distinction between us and the other, to establish a hierarchical sequence within the genre on the basis of the principles of dependency and liberation.

Love and Nature in Birhan Keskin’s Poetry: From Folk Poetry to Ecofeminist Poetry

Hülya Çevirme

Abstract: This purpose is to experience the relationship between folk poetry and Birhan Keskin’s poetry, and to question the themes of nature through an intertextual reading. As a result, the poetry that Birhan Keskin will apply as a measure strongly embraced, the animist/mystic/transcendent/ liquid love, folk poetry and its poetry is closely connected to contemporary Turkish poetry. Keskin is in an intertextual conversation with Yunus Emre and Karacaoğlan, the two strongest collective subjects of folk poetry recording. It can be imported by extending the love poem and the theme it filters with references, and associations. As implementation based on the language of Yunus and Karacaoğlan, with an autobiographical introspection, is the self of love, of human, who gives visuals to nature, from society and from the system. She combined the themes and motifs of the folk recording of the imitation of nature and therapeutic book with the myth of natal history and archaic femininity. Keskin has experienced the metaphysics of his poetry in Turkish mystical poetry, his romantic love and nature have been eroded again. Birhan Keskin has done the ancient over and over again, working with the ecofeminist between the modern opposition of the Turkish people with a bridge. Our word about Keskin’s discussion is to provide a linguistic convenience about an insatiable project, to be briefly explained. The people of Keskin’s fluid modern poetry were also used.

Keywords: Birhan Keskin, Yunus Emre, Karacaoğlan, Love, Ecofeminist poetry

The Woman and the Self in Jale Sancak’s Novel Uyanan Güzel

Mihrican Aylanç

Abstract: In this study, the content analysis was carried out within the framework of self-theory with the focus on the self-construction process of Vahide, the female character of Jale Sancak’s novel “Uyanan Güzel”. Jale Sancak questions the existential pains of women who are trapped in the patriarchal society, locked in their homes due to various dimen-sions of violence, marginalized and silenced in her novel Uyanan Güzel, which we reviewed. In her stories and novels, Jale Sancak focuses on the hidden inner worlds of women with a special sensitivity, and in her novel Uyanan Güzel points out the inner existence of women, who were surrounded by patriarchal thought patterns in childhood and handed over to the auto-control of society. It tries to create a social awareness against the patriarchal system in order to emphasize that the individuation of women is possible. The process of discovering her own individual wishes and desires of Vahide, who represents the new generation women, whose individuation is earlier and easier, is analysed. It is revealed by the synthesis of the plot and the character, which is diffi-cult, but not impossible, to create a self for women who are silenced and whose dreams are taken away. It is implied that a woman can awaken to happiness by preserving her-self without excluding men and without losing her conscience and compassion. It is emphasized that women who take the strings of their own life and open their eyes to the society as themselves can take action in the public sphere, thus achieving a holistic identity.

Global Dimensions in Social Protection: Problems and Main Discussions

Abdulkadir Şenkal

Abstract: Globalization has significant financial positive potential for higher growth, employment levels, living standards and social protection, triggered by rapid technology transfers, rapid investment pace and global information access, among other factors. However, its benefits are unevenly distributed within and between countries. This situation creates serious problems for both developed and developing countries. Therefore, social protection is a concept that causes serious deficits in the globalization process. At the beginning of the twentieth century, as new social protection programs began to be adopted by Western countries, the scope and importance of the need for social welfare became more debatable. These discussions intensified in the years after World War II and became widespread in both developed and developing countries, emerging in the form of issues affecting funding, targets, management and scope.

People to Come or Society 5.0: The Idea of Protecting Society in the Context of the Relationship between Searching for Truth and Fabulation

Sinan Kürkçü

Abstract: In this article, it is examined how social protection, essentially the idea of protecting society with a wider perspective, can be shaped depending on the process called Society 5.0. Accordingly, the changing conditions of thought and knowledge are pointed out with the conceptualization of people to come. A view of the relationship between people to come and the idea of protecting society is presented in terms of the changing conditions of thought and knowledge. It is problematized how people to come can be shaped in the context of social protection with the developments of Society 5.0 and what kind of social perspective it can produce. The relationship of thought production with the conditions of knowledge, in other words, the issue of determining scientific research and technological development as a priority social horizon today has been evaluated in terms of understanding social protection with new scientific and social conditions. In this case, it is aimed to understand a point of view expressed by the convergence of the concepts of searching for truth and fabulation, in the context of the idea of protecting the society. As a result, the relationship of digital-based sociality with social protection is pointed out in terms of the development of the idea and practices of protection that a transformative social design can carry in the direction of common goods.

What will the Future Bring? Work, Digitalization and Social Protection under Society 5.0

Danijela Bagarić / Valentina Franca

Abstract: Digitalization, the process of converting information into a digital format, further develops people’s behaviour, skills and knowledge, especially that of digital natives, to use digital applications and technology. Society 5.0 may be too vague to function strategically, but it does place us at the centre of the ongoing technological revolution, and better facilitates proactivity. Globally, men generally participate in labour markets more than women, but this gender gap in participation rates has been sharply declining in recent decades. Turkey’s significant structural and social change of late is expected to make it easier for women to enter the labour market, but their participation in the labour market is still low.

How Will the Future Be? The Transformation of Romanian Labour Legislation in a Global Context

Magdolna Vallasek

Abstract: Over the past two decades, it has become increasingly common to hear the verdict that labour law is in crisis, finding it increasingly difficult to fulfil its main task of protecting workers. This is happening first and foremost because since classical labour law rules were established, society as a whole has undergone a profound change, with the labour market shifting towards production and the economy, globalisation, digitalisation and flexible work. Following the 4.0 industrial revolution, the aim is to achieve a 5.0 society, and this is the direction artificial intelligence, digitalisation and robotisation point to as well. In our short study, we ask to what extent labour law is ready for this, and what are the main problems and obstacles that may arise. We do this by taking the example of Romania’s legal development, and starting from the premise that the labour law measures introduced in the wake of the current pandemic are a valuable experience, as they have acted as a catalyst to bring to the fore dilemmas that labour law has been struggling with for some time. We can therefore experiment with the effects of some of the measures introduced in the context of the pandemic on the labour market and the situation of workers, and it would be wise to learn from these experiences.

The Role of the Artificial Intelligence in the Labour Law Relations in European and Asian Aspect

Gábor Mélypataki / Zsófia Riczu / Dávid Máté / Panggih Kusuma Ningrum

Abstract: Artificial intelligence and automation are some of the most defining elements of the XXI century, whose significant imprint is manifested in society and social relations. Digital development is transforming the world of work – this thesis is the starting point of many kinds of research. This principle is also the basic premise of the present study, as it transforms working and employment conditions to develop and spread digital technologies, resulting in an untraceable process. As the maker of individual decisions, artificial intelligence can create a new context in labour law. The study aims to examine the labour law entity of artificial intelligence, outlining the Asian and European distribution of reactions to the introduction of automatic decision-making and the impact of MI on industrial relations. The outstanding importance of the topic is also shown by the fact that numerous studies deal with examining legal personality outside labour law.

The Effects of the Covid-19 Pandemic on Organized Crime Activities in the Society 5.0

Pasquale Peluso

Abstract: The paper aims to analyze the effects that the Covid-19 pandemic has had on the illegal activities carried out by organized crime. Organized criminal groups have shown that they are able to quickly identify the sectors that can ensure greater earnings by exploiting the economic and health crisis due to the spread of Covid-19. The paper highlights how Society 5.0, through its inspiring principles, can offer valid tools for combating illegal activities carried out by organized crime.
