The author claims that J. Kornai in his paper Innovation and Dynamism (Voprosy Ekonomiki. 2012. No 4) ignored the understanding of socialism as a specific type of culture and not just as an economic system. He also shows profound differences between Schumpeters theory and mainstream economic models. Evolutionary theory, he claims, may itself become mainstream if Schumpeters legacy is not interpreted straightforwardly and if evolutionary economists consider not only micro-, but also macro-level of analysis in studying macrogenerations of capital of a different age.

1979 yılında işgal ve devamındaki terör yüzünden ülkelerinden koparak göçer duruma düşmüş ve Hatay-Ovakent’e yerleştirilmiş Özbek asıllı bir grup Afganistan vatandaşının kültür ve kimliklerini koruma çabalarını, kültürel değişimlerinin yönü ve hızını, değişimlerinin düzey ve biçimlerini belirlemeye yönelik yapılan ve sahada gerçekleştirilen anket çalışmasıyla desteklenen bu çalışma, kültürel azınlık bir topluluk durumundaki göçerlerin kültür(süz)leşme (acculturation) sürecini incelemektedir. Çalışmada, kültürel boyutlarıyla ele alınan topluluğun durumu makro düzeyde değerlendirilmiştir. Yedi bin kişilik göçer nüfusun 0.03 oranında küçültülmesiyle, farklı yaş ve cinsiyetten, 210 kişilik denek grubuna kültürün devamlılığı, çeşitliliği, değişimi ve egemen kültürle bütünleşme sürecini ölçmeye yönelik, yaşam biçimleri, benimsedikleri kimlik, dinsel uygulamaları, örf ve adetleri, aidiyetleri, meslekleri ve yemek kültürlerine yönelik yirmi dört soruluk bir sormaca uygulanmıştır. Yanıtlar Likert ölçekleme yöntemi ve John W. Berry’nin göçerlerin başka kültürlerle temasları durumunda karşılaştıkları süreçleri ele aldığı kültür(süz)leşme izlemleri kuramı çerçevesinde değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler, Özbek göçerlerin Türk toplumuyla her yönüyle bütünleşmeyi sürdürdüğü, ancak Ovakent’in egemen kültür bireylerinden ayrık bir konumda olmasının bu süreci yavaşlattığını göstermektedir..ABSTRACT IN ENGLISHAcculturation among Uzbek Immigrants in OvakentThis study, based on a survey, explores the efforts and experiences of maintaining the culture and identity among Uzbek immigrants, who were uprooted due to the occupation and the terror in 1979, and had moved to Hatay-Ovakent. It examines the process of acculturation of Uzbek migrants in a community in order to understand the process and speed of a cultural change. In this study, the Uzbek community is analysed at macro level. A questionnaire of twenty-four questions about the continuity of culture, diversity, exchange and integration processes are explored with a sample representing 0.03 percent of (210 respondents) a migrant community of seven thousand. The responses were collected using a questionnaire employing Likert Scale questions following the framework of acculturation strategies theory of John W. Berry regarding immigrants in contact with other cultures. We have found that Uzbek migrants continue to acculturate with Turkish society in all aspects, but due to Ovakent’s isolated position and distance from the mainstream culture in Turkey, this process has seemingly slowed down.

Varieties of non-obvious meaning in CL and CADS: from ‘hindsight post-dictability’ to sweet serendipity

Special Relevance

In this paper, I want to examine the special relevance of (non)obviousness in corpus linguistics through drawing on case studies. The research discussion is divided into two parts. The first is an examination of (non)obviousness at the micro-level, that is, in lexico-grammatical analyses, whilst the second looks at the more macro-level of (non)obviousness on the plane of discourse. In the final sections, I will examine various types of non-obvious meaning one can come across in Corpus-assisted Discourse Studies (CADS), which range from: ‘I knew that all along (now)’ to ‘that's interesting’ to ‘I sensed that but didn't know why’ (intuitive impressions and corpus-assisted explanations) to ‘I never even knew I never knew that’ (serendipity or ‘non-obvious non-obviousness’, analogous to ‘unknown unknowns’).

In order to explore factors conditioning the political quietude of Ukrainian labor, this article analyzes ethnographic data collected at two large enterprises: the Kyiv Metro and the privatized electricity supplier Kyivenergo. Focusing on a recent labor conflict, I unpack various contexts condensed in it. I analyze the hegemonic configuration developed in the early 1990s, at the workplace and at the macro level, and follow its later erosion. This configuration has been based on labor hoarding, distribution of nonwage resources, and patronage networks, featuring the foreman as the nodal figure. On the macro scale, it relied on the mediation by unions, supported by resources accumulated during the Soviet era and the economic boom of the 2000s. The depletion of these resources has spelled the ongoing crisis of this configuration.

Reductionism and holism in the philosophy of medicine

New Classification

The article highlights certain aspects of the discussion on the topic of reductionism vs. holism in the philosophy of medicine. Classic radical reductionism is defeated by the concept of emergence. The s.c. bio-medical point of view on a malady, despite its relevance and clear benefit, is not recognized as universal as its adherents may claim, and it yields to an integral psycho-bio-social model. The author introduces a new classification of holism (vitalistic, social and individualistic) and makes appropriate recommendations to clinicians. It is social holism at the macro level that has proven effective in combating the spread of COVID-19.
