EU Approaches to Managing Migration Flows in the Sahel and Their Implications for the Region

Since the start of the previous decade, the European Union has been actively engaged in political aff airs in the Sahel region. This area, which comprises some of the poorest nations globally, has become a top priority for Brussels’s foreign policy, mainly because of the 2014 migration crisis that aff ected Europe. A region destabilized by transnational terrorism saw hundreds of thousands of people fl ocking to Europe. Following this, the EU initiated the development of a comprehensive system to manage migration fl ows. This was achieved via the implementation of civilian and military missions, the creation of a trust fund to fi nance border management projects and the deployment of technical solutions to be jointly managed with the IOM and Interpol. As of 2016, there has been a decline in migration fl ows. Nevertheless, there have been several unintended consequences in the region owing to EU policies. The securitisation and criminalisation of migration fl ows and the services of Sahel «carriers» have resulted in this area merging with transnational crime and extremism. The implementation of digital migration monitoring systems has negatively impacted residents of border regions and local power factors, disrupting customary practices of daily life. This article analyses the impact of EU migration management strategies on the Sahel region and evaluates their contribution to destabilising neighbouring countries.

Searching for traces of human activity in earthen floor sequences: high-resolution geoarchaeological analyses at an Early Iron Age village in Central Iberia

The Northern Iberian Plateau during the Early Iron Age witnessed the proliferation of villages, showcasing well-preserved earthen architectural remains that offer valuable insights into past daily life practices. However, the application of high-resolution geoarchaeological approaches to these contexts has been largely overlooked, despite their significance in assessing complex sedimentary sequences predominantly composed of earth-based construction materials. This paper presents the outcomes of a microcontextual geoarchaeological study conducted on earthen dwellings from the Early Iron Age village of Cerro de San Vicente (Salamanca, Northern Iberia). Our study employed soil micromorphology, lipid biomarker analysis, XRD, and XRF analyses to investigate site formation processes, characterize construction materials and techniques, and explore aspects of daily life practices, functionality, and dwelling life histories. Our results have enabled the identification of three distinct construction layers within the dwellings, shedding light on recurrent events of floor use, maintenance, and repaving. Additionally, we have detected periods of abandonment and decay of the earth-based construction material that inform on the dynamics of abandonment and reuse within the village. Furthermore, our analysis has revealed the presence of well-preserved lipid biomarkers throughout the sequences, possibly associated with the past functionality of the dwellings. Ongoing and future analyses will further contribute to our understanding of ancient construction practices and the utilization of domestic spaces at Cerro de San Vicente. This study significantly enhances the limited availability of high-resolution, microcontextual data sets concerning Iron Age contexts in Iberia, underscoring the potential of our approach for future consolidation and advancement. By combining different geoarchaeological methodologies, we demonstrate the importance of integrating diverse analytical techniques to gain comprehensive insights into the socio-cultural dynamics of the Early Iron Age settlements.

The Production of Secular, Religious and Fluid Religious Identity Through Daily Life Practices: Example of Kızılcık Şerbeti (Cranberry Sorbet) Serial

Türk modernleşmesi ile başlayan süreçte ortaya çıkan laik-seküler ve dindar kimliklerin bugün dahi toplumsal ve siyasal alanda gerilimin kaynağı olduğu bir gerçektir. Toplum halen kendini yoğunlukla iki kimlik üzerinden tanımlamakta ve kutuplarını belirlemektedir. Ancak kimliklerin her zaman iki keskin kutupta olduğunu ve değişime uğramadığını söyleyemeyiz. Laik-seküler ve dindarlar açısından düşünüldüğünde, artık ılıman bölgeye tekabül eden, ortada kimlikler olduğunu söylememiz gerekir. Diğer yandan söz konusu kimliklerin mekânları, yaşam tarzı, eğlence ve müzik anlayışı, sofra anlayışı, giyim tarzı ya da toplumsal olaylara bakışı farklılaşmaktadır. Bu farklılaşma genellikle dini- seküler temsillerle görünür olmaktadır. Bu bağlamda gündelik hayatın işleyişi ve ritmine bakmak, dindarlığın ve sekülerliğin kendini nasıl ürettiği yanında gerilimin kaynağını anlayabilmemiz adına işlevsel bir araçtır. Show TV’de 2022 yılında yayınlanmaya başlayan Kızılcık Şerbeti isimli dizi, dindar bir ailenin oğlu ile laik-seküler bir ailenin kızının evliliğini, söz konusu gündelik yaşam pratikleri ve gerilim üzerinden ele almaktadır. Aynı zamanda dizide akışkan dindar olarak tanımlanabilecek kimlik temsillerine yer verilmiştir. Bu çalışmada söz konusu temsillerin tespit edilebilmesi için Van Dijk’in eleştirel söylem analizi kullanılarak dizi filmin çözümlemesi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Çözümleme sonucunda seküler ve dindar yaşam tarzlarının, gündelik konuşma dilini içeren selamlaşma ya da iyi dilek söylemlerinde, evcil hayvanlara karşı yaklaşımda, cinsiyet temelli doktor tercihlerinde, kadına şiddete karşı eylem ve söylemlerde, bilimle kutsalın kıyasında ve mekân tercihlerinde farklılaştığı tespit edilmiştir.

Does having more power make people more materialistic? The role of personal sense of power for gift preferences.

Gift-giving is a prevalent practice in daily life, with experiential gifts being identified in studies as having hedonic and interpersonal advantages, often yielding greater recipient satisfaction compared to material gifts. However, the reception of experiential gifts might not always align with expectations, as material gifts are valued for their enduring qualities. Thus, comprehending the contexts favoring material or experiential gift preferences becomes crucial. Existing research primarily delves into external influences like income and social proximity, while intrinsic factors such as personal sense of power in interpersonal interactions have received limited attention. Guided by the Agentic-communal Model of Power, we conducted three studies to investigate how personal sense of power impact gift preferences. Our findings demonstrated that gift preferences are contingent upon personal sense of power. Specifically, those possessing a high personal sense of power exhibited a preference for material gifts over experiential ones, whereas individuals with a low personal sense of power favored experiential gifts over material ones. Further analysis revealed that the relationship between personal sense of power and gift preference is mediated by information processing fluency. This study contributes to the field of gift preferences and sheds light on the role of personal sense of power. By incorporating the Agentic-communal Model of Power, we offer novel insights into the dynamics between personal sense of power and gift preferences. These findings hold valuable implications for managerial strategies concerning gift selection and interpersonal interactions.

Veganomics: Current Status and Challenges

Products introduced as vegan are recognized by consumers as ethical consumption that protects animals and the environment, so they are becoming a trend in recent marketing strategies. However, consumers are confused by the claim that veganism consumption is not environmentally friendly, contrary to consumers' perception of animal protection and environmental protection. Vegan leather, which appeared as an alternative to natural leather, emits harmful substances during the manufacturing and disposal process, is less durable than natural leather, and has a shorter lifespan, resulting in a problem of fast fashion. Substitute meat is emerging as a food of the future due to environmental problems caused by raising livestock. However, considerable carbon is generated during the production of substitute meat, and there is a problem in verifying the safety of fiber materials such as various additives used during the production process. In the case of vegan cosmetics, they use only eco-friendly ingredients derived from nature instead of animal ingredients and do not test on animals, so the impact on the environment is minimal. Overall, bigonomics products generate relatively less environmental pollutants and cause less environmental pollution, but there are still limitations to be overcome. It is thought that the limitations of bigonomics can be overcome through social collective practice such as education and investment in parallel with individual practice in daily life. Furthermore, I think that if there is a correct understanding of vegannomics and communication about its value, the vegan industry will be able to take its place as a major industry in society. In this review, the current status of bigonomics in the food, cosmetics, and fashion industries, which are being developed by consumers' ethical consumption, is reviewed and prospects are presented. This review will help set the direction in each industry pursuing vigenomics.

Moda İlgileniminin Sürdürülebilir Tüketim Davranışı Bağlamında Değerlendirilmesi

This study aims to examine fashion involvement in the context of sustainable consumption behavior. The dimensions of sustainable consumption behavior were determined and the effects of these dimensions on fashion involvement were investigated. Furthermore, the moderation effect of gender on these variables was analyzed. A quantitative research approach was adopted and descriptive, exploratory, and confirmatory statistical analyses were conducted. Hypothesis testing techniques were used to decide whether to accept or reject the hypothesis. The results show that household energy saving and responsive food choice have a significant effect on fashion involvement and gender has a moderator effect between these dimensions and fashion involvement. For male consumers, fashion involvement increases when responsive food choice behaviors increase and decrease when fashion involvement decreases. Female consumers who try to conserve energy resources at home are less interested in fashion and fashion-related activities. The originality of this study is that it attempts to explore the relationship between two concepts that do not seem directly related and to evaluate all consumption practices in daily life with a holistic view.
