 Representation of Women in History

ISBN: 9786256341074 YazşaDER Publishing

The book “Representation of Women in History” is an academic study that examines how women have been represented throughout history and the impact of these representations on social, political, and cultural structures. It evaluates the roles, rights, and positions of women in society from ancient times to the modern era through historical sources and various theoretical approaches. Utilizing feminist theories and gender perspectives, the book analyzes the portrayal of women in fields such as literature, art, politics, and law.

The book highlights that while women have historically been relegated to secondary positions, they have also played significant roles in resistance, struggle, and social change. It explores the discrimination women faced throughout history, the gender norms that shaped their roles, and the influence these factors had on the dynamics of society. “Representation of Women in History” questions how women have been depicted in both historiography and collective memory, and how these representations have contributed to contemporary perceptions of gender.

 Power and Identity- The Self in the Face of Authority

ISBN: 9786256700499 Cinius Publications

“Power and Identity – The Self in the Face of Authority” is an academic study that delves deeply into the interaction between individual identity and power structures. The book explores how power shapes the identity formation processes of individuals and communities, examining how individuals develop resistance to power, adapt to it, or internalize its norms, both on theoretical and empirical levels. Through comprehensive analyses drawing from various disciplines, it addresses how identity is constructed and transformed in the face of political, social, and institutional power. The study discusses concepts such as autonomy, resistance, hegemony, and identity conflicts, focusing on how individual and collective identities are shaped within the context of power relations.

 

Psychosocial Determinants of Alcohol Use in Young Adults

E-ISBN: 978-625-98114-0-6 İstanbul Medicosocial Education and Research Publishing (National Library E-Book)

 “Psychosocial Determinants of Alcohol Use in Young Adults” is an academic book based on sociological and psychological research. It explores the factors influencing alcohol consumption among young adults, analyzing both individual psychological traits and broader social influences. The book examines how social environments, peer pressure, cultural norms, and mental health conditions contribute to alcohol use, providing a comprehensive understanding of the underlying psychosocial factors. Through empirical studies and theoretical frameworks, the book aims to shed light on the complex interactions between societal and psychological determinants of alcohol behavior in young adults.

On International Migration and Brain Drain

ISBN: 978-605-72402-4-8 Zet Academic Publishing

 

The book discusses the phenomenon of “brain drain,” the emigration of highly educated individuals from developing countries to more prosperous nations, and its impact on global and national economies. It highlights how brain drain results from imbalances between population growth and economic development, leading to underemployment in less developed regions and a surplus of skilled labor in wealthier countries. While the migration of educated professionals can foster personal growth and contribute to globalization, it also depletes the human capital necessary for technological and economic progress in their home countries. The text argues that the loss of intellectual talent is a critical factor preventing developing nations from catching up with more advanced economies, exacerbated by factors such as lack of employment opportunities, social injustice, and financial instability. Although brain drain can have some positive effects, such as increasing global productivity, its overall consequences are more detrimental, particularly for the nations that lose their brightest minds.

Wave Breaker Screams

ISBN: 9786256789425 Cinius Publications

“Screams of the Breakwater” is an exploration of the human soul and the impact of narcissism on relationships and society. Through poems, short stories, and sociological-psychological essays, the book examines how narcissism spreads in society and affects human behavior. Combining art and science, it presents a manifesto against violence toward women and calls for resistance, offering inspiration to take steps toward a hopeful future.

Butterfly Reef

ISBN: 9786051274843 Cinius Publications

“Butterfly Reef” by Derya Berrak explores themes of childhood trauma, crime, and guilt through short stories, blending psychological and sociological perspectives. The book invites readers into a delicate world of children’s dreams and hopes, evoking nostalgia for one’s own childhood. While offering brief yet impactful narratives, it subtly addresses deeper emotional and societal issues, capturing complex themes within simple, modest stories. Through its exploration of innocence and growth, the work provides a reflective commentary on human behavior and societal influences.
