Hatice AZTİMUR, — 2024-08-29

 The process of globalization has accelerated labor migration, but regional wars have emerged as one of the most important factors in the global migration movement. After the civil war that started in Syria in 2011, a massive migration to firstly the region countries and the whole of the world began to emerge, causing millions of people to fall to the position of refugees/asylum seekers. However, migration from Syria led to the concentration of refugees in some countries, while others, by means of measures, created barriers to the flow of refugees. This has led to the accumulation of Syrians, especially in countries with a common border. Syrians who migrated from Syria since 2011 have somehow integrated into the labor markets in these countries during their survival. Turkey one of the countries receiving mass Syrian migration through its open-door policy. Jordan and Lebanon, countries in the region along with Turkey have also opened their doors to a large number of Syrian. In this study, migration and refugees are discussed in relation between capitalist accumulation and Syrian refugees. In this context, the integration of Syrian refugees into labour markets has been evaluated through the example of the Turkish labour markets in which new inequalities have been built in the global capitalist process.

The number and importance of these inventions, which are the result of scientists' monitoring of nature, is increasing day by day. Since it is learned that nanotechnology, which is the most popular technology today, is used by animals, systems that facilitate human life enable us to develop in a dizzying way. Many materials and devices designed by imitating nature make human life easier and more perfect. This technological field that develops by imitating living things in nature is biomimetic. One of the marvelous events that attract people's attention and arouse curiosity is the gecko lizard.

Faruk AYLAR,, Halil İbrahim ZEYBEK — 2024-08-29

The Uyuz Lakewas located inUylubağı village of Sulusaray town, Tokat which is the middle part of the Blacksea Region. The lake is about 10 kms from Sulusaray town and it is 65 km from Tokat and 30 km. from Artova town. The lake was occurred in a tectonic basin structure which is in the southern part of the Deveci mountains where the water is collected in the deepest part. The surface area of the lake is approximately 339.775 m2 and the height of it from the sea level is about 1035 m. The water of the lake cannot flow anywhere as the area seems to be a closed basin. The lake lies in the east-west direction and the lengtht is about 1,3 km in, the width of it is 200 m in the middle and 500 m in the east part. The water of the lake is salty as its water flows nowhere. The villagers of Uylubağı opened an artificial canal for the lake. Some immigrant birds such as Crane, Angry bird, Duck, Stork, Cormorant and Swans are stayed around the lake in the immigration periods and the vegetation of the area was highly destroyed. The local people of Sulusaray earn their living from agriculture and cattle dealing. In the area, the Uyuz lake, the Sulusaray thermal spring and the Sebastopols antique ruins and other natural and cultural values deserve to be evaluated. As the agricultural land have been divided, the trade of agricultural products lost their importance. As a result, most of the local people moved to metropolitan cities as seen in many parts of Turkey. It is thought whether the state and the private sector invest some money to these richness’s, the lake and its environment can bring a new facility to the people in economical and touristic aspects.
