How Can The Solution To The Problems Of The Gold Money System Removed?

Fetullah AKIN, — 2024-08-29

Abstract The fact that the national currency that is issued by a country is accepted in international payments and that it is regarded as a reserve currency, provides the country with a financial advantage as well as an economic power. The main colonial countries of France, Germany and England enjoyed such privileges through the currency zones they established in their colonialized countries until the end of the World War II. In such currency zones, member countries accept the use of a common money together with certain binding common rules. Money of each countries based on fixed parities in the currency zone can be converted to each other; the currency obtained is combined and managed by one country; the money of the politically, economically and financially largest country plays the role of central currency in the monetary union. Such a monetary union was first established in 1931 as the Sterling currency zone. In the aftermath of the World War II, the US has sought to make the whole world a single monetary region, and the world has witnessed, to a great extent, that this effort with Bretton Woods Monetary System has been achieved. With the collapse of the Bretton Woods Monetary System in 1971, the world entered a systemless period, and in this lack of system, the world faced many problems. High volatility in exchange rates, severe economic crises, and high external debt of developing countries are some of these problems. A new world monetary system must be built for a less problematic world. The economic size of a country plays an important role in creating money regions. Thus, in the near future, a currency zone could be expected to be established among the East Asian countries that built the world's second-largest or third-largest economies. The shake of the dollar throne in this region will significantly lose the dollar's world money. Such a development can limit the power of the United States, which has gained a great advantage over armed power and turned into a war machine. A similar development can be formed among Turkish relative communities. A common monetary zone, with the Russian federation’s partial participation, can be established under the leadership of Turkey.

Uluslararası göç ve uluslararası göçmenler, küresel bir gerçekliktir. Ülkeler bu gerçekliği hem göç vererek hem de göç alarak deneyimlemektedirler. Küresel eşitsizliklerin arttığı günümüz dünyasında özellikle gelişmiş ülkelere doğru bir insan hareketliliği yaşanmaktadır. Çoğunlukla geri kalmış ülkelerden insanlar daha iyi bir hayat beklentisiyle, başta Avrupa ülkeleri olmak üzere Kuzey Amerika ve Avusturya gibi coğrafyalara sığınma arayışındalar. Bu çalışmada uluslararası göçmenlerin konakladıkları mekânla (Basmane Oteller Sokağı) olan ilişkileri araştırılmıştır. Basmane semti Suriyeli göçmenlerin ve de yerli kent yoksullarının da yaşadığı, eski ve bakımsız binaların olduğu kent içi bir çöküntü mekânıdır. Bu araştırmada nitel araştırma yöntemi benimsenmiş ve yarı yapılandırılmış görüşme tekniği ile görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. 15 uluslararası göçmen, 2 otel işletmecisi ve 1 market sahibi olmak üzere toplam 18 kişiyle görüşülmüştür. Uluslararası göçmenlerin çoğunluğu, Basmane semtini Avrupa’ya geçme yolunda geçici bir mekân olarak kullanmakla birlikte, bu konaklama süreci bazen aylarca sürebilmektedir. İyi bir hayat beklentisi içerisindeki uluslararası göçmenlerin; son derece kötü ve sağlıksız koşullarda yaşadığı ve özellikle de Afrikalı göçmenlerin bazı dışlanmalara maruz kaldıkları bu araştırmada bulgulanmıştır.

Osman ORAL, — 2024-08-29

The Dhulqarnain (Zulkarneyn) is a just ruler in his vast country and a historical personality who protects the oppressed against tyrannical communities.

In response to this of Surah The Cave (al-Kahf) 83 to 98 his verses are revealed. The Dhulqarnain according to Abu Mansur al-Maturidi (d. 333/944), an important scholar of the Turkish-Islamic world, Allah has taught him the reasons and the knowledge that will make power and rule right, He is a ruler named Gog and Magog who has built a great barrier of iron and copper to protect the oppressed peoples against the corrupt and tyrannical communities.

The story of the Dhulqarnain which contain many wisdom, are considered as signs and signs of The Mohammad’s Prophethood.

In order for individuals and societies to live in justice, peace, love, peace and civilization, the psycho-social principle needs to be protected from evil, injustice and cruelty, the prototype and the story of The Dhulqarnain presents to humanity.
