Yayın Pitfalls in the Turkish nuclear programme(The British Association for Turkish Area Studies, 2019) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüThe origins of nuclear power go back to 1885 when Rontgen discovered the X-ray and one year later Becquerel identified natural radiation. In 1939 Hahn and Strassman achieved the splitting of the uranium atom in Berlin which initiated fission technology. Three years later in the USA Fermi proved that the fission chain reaction in uranium nuclei could be sustained and controlled, making it feasible to harness this energy. Then nuclear technology developed in two different ways; the creation of a nuclear bomb and the development of a nuclear reactor for power generation. On 6 August 1945 a successfully assembled uranium-235 bomb was dropped on Hiroshima and on 12 August a plutonium bomb was dropped on Nagasaki which ended the war in the Pacific.Yayın Economic appraisal of carbon emitting projects and global warming(Centre for Japanese and East Asian Studies, 2019) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüThis article focusses on how carbon emissions from various sources which contribute to the climate change are evaluated in economics. It has been argued by some economists that in cost-benefit analysis empirically based discount rates are too high wiping out distant environmental costs of many projects to the detriment of the environment. To this effect the British Government recommended %3.5 declining discount rate over time in the economic appraisal of projects and in this way, it has been claimed, future generations would not suffer from environmental externalities. Likewise Stern Review on climate change, published in 2006 which generated a good deal of controversy, also suggested the use of a low, but not declining, discount rate especially for projects with serious environmental consequences such as global warming. In this way the distant consequences of carbon emitting projects will have bearing in the current decision making process. This paper shows that neither Stern’s low discount rate nor the British Government’s declining figure will achieve their stated objectives because both like traditional models wipe out the environmental costs that will occur in the distant future. The paper instead recommends the use of intergenerational discounting criterion that places a substantial weight on future costs of all projects which are creating environmental externalities.Yayın Churchill-a good friend of Turkey(The British Association for Turkish Area Studies, 2020) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüIn Turkey Winston Churchill is known as an important historic figure of the twentieth century but also as an adversary of the Turks, largely due to the Gallipoli Campaign in which he was the major architect. The Campaign was a disaster for the Allied Forces and a great humiliation for Churchill which cost him his job as First Lord of the Admiralty. For the Turks, however, Gallipoli was a great victory which erased the bad image created by the First Balkan War of 1912 which portrayed the Turks as easy meat. Gallipoli reversed that. The victory at Gallipoli has largely been attributed to the military genius of the field commander Mustafa Kemal, who in later years became the top figure in Turkish politics and the founder of the Turkish Republic. A British staff officer writing about the official history of the event argued that ‘seldom in history can the exertion of a single commander have exercised so profound an influence, not only in the course of a battle, but on the destiny of the entire nationYayın Nostalgia and Beginnig(The British Association for Turkish Area Studies, 2020) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın Teenage spring in Gallipoli(The British Association for Turkish Area Studies, 2019) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat Bölümü[No Abstract Available]Yayın Impact of global warming on forestry investments(CJEAS, 2020) Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Kula, Erhun İbrahim; Yönetim Bilimleri Fakültesi, İktisat BölümüUp until recently afforestation projects had been looked at from the viewpoint of timber production. Efforts to combat climate change have added a new dimension to investment in forestry which has been encouraged by the Kyoto, Marrakech and Cancun Deals. As trees grow overtime, they capture CO2 from the atmosphere which moderates the problem of global warming. The article 3.3 of the Kyoto Protocol states that “the net changes in greenhouse gas emissions by source and removal by sinks resulting from human induced land use change and forestry activities limited to afforestation, reforestation and deforestation activities since 1990 measured as verifiable changes in carbon stock in early commitment period, shall be used to meet commitments in the Protocol.” In this respect Kyoto granted carbon credits to newly created forests. Such credits can now be used directly by firms with greenhouse gas emissions or could be traded into a future emissions scheme at prevailing prices. The rules for the implementation of the Kyoto Protocol were agreed at the Marrakech Conference in 2001 which placed limits on the amount of credits which can be obtained from forest management. Trees because of their large biomass content make an important contribution to the global carbon cycle. Unfortunately, as more and more greenhouse gasses are released into the atmosphere every year deforestation is continuing unabated especially in the tropics. It has been estimated that about a quarter of the global warming problem stems from forest destruction as deforestation adds about 1 gigatons of CO2 to the atmosphere per annum. That is, if we slowed down forest destruction and increased our efforts in afforestation this would give us precious time to construct more comprehensive policies in dealing with the climate problem. This paper estimates how long planted trees with carbon sequestration will stay on the ground as compared with wood only situation. In order to find out this we use a British data on Sitka spruce which is the most favoured species planted extensively throughout the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland.
