Master of Arts Thesis Summary Part 1: (Instituto Bhaktivedanta de Ciencias y Humanidades) The Classic Literature of India-Antiquity of the Srîmad-Bhâgavatam-or Bhâgavata-Purâna

Dr Arganis-Juárez in this part-summary encapsulates the competing paradigms put forward by Indologists and experts of all shades and scholarly work in trying to authentically establish how ancient the Srîmad-Bhâgavatam is. His evaluation provides a sound base from which one can accept that the Srîmad-Bhâgavatam and its concept of the four ages comes from a time previous to the Ice Age, when it is believed that man migrated from Asia to the Americas.

Günümüz internet kullanıcıları bir yandan yeni nesil teknolojilerin getirdiği kolaylıklar sayesinde ağ üzerinde sosyalleşirken, diğer yandan da birçok iş alanında dönüşümlere neden olmaktadır. Artık işletmelerin sosyal medya olarak adlandırdığımız bu ortamlara eğilmeleri bir zorunluluk halini almıştır. Zira bu ortamlar kullanıcıyı pasif konumdan içerik üreten aktif kullanıcı haline getirmiş ve bünyesinde ürün ve hizmetlere ilişkin barındırdığı milyonlarca yorum ile işletmelere rekabet analizi, itibar yönetimi, kriz yönetimi, halkla ilişkiler gibi alanlarda yeni rekabet yöntemlerine olanak sağlamıştır. Bu doğrultuda çalışmada sosyal medyada rekabet analizi için karşılaştırma görevine yönelik bir fikir madenciliği modeli geliştirilmiştir.

Competitive Analysis on Social Media Comparison Task Oriented: Opinion Mining Model

Since social media environments can turn users from a passive position into active users who self-generate contents, in their millions of comments, relating to products and services thus providing enterprises the opportunities for new competition methods in areas such as competitive analysis, reputation management, crisis management, and public relations; an opinion mining model is used in the study for analysis of social media aimed at comparison purposes.

Prof. Dr. Hasip Pektaş acknowledges that typography is in some respect the most important element in an online newspaper's graphic design as it is the art of situating typefaces on a two-dimensional surface. Typography thus ensures that writing pushes the limits of logic, keeps attention alive, caresses human spirit, infuriates, and excites. Therefore, the typography of an online newspaper should be “simple, effective and deep”.

Professor Rogerson, an education leader in the Yorkshire region, having being actively involved in the implementation vis-à-vis the development of regional education policies within the various national education models and paradigms of England and Wales in the last 50 years analyses the 1944 Education Act seen as pivotal in defining the relationship between the centre and the regions after the 2^nd World War. He argues with breadth and depth that “subsequent developments have been in accord with the Act or have been enabled by the add-on legislation of succeeding governments because the educational themes, which developed later, have their origin in the intentions; the spirit, the mandatory or permissive mix of the 1944 Act; and in reactions to it.”

Asst. Prof. Dr. Tülay Çelik provides a balanced and well-reasoned criticism of the new director-cinema in Turkey against the background of globalised marketing through the International Film Festivals and networks of distribution outlets. Dr. Çelik argues for the preservation of the art in the films and the individual dynamism of the director-producer phenomenon. She cautions against festival directors, distribution managers and the international co-producers determining the production process exclusively and from reducing the ethos of the new film dynamism to sheer consumption.
