Economic Ideas Across Borders (Building Bridges Through Football: Migration, Identity, and German Influence in Turkish Football)
(Routledge, 2025) Genç, Tolga
Exploring the cross-cultural exchange of ideas between German and Turkish scholars, policymakers, and institutions, this book sheds light on how German theories were interpreted and applied in Turkey during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Situating the flow of ideas within broader patterns of economic globalization, the contributors to this edited volume explore historical, economic, and ideological developments in Turkey and Germany. Within economic thought, there is a particular focus on the influence of the German Historical School in Turkish economic thought; the contributions of German refugee scholars in the 1930s, through their publications, courses they offered, and their relations with the other members of academia; and Marxian Asiatic Mode of Production debates of the 1960s. In terms of economic policy, the book also discusses agrarian populism in the 1930s, German soft power in interwar Turkey, the first Gastarbeiter Agreement and its effects, German investments in Turkey after the World War II, and the role of sports in shaping relations between Germany and Turkey. The book will be of great interest to readers in the history of economic thought, intellectual history, economic history, and the histories of Germany and Turkey more broadly.

Perceived person-group alignment and collective action intentions in environmental movements
(Springer, 2025) Ergiyen, Tolga; Serap Akfırat; Akfirat, Serap
Addressing environmental destruction requires collective action, as its escalating impact on ecosystem sustainability continues to intensify due to global warming. Effective collective efforts depend on interactions among individuals within groups, underscoring the importance of person-group fit dynamics in motivating group members. The present study examines how person-group fit, specifically, congruence and discrepancy, influences socio-structural factors (stability and legitimacy) and psychosocial factors (moral conviction, anger, and collective efficacy) in predicting intentions to engage in environmental collective action. We collected data from 261 individuals who self-identified as environmentalists. Polynomial regression and response surface analyses revealed significant congruence effects for legitimacy, moral conviction, anger, and collective efficacy. Participants whose perceptions aligned with their group at high levels of these factors reported the strongest intentions to act, whereas congruence at low levels was associated with weaker intentions. We also observed significant discrepancy effects for legitimacy, moral conviction, and collective efficacy, indicating that individual perceptions exerted a stronger influence on collective action intentions than group perceptions when the two were misaligned. These findings demonstrate that both congruence and discrepancy between individual and group perceptions meaningfully shape collective action intentions. This study provides valuable insights into the social-psychological processes that drive collective environmental engagement and highlights the importance of considering group-level dynamics in environmental mobilization.
Towards a Sensorial Approach to Inclusive Urban Policy Making: Narrated Walks in Izmir's Cittaslow Neighborhood Program
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2025) Gökçe Sanul; Doğu, Tuba; Sanul, Gokce; Dogu, Tuba
With the rise of the information society and rapid advancements in technology, policy makers increasingly adopt data-driven approaches to understand and respond to complex urban challenges. In this context, the use walking for quantitative measures have become prominent, often guiding the agenda of local governments through metrics for urban policy making. However, this paper argues that sensory experiences captured through qualitative walking methods offer a valuable source of data for urban policy making. Incorporating sensory data presents an inclusive understanding of both physical and socio-cultural dynamics of urban space. Drawing on the methodology and findings of the walking method used in the Cittaslow Metropolis research project based in Izmir, Turkey, the paper demonstrates how spatially evoked sensorial experiences can inform and enrich inclusive urban policy development. The paper introduces a novel 'sensorial approach to urban policy making', locating sensorial experiences as a central analytical category that emphasize the integration of embodied, place-based knowledge. While critiquing the overreliance on standard quantitative methods, this paper also articulates the need for further interdisciplinary research combining qualitative and quantitative techniques of sensorial analysis, thereby supporting more inclusive urban policy making.
