The Critique of Capitalism in the Light of Qur'anic Verses
(Sage Publications Ltd, 2015) Eliacik, Ihsan
This paper argues that the Qur'an must be understood as an anti-capitalist text. The Qur'an contains many verses that declare unequivocally the accumulation of wealth and monopoly ownership, either by the one person or one group, to be highly problematic ethically and socially. Qur'anic verses attend frequently to the issues of ownership and the accumulation of wealth. In the first years of the revelation and particularly before the Prophet's migration to Mecca, the Qur'an discusses frequently the issue of ownership. Before the migration, the Qur'an taught mainly about the exploitative nature of the existing economic system while, in the post-migration era, the Qur'an laid the foundation of a new system in which the accumulation of wealth and ownership monopoly are central causes of ethical and social degeneration. The Qur'an regards the redistribution of wealth to be both a religious duty and an ethical obligation.

Intentions to Return and Migrate to the Third Countries: A Socio-Demographic Investigation Among Syrians in Turkey
(SpringerLink, 2023) Ergün, Naif; Zafer Özkan, Ayberk Eryılmaz, Naif Ergün
Turkey hosts the highest number of Syrians in the world. While some of them intend to migrate to Western countries, others intend to return to their homeland. In a cross-sectional study, we examined several socio-demographic associates with their migration intentions (N=358). Results revealed that their intentions to migrate were related to factors such as gender, living in the East or West in the host country, employment status, the language spoken at home, owning a property in the host country, accommodation conditions (living in a camp, staying with relatives, e.g.), and education level. Moreover, the strongest correlates of intention to return were years spent in Turkey, perceived threat in Syria, the number of children, and age. Finally, the strongest correlates for intentions to migrate to Western countries were Turkish speaking level, the number of children, and family income. We discuss the fndings in relation to the integration paradox hypothesis.

Offense Narrative Roles of Turkish Offenders
(International Journal of Offender Therapy and Comparative Criminology, 2021) Zeyrek-Rios, Emek Yüce; Canter, David V.; Youngs, Donna
The study of offense narratives emphasizes the agency of the offender which brings psychology closer to law. As an effort to create a standardized and quantitative method to evaluate offender narratives, Youngs and Canter developed the Narrative Roles Questionnaire (NRQ) based on the content analyses of the crime narratives of offenders in UK prisons. The current study aims to investigate the applicability of offense narrative roles framework among Turkish offenders. The application of the offense narrative roles model to a non-Western country is the first step toward the acceptance of criminal narrative theory as a universal explanation of criminal behavior. A translation of the NRQ was administered to 468 Turkish male inmates who have committed a wide range of offenses from fraud to murder. The results of an MDS analysis yielded four roles, namely Professional, Revenger, Hero, and Victim, echoing the original formulation proposed by Youngs and Canter. The reliability coefficients of scales derived for these roles were all at desired levels. The results support the applicability of the NRQ framework in a non-English context.
