    The disembedded custom: Intrafamily murders for sexual honor in Turkish metropolises
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2000-06-01) Şimşek, Sefa; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen Edebiyat Fakültesi/Sosyoloji Bölümü.
    The subject of this article is the intrafamily murders committed for sexual honor in big cities and metropolises. Murders for sexual honor and the customs concerning them are among the basic elements of traditional and rural cultures. However, great waves of migration, technological advances, development of communication, and the globalization process experienced especially since the 1980’s have radically changed the coordinates of the rural-urban, traditionalmodern and local-universal distinctions. Just like many other things have been dismantled from their contexts, intrafamily murders for sexual honor, too, have been disembedded out of their original milieu, and begun to haunt in big cities and metropolises. Therefore, the globalization process does not only involve the expansion of such concepts as democracy, liberalism and human rights that are highly valued by the civilized world, but also that of primitive cultures, violent customs and superstitions.

    Kant’s Theory of Knowledge and Hegel’s criticism
    (Uludağ Üniversitesi, 2000-06-01) Çüçen, A. Kadir; Uludağ Üniversitesi/Fen Edebiyat Fakültesi/Felsefe Bölümü.
    Kant inquires into the possibility, sources, conditions and limits of knowledge in the tradition of modern philosophy. Before knowing God, being and reality, Kant, who aims to question what knowledge is, explains the content of pure reason. He formalates a theory of knowledge but his theory is neither a rationalist nor an empiricist theory of knowledge. He investigates the structure of knowledge, the possible conditions of experience and a priori concepts and categories of pure reason; so he makes a revolution like that of Copernicus . Hegel, who is one of proponents of the German idealism, criticizes the Kantian theory of knowledge for “wanting to know before one knows”. For Hegel, Kant’s a priori concepts and categories are meaningless and empty. He claims that the unity of subject and object has been explained in that of the “Absolute”. Therefore, the theory of knowledge goes beyond the dogmatism of the “thing-initself” and the foundations of mathematics and natural sciences; and reaches the domain of absolute knowledge. Hegel’s criticism of Kantian theory of knowledge opens new possibilities for the theory of knowledge in our age.
