Muhasebe meslek mensuplarının etik davranışı muhasebe mesleğinin toplumdaki yeri açısından önemlidir. Bu araştırmanın amacı, geleceğin muhasebe meslek mensubu adayları olan Muhasebe Ve Vergi Uygulamaları Programı öğrencilerinin etik değerlerinin bazı değişkenlere göre belirlenmesidir. Araştırmaya 724 öğrenci katılmıştır. Öğrencilere anket tekniğiyle sorular yöneltilerek meslek etiği algı düzeyleri belirlenmiştir. Araştırma verilerinin analizinde Mann-Whitney U ve Kruskal-Wallis testlerinden yararlanılmıştır. Elde edilen bulgular istatistiksel olarak 0.05 anlamlılık düzeyinde sınanmıştır. Araştırmanın sonucunda bazı değişkenlere göre etik algı düzeylerinde istatistiksel bakımdan anlamlı bir fark olduğu belirlenmiştir. Araştırma bulguları, bayan öğrencilerin etik algı düzeylerinin erkek öğrencilere göre daha yüksek olduğunu göstermektedir. Yaş faktörü etik algı düzeyini etkilerken, öğrencilerin öğrenim gördükleri sınıf etik algısını etkilememektedir. Gelir düzeyi öğrencilerin etik algısında farklılığa neden olan önemli faktörlerden birisi olarak araştırma sonucuna yansımaktadır. Ailenin geliri arttıkça etik algısının azalması araştırmanın ilginç bulguları arasındadır. Araştırma bulgularına göre babanın eğitim düzey muhasebe programı öğrencilerinin etik algılarını etkilememektedir ancak annenin eğitim düzeyi her boyutta öğrencilerin etik algısına yansımıştır. Görev ve sorumluluklara yönelik etik algısı ile mesleki bireysel davranışlara yönelik etik algısının annenin eğitim düzeyi yükseldikçe azaldığı belirlenmiştir.

Abstract
This study aimed to reveal the fiscal cost of banking interventions in the Eurozone. To this end, firstly, the theoretical underpinnings of a banking crisis and its management policies are explained, then the policies used in the Eurozone and their costs are analyzed in detail. For analysis of banking interventions on budgets, Multidimensional Scaling (MDS) Analysis was used to see similarities and dissimilarities between countries. Two important conclusions emerged. First; countries that have faced a systemic banking crisis (Germany, the Netherlands and Ireland) were dissimilar from the group as a whole from the beginning of the financial crisis. After a sovereign debt crisis, the indebted countries were also affected and disintegrated (Greece and Spain). The second was that the net budgetary impact of these measures was found to be smaller than anticipated but the rise in gross debt was considerable in some countries. Furthermore, in those countries, contingent liabilities posed a threat for future public finances. In order to minimize the fiscal cost of a banking crisis, union-wide crisis management and institutions should be established. This calls for the completion of The Banking Union.

Abstract
Relative deprivation hypothesis asserts that the individuals’ migration decisions are affected not from their absolute income levels, but from their relative position to the reference group living in the same region. The aim of this study is to test the validity of the relative deprivation hypothesis for Turkey. In other words, the study aims to analyze the effects of regional inequalities on inter-regional migration flows. In the study, the determinants of inter-regional migration flows are analyzed for the regions defined at the İBBS 1st level. Inter-regional migration flows are calculated by Turkish Statististical Institute and are only available for the 2008-2012 period, so the study covers this period. The findings of this study reveal that, inter-regional migration flows are not affected by regional inequalities in Turkey, but absolute income level is important.

Göreli yoksunluk hipotezi bireylerin göç kararlarının kendi mutlak gelirlerinden çok, yaşadıkları bölgedeki referans gruba göre göreli gelirlerinden etkilendiğini ortaya koymaktadır. Bu çalışmanın amacı, göreli yoksunluk hipotezinin Türkiye örneğinde geçerliliğini sınamaktır. Diğer bir değişle, bu çalışmanın amacı bölgeler arasındaki göç hareketlerinin, bölgelerdeki gelir eşitsizliğinden etkilenip etkilenmediğinin araştırılmasıdır. Çalışmada İBBS 1. düzeyde tanımlanan bölgeler için, TÜİK tarafından hesaplanan veriler kullananılarak, bölgelerarası göçlerin belirleyenleri test edilmiştir. Bölgeler arası göç istatistikleri TÜİK tarafından sadece 2008-2012 yılları için hesaplandığı için çalışma bu dönemi kapsamaktadır. Elde edilen bulgular, teorik beklentilerin aksine Türkiye’de bölgesel göçlerin göreli yoksunluk düzeyinden değil, mutlak gelir düzeyinden etkilendiğini göstermektedir.

Abstract
The threat generated by obesity is increasing in terms of health of both individuals and society day by day. States are using different tools in fighting against this threat. One of these tools is taxing obesity. In fighting against obesity, in order to protect health, while there are tax proposals and practices in different names and subjects, Obesity Tax” is used as a generic name. We conducted a field questionnaire study applied all around Turkey, in order to measure the public opinion related with “Obesity Tax” that probably would be applied in Turkey. In this paper it is determined that public believe the necessity of fighting obesity; however, this struggle must be based on non-tax instruments because they have concern the tax might be applied for the fiscal purposes. According to results of the study, we offer specifically to the policy makers that regulative, public supported, efficient and unique “Obesity Tax” must be implemented, but, such tax revenues must be spent for fighting against obesity or subsidies for healthy products.

Obezitenin birey ve toplum sağlığı açısından oluşturduğu tehdit gün geçtikçe artmaktadır. Devletler, bu tehditle mücadelede farklı araçlar kullanmaktadır. Bu araçlardan biri de obezite vergisidir. Obezite ile mücadelede, sağlığı koruma amaçlı olarak, değişik isim ve farklı konularda vergi öneri ve uygulamalarına rastlanmakla birlikte “Obezite Vergisi” genel bir isim olarak kullanılmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, Türkiye’de uygulanma ihtimali bulunan “Obezite Vergisi” ile ilgili olarak, halkın düşüncelerini ölçmek amacı ile Türkiye genelinde ankete dayalı bir alan araştırması ve buna dayalı istatistiki analizler yapılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuçlarına göre halkın obezite ile mücadelenin gerekliliğine inandığı ancak verginin fiskal amaçla alınacağı endişesi taşıdığından bu mücadelenin vergi dışı araçlarla yapılmasını arzuladığı tespit edilmiştir. Çalışma politika yapıcılar için; obezite vergisinin obezite ile ilgili regülasyonları tamamlayıcı ve kamuoyu desteğini alan etkin, bağımsız bir vergi olarak konulabileceğini ancak böyle bir verginin hasılatının obezite ile mücadele veya sağlıklı ürünlerin sübvansiyonu için harcanmasını önermektedir.

Abstract
Globalized economy has brought about many economic and political problems in both national and international fields. One of the most significant results of globalization is that it has removed boundaries and reduced time and space related costs preventing international capital from moving towards areas where it can increase its value. This change, which is positive considering revaluation and profit increase in global capital, has caused normlessness and led to a process blocking international competition, which may most of the time result in national and international economic crises. Countries have, thus, started to introduce tax policies that would attract global capital. This problem has conceptually been handled in fiscal literature as international tax competition. Recently its harmful aspects have also been included in the discussions. In this context, national authorities as well as international institutions such as European Union and OECD have been working on projects to prevent harmful tax competition. Yet, globalization and financialization of economy have made countries more dependent on international capital. It is conflicting that countries are making new regulations to prevent harmful tax competitions while they are also creating an environment where they can promote global capital to avoid possible financial crises. This conflict was clearly observed in European Union during the 2008 global crisis. This study reveals the conflict between tax policies applied by EU to overcome the 2008 global financial crisis and the works intended for preventing harmful tax competition in EU.

Abstract
Occupational accidents cause important social and economic problems by loss of life and physical injuries. Construction sector involves high risk due to its production processes and labor intensive characteristic and because of occupational accidents the sector brings up against financial loss in large scale. In developing countries, construction sector is one of the most important sectors that have a great contribution to economic development with its employment capacity and added-value to the economy. On the other hand, due to the lack of preventive measures, occupational accidents occur, frequently in construction in Turkey. Major occupational accidents are defined as the cause of serious injuries and a long-term disability; minor occupational accidents are defined as the cause of insignificant injuries and short-term disability. Minor occupational accidents are not considered sufficiently, they are even not kept as a record. It is known that minor occupational accidents, which are not considered sufficiently and even not registered, cause great financial loss in workplaces. The aim of this paper is to investigate the cost of workforce loss caused by the accidents in construction sites by using the statistics of three construction sites in Turkey and to compare the financial losses of minor and major occupational accidents. In this study, three construction project are investigated in Turkey in 2009 and it is obtained that the cost of workday loss caused by major occupational accidents is 19431.75 $ and minor occupational accidents cause a loss of 6924.25 $. The cost of workday loss caused by minor occupational accidents are almost 35 % of major workday losses’. These costs presents the importance of preventive measures for workers’ health and safety in construction.
