Awareness of Cultural Differences Between Turkey and the Czech Republic AWARENESS OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TURKEY AND THE CZECH REPUBLIC In this place I would also like to thank my supervisor Mgr. Zdislava Kratochvílová for support (and usefull suggestions) with my work and I would also like to thank my collegue who has helped me with some information. 1 THE COLLEGE OF POLYTECHNICS, JIHLAVA Programme: Economics and Management Field of study: Travel Toursim AWARENESS OF CULTURAL DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TURKEY AND THE CZECH REPUBLIC Bachelor Thesis Supervisor of bachelor thesis: Author: Mgr. Zdislava Kratochvílová Jitka HANAUEROVÁ In Jihlava, 2011 2 ABSTRACT HANAUEROVÁ, Jitka: “Awareness of Cultural Differences between Turkey and the Czech Republic“; Bachelor thesis; The College of Polytechnics in Jihlava; Field of study: Travel Tourism; Supervisor: Mgr. Zdislava Kratochvílová; Degree qualifications: bachelor; In Jihlava; 2011. 65 pages. My bachelor thesis is trying to show a little bit more of Turkish culture. My theoretical part provides important information about Turkey. Not only does Turkey have rich history, which means beautiful historic places, but there is also beautiful nature, and I am writing about many of those places. I have used the info mainly from travel guides and some information is from my own experiences from times when I used to work in Turkey. In my practical part I have chosen to conduct the research by questionnaires. I have made two types of questionnaires. One type was for those people, who have been to Turkey at least on holiday – there were 50 respondents. And the other type was for those people, who have lived or have been still living in Turkey – there were 20 respondents. After collecting all questionnaires I have made analysis of each answered question and at the end I have attached conclusion of my research. 4 ABSTRAKT HANAUEROVÁ, Jitka: „Povědomí o kulturních rozdílech mezi Tureckem a Českou Republikou“; Bakalářská práce; Vysoká škola polytechnická v Jihlavě; Obor: Cestovní ruch; Vedoucí práce: Mgr. Zdislava Kratochvílová; Stupeň kvalifikace: bakalář; V Jihlavě; 2011. 65 stran. Má bakalářská práce se snaží poukázat trochu více z turecké kultury. Teoretická část podává informace o Turecku.. Turecko nemá pouze bohatou historii, tedy krásná historická místa, ale můžeme zde také vidět krásnou přírodu a já píši o mnoha těchto místech. Informace jsem použila především z cestovních průvodců a některé jsou z mých vlastních zkušeností z dob, kdy jsem v Turecku pracovala. V praktické části jsem se rozhodla provést výzkum pomocí dotazníků. Vytvořila jsem dva typy dotazníků. Jeden typ byl pro ty, kteří byli v Turecku alespoň na prázdninách – bylo 50 zodpovídajících. A další typ byl pro ty, kdo žili nebo stále v Turecku žijí – bylo 20 zodpovídajících. Po zísání všech dotazníků jsem vyvořila analýzu každé otázky a na konci přidala závěr k mému výzkumu. 5 PREFACE When I was thinking about the main topic of my bachelor thesis it was very hard. Eventually I found the topic, which seemed to me quite close and thatis the topic about Turkey. I just knew that I wanted to show to others that Turkey is not a dangerous state and place as still many people think. My work is focused on those who still have some kind of prejudice concerning this country. For elaboration of my theoretical part I have used three guide books and one business book and for practical part I have used questionnaires. 6 CONTENT 1.

INTRODUCTION For my bachelor thesis I have chosen the topic "Awareness of Cultural Differences between Turkey and the Czech Republic" because I was working in Turkey for two summer seasons and I can say that I have some experiences concerning this topic. Turkey is a beautiful country where we can find a wonderful sea, which can be used not only for swimming but also for surfing and sailing and other activities. Turkey also has mountains where it´s possible to go hiking, cycling in the mountains and in winter time it is also possible to ski. There are many interesting places in Turkey, which tourists can also visit. This exceptional land can be visited anytime of the year. I think that Turkey is remarkable for everybody not only because of its nature, but also for its cultural heritage, and I would like to get you to know this country a little bit more. Definition od culture Every culture distinguishes itself from others by the specific solutions it chooses to certain problems which reveal themselves as dilemmas. It is convenient to look at these problems under three headings: those which arise from our relationships with other people; those which come from the passage of time;

  • CHARACTERISTICS and DISTRIBUTION of LAKES 543 Lake Van Lies in Eastern Anatolia, in Asiatic Turkey, on One of Anatolia
    CHARACTERISTICS AND DISTRIBUTION OF LAKES 543 Lake Van lies in Eastern Anatolia, in Asiatic Turkey, on one of Anatolia. the elevated plains separated by mountain ranges, in the volcanic district of Van, at a height of about 5200 feet above sea-level, and has an area of 2000 square miles. It is 80 miles long and 30 miles broad, and over 80 feet deep. The lake is said to be connected with the Euphrates through the little lake of Nazik, which lies on the water- shed between Lake Van and the river, and sends emissaries to both— a rare phenomenon. Lake of Gyoljuk, 12 miles long by 2 or 3 miles wide, lies 3 degrees west of Lake Van, at an elevation of 4000 feet among the Taurus Mountains, between the head-waters of the Euphrates and Tigris Rivers. Under present climatic conditions the lake is on the divid- ing line between a so-called " normal" fresh-water lake with a per- manent outlet and a salt lake with no outlet. In years of large rain- fall it overflows and forms one of the most remote sources of the Tigris, but in drier years the lake has no outflow during the long rain- less summer. Its waters contain borax, but the amount is not so great as to render the water undrinkable. In former times, judging by the evidence furnished by historical accounts and local traditions, Lake Gyoljuk appears to have fluctuated in size in the same manner and at the same periods as the Caspian Sea, and Ellsworth Huntington l considers that this gives good ground for believing that Turkey has undergone changes in climatic conditions similar to those which have affected Central Asia.

My name is Andre Altherr and I’ll be your Crisis Director for the Cabinet of Armenia: 1920 committee. I’m from New York City and am currently a Second Year at the University of Chicago majoring in History and Political Science. Despite once having a social life, I now spend my free-time on much tamer activities like reading 800-page books on Armenian history, reading 900-page books on Central European history, and relaxing with the best of Stephen King and 20th century sci-fi anthologies. When not reading, I enjoy hiking, watching Frasier, and trying to catch up on much needed sleep. I’ve helped run and participated in numerous Model UN conferences in both college and high school, and I believe that this activity has the potential to hone public speaking, develop your creativity and critical thinking, and ignite interest in new fields. Devin and I care very deeply about making this committee an inclusive space in which all of you feel safe, comfortable, and motivated to challenge yourself to grow as a delegate, statesperson, and human. We trust that you will conduct yourselves with maturity and tact when discussing sensitive subjects.

The arable lands and water resources of the world are rapidly becoming polluted and disappearing. Scientists think that mankind will in the near future be faced with a serious shortage of water and food. In the light of these developments, the biological diversity of a country is becoming a major strength, especially in terms of genetic resources. As a country that has vital resources for people’s food security. Turkey is one of the fortunate countries of the world from the viewpoint of biological diversity. This considerable wealth both offers our country economic opportunities and imposes upon it the responsibility to establish a conservation- utilization balance.

    Water resources and wetlands, Editors: Petre Gâştescu, William Lewis Jr., Petre Breţcan Conference Proceedings, 14-16 September 2012, Tulcea - Romania ISBN: 978-606-605-038-8 DETECTING RISKS FOR TURKEY’S WETLAND SYSTEMS IN TERMS OF RIVER FLOWS AND ENVIRONMENTAL FLOW REQUIREMENTS Ali Gul, Gulay Onusluel Gul, Aysegul Kuzucu Dokuz Eylul University, Faculty of Engineering, Department of Civil Engineering, Tinaztepe Campus, Buca, 35160, Izmir, TURKEY Abstract Wetlands in Turkey, as a significant component of the protected areas network additionally containing national parks, nature protection areas, special protection areas (SPAs) and wild-life development areas, represent a very diverse set of ecosystems. They are, however, subject to considerable risks of biodiversity loss also arising from the changes in their hydrology as an expected consequence of the breaks in their natural water regimes, due to damming of rivers, the over- use of water upstream as well as hydrologic impacts of climate change. Maintaining the full spectrum of naturally occurring flows in a river is almost impossible in Turkey’s economically competing watersheds due to catchment land- use changes and accompanying water resources development. In this regard, environmental flow requirements, which generally refer to an ecologically acceptable flow regime designed to maintain a river in an agreed or predetermined ecological state, should represent a compromise between water resources development on one hand, and river ecology maintenance on the other. Quantifying this demand, however, is a difficult task due to the lack of both the understanding of, and quantitative data on, relationships between river flows and multiple components of river ecology. The major criteria for determining environmental requirements include the maintenance of flow variability.
