About the Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre, established in 1998 by the Norwegian Refugee Council, is the leading international body monitoring conflict-induced internal displacement worldwide. Through its work, the Centre contributes to improving national and international capacities to protect and assist the millions of people around the globe who have been displaced within their own country as a result of conflicts or human rights violations. At the request of the United Nations, the Geneva-based Centre runs an online database providing comprehensive information and analysis on internal displacement in some 50 countries. Based on its monitoring and data collection activities, the Centre advocates for durable solutions to the plight of the internally displaced in line with international standards. The Internal Displacement Monitoring Centre also carries out training activities to enhance the capacity of local actors to respond to the needs of internally displaced people. In its work, the Centre cooperates with and provides support to local and national civil society initiatives.

    A. Ü. Türkiyat Araştırmaları Enstitüsü Dergisi Sayı 33 Erzurum 2007 -243- XVIII. YÜZYILDA BİTLİS SANCAĞI VE İDARECİLERİ Bitlis Province and Its Governors In 18th Century Dr. Mehmet İNBAŞI* ÖZET Bitlis, Anadolu’da Müslüman Araplar müteakiben de Türkler tarafından erken fethedilen bölgelerden birisidir. Türk-İslam hâkimiyetinin sağlanmasından sonra bölgede, dinî ve sosyal yönden büyük gelişme yaşanmıştır. Osmanlı hâkimiyetine girmesinde İdris-i Bitlisî’nin büyük rolü olmuştur. Doğuda bulunan Safevî Devleti’nin yayılmacı politikasına karşı tahkim edilen şehir, Osmanlı idaresine sadık olup bölgede etkili yerel aşiret ve kabilelerin idaresine verilmiş ve onlara hükümet statüsü altında farklı bir idare sistemi uygulanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, Bitlis sancağının idarî yapısı ile bölgede görev yapmış hanedanlar hakkında bilgiler verilmiştir. Anahtar kelimeler; Bitlis, Van Gölü havzası, sancak, hükümet sancaklar, XVIII. yüzyıl. ABSTRACT Bitlis is one of the early conquered places by Muslim Arabs and later Turks in Anatolia. After the Turkish-Islam dominance, significant religious and social developments took place in the city. İdris Bitlisi played an important role in order to put the city under the rule of Ottomans. Fortified against the imperial Safevids who are located in the east, the city always remained faithful to Ottomans and given under the rule of effective tribes and clans in the region by applying a different government system. In this study, information about the ruling system and about the dynasties is given. Keywords: Bitlis, Van Lake, Sandjak, Province, Governing provinces, 18th Century. uruluşu ve adının kökeni hakkında kesin bilgiler bulunmayan Bitlis, K Büyük İskender’e atfedilen bir efsaneye göre onun kumandanlarından Badlis tarafından inşa edilen kalenin etrafında kurulmuştur. Sasanîler ve Romalılar arsında ihtilaf konusu olan bölge, birçok defa el değiştirmiş, daha sonra Doğu Roma İmparatorluğu’nun sınırları içinde kalmıştır.

  • Violence Against Women: Prevalence and Risk Factors in Turkish Sample Selma Sen* and Nursen Bolsoy
    Sen and Bolsoy BMC Women's Health (2017) 17:100 DOI 10.1186/s12905-017-0454-3 RESEARCHARTICLE Open Access Violence against women: prevalence and risk factors in Turkish sample Selma Sen* and Nursen Bolsoy Abstract Background: This study reports on a large cross-sectional study of violence against women in Turkey, and outlines the risk factors associated with intimate partner violence. The purpose of this study was to identify in order to evaluate the domestic violence against women living in Manisa and to determine the risk factors affecting this situation. Methods: We implemented a cross-sectional descriptive study in the Manisa province of Turkey. The research data were collected by using a “Women’s Information Form” consisting of 32 items, and “Scale of Domestic Violence Against Women”. The study was conducted with 1760 women who complied with the inclusion criteria. Results: It was determined that score averages of 30.0% of women from the scale of domestic violence against women were above the score average of the scale (71.38 ± 10.71) and they were exposed to violence more than the others. A statistically significant difference was obtained in the statistical analysis made between score averages from the scale of domestic violence against women and such variables as age, education, employment status, social insurance, immigration status, place of residence, marital age, year of marriage of women; age, education status, employment status of husband; and whether the husband has another wife (p < 0.05). Conclusions: It was also found out that the rate of domestic violence against women is high, women does not perceive many behaviors of their husbands as violence, and the most important factor leading to this situation is social status.

  • Interpreting the PKK's Signals in Europe
    PERSPECTIVES ON TERRORISM Volume II, Issue 11 Interpreting the PKK’s Signals in Europe By Vera Eccarius-Kelly ince the Kurdish Worker’s Party (PKK) unexpectedly abducted three German hikers near Mt. Ararat in Turkey on 8 July 2008, and then released them on 20 July, intelligence sources in Europe have in- tensified their surveillance of PKK operatives among members of the particularly numerous Kurdish S Diaspora in Germany.[1] According to German newspaper reports, the PKK demanded that in ex- change for the release of the hikers “Berlin stop its hostile politics towards the Kurds and the PKK in Ger- many”.[2] While the exact purpose of the abduction requires further analysis, it is clear that it was the armed branch of the PKK, known as the People’s Defense Forces (HPG), that kidnapped the German hikers at their Mt. Ararat encampment at 10,500 feet in the evening hours—only to release them unharmed some two weeks later.[3] Questions Related to an Abduction Several questions preoccupy security analysts in relation to this abduction. How should this event be inter- preted in Europe, and particularly in Germany? What signals did the PKK send? And, most importantly, is the PKK entering a renewed phase of high intensity activism and terrorism in Europe? This essay aims to provide a brief analysis of the often confusing and contradictory messages sent by European Kurdish circles.[4] Despite convoluted interpretations of Kurdish demands that are linked to a lack of unity among the many Kurdish organizations in Europe, it is possible to disentangle the underlying messages.
