Öğe Artificial Intelligence Integration in Sustainable Business Practices: A Text Mining Analysis of USA Firms(MDPI, 2024) Balcioglu, Yavuz Selim; Celik, Ahmet Alkan; Altindag, ErkutArtificial Intelligence (AI) is transforming sustainable business strategies globally, yet its specific applications within American enterprises remain underexplored. This study examines the integration of AI in sustainability efforts across various industries in the USA from 2014 to 2022. By analyzing 263 sustainability reports from 41 leading Nasdaq-listed firms using advanced text mining techniques, we uncover nuanced insights into how AI is employed to address environmental and social challenges. Our findings reveal a strategic deployment of AI not only to enhance operational efficiency, but also to drive significant environmental improvements, such as optimizing renewable energy usage and mitigating emissions. Additionally, AI's impact extends to fostering workplace safety, enhancing diversity, and bolstering community initiatives. This research highlights the critical role of AI as a catalyst in advancing sustainable practices, providing a blueprint for other regions and industries aiming to leverage technology for greater sustainability.Öğe Corruption and Economic Freedom in Central Asian Republics (2001-2008)(David Publishing Company, 2011) Sozen, Ilyas; Sari, Selahattin; Celik, Ahmet AlkanThe aim of this study is to examine the progress of economic freedom and corruption during the period between two global economic crises in those Central Asian Republics which have been integrated into the free market economy according to “the Washington Consensus” since the late 1990s. With respect to the exportation of natural resources, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Turkmenistan together with Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan all seem to have entirely different economic structures. In this paper, the majority of macro-economic variables, economic freedom indicators and corruption data covering the period of 2001-2008 will be discussed. In the light of the outcomes of this study, it is observed that while the social structure in those countries exporting natural resources is stronger, bureaucratic corruption increases consistently in all of the countries due to the authoritarian structures (of the countries concerned). As Central Asian Republics are in a state of failed transition into market economy, the betterment in legislation does not debug the so-called “limbo” system, which refers to neither a planned economy nor a free market one.Öğe Human Development Index in Central Asian Countries(Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 2012) Ongel, Volkan; Sozen, Ilyas; Celik, Ahmet Alkan[Abstract Not Available]Öğe Orta Asya Cumhuriyetlerinde Yolsuzluk ve İktisadi Özgürlük (2001–2008)(Beykent Üniversitesi, 2010) Sozen, Ilyas; Celik, Ahmet Alkan; Sari, SelahattinThe aim of this study is to examine, in the period between two global economic crises, the progress of economic freedom along with corruptions in Central Asian Republics, integrated into the free market economy according to “the Washington Consensus” since late 1990s.

In this respect, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan and Kyrgyzstan in Middle Asian Region had chosen development as primary target in 20 years time after their independence. Human capital is the leading factor to maintain economic development and growth. Development and growth terms over which different meanings and concepts were imposed in time, necessitated several political economic alterations. Before 1970’s, increase in income had been sufficient criterion for the development of a government. But nowadays economic development incorporates factors such as life expectancy at birth, school enrolment ratio, literancy rate, gender discrimination, poverty alleviation, equal distribution of income beyond economic growth. Herewith this change political preference and priorities has started to differentiate. The aim of this study is to discuss human development index (HDI) data of 5 Middle Asian countries in 2010 and changes in HDI in years after their independence. Comparisan between Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and HDI rates are also performed within this analysis. This study consists of data of 5 Middle Asian countries between years 1990-2010. Basic, retrospective, illustrative library method is used as the study method. In conclusion, we find that increase in GDP did not reflect over HDI in Middle Asian Countries within 20- years period.
