Nowadays, the increasing competition is forcing companies to make more consistent and accurate decisions about supplier selection. When the paper production sector is discussed, cellulose which is the main raw material for paper production is obtained from various suppliers. In addition, the supplier selection decision has a complex structure that includes many qualitative and quantitative criteria and a large number of decision makers. By the way, there are feedback and mutual interactions within the problem. For these reasons, Analytical Network Process method has been preferred as a solution method in this study. Using the relevant method, four different alternative suppliers have been evaluated in terms of the four most commonly used criteria (quality, price, delivery and service) in the literature and the sub-criteria of these criteria and the best alternative has been chosen.

The purpose of this paper is to describe the GENERATIVE method, a methodology for promoting change in human systems (i.e., contexts involving human interactions, such as organizations, communities, institutions). The first part of the paper is focused on the description of the interactionist and constructionist epistemological background adopted. The second is dedicated to the presentation of human systems as socially constructed realities. The third part is dedicated to the description of the three recursive steps of the GENERATIVE methodology: The system analysis, the negotiation and redefinition of goals and the pragmatic intervention. Finally, the presentation of the methodological steps is critically discussed in order to show how this methodology is particularly useful and effective in promoting change in human systems. The paper aims to provide insights and guidelines to professionals, practitioners and consultants working in contexts involving human interactions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Within the gender-development discourse, there have been widespread concerns in relation to the neglect of women in benefitting from the process and outcomes of development. This has led in part to the proliferation of policy programming designed for women to achieve gender equality while ensuring that women benefit proportionally from development. However the extent to which gender-based interventions will succeed in relation to their aims will depend inter alia on how such programmes view other members (men) of the household. This paper critically examines the consequences of men's omission from gender-development theory and practice. We draw our discussion on the theoretical and empirical literature by focusing on two gender-based programmes i.e., microfinance schemes and HIV/AIDs interventions that have been implemented widely across the developing world with the aim of transforming gender relations and addressing gender subordination. We argue that in isolating men from gender based development programmes, interventions may fail to tackle the root causes of women's subordinate position in society. Central to our argument lies the fact that women's lives are embedded within the wider socio-cultural dynamics and power structures and thus the lack of critical assessment of these elements may act as potential constraining factors hindering the success of these programmes. Besides, though it is undisputed that women have been underprivileged, the insipient emergence of "men in crisis" in development discourse may suggest that policies have not benefited all men either. The paper concludes with recommendations in improving the design of gender based programmes in efforts towards addressing the plight of women. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Stratified random sampling technique was used to consider 265 respondents from twenty eight private commercial banks. A pre-tested and close-ended questionnaire adapting five-point Likert scale was used for data collection. In this study, descriptive statistics and exploratory factor analysis are exercised as statistical tools. The result shows that employee's individual attributes, top management support, compatibility, IT infrastructure and industry pressure are important factors that influencing management decision to adopt e-HRM among banks.

Agglomeration economies are considered as the driving force behind the development of mega cities and large cities/regions, which are the most successful regions in world economy. According to "New Economic Geography" stream, externalities are approached as static and dynamic externalities. Dynamic externalities are classified as "Marshall (1891) - Arrow (1962) - Romer (1986, 1990) (MAR), Porter (1990) and Jacobs (1969)" by Glaeser et al. (1992). Dynamic externalities come out by the emergence of local knowledge and by strengthening communication among economic actors in the long term. Knowledge spillover also accelerates via strengthening of communication. This paper investigates whether agglomeration externalities affected regional growth in Turkey at the NUTS 3 level during the period 2010 - 2016 by using sectoral employment growth. The results of the study show that effect of MAR (Marshall-Arrow- Romer) externalities is found to be negative as they are in the studies done through the data of most of the countries. It is concluded that unrelated variety (JACOBS) has no effect on employment growth. Coefficients in most of the sectors are seen to be positive in PORTER externalities. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
