Migration and migration movements, which are as old as human history, continue to increase today. Attractive factors such as transportation developments, compulsory factors such as poverty, conflict, war in certain regions, better living facilities in the developed region and countries, education, health and work cause thousands of people to leave their countries and settle in other countries every year. With this change, it has become imperative to produce social, cultural, economic, demographic, political, ethnic and religious social policies and strategies in the countries that receive immigration, especially for migrants and their families. In addition, illegal ways or war, exile, violence, disasters, etc. If these migration movements have occurred for some reason, it is possible to see consequences such as deaths, diseases, cultural conflicts and security problems. For this reason, it is necessary to thoroughly know, manage, sustainable policies and institutional measures to resolve the effects of immigration on individuals, families, countries and societies. Immigrant integration includes such things as cultural, political, social, legal, academic and vocational education and employment, health and general integration indicators. In general, the migration problem seems to be a responsibility that should be solved by the central administrations of the countries in general, but it is seen that urban and urban administrations are the ones most affected by immigration in particular. The places where the immigrants are located firstly affect the structure of the cities which are the centers of the cities and their surroundings, and they bring significant burdens and responsibilities to the local administrations in the short, medium and long term. In this problematic work, how the central government's social adaptation decisions towards the Syrian refugees are applied at the local level and the social reflections will be analyzed in a descriptive way in the context of the basic elements that constitute the migration policies and strategies.

They are mostly preferred since they bring an end to many limitations such as time, place, and financial barriers. Thanks to this emerging education type, options regarding the countries one wants to get a good education from are also various as it is easier to find out that high-quality education is not limited to 3-4 certain countries. Cultural diplomacy is one of the main areas countries function to gain more soft power. It is an important part of diplomacy that needs to be studied in detail and planned ahead as it gives not only short term but also long term results. International e-learning is to be included in cultural diplomacy techniques as it is closely related to country image and branding. This paper aims to analyze international e-learning programmes within the framework of cultural diplomacy. After a brief literature review on e-learning programmes and cultural diplomacy, the relationship of these two terms is to be analyzed to be able to present a road map on what should and should not be done to gain soft power via high-quality e-learning education.

Comments, blogs, articles, pictures, videos, maxims, slogans etc., shared in social media are mostly related to needs rather than values. Here, consumption culture disguises itself as a value by means of various codes to create needs. At this point, Youtube channels as a means of social media provide content to people according to their needs and tastes. In addition, people might feel themselves somewhat obliged to make a choice between their needs and values. The future of social networks and the sphere of influence precede the domain itself. How would it be possible in the open-ended comprehension and interpretation domain of social networks to maintain how much and what children need during their socialization process as ardent users of the Internet, what is valuable and how the values as principles leading to ethical existence can be adopted? As one of the instruments of socialisation, which influences culture policy, social media shapes the value judgments of children as well. Therefore, the contents of Youtube channels as a means of social media particularly towards children should be critically studied with regard to the use of social values, because such social media and the Internet contents not only influence, but also change and transform the current cultural policies. In this regard, the purpose of this study is to analyse the cultural discourses transforming socialisation and value formation with respect to the Youtube channels that children watch the most in Turkey.

Within the frame of this relationship, they reflect their roles, social positions, creativity, discourses and stories to them. As another point is whether the discourses of female politicians sustain the existing sexist structure or administer a transformation in a positive sense. The problems concerning women can be listed as Physical and psychological violence, lack of education, marriage at a young age, adverse health conditions, inadequate employment and such. Women need to develop consciousness about these issues and have a cognitive competence in terms of what rights they have and how to reach them. Thus, women will be able to act on their own political decisions in these matters. The purpose of this study is to show how women parliamentarians, as a political resource, one of the four elements that are effective in political participation of the individuals, encourage women to inform and participate and how they direct them about the issues and problems they will participate. In this context, a discourse analysis of twelve members of the ruling party and the main opposition party's female parliamentarians on the social media will be conducted for the twelve accounts between January 1 and April 1 2018.

Reklam, toplumun kadına, kadın imgesine bakış açısını şekillendirmektedir. Bu bakış açısı ile kadına reklam söyleminin anlamlandırması aracılığıyla yapay bir kimlik yüklenmekte, güç ve statü ilişkileri olumsuzlanmaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında, kadının simgesel olarak kurgulandığı, reklamın yüzey yapısı ile asıl ideolojik iletinin kurgulandığı derin yapı karşılaştırmalı olarak incelenmiştir. Bu çerçevede, iktidar, hegemonya, haz, bilinç, ideoloji, kültür ve mit gibi kavramlar esas alınmıştır.

This study aims to emphasize the gradually increasing need for intercultural communication theory and practices within the framework of mass media, social media, and interactivity. After a brief introduction regarding the concept of intercultural communication and how it has evolved as a key term for globalization and global businesses, the impact of mass media and rising new media technologies on intercultural dialogue will be explained in detail. This study intends to focus especially on intercultural communication and the media. With the rise of globalization, it is no longer possible to consider it as a merely economic or technological process. Increased interaction among people from different parts of the world, free flow of information throughout the web, and cultural interdependence are all signs showing that globalization has a cultural level that is rather difficult to cope up with. Throughout the study, effects of globalization and rising new technologies will be explained in detail regarding the issues and challenges that await to be handled within the framework of intercultural dialogue and the changes the media has undergone.

Besides fostering knowledge, it also helps create an educational environment where more people have equal access to educational sources. This study intends to look at the past and possible future of student mobility. Student mobility programmes are examined as degree mobility, credit mobility and transnational education, following a brief history of
student mobility. Then, considering the fact that student mobility has also been called “multicultural education”, the student mobility process is analysed within
the framework of globalisation, communication technologies, and intercultural communication. The study concludes that as a result of the developments in
information and communication technologies, it is necessary to make various reforms in education policies as well as in politics, economics and socio-cultural politics so that student mobility can foster global cooperation and empowerment in the long run.
