    Kuşaklararası değişimin örgütlerarası ağ düzenekleri yapılanmasına etkisi
    (Başkent Üniversitesi Sosyal Bilimler Enstitüsü, 2013) Erdem Tuzlukaya, Şule; Sargut, A. Selami
    This Ph.D. dissertation aims to clarify the issues relating to the evolution of networks. In the literature on the Social Network Theory, there is a lack of dynamic perspective. In particular, the salient feature in the wide literature pertaining to the antecedents and outcomes of networks is that the studies handling the structure and positions of actors of networks with a static approach are numerous. The result of this is that the focus point of theoretical and empirical studies is unilateral; and the issue of change usually remains outside the focus in network studies. In consideration of this shortcoming, this thesis study, investigates the interorganizational network structuring through the concept of change, which is overlooked in network theory research. By focusing on static properties of networks, it is possible to obtain limited information. Therefore, it is of utmost importance to analyze networks from a dynamic perspective and to assess how the networks have evolved. A prominent reason for the issue of change to receive less attention in the social network studies is the need for data obtained from long-term and longitudinal analyses to conduct such research. In this regard, with the aim to contribute to the literature by filling such gap, this research has been structured on the basis of the main proposition that the evolution of the dominant economic actors and boards of directors in organizations, in other words, the intergenerational changes in organizations, would alter the characteristics of network relations at the interorganizational level. An important contribution of this study is to provide an explanation to the evolution of the network structures and the positions of actors in particular. Considering change of network structures, connections of previous and current network structures are in an interpenetrated state. Organizations make an important impact on network structures when they hand down all their interactions and experiences on previous network structures the next generations. In this vein, for testing the hypotheses of this study, first of all large family businesses that have reached their third generation are chosen. Accordingly, of these organizations, the interorganizational network relations of the representatives of the first, second and third generations are identified. Afterwards, the dominant economic actors representing each generation were compared. The results supported the main hypotheses and the objective of this study. Results of the analysis support suggestions of the study and reveal that intergenerational change in V organizations have an impact on the change of characteristics of interorganizational network structures. It is found that intergenerational change in organizations reduces the rate of strong relations at the interorganizational level; intergenerational change increases the number of brokers in network relations at the interorganizational level; the ratio of the positioning of the members of the Board of Directors at the center in the network as well as the ratio of brokerage increase.

    Sosyal Ağdüzeneği Kuramı Çalışmaları: Yönetim ve İşletme Alanlarına Dair Bibliyometrik Bir Analiz
    (Başkent Üniversitesi İktisadi ve İdari Bilimler Fakültesi, 2019) Erdem Tuzlukaya, Şule
    Bu çalışmanın amacı, bibliyometrik yöntem kullanarak, sos- yal ağdüzeneği kuramı ile ilgili akademik yazının mevcut du- rumunu ve gelişimini izlemek, alanda var olan ilişkisel ağları tespit etmektir. Çalışmada 1993-2020 yılları arasında Web of Science veritabanında “sosyal ağdüzeneği kuramı” konu baş- lığı altında bulunan ve 165 farklı kaynaktan oluşan 245 çalış- ma, toplam 13,039 kaynakça üzerinden yönetim ve işletme kategorilerine odaklanılarak incelenmektedir. Çalışmaların in- celenmesinde, önde gelen araştırmacılar, en çok odaklanılan kavramlar, ortak oluşum ağları, atıf alan çalışmalar ve araş- tırmacılar, araştırmaların yürütüldüğü ülkeler ve diğer hangi ülkelerin ve kurumların işbirliği halinde olduklarına dair tara- malar gerçekleştirilmiştir. Sonuçlar yönetim ve işletme alanla- rında sosyal ağdüzeneği kuramı çalışmalarında artış olduğu- nu ortaya koymaktadır. Performans ve inovasyon konularına daha fazla yer verildiği, çalışmaların önemli oranının ise örgüt- ler arası ilişkilere odaklandığı görülmektedir. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the current status and development of the academic literature related to social network theory, by using bibliometric method and to iden- tify the relational networks existing in the field. In the study, 245 studies, which consisted of 165 different sources under the title of “social network theory” in the Web of Science database between 1993-2020, are examined by focusing on management and business categories over a total of 13,039 references. For evaluting the studies, leading researchers, the most focused concepts, networks of collaboration, cited stu- dies and researchers, the countries in which the research is conducted, and which other countries and institutions are in cooperation were examined. The results reveal that there is an increase in the studies of social network theory in the fields of management and business. It is seen that there is more emphasis on performance and innovation, and a significant proportion of studies focus on inter-organizational relations.
