    How Did The Battlefield At Gallipoli Become A Tourist Site? Epic Tourism
    (2022) Okumus, Fevzi; Eser, Zeliha; Koseoglu, Mehmet Ali
    ???Thanatourism??? refers to the management and organization of activities by people who visit death sites. This concept, however, does not sufficiently explain the management and organization of activities for people who want to see and feel the history of victories and epics won by their ancestors to secure the future for coming generations. This study introduces a new approach that includes people motivated to visit death sites for epic-focused tourism by analyzing the hundreds of thousands of Turks who visit Gallipoli every year.

    Counterfeit Supply Chains
    (2015) Eser, Zeliha; Kurtulmusoglu, Bahar; Bicaksiz, Adnan; Sumer, Selay Ilgaz
    This paper studies supply chains of counterfeits in Turkey based on insider information from actors in such chains as well as from knowledgeable witnesses. The study depends on semi-structured interviews with actors in or witnesses to such chains. Findings suggest that (i) various forms of counterfeit supply chains exist, (ii) profit margins of counterfeiters seem to be higher than legitimate businesses, (iii) counterfeiters are discouraged if they experience actual or threatened litigation, (iv) law enforcement places higher priority on fighting counterfeits that threaten public health and safety, and (v) counterfeits appear to drive down the prices of legitimate products. Overall, poor action by legitimate businesses against counterfeiters, weak institutional efforts on the part of law enforcement and low consumer awareness appear to foster counterfeit supply chains, or at least contribute to their persistence.
