Large investments made because of high tourism revenues in touristic destinations can threaten balanced growth, ecological sensitivity and sustainable tourism principles. To raise awareness of this situation and draw attention to unsustainable tourism approaches, this study is presented with the situation approach method. The main purpose of this research is to determine the negative effects of unsustainable tourism approaches in tourist destinations. In this context, case studies are frequently used and are the preferred qualitative research method. The Historical Peninsula of Istanbul, Bodrum, Uzungöl and Hasankeyf, which will be examined in line with the principles of sustainable tourism, are understood to be damaged in four basic categories: unplanned construction, sound pollution, exposure to environmental destruction and overtourism pressure. The results of unsustainable tourism approaches are seen in these regions, which are more and more negatively affected by the increasing number of tourists and unconscious tourism policies. Contrary to scientific studies that generally focus on sustainable tourism policies, this study reveals the mistakes made with case approach evidence and develops some ideas for the solution to the problem. It also has remarkable results in terms of showing the obstacles in front of sustainability.
With the increasing importance of communication in human life, the importance of this field has increased. On the other hand, communication is equally important for destinations with high competition. The destination needs effective communication resources to maintain its current existence and development. In this context, the aim of this research is to reveal the effect of the use of communication tools that are frequently used today, such as social media, on the promotion of the destination. Within the scope of the research, the social media accounts of the top organizations that play a key role in the promotion of the destination were examined by content analysis, one of the qualitative analysis methods. The research findings were limited to the province of Şanlıurfa and were obtained from the social media accounts of the organizations that are effective in the promotion of the destination. In the light of these data, it is seen that although the promotion of the destination is tried to be conducted well in Instagram and Twitter accounts, other social media accounts are insufficient in this regard. In addition to developing a different approach to the related field, this research provides original information since such a study related to the destination has not been conducted before.
In recent years, it has been seen that technology-based tools have started to take place frequently in our daily lives. This situation is more prominent in organizations such as food and beverage producing human-oriented services. With the increase in technological awareness, it is observed that the tendency of individuals who are curious about creativity and innovation towards businesses that provide smart robotic services is increasing. The aim of this research is to determine the effect of attitude and acceptability of the use of robots in restaurants on behavioral intention. In line with the purpose of the research, relationships were determined with the help of data obtained from the scales developed on the subject. Based on the literature review, five hypotheses were developed. Relationships were tested with the path analysis created within the scope of structural equation modelling. The acceptability of robot use in restaurants by customers has a significant positive effect on behavioral intention, and this variable has the greatest effect on behavioral intention. In addition, "experience" and "advantage" dimensions of attitude towards robot use have significant positive effects, "disadvantage" dimension has a negative effect on behavioral intention. Lastly, according to R-square, 82.6% of behavioural intention is explained by attitudes and acceptability towards the use of robots in restaurants.
