Özet
This study intends to identify the thoughts of tradesmen active in commerce directed towards smuggling, which constitutes a crime in accordance with the Anti-Smuggling Act No. 5607 and was passed on March 21, 2007, as well as to reveal the relationship between their perception of the variables of Islamic work ethics and love of money. In this context, the provincial center in Alanya was identified as an important tourist destination in the universe of the research, as well as having an intensity of trade operations. Because the whole of the research universe could not be reached, 384 samples were determined to be necessary for them to go and arrive at the path of specification. Easy sampling was preferred; 510 questionnaires were distributed as a quantitative data collection technique, and 498 usable questionnaires were investigated in the context of the research. According to the research results, the participants had high levels of perceptions related to the smuggling of many commercial products. However, the participants had perceptions in the direction that smuggling was done by those who came to Alanya to work, especially from outside; smuggling took place overland; and smuggling is done because of the economic benefits it provides and the fines are not a deterrent. When looking at the relationship between the variables, the perception of Islamic work ethics affected the change in perception towards smuggling being a bad behavior. Additionally, the dimensions of love of money (good and budget) were determined as variables that also significantly explained changes in the perception of smuggling.
