Empirical investigation of owner-occupiers' reinvestments in housing: the case of Ankara, Turkey Özdemir Sarı, Özgül Burcu (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2014-03-01) In Turkey, reinvestments in the existing housing stock are entirely dependent on households' decisions in the free market. There are no policies to consider reinvestment processes, and the body of knowledge on households' reinvestment decisions is scant. Understanding how individual reinvestment decisions are determined is vital to devise policy measures to improve the condition of the existing housing stock and neighbourhoods. In this study, an attempt is made to identify the basic motivations and factors ...

Designing the heterotopia: from social ideology to spatial morphology Çalışkan, Olgu; Cihanger Ribeiro, Duygu; Tümtürk, Onur (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-03-01) The established binary oppositions like 'modern vs. traditional' or 'urban vs. rural' fall short either to comprehend or to (re)generate cultural complexity of the contemporary societies.

Following explicit police violence against the protestors, who were openly discredited by the government for being a few looters, the urban centers of Turkey saw a full-fledged uprising, gathering considerable international steam as...
Globalization and urban governance in Istanbul Uzun, Cemile Nil (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-03-01) Since the 1980s, the topic of governance has been extensively investigated in parallel with the effects of globalization on policy issues. Meanwhile, there has been an increasing fragmentation of responsibilities in the urban arena. Now, the main focus is on new institutional relations and the policy process in which different constituents and agencies participate at both the national and the local level. As a result of the rescaling process of the state, networked forms of governance constitute a new form ...
