By the date of March 30th of 2014, law no 6360 has come into force that extends the responsibilities of Metropolitan Municipalities to the provincial administrative boundaries. This extension creates new responsibilities for Metropolitan Municipalities regarding environmental services including solid waste management. The aim of this study is (a) to develop new political tools that Metropolitan Municipalities will need to fulfill their obligations under this new law in the area of solid waste management, and (b) to consider possible alternative solid waste management scenarios. In this context, a solid waste management system model was established for Ankara Metropolitan Municipality and four different solid waste management scenarios were examined on this model. Scenario-1 considers the management system, which was in force before the new law. Scenario-2 considers the establishment of a transfer station to every peripheral district, Scenario-3 considers the establishment of a sanitary landfill to every peripheral district and Scenario-4 considers the establishment of sanitary landfills for grouped peripheral districts. The scenarios were analyzed economically and the costs that would occur for 20 years were compared over the net present value. Within the concept of sustainable development, Scenario-4 was selected as the best that brings the responsibilities of the Law No. 6360. In order to implement the selected solid waste management scenario, the policy instruments needed by the Ankara Metropolitan Municipality were developed.

Provisions for the Seismic Risk Evaluation of Existing Reinforced Concrete Buildings in Turkey under the Urban Renewal Law Binici, Barış; Yakut, Ahmet (SAGE Publications, 2015-08-01) A law known as the "Urban Renewal Law" for risk mitigation was passed in Turkey in May 2012. The major focus of the law is to reduce the expected seismic risk due to the vulnerability of existing buildings. For this purpose, new provisions are set forth to investigate and to classify seismically vulnerable residential buildings as quickly as possible. Afterward, such deficient buildings are demolished, and new buildings are constructed through the financing options provided by the government. Although the s...
A critical approach to the evaluation of the establishment of provinces in the Turkish pblic administration system Aktan, Ali Şahin; Şengül, Hüseyin Tarık; Department of Urban Policy Planning and Local Governments (2006) The establishment of new provinces, as administrative divisions of central government, is based on the criteria and principles stated in the Constitution and the Provincial Administration Act numbered 5442. It is argued that the principles in the legislation are not sufficient and objective for establishing provinces. The number of the provinces began to increase after the multiparty period, dated 1946, and gained momentum after 1980s. The aim of this thesis is to explore the justification of the establishm...
Tourism and governance in Turkey Goymen, K (Elsevier BV, 2000-10-01) Tourism is speedily changing form, process, and structure. As a result of the globalization of its supply and demand, many countries have felt the need to reconsider related structures and processes, including the specific role of the state. This study indicates that tourism in Turkey developed in stages, constantly interacting with political, social,and economic components of the polity. During most of these stages, the state played a dominant role. But since the 80s, the dynamics of governance has trigger...
Comparison of an Emerging Seat of Arbitration and Leading Arbitration Seats and Recommendations for Reform Birgönül, Mustafa Talat; Dikmen Toker, İrem (2018-02-01) Arbitration is an increasingly popular alternative form of resolution for construction disputes. After the establishment of the Istanbul Arbitration Center, the question of whether international parties would prefer it instead of other popular venues has arisen. Previous studies have found that the reasons for preferring one seat of arbitration over others are strongly related to judicial attitudes toward arbitration and the legal infrastructure. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to compare the Turkish le...
VISUAL AND TEXTUAL FEATURE FUSION FOR AUTOMATIC CUSTOMS TARIFF CLASSIFICATION Turhan, Bilgehan; Akar, Gözde; TURHAN, ÇİĞDEM; Yuksel, Cihan (2015-08-15) The Harmonized Tariff Schedule for the classification of goods is a major determinant of customs duties and taxes. The basic HS Code is 6 digits long but can be extended according to the needs of the countries such as application of custom duties based on details of the product. Finding the correct, consistent, legally defensible HS Code is at the heart of Import Compliance. However finding the best code can be complicated, especially in the case of specialized products. In this paper, we propose an automat...
