State tradition and business in Turkey: The Case of TUSIAD
Doğangün, Gökten; Yalman, Osman Galip; Department of Political Science and Public Administration (2005)
This thesis attempts to make an analysis of the state tradition perspective by particularly focusing on the relations between the state and big bourgeoisie represented by TÜSİAD in the post-1980 period. As this perspective has been hegemonic in discourse in examining state-society relations in Turkey in recent decades, thereby dominating the political, academic, and business circles, it becomes very important for Turkish politics students to understand what is implied by this phrase in order to conceive the...

In this context, the conception of the reformulation of this relation...
STATE-LED RURAL TRANSFORMATION: THE CASE OF YUKARIKÖY
Onaran, Ayşenur; Basa, İnci; Department of Architecture (2022-7-04)
While much has been written about TOKİ’s (The Housing Development Administration of Turkey) actions in cities as part of neoliberal urbanization projects, not much has been said about its practices in rural areas.

I focus on Yukarıköy, a village in Çanakkale with a population around 700 people, which had gone through several destructive e...
