Bayırbağ, Mustafa Kemal (null; 2016-03-02)
This paper will argue that governance of mobility is the most challenging, and yet the most important task a political authority is to undertake if it is to exist. Territoriality, as a set of spatially constituted political control strategies (over a given population as well as the resources located on a piece of land), is there to ensure that mobilities remain under the control of a given political authority. Yet, this control is a fragile one and is to be reproduced on a continuous basis. There are also n...

Güryay, İlkay; Günel, Mehmet Halis; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2012)

Institutional framework for urban development with co-benefits: the Indian experience
Doll, Christopher N. H.; Dreyfus, Magali; Ahmad, Sohail; Balaban, Osman (Elsevier BV, 2013-11-01)
The co-benefits approach has been proposed as a means for mainstreaming environmental concerns into urban development, especially in developing countries. This paper reviews the Indian situation setting out the urban-environmental challenge. National policies related to urban development, climate change and specific sectors are examined and then, with the aid of cases, analysed to understand the strengths and weaknesses of generating co-benefits in the world's second most populous country.
Governing Urban Diversity: Creating Social Cohesion, Social Mobility and Economic Performance in Today's Hyper-diversified Cities (DIVERCITIES)
Eraydın, Ayda(2017-1-28)
The central hypothesis of this project is that socio-economic, socio-demographic, ethnic and cultural diversity can positively affect social cohesion, economic performance and social mobility of individuals and groups. A better social cohesion, higher economic performance and increased chances for social mobility will make European cities more liveable and more competitive. In this period of long-term economic downturn (or sometimes even crisis) and increasing competition from countries elsewhere in the wor...
