In this thesis building an integrated policy view on the peasant question and the necessities of the structural transformation of development, a multidimensional policy analysis is carried out on Turkish agricultural policies with special emphasis on the period after 1980. The peasant question is classified into two approaches in the literature as; “disappearance” and “persistence”. The disappearance approach declares that with the industrialization, globalization and commodification particularly by the introduction of the neoliberal policies, “modern capitalist agriculture” or “agribusiness” replaces the peasant mode of production called as “depeasantization” and this process is accompanied with “deagrarianization”. On the other hand, the persistence approach is defined in a different logic that the peasants are sustaining and reproducing themselves despite all obstacles. Based on these two approaches, the Development Plans are examined using the qualitative content analysis method. Moreover, the discourses used in the minutes of Grand National Assembly of Türkiye since 1960 are analyzed. Turkish agricultural policies have been changed in the direction of three dimensions; Turkish politics in particular the political power and opposition, the public policies and administration reforms and efforts to alignment with the EU Common Agriculture Policy and structural funds. The reflections of the historical changes and reforms have had influences on policy actors and on peasants. In this context, the peasant question and agrarian transformation are the main questions through which continuities/discontinuities and integrations/bifurcations are tried to be clarified within the context of public policy, polity and politics dimensions.

The role of regional policies along with the external and endogenous factors in the resilience of regions
Eraydın, Ayda (2016-03-01)
This article aims to discuss the importance of the different policies and measures defined by governments in the resilience of regions, besides their connectedness to the global economic system and their endogenous capacities. The article explores the importance of different attributes in the resilience of Turkish regions (26 NUTS II regions) in the last two recessionary shocks and in the following recovery periods. By analysing the role of regional policies in the resilience of regions in two distinct peri...
Changing modalities of urban redevelopment and housing finance in Turkey: Three mass housing projects in Ankara
Topal Yılmaz, Aylin; Yalman, Galip L.; Celik, Ozlem (2019-07-04)
This study aims to critically analyze the transformation of the Turkish state's role in urban redevelopment and housing finance by focusing on 3 mass housing projects from Ankara in 3 different historical political conjunctures. The analysis reveals that the Turkish state, with its peculiar institutional artifices, not only creates rent gaps in varying forms but also increasingly coordinates appropriation of them. This involved not only reformulation of strategies to cope with the social problem of continui...
THE REGIONALIZATION DILEMMA OF TURKISH FOREIGN POLICY IN THE 1990s: THE SYSTEMIC IMPACT APPROACH IN MIDDLE POWER THEORY
Topal, Merve; Tür Küçükkaya, Özlem; Department of International Relations (2021-10-26)
This dissertation aims to explain the compelling impact of the rising regional issues in the post-1990s on Turkey's middle power status through the lenses of the systemic impact approach in middle power theory and the regionalization concept. The Systemic Impact Approach takes systemic influence as the essential indicator of the middle power status and provides an outcome-oriented perspective on middle powers. This thesis first explains Turkey’s rise to middle power status as it adopted its foreign policy t...
The sustainability analysis of Turkish domestic debt
Alkan, Feyza; Öcal, Nadir; Department of Economics (2009)
In this thesis, sustainability of the Turkish domestic debt is analyzed within the “sustainability indicators” perspective. The fiscal targets of Maastricht Treaty (1992) are imposed on the Turkish fiscal policy and it is investigated whether these targets are the indicators for sustainability in the medium term. Uctum and Wickens’ (2000) methodology is followed in assessing the sustainability of the current fiscal policy and the efficiency of the Maastricht Treaty (1992) targets. Moreover, the vector auto ...
The transformation of old industrial district of Ankara and political actors
Saner, Mehmet; Cengizkan, Ali; Department of Architecture (2004)

Investigating the significant reasons for its incompleteness, the study will concentrate on the intrinsic dynamics of this process, and particularly on such important contributions of its political actors. The aims of the study are to figure out the roles of political actors in urban transformations, and to evaluate the position of architectural production within such processes...
