DergiPark: 326005 ; trakyasobed ; Even though it has been rather a lot studied that to what extent participation to politics is occurred with regard to general politics, the studies relating to levels and means of political participation at local level remains relatively weak. This paper aspires to reveal the aspects of participation of voters to local politics in Edirne. In parallel with this goal, firstly, certain qualitative and quantitative characteristics of voters are specified, such as age, gender, level of income, level of education. Then, the relation between these characteristics and political participation at local level is tried to be proved by some hypothesis tests. The results suggested that the higher the level of education or the level of income, the more intensive the participation to local politics. It is also deduced that political participation of voters differs according to neighbourhood they settle in. The evaluation of political participation is based on A. Robert Dahl's typology of political participation picked out amongst others in the literature and questionnaire form tried to be generated in accordance with the typology ; Siyasete katılımın ne boyutta gerçekleştiği genel siyaset açısından oldukça araştırılmış olmasına rağmen, yerel düzeydeki siyasete katılımın düzey ve araçlarına ilişkin çalışmalar görece zayıf kalmaktadır. Bu çalışma, Edirne'deki seçmenlerin yerel siyasete katılım düzeyini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Bu amaç doğrultusunda, seçmenin yaşı, cinsiyeti, gelir düzeyi, eğitim düzeyi ve benzeri nitel ve nicel özellikleri belirtilmiş; ardından, bu özellikler ile yerel siyasete katılım arasındaki ilişki hipotez testleriyle sınanmaya çalışılmıştır. Yapılan testler sonucunda Edirne'de eğitim düzeyi veya gelir düzeyi arttıkça yerel siyasete katılımın yoğunlaştığı ve seçmenlerin siyasete katılımlarının, yerleşik oldukları mahalleye göre farklılık gösterdiği belirlenmiştir. Siyasete katılımın ölçülmesinde, literatürdeki katılım tanımlamalarından A. Robert Dahl'ın tipolojisi esas alınmış olup, anket soruları bu tipolojiye uygun olarak oluşturulmaya çalışılmıştır
ÖZETDünya genelinde insanların çoğu kentlerde yaşamaktadır. Bu durumun sonucunda yoksulluk kırdan kente taşınmıştır. Kentlere özgü ortaya çıkan bu yoksulluk türüne "kentsel yoksulluk" adı verilmiştir. Dünya'daki tüm ülkelerin mücadele etmek zorunda kaldığı yoksulluk sorununa karşı merkezi yönetimler, yerel yönetimler, ulusal ve uluslararası ölçekte hizmet veren sivil toplum kuruluşları bu konuda çalışmalarını sürdürmektedir.Çalışmanın ilk bölümünde yoksulluk, kavramsal çerçeve içinde ele alınmış; yoksulluk türleri, yoksulluğa neden olan faktörler ve yoksulluk yaklaşımları açıklanmıştır. İkinci bölümde Dünya'da ve Türkiye'de yaşanan yoksulluk ile yoksullukla mücadele yöntemleri incelenmiştir. Üçüncü bölümde ise kentsel yoksulla mücadele yöntemleri Bursa kenti ölçeğinde değerlendirilmiştir. Örnek çalışma olarak Bursa'nın seçilme sebepleri şöyledir: Kent, 1950' lerden itibaren hem ülke içinden hem ülke dışından göç almaktadır. Böylece, günümüzde Türkiye'nin 4. büyük kenti olarak önemli bir ticaret ve sanayi merkezi haline gelmiştir. Kentin, tarihsel süreçte var olan kentsel yoksullukla mücadelesi hakkında yapılan çalışmaların azlığı, çalışmanın bu alanda yararlı olacağını düşündürmüştür.ABSTRACTMost people in the World, live in cities. As a result of this situation, poverty has moved from the rural to the urban. The poverty special to cities has been called as "urban poverty". Against the poverty problem that all countries in the world have to combat with, central governments, local governments, nongovernmental organizations serving nationally and internationally are continuing their activities on this issue.In the first chapter of the study, poverty is addressed in a conceptual framework; poverty types, and factors and approaches of poverty are explained. In the second chapter, poverty, and methods of combating poverty taking place on the World and in Turkey, have been examined. In the third chapter, the methods of combating urban poverty were evaluated at the Bursa city scale. The reasons for choosing Bursa, as a case study, are as follows: Since 1950, the city has allow immigration both from within the country and from abroad. So today, Bursa has become an important commercial and industrial center as the 4th largest city in Turkey. The lack of studies on the combating the urban poverty of the city in the historical process, suggests that the study will benefit on the area.
This paper analyzes the creative city policy for Istanbul, which has recently become a popular throughout the world. Cities are expected to be creative milieus that foster free circulation of people, ideas, and interactions for economic growth, global competitiveness, and social development. Drawing on Foucault and governmentality studies, this paper first argues that the creative city policy is a neoliberal political rationality that seeks to stimulate individuals' creative capacities through structuring urban space. Neoliberalism includes the de-governmentalization of state and the active participation of non-state actors in the governing processes. Second, using examples from street gentrification, industrial heritage re-functioning, and co-working spaces in Istanbul, this paper dissects how creativity, freedom, and economic growth intersect in urban space and how a broad coalition of political parties, state agencies, local authorities, non-governmental organizations, small-scale cultural entrepreneurs, and creative professionals have been formed around the creative city. As a result, creative city policy is a form of governmentality that includes official documents as well as spatial strategies of a heterogeneous coalition of state and non-state actors.
When British travelers visited Kurdish regions in the first half of the twentieth century they recorded their memories and opinions on Kurdish society, especially the position of women. This article analyses the text the British travelers produced to understand whether they were written from an orientalist perspective. The freedom of Kurdish women impressed the British travellers and officers, and in particular they differentiated between Kurdish women and other Muslim societies. They admired the high status of Kurdish women in society regardless of class, in both rural and urban communities. That freedom was reflected in their clothing, lack of face coverings and confident treatment of foreigners. Women participated in politics, became leaders of their communities, and educated themselves, leading British travelers to make comparisons between Kurdish and European women. This article challenges the idea that British travelers considered Kurdish women solely from an orientalist perspective. While orientalism determined many of their views on Kurdish society, British views of Kurdish women were informed by comparison with Europeans.
