Publisher Description:
This book is based on my M.Sc. Thesis Study accomplished at METU in 2002. This comparative study is focused on urban regeneration process in which local characteristics and global framework with respect to the periods show differences both in World and Turkey and in which is operated by a specific politico-economic motive for urban planning and design approach. This study analyzes the urban regeneration process in inner-city (historic) areas in order to discover the rationale behind the process, and to figure out the parallelism (similarities and differences) between the World and Türkiye. The basic argument is that; the politico- economic motive in the urbanization process produces specific urban planning and design approaches in urban regeneration process for the inner-city (historic) areas. Therefore, there can be both similarity and difference between cities in terms of urban growth and change as well as urban regeneration process due to the political idea and economic model in different contingencies with respect to the period.
