SOCIETAL AND STRUCTURAL TRANSFORMATION(S) IN THE SOUTHEASTERN ANATOLIA PROJECT REGION: THE CONSEQUENCE OF THE URBAN AND SPATIAL STRUCTURE CHANGING IN THE PLANE OF THE TIME
Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2017, Vol 10, Issue 52
Abstract
The inequality in income distribution, cultural degeneration, housing, training, health and forced emigration from rural areas to cities existing in the edge of social layers take important place in the focus of the spiral revealing urban/urbanization and settlement problems in the Southeastern Anatolia Project (GAP- Güneydoğu Anadolu Projesi) Region. While the facts such as social inequality/exclusion, terror and sheltering are reversing the urbanization processes in the context of the problems being deterministic on the generality of the region’s cities, the foresights set forth for rural and urban life together with the GAP have become wide of the mark. The fact that the targets foreseen for settlement and urban policies in the regional plane are not long lived due to ongoing problems reveals a strong side of external factors in the process of taking healthy decision of social internal dynamics. The “inhibitions” (violence and social exclusion) which are difficult to be envisaged within sustainable country policies may bring out the outbreak of new problems in attaining the targets. In this context, the fact that regional development polices tried to be constructed over limited natural resources or researches determining the concentration of contradictions in this field take shape around an arrangement that may accommodate to the spirit of the time and/or social transformations at a sufficient level comes out a necessity.
