Chapter 2: Istanbul: A Model City of the Future

Photo: Cindy Nino

In 2010, Istanbul was designated as the European Capital of Culture, and in 2012, it has become the European Capital of Sport. These two examples, as well as the construction of a World Trade Center, near Atatürk Airport, where the municipality located the Istanbul development Agency, show the metropolis’s strategy to become what Saskia Sassen would call a “global city”. In this section, we will focus on the different layers of the global city approach: first, by looking at the economic aspect, then at the cultural side. We will finish by a report on the geopolitical role of Istanbul, and the way it fosters its role of a “city of intersection” (Yakiş).

Chapter 3: Weaving the Urban Fabric: Neighborhoods and Urban Development

Photo: Caroline Guillet

As we made our way through the city, some abandoned buildings in ruin caught our eye, and revealed themselves to be a highly prevalent issue in Istanbul. As in many other metropolises, housing is a major concern, but in Istanbul urban redevelopment projects are central to the politics of the city, as we saw in the report on the IMP. Moreover, they are closely linked to immigration issues, as some projects directly affect cosmopolitan neighborhoods and communities such as the Roma people. Communities and cultures are thus another contentious topic, that we will explore through the visit of a community center and a Greek School. Is Istanbul as cosmopolitan as it tried to portray itself to be? Networks, in a more literal sense, will be the last focus of this section, as it will be devoted to water management. All these different aspects of urban development put an emphasis on the central role of national government and the crucial role played by AKP in the governance of Istanbul.

Photo: Caroline Guillet Istanbul is ‘confined to Istanbul’ alone.

Viewed from the sea, the city extends as far as the identifiable contours of the land; as far as the observable motions of the sea from ashore can reach – !

It is Sultan (both) over land and sea, With its heart beating in the Bosphorus.

Everything else is afar, (everything else) is far away from Istanbul…
