The Parliamentary Assembly adopted on 23 April 2013 Resolution 1925 (2013) on post-monitoring dialogue with Turkey, in which it acknowledged that a large number of reforms had been carried out, but pointed out that these only partially met the Assembly’s expectations, especially the 12 requirements of the post-monitoring dialogue (see Appendix I). 2. In September 2014, I presented an information note following my visit to Turkey1, in which I again referred to developments in the geopolitical context (especially the impact of the crises in Syria and Iraq on Turkey), the Gezi Park demonstrations (June-July 2013) and the subsequent action taken, the anti- corruption operation on 17 and 25 December 2013 and its political and legal consequences, the 30 March 2014 local elections, the Soma mine disaster of 14 May 2014 and the main developments affecting the post- monitoring dialogue.

  • Architectural and Historic Preservation of Old Houses Baltazzi's Old
    ARCHITECTURAL AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION OF OLD HOUSES BALTAZZI’S OLD PROPERTIES IN ISTANBUL Houses- Appartments - Mansions-Yalis - Hans and Farms Introduction I am happy to have concluded this research which I had in mind for a long time. I was of course encouraged by the positive trend of continuing group research on the history of Levantines. This work is also aimed as a message to encourage the preservation of the architectural and historical heritage of the city of Istanbul and I am grateful for the help from friends and the efficient assistance of my offices in both cities. The Baltazzi famiy, although since the XVIIIth century were living in Izmir have also maintained close relations from that time with the capital Istanbul due to their business activites in finance and banking as well as due their close relations with the Ottoman Court. Some other Levantive and Greek families such as the Whittals, the La Fontaines, the Mavrogordato, the Sevastopoulos to cite a few also acquired a range of proprieties and hade members of these numerous families resident in both cities and various neighbourhoods. 1- HOUSES The emminent authority on Ottoman Banking History Pr. Haydar Kazgan and many other authors mention that the first permission to a foreigner to own a house was given in recognition of the services rendered to the Sultan to my great great grand father the Banker Emanuele Baltazzi around 1850 whereas the official permission for foreigners to own real-estate was granted only in 1867. Where was this house situated? Akylas Millas in his “Pera Crossroads of Constantinople” gives as location the Bonmarche at Istanbul Grand Rue de Pera (today Istiklal Caddesi of Beyoğlu) saying “The Bartoli brothers famous for Au Bon Marche department store occupied the ground floor of a neo-classical building erected in 1870 on the site of the residence of Manolaki Valtadji efendi which burnt in the frequent fires which occurred in Pera”.

  • Morphologic Assessment of Istanbul Beyoğlu Peninsula in the Process of Reproducing the Urban Waterfront
    Birik, Melih Morphologic Assessment of Beyoğlu Peninsula 50th ISOCARP Congress 2014 Morphologic Assessment of Istanbul Beyoğlu Peninsula In the Process of Reproducing the Urban Waterfront. Peer-reviewed paper Melih Birik, Kırklareli University, Turkey Abstract “Water”, the main signifier of Istanbul had different meanings for the city specifically starting from Haliç (also known as the Golden Horn) to the Bosphorus. During the long period of urbanization, Haliç became the backbone of integrated historical sites that encounters different morphologic characteristics. Despite deep cultural, social and geographical roots integrating its identity with the water, today Istanbul’s city centre is under the risk of turning its back on the waterfront because of currently planned spatial interventions. Lack of connections and flows are separating this vibrant city centre from the coastline. In this assessment, the spatial qualifications of the waterfront of Beyoğlu Peninsula examined according to morphologic values in order to re-associate it with its hinterland. During the 1950s and 60s, a modernizing ideology of new production methods guiding the spatial planning policies had transformed the waterfront of Istanbul, creating barriers between the city centre and the water. Especially, along the Beyoğlu Peninsula following the coastline from Besiktas to the Halic shipyard the barriers have a massive effect. While the new urban planning ideology of the 80s was predicting the decentralization program for waterfront, the city centre has had a new chance to create the potential for the use of spatial voids within the solid structure of the old urban fabric. Unfortunately, during the last decade, these potential public areas, consisting of warehouses, shipyards, industrial plants and customhouses of mostly industrial heritage buildings were enclosed in privatization programs under the guidance of a real estate market based on certain urban transformation policies.

Abstract Unexpected outbreaks of civil conflict may either strengthen or weaken the like- lihood of an incumbent remaining in office. In the absence of an actual turnover in office, or immediate public opinion surveys, scholars of conflict are at a loss to tell whether such episodes of conflict strengthen or weaken an incumbent's hold on power. In this paper, I address this question with a novel approach: studying the stock market performances of the firms inside and outside of the incumbent's network to infer the effect of an exogenous conflict episode on the incumbent's survival probability. I hypothesize that the abnormal returns of firms connected with the incumbent provide valuable information about the incumbent's hold on power: positive abnormal returns indicate stronger incumbent power, while neg- ative abnormal returns indicate weaker incumbent power.
