An Insight Toward Experienced Reality
Power Struggles in the Production of and Changing Perceptions over the Contemporary Public Space: An Insight toward Experienced Reality Thesis presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Newcastle University Tugce Sanli School of Architecture, Planning and Landscape January 2016 Abstract Cities have been invaded by the tools of the capitalist systems which transform the built environment while leaving the scars of this transformation on the societies. The demands of market forces generate new life styles and social contexts reshaped via relations of power and expression of political and economic hegemony. The nature of urban landscape, particularly the condition of public spaces, has shifted towards most profitable use while private interests have taken over public spaces and contemporary public spaces have emerged such as shopping malls. This study contributes to the debates that explore the ‘veiled’ side of planning and hegemonic relations of power in decision making processes that actually in a strong relation with cultural structuring and traditional praxis of a community. In addition, the study has a comprehensive approach by exploring societal influences emerging through power relations and their reflections on contemporary public spaces via exploring perceptions. The study conducts an investigation using qualitative methods and adopting case study approach via three shopping malls from Ankara (Turkey) to answer how urban power relations are generated and become effective on planning and production of contemporary public spaces and how the perceptions upon these public spaces are being transformed? Therefore, the study is founded on two main themes as pillars: power relations and public spaces. In addition, the empirical chapters at the end are set in parallel with the research objectives and data is gathered via archive analysis of the municipalities and interviews conducted with key informants and users of the selected cases. -

It has gained attention with the contribution of Prof. Dr. Semavi Eyice who described the painting as “a view of Ankara” rather than the view of the city of Aleppo which was described as such before his study of the painting. The View of Ankara is not only important for Ankara studies as being the oldest painting of Ankara that is known but also it depicts various stages of mohair manufacture and the Angora goats being shorn on the foreground and points to the mohair trade which had been central to the economy of the city of Ankara. -
Ankara City of Treasured Archaeological Sites
2012-07-28 Soraya Othman Ankara City of Treasured Archaeological Sites “If you are not conservative, then you cannot be a conservationist,” was a phrase quoted by Prof. Baykan Günay from Middle East Technical University (METU) in a special plenary session held during The 26th Annual Congress – AESOP 2012, which I have attended in mid of July 2012. His presentation about The Spatial History of Ankara was remarkable and provided me with an in-depth understanding about the richness of historic structures in Ankara from a variety of empires such as Roman, Byzantine and Ottoman. As a guide to the process of exploring the approaches of conservation, I decided to visit some significant archaeological heritages. The Citadel area and old bazaars marked the beginning of my journey, where I discovered a couple of souvenir shops at the entrance of the Ankara Castle. As I walked further, it led me the inner area of the castle where it is filled with art galleries, restaurants, old houses with lively community and the valuable 12th century Alaaddin Mosque. The mosque recorded the Seljuk art and wood craftsmanship, but its characteristics have been altered due to the restorations by the Ottomans. Knowing that in the past, Ankara used to function as an important commercial center during the Roman period, I was not surprised to find some Roman stones with inscriptions on some of the buildings’ walls. Later that day, I visited the remains of Roman Theatre, followed by a visit to the amazing Temple of Augustus and Rome (built between 25 BC – 20 BC) which is situated beside the 15th century Haci Bayram Mosque. -

An international competition was organized for the city's development plan in 1927, and Prof. Dr. Hermann Jansen’s plan won. Unfortunately, the plan wasn’t kept loyal in the following years; morphological deteriorations started to be observed in the city. In this paper, physical changes appeared so far have examined, structural and open spaces’ evolutions of the historical city have highlighted. Parks and gardens demonstrating adverse changes in both structural and plant design have explained via examples that they lost their identity so far. To halt this negative change, it is crucial to develop new policies to solve the problems by defining them well, to produce new regulations or to strengthen existing ones that respect the historic urban landscapes and cultural assets of the city, to solidify sanctions on this issue and create an impartial judicial unit against crimes committed to the city.
