Publication: Kentsel yenileme ve İstanbul : Tarlabaşı örneği
Abstract
Kentlerin eskiyen, çöküntü alanı haline gelmiş olan bölümlerinin yenilenerek kentle yeniden entegrasyonunu; bir başka ifade ile kente tekrar geri kazandırılmasını sağlayan kentsel yenileme, günümüzde kent yönetimleri tarafından sıkça kullanılmaktadır. Küreselleşen dünyada, rekabet içine giren kentlerin kullandığı bir strateji haline gelen kentsel yenileme uygulamaları sonrasında soylulaştırma ortaya çıkmakta ve bu da kentin kentsel yenilemeye konu olan alanında yaşayan yoksul grupları olumsuz etkilemektedir. Proje sonrasında yenilenen alana gelir düzeyi daha yüksek gruplar gelirken, daha önce alanda yaşayan gelir düzeyi daha düşük gruplar bu alanı terk etmek zorunda kalmaktadır. Türkiye’deki kentsel yenileme uygulamalarının öncü şehri olan İstanbul’da devam eden Tarlabaşı Yenileme Projesi; ortaya çıkışı, uygulama süreci ve yenileme alanında yaşayanlara etkileri bakımından küreselleşmeyle birlikte bir strateji haline gelen kentsel yenileme uygulamalarının çarpıcı bir örneğidir. Bu çalışmada Tarlabaşı Yenileme Projesi’nin, ortaya çıkış ve uygulama süreci çok sayıda araştırmada elde edilmiş bulgular ve derlenmiş verilerin yanında birincil kaynak olarak, Tarlabaşı Yenileme Alanı’nda 2008-2009 öğretim yılından itibaren üç yıla yakın bir süredir yapılan katılımcı gözlemler yoluyla incelenmeye çalışılmıştır.
