Kentsel Dayanıklılık Odaklı Planlama Yaklaşımının Türk Kent Planlama Sistemine Uyarlanması

Abstract

Due to the unexpected changes, planning theory couldn’t cope with their uncertain implications. At this point, resilience is the pioneer concept of this era which stresses to learn how to live with unexpected changes in the face of disturbances while developing continuously, adapting to or transforming into a better state. Considering this dynamic character of resilience, urban resilience-urban planning studies have been rising since 2000s with different interpretations to emphasize an advancement of urban planning’s basic elements through the resilience lenses. Here, the most fundamental outcomes to be discussed are, firstly, to define how urban resilience planning should be included in an existing urban planning hierarchy and then, to define how to position urban resilience planning in a legislative system. Starting from this perspective, this paper aims to highlight the plausible resilience-related legislative and urban planning system through Turkey case. The paper not only reflects the outcomes of an Expert Questionnaire, two-stage Policy Delphi Survey and Public Survey applied in Istanbul, but also proposes “five elements process” as a required upgrade for the existing urban planning process. Moreover, a suggestion to integrate resilience into the existing urban planning hierarchy and legislative system were made to fill the gap of the capacity to manage uncertain changes .
