Abstract

This article analyzes the politics of visual representations of the city in the postwar Turkish context. In this period, marked by rapid urbanization, urban problems entered into the realm of daily politics and the city turned into a terrain of struggle. A major component of this struggle was the representations of the city. Particular interest is given to the role played by Turkish architects and urban planners in producing visual representations of the city that became components of a counterhegemonic urban politics during the 1960s and 1970s.
