@article{article_232238, title={THE EUROPEANIZATION OF TURKEY: REFORM IN LOCAL GOVERNMENTS}, journal={Uluslararası İktisadi ve İdari İncelemeler Dergisi}, year={2015}, DOI={10.18092/ijeas.68186}, author={Eliçin, Yeşeren}, abstract={A longstanding pre-candidate and relatively recent candidate to join the EU, Turkey has experienced <br />many ups and downs with the EU. The period that begins with the recognition of its status as a candidate <br />in 1999 and ends with the general elections held in 2007, that is to say, the recent period marked by the <br />first interval of the AKP government, is probably the most significant of these highs where it would be <br />possible to evoke a process of Europeanization. This article aims to study the impact of the process of <br />integration in Turkey in the context of local administration reform, which constituted the last section of <br />the reform process and to demonstrate that it did not bring a substantial legal and institutional transformation.}, number={7}, publisher={Kenan ÇELİK}
