Abstract

Küreselleşme ile birlikte sınırları kalkan dünyada şehirlerarası rekabet daha da önem kazanmıştır. Bu rekabet ortamında kentler, diğer kentlerden farklılıklarını ortaya koyarak daha fazla turisti, yatırımcıyı, sanayiciyi ve öğrenciyi kendisine çekmek ve içinde yaşayan insanlar için daha iyi yaşanılan bir yer olabilmek için diğer şehirlerle büyük bir yarış içerisine girmişlerdir. Bu nedenle şehirler küresel platformda rekabet güçlerini arttırmak için farklı ve kuvvetli yanlarını ortaya koyarak kendilerine değer katacak bir imaj oluşturma çabası içerisinde, markalaşma çalışmalarına yönelmeye başlamıştır. Bu çalışma, kent markalaşması kavramını mercek altına alarak kent imajı, olumsuz imajla mücadele etme, markalaşma süreci ve zorlukları aşamalarını inceleyerek, dünyadan ve Türkiye’den markalaşan kentlere örnekler vermektedir
