Comparison of The Sixième Arrondisse and Sixth Region in Turkey Which is First Modern Experience of Local Government in Turkey
Abstract
As a result of the
post-industrial revolution period, the changing social cultural structure
obliged states to create new institutions. As a result of the rapid migration
from the village to the city, the population balance between the village and
the city has deteriorated considerably and the cities have started to become
uninhabitable. One of the biggest factors that made the cities uninhabitable
was the chaos of service at the point of who would do the urban services. The
West, who has tried to find long-term workarounds to this problem, decided that
it was insufficient to produce services with workarounds and decided to
establish a local government. The process is similar but not as a historical
development of local governments has followed a similar process in Turkey. In
other words, the developments in the West and in particular the legal
regulations in France have been followed to form an Ottoman local government
model. One of the biggest indicators of this is the Sixth Region (altıncı daire-i belediye). The name of the Sixth Region, established in the
most developed regions of Istanbul, is inspired by Sixieme Arrondissment (Sixth
Region), where the most distinguished and modern sections of Paris, where
Ottoman bureaucrats lived for a while, lived during the Tanzimat period. In
this study, it will be tried to reveal the similarities between the Altıncı
Daire established in Beyoğlu and Galata regions and the Sixieme Arrondissment
in Paris by focusing on the Ottoman reflections of French local government
regulations.
