Küresel kapitalist ekonomik sistemdeki genişlemenin bir sonucu olarak, son yıllarda küresel ve dünya kentlerinin sayısı, işlevleri ve sınır ötesi bağlantılarında dikkate değer bir gelişme yaşandı. Bu gelişmeye paralel olarak, giderek artan sayıda küresel ve dünya kenti araştırmacısı, bu yeni küreselleşen şehirlerin küresel ekonomik düzende üstlendiği işlevleri araştırmaya ve küresel kent ağlarında nasıl konumlandırılabileceğini tartışmaya başladı. Literatürdeki bu güncel girişimlere ampirik bir katkıda bulunmak amacıyla, yarı yapılandırılmış görüşmelere dayanan nitel bir vaka çalışması olarak tasarlanan bu makale, yeni küreselleşen şehirlerin arasında en fazla gelişme gösterenlerden biri olan İstanbul'un küresel ve bölgesel işlevlerini analiz etmektedir. Araştırmanın bulguları, küresel şehirler sisteminde ikincil bir öneme sahip olmasına rağmen İstanbul'un önde gelen bir bölgesel komuta ve kontrol noktası, bir geçit ve bir bölgesel havayolu ulaşım merkezi olarak değerlendirilebileceğini göstermektedir.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Küresel/Dünya Kentleri, bölgesel komuta ve kontrol merkezi, geçit, havayolu ulaşım merkezi, İstanbul
