Abstract

From now on, the perspective of the countries on the
concept of regional politics has changed, and with this change, not only the
backward regions, but all the regions have been placed in the focus of the
regional politics which is determined by the countries. Along with this change,
plans, programs and targets are set to increase the competitiveness of other
regions besides the goal of development of the countries that are lagging
behind.

The concept of regional competition, which includes
concepts such as growth, productivity, competition and performance, is an
important issue that is important in international economic organizations and
serves to increase competition between regions. Increasing competition among
regions will increase prosperity in the country and improve development.

The role of competitive cities is great when the
regions are successful in terms of growth, productivity, performance,
innovation, and are classified as competitive regions. In this context, it is
very important to establish urban competitiveness and create competitive cities
in the first place in regional competitiveness.

In the study, the urban competitiveness of Tokat
province will be considered in the context of TR83 region, and an evaluation
will be made comparatively in  the TR83
region such as Amasya, Çorum and Samsun. In the study, 35 variables will be
used in determining the urban competitive power of the TR83 regions under the
four index classifications as 'human capital and quality of life', 'branding
skill and innovation', 'trade skill' and 'accessibility'.First, the variables
will be normalized and then analyzed using the formulas specified.

Key Words: Intercity Competition, Regional competition,
Competitiveness, Urban competitiveness, TR83.

Tokat İlinin Kentsel Rekabet Edebilirliğinin TR83 Bölgesi Kapsamında Değerlendirilmesi

Year 2019, Volume: 26 Issue: 3, 919 - 936, 25.12.2019

Abstract

Ülkelerin
dünden bugüne bölgesel politika kavramına bakış açıları değişmiş, bu değişimle
beraber sadece geri kalmış bölgeler değil, tüm bölgeler ülkelerce belirlenen
bölgesel politikanın odak noktasına yerleştirilmiştir. Bu değişimle beraber
ülkelerce geri kalmış bölgelerin kalkındırılması hedefinin dışında diğer
bölgelerin de rekabet edebilirliğinin artırılmasına yönelik plan, program ve hedefler
belirlenmektedir.



Büyüme,
verimlilik, rekabet ve performans gibi kavramları ihtiva eden bölgesel rekabet
kavramı uluslararası ekonomik kuruluşlarca da önemsenen ve bölgelerarası
rekabetin artırılmasına hizmet eden önemli bir husustur. Bölgelerarası
rekabetin artırılması ile ülke genelinde refah artacak, gelişme sağlanacaktır.



Bölgelerin
büyüme, verimlilik, performans, yenilikçilik anlamında başarı gösterip
rekabetçi bölgeler olarak sınıflandırılmasında rekabetçi kentlerin rolü
büyüktür. Bu bağlamda bölgesel rekabeti sağlamada ilk olarak kentsel rekabet
edebilirliği tesis etmek, rekabetçi kentler oluşturmak oldukça önem arz
etmektedir.



Çalışmada,
Tokat ilinin kentsel rekabet edebilirliği TR83 bölgesi bağlamında ele alınacak,
TR83 bölgesinde yer alan Amasya, Çorum, Samsun gibi illerle karşılaştırmalı
olarak bir değerlendirme yapılacaktır. Çalışmada TR83 bölgesinde yer alan
illerin kentsel rekabet gücünü belirlemede ‘beşeri sermaye ve yaşam kalitesi’ ,
‘markalaşma becerisi ve yenilikçilik’, ‘ticaret becerisi’ ve ‘erişilebilirlik’
olmak üzere dört endeks sınıflandırması altında 35 değişken kullanılacaktır.
İlk olarak değişkenlerin normalize edilmesi sağlanacak daha sonra da belirtilen
formüllerle analiz gerçekleştirilecektir.



Anahtar Kelimeler: kentlerararası rekabet, bölgesel rekabet, rekabet
edebilirlik, kentsel rekabet edebilirlik, TR83.
