It has been frequently used as a film location in Turkish cinema. The Republic of Türkiye celebrated its fiftieth year in 1973. In our research, developments in Üsküdar will be evaluated as the Republic completes its half-century. It can be said that Üsküdar is a settlement that has become a part of Türkiye due to its location. Our study focuses on developments in Üsküdar in the same years. The connection between the developments in Üsküdar and the Turkish politics, economy and social events of the day has not been touched upon much. This situation has been not wanted that would have expanded the scope of the research and perhaps also led to a certain amount of disorganization. This connection has been left as the subject of another research. As a method in our research, national newspapers such as Hürriyet and Milliyet published between 1970 and 1980 were scanned. News about Üsküdar were subjected to content analysis and classified. What kind of investments were made in Üsküdar? The status of the population in this settlement, migration movements, and public order were also evaluated according to news in the national press. What is the situation of Üsküdar in the fields of health, trade, tourism, and education? The Şehitler Bridge (Bosphorus), which is related Üsküdar, was included in the investment plan in 1969 for the 50th year vision of the Republic; it was opened in 1973. General elections were held in 1973-1977. The assumption of our research is that "Considering the historical and geopolitical position of Üsküdar, the developments in this district in the same years should be evaluated at a macro level." Another purpose of our study is to open the door to such macro-scale research. Üsküdar was presented by the political institution as the place where Turkey’s investments were made during this period. As a result of our research, we saw that the developments in Üsküdar in the fiftieth year of the Republic of Turkey were attributed to all of Turkey and conveyed in the politics of that day.}, number={2}, publisher={Çanakkale Onsekiz Mart Üniversitesi}
