Yerel yönetimler tüm devletlerin vazgeçilmez unsurları arasında yer almaktadır. İdarenin bütünlüğü ilkesi ve özerklik olgusu devlet yönetimi içinde merkezi idare ile yerel idareler arasındaki ilşkinin özünü oluşturmaktadır. Bu iki ilke ekseninde merkezi hükümet, yerel yönetimler üzerinde vesayete dayalı güç elde ederek ülke yönetiminin genel siyasetini belirlemeye çalışırken, yerel yönetimlerde kendi görev alanları içinde, kendi kaynakları, kendi görev ve yetkileri ile özerklik talep etmektedir. Bu durum dünyanın pek çok ülkesinde benzer bir seyir izlemektedir. Hazırlanan bu çalışmada, Türkiye ve Bangladeş'in merkezi hükümeti ile yerel yönetimleri arasındaki ilişkileri, idari yapıları, görev ve işleyişleri analiz edilmek istenmektedir. Türkiye ve Bangladeş, birçok açıdan benzer sosyo-kültürel özelliklere sahip, çoğunluğu Müslüman olan iki ülkedir. Bu iki ülke arasındaki ikili ilişkiler son yıllarda özellikle ticaret, savunma, göç ve diğer sektörlerde gelişme göstermiştir. Bu ikili ilişkilerin gelişmesini takiben, bu makale bu iki ülkenin yerel ve merkezi hükümet ilişkilerini anlamak için büyük önem arz etmektedir.

Relationship between Central and Local Government: Experiences from Turkey and Bangladesh

Öz

Local government is an essential element of the states. The principles of administrative integrity and autonomy constitute the essence of the relationship between the central and local governments. Based on these two principles, the central government tries to determine the policy of the country's administration by obtaining power based on tutelage over local governments, while local governments demand autonomy within their areas of duty, with their resources, responsibilities, and powers. This situation follows a similar course in many countries of the world. This study aims to analyze the relations between Turkey and Bangladesh's central government and local governments, their administrative structures, duties, and functions. Turkey and Bangladesh, both Muslim-majority countries, share similar socio-cultural characteristics. Bilateral relations between these two countries have developed in recent years, especially in trade, defense, migration, and other sectors. Following the development of these bilateral relations, this paper is significant here to understand two countries’ local and central government relations.
