A Lifestyle Contrary to Globalization “Cittaslow”: Seferihisar Sample

Öz

The formation of sustainable habitats and the preservation of these occurrences are considered as a phenomenon that contrasts with globalization. While the conservation of local heritage is aimed at cittaslows, globalization aims at a constant change. At this point; it is necessary to accept the difficulty of building new cittaslows and protecting existing ones as our time is the age of globalization.  In spite of this hallenge, the cittaslow approach is a kind that aims to preserve the original values of cities in the face of globalization and to provide more habitable living spaces. This approach should aimed at in spite of the greatest obstacle of globalization against it. From this point of view, the study first tried to determine conceptual framework by making literature studies about the concept of "cittaslow" which contradicts the essence of globalization. Later on, studies on the cittaslow Seferihisar, which received the title of "the first cittaslow" of our country, were examined.  Seferihisar’s current resistance to globalization and how much resistance it can show in the following processes were tried to be analysed, the problems in this regard were questioned and suggestions were made. It has been emphasized in the last part of the study, that Seferihisar District, which has completed the first phase of being a member of a cittaslow union, needs more municipal- citizen integration in order to maintain its title as a cittaslow, to protect the locality and to avoid being lost in the globalization cycle.

Küreselleşmeye Aykırı Bir Yaşam Biçimi “Sakin Kentler”: Seferihisar Örneği

Öz

Sürdürülebilir yaşam alanlarının oluşumu ve bu oluşumların korunması süreci küreselleşme ile zıtlık içeren bir olgu olarak kabul edilmektedir. Sakin kentlerde yerel mirası korumayı hedeflerken, küreselleşme sürekli bir değişimi amaçlamaktadır. Bu noktada; çağımızın küreselleşme çağı olduğu gerçeğinden hareketle yeni sakin kentler oluşturmak ve var olan sakin kentleri koruyabilmenin zorluğunu kabul etmek gerekir. Bu zorluğa rağmen sakin kent yaklaşımı; küreselleşme karşısında kentlerin özgün değerlerini koruyan ve daha yaşanılabilir yaşam alanlarını amaçlayan bir yaklaşımdır. Bu yaklaşım, önündeki en büyük engel olan küreselleşmeye rağmen amaçlanmalıdır. Bu noktada çalışmada ilk olarak küreselleşmenin özüne aykırı olan “sakin kent” kavramı ile ilgili literatür çalışmaları yapılarak kavramsal çerçeve belirlenmeye çalışılmıştır. Daha sonra ülkemizin “ilk sakin kenti” unvanını alan Seferihisar ilçesinin sakin kente yönelik çalışmaları incelenerek, ilçenin küreselleşmeye karşı mevcut direnci ve sonraki süreçlerdeki ne kadar direnebileceği analiz edilmeye, sorunlar sorgulanmaya ve önerilerde bulunulmaya çalışılmıştır. Çalışmanın sonuç bölümünde özellikle sakin kent birliğine üye olmakla başlayan ilk aşamayı tamamlayan Seferihisar ilçesinin, aldığı sakin kent ünvanını devam ettirebilmek için bundan sonraki süreçte yereli korumak, küreselleşme döngüsünde kaybolmamak adına daha fazla belediye-vatandaş bütünleşmesine ihtiyacı olacağı noktasına vurgu yapılmıştır.
