The Concept of Resilience: A Critical Evaluation of Erzurum
Öz
This study aims to evaluate existing urbanization practices of Erzurum in terms of the concept
of resilience. In this context, consistency of existing urbanization dynamics and ecological system is questioned
through resilience perspective in order to determine the future economic, social and ecological risks for Erzurum.
Thus, to cover all these three areas, indicators such as the changes in employment rate, income and main economic
activities; changing population, education and migration status, dependency ratios and welfare; changing land use
characteristics in historical process are used. The findings show that urbanization policy and practices, economic
situation and social structure in Erzurum are not resilient against the changes in the system and sometimes they
are the reasons of ecologic, economic and social vulnerabilities. A new planning approach should immediately be
developed with the resilience perspective. Otherwise, the city will be faced with immense risks in the near future,
especially in terms of livability.
