REFLECTION OF GROWTH POLES THEORY IN TURKEY AS SUPPORTING PROGRAM FOR ATTRACTION CENTRES

Öz

Once popular and now effective, the theory of Growth Poles found places in many countries’ regional development agenda to some extents. Turkey is among the countries, which tried to give emphasis on the Theory since its adoption by the world, in especially its development plans and studies preparing ground for the Theory. However, after a long preparation process, Turkey decided to support financially the Theory by determining 12 city centres as Attraction Centres (AC) in less developed regions in a program i.e. Supporting Program for Attraction Centres (SPAC). Present study aims to give brief information about the theory of GP, mention about its reflection on Turkey as AC and summarize the results of the application of AC approach by looking inside a financial support program for ACs, SPAC.
