Overview

In Istanbul, urban transformation and housing production processes are so intricately entwined and intertwined that they elicit a plethora of predictable and unexpected subject matters to be studied holistically. This book provides an insight into the scales, thresholds, and dilemmas of housing transformations in Istanbul from past to present, with a focus on cause-and-effect relationships. It scrutinizes Istanbul from new perspectives as the primary scene, target, and playground for neoliberal market acts and actors, on the one hand, and seeks to shed light on future prospects with regard to housing needs and expectations of twenty-first century users in line with the unique dynamics of Istanbul, a city without ends, on the other hand.
