İstanbul’da Köyden Mahalleye Evrilen Yerleşmeler

Abstract

In this study, we draw attention to the presence of rural settlements in Istanbul and the aim of this study is to reveal the importance of rural settlements for Istanbul. In the studies conducted to date, Istanbul has been generally dealt with on the basis of urban problems. Because of its urban functions, Istanbul’s rural settlements have always been overshadowed. During 1927 to 2018, the number of rural settlements in Istanbul has changed continuously. The reason for this change is the settlements evolving from villages to neighborhoods in Istanbul. With the expansion of the first Istanbul’s macroform area, some of the rural settlements became integrated with the urban area and turned into neighborhoods. The second one, which maintains the quality of the village in the concrete sense; however, it covers the villages that have been administratively converted to the neighborhood status under Law no. In this study, settlements evolving from villages to neighborhoods within the scope of Law No. 6360 are discussed. According to TurkStat, there were 151 villages in Istanbul in 2012. However, in this research, 173 villages were determined by using satellite images. These findings were confirmed by field studies.
