As A Success Story on the Meaning of the 1970's Chp Municipality

With the emergence of the urban phenomenon in Turkey is developed in the domestic politics of the policy conditional funding and overall control of the central government. It took time for an autonomous understanding of municipality to settle and the fact that urban discipline had an independent trajectory was faced quite late. However, it is an obvious fact that political practices, which started at the local level and where meeting with the public took place without any preconditions, also directed central politics after a while. In this sense, Turkey's general elections in 1977 is a good example. In the period between 1973 and 1977, the dynamism caught with the successful municipality of the CHP found its worth in the general elections and the CHP came out of the ballot box with a rate of 41 percent. In the background of this success; The CHP has also partially changed the party ontology of the past, turning its face from the middle-class urbanists to the working class, who came through migration, in poverty, who could not benefit from the city facilities sufficiently. The study program that provides full local this ontological transformation, namely "socialist municipality" examine what is conceptualized as a theoretical whole, in particular CHP, Turkey will seek answers to the question what he did right. While looking for these answers, we will also examine how dynamics of local governments and local politics have developed in the world, and we will try to answer questions such as what demands of society respond to the changes experienced by cities. In parallel, the changes related to the city in our country and the demands of the society for urban administrations will be compared with the urban movements and demands in the west and efforts will be made to clarify the parallels and differences in this sense.
