    Ethnic Reflections of the Global Outbreak: a Multi-Dimensional Examination on Syrian Refugees and Settlements in the First Phase of the Coronavirus Outbreak
    (Kare Publ, 2023) Kahraman, Zerrin Ezgi Haliloglu
    This study aims to examine the effects of the coronavirus pan-demic on Syrian refugees at the neighbourhood level within the framework of perceptions, personal protection experiences, economic and social structure, and practices of neighbourhood usage. The major data source of this qualitative study included in-depth interviews with Syrian refugees living in Ulubey-Onder Neighbourhoods (Ankara). The findings displayed the effects of the pandemic on Syrians and their settlements, and a compari-son before and after the outbreak. The study demonstrated that the effective information sources of Syrians are composed of so-cial and communicational networks, and social media platforms. Their religious beliefs and social and economic needs both shape their perception on not being contaminated, and explain their reaction towards and resistance to respect the measures of the outbreak. Their lack of knowledge on available health services, attitudes of ignoring the use of face masks and social distanc-ing rules, family structures, and living and working conditions in-crease the risk of the spread of the virus. Although the crowded streets proved that human movement and commercial vitality in Syrian settlements continue as it was before the pandemic, the family incomes and standards of living diminished due to laid offs and limited access to donations of NGOs. This led to empowerment of solidarity networks and social relations in the area. Additionally, this study found out both gender differences in socialization opportunities, and negative effects of curfews and suspension of congregational praying activities on social life dur-ing pandemic times.

    Spatial Organization of Public Buildings: an Evaluation on the Capital City of Turkey
    (Yildiz Technical Univ, Fac Architecture, 2020) Orhan, Ezgi
    Ankara, a small town of Anatolia before becoming the capital of Turkey, experienced a fundamental spatial restructuring process following the proclamation of the Republic. The vision of modernity and protective economic structure of the Early Republican era determined the spatial configuration of the city and produced public buildings as the icons of the young regime. The last ninety years witnessed different political-economic climates redesigning the urban regime of Ankara and symbols. One of the most tangible transformations is observed in the public buildings, which convey the economic understandings and urban politics of each period through their spatial and architectural organizations, and symbolic meanings. This study explores the change in the urban symbols with an emphasis on public buildings. For this, the ministry buildings of the capital city were selected to investigate spatial organizations, archistar buildings, and the messages conveyed to the public. Focusing on the the intentionally developed clusters of ministries, this study adressed basically three periods concerning the change in political and economic systems; the foundation period, the liberal years and the neoliberal era. As a result of this study it is stated that that in the Turkish case public buildings reflect the main motives of the period they were produced, their spatial organization serves as a medium containing information about the political, economic and social structure of each period.

    Ankara'nın Kaybolan Doğal ve Kültürel Değerleri
    (2019) Tunçer, Mehmet
    Bu makalede; Ankara'nın tarih içinde kaybettiği doğal, tarihsel ve kültürel mirası özetlemeye çalışılacak, bu kayıpların önemli bir "Kültürel Bellek Yitimi (kaybı)" olduğunu vurgulanacaktır. Amaç, doğal ve tarihsel "Bellek" yitiminin önüne geçebilmek amacıyla çevresel, kentsel, sosyal ve kültürel politikalar önermektir. Yazıda, Ankara'nın yüzyıllarca korunmuş doğal ve tarihsel/kültürel çevresinin; bağlar, akarsular, dereler, tarihi çevre ve Cumhuriyet Dönemi Mimarisi'nin neden ve nasıl yok edildiği, neden korunamadığı açıklanmaktadır. Ankara bilinen tarihinin 2000 yılı boyunca çeşitli medeniyetlere beşiklik ve başkentlik etmiştir. Ankara'da tarih boyunca çeşitli uygarlıkların yerleştiği alanlar karmaşık ve çok katmanlıdır. Şehir içindeki ve çevresindeki arkeolojik buluntular, höyükler zengin tarihi kültür katmanlarının üzerinde bulunduğumuzun göstergeleridir. Günümüze kadar ulaşabilmiş Augustus Tapınağı, Roma Hamamı, Ankara Kalesi ve son yıllarda ortaya çıkarılan Antik Dönem Tiyatrosu ve Kale Surlarında kullanılan devşirme yapı kalıntıları, başlıklar, heykeller, Ankara'nın Roma (ve daha sonra Bizans) kimliğinin göstergeleridir. İnsanlığın yaşadığı ve çok değişik olaylara sahne olan tarihi kentler, bir topluluğun toplumsal, siyasal, kültürel, ruhsal zenginliğinin en önemli göstergesidir. Ankara binlerce yıllık birikim sonucu oluşmuş bir kenttir. Tarihi Galatlara kadar gitmektedir. Ankara ile birlikte düşünülen en önemli sembolik öğe Kale ve Çankaya'dır. Biri tarihi geçmişi, öbürü ise Cumhuriyet Türkiye'sini sembolize eder. Birçok kente nasip olmamış zengin bir kültür birikimi bulunmaktadır. Cumhuriyetin yeni, çağdaş, modern bir "Başkent" oluşturma idealinin gerçekleştiği kenttir.

    Reflection of Political Restructuring on Urban Symbols: the Case of Presidential Palace in Ankara, Turkey
    (Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2016) Orhan, Ezgi
    Ankara, capital of Turkey has been the revolution space of the country after the proclamation of republic in 1923. The city has carried out the urban symbols of the republican ideology and modernity vision created by the nationalist administrators and elites. The newly established state used architecture and urban planning in transmitting the ideals of national unity and sovereignty by breaking off its ties from Ottoman heritage. After the span of eighty years, Turkey has experienced a new political hegemony. Post-2000s' political approach changed the urban symbols of early Republican period and redesigned the capital in line with its ideological basis. One of the most concrete transformations is observed in the presidential palace of the country which conveys the political intents of each period through its spatial and architectural organizations. This study, therefore, aims to put forward the change in urban symbols and their meanings by focusing on the presidential palace. The palaces are investigated in observational domains; their spatial configurations, buildings, and symbols in relation to the political intents on urban areas and public realm. This paper concludes that in both periods presidential palaces with respect to their spatial and architectural designs are regarded as the icons in representing the dominant political power; the former used it as an instrument of national sovereignty whereas the latter used it as a mark of dominancy over the nation.
