Abstract
There has been a constant pursuit on the part of the planning institution as well as of the central administration, as a result of the political and economic changes that have occurred in the world and in Turkey since the 1980’s. The spatial projections created by the changes experienced in the planning institution during the course of this pursuit continues by leaving its profound marks in some regions. Considering the policies pursued by developed capitalist countries for the last 35 years, it is seen that at the foundation lies the efforts of capitalism to overcome its own blockages and to maintain its existence. The fact that the Keynesian style of capital accumulation based on “the redistribution of wealth and the stimulation of demand” that had been implemented in the wake of the First World War came to a deadlock within roughly half a century; and the oil crisis of the 1970’s has led capitalist countries led by the U.S.A. and Great Britain to pursue different strategies based on the monetarist outlook. The monetarist outlook which argues supply-side policies, and stresses the need for reduction of the state’s intervention on economy and of state spending lays the foundation of the new approach. Thus a series of new entities have begun to form in political and social life, as in the matter of production and organization.
