Ankara'da Her Yolun Çıktığı Semt: Kızılay.

Kızılay is a neighbourhood at which historically different urban experiences and spatial attachments have been concentrated. This differentiation has been shaped on the base of political struggles about the historical meaning, spatial form and function of the place through a sociospatial process of production. Kızılay is not only a spatially central district, but also it is a place where political struggles have been concentrated at. The collective perception and experiences have been transformed, however, it is obvious that Kızılay will be on the focus of spatial-political debates today and tomorrow, although its symbolic meaning is attempted to be erased several times. In this study, Kızılay is examined as a neighbourhood through tracing the political struggles. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
