- Abstract
Planning discourses have focused on relational and institutional structure, as well as changing economic and social paradigms. This has led to alterations in various stages of planning systems, from theoretical approaches to institutional arrangements, spatial scales, local sources, and power relations and fragmentations, and from planning-implementation processes to political and public interests. Over the last two decades, there has been growing academic and political interest in the evolution of planning from the aforementioned perspectives in Turkey. The aim of the present study was to explore whether relational and institutional approaches are the key reasons for the success of planning approaches in upper-scale planning enterprises. It is demonstrated that insurmountable obstacles that provide reference for institutional and relational dimensions of planning are some of the most important matters impacting planning in Turkey. These obstacles include uncertain spatial scales, fragmentations of authority and territory, and incomplete institutional and legal regulation at regional and national levels, among other issues.
