Kentsel ölçekte mekansal ayrişma: Edirne Çingene Mahallesi örneği

Segregation, which has started to take on a shape since the beginning of 20th century, has accrued under the effect of many dynamics such as economic, political and cultural which determine the spatial and social developments of the city. By globalization, which can be defined as restructuring at industry and services, mobility of labor, the continuous segregation and integration process at communication systems and cultural differences; spatial resolution have accelerated intensively and it has made a strong social inequality against ?the other?, inequality at distribution of income, sharpened the hierarchy amongst the groups and has revealed a structure the socio-spatial layers of which are polarized. As the result of it, ?the social exclusion? mentioned together with the concepts like ?social inequality, discrimination, underclass? has reflected as resolution to urban locality, and the ethnic resolution based on the multiculturalism has been the focus of the proposes explained with social exclusion. On the other hand, Gypsies, due to the effects of their ethnic identities and their original bohemian life style to their choice of profession and the socio ? economic and cultural status within the community, have been sidelined at the different scales in all the societies they lived; in this thesis, the problem of the ethnic groups who live in the same geography 2 and who have different identities that reflects, in the inclusion of Gypsies, as resolution of the social exclusion to the urban locality will be studied. In this aspect, Edirne Neighborhood of Gypsies (Menzilahir) has been chosen as the sample region because of the homogenous Gypsy residence that accept the name and identity of ?Gypsy? and who are in peace with their ethnic identity, that are effected by social exclusion, and that are in resolution with the city with definite lines (who grow up in the city but aren?t included to the city). In this thesis, how and at which size the resolution at the urban scale in the neighborhood of Gypsies have appeared as spatial and socio? cultural will be studied together with the dynamics of polarization and resolution processes; and it is aimed to form a guide based on planning practices and to evaluate as planning data on creating livable spaces at urban scale through appreciating and considering the multicultural models in solving these problems. The method which is used to perform this consists of literature survey, creation of a database about the subject by supporting information and documents, field study which is based on emic stance with the technique of participant observation and depth interview, ?theory development? in accordance with subject original hypotheses based on spatial fiction of work field.
