Challenging existing political analyses of the state of emergency
in Turkey, this volume argues that such states are not merely
predetermined by policy and legislation but are produced,
regulated, distributed and contested through the built environment
in both embodied and symbolic ways. Contributors use empirical
critical-spatial research carried out in Turkey over the past
decade, exploring heritage, displacement and catastrophes.
Contributing to the broader literature on the related concepts of
exception, risk, crisis and uncertainty, the book discusses the
ways in which these phenomena shape and are shaped by the built
environment, and provides context-specific empirical substance to
it by focusing on contemporary Turkey. In so doing, it offers
nuanced insight into the debate around emergency as well as into
recent urban-architectural affairs in Turkey.
