To expand on these mechanisms, the empirical data in this study were drawn from fieldwork conducted in April 2015 in the Istanbul metropolitan municipality (IMM), two district municipalities, and the Istanbul gubernatorial (IG). This was important to show how the Municipal Act No. 6360 transformed the relationship between the gubernatorial and the metropolitan municipality, and how the metropolitan municipality exercises centralization over district municipalities, especially the ones governed by opposition parties. As a result, in a highly centralized public administration, municipalities do not yet have sufficient autonomous competence over public services. The absence of an institutionalized state structure represents the main reason for the administrative centralization. On this point, reasons for excessive centralization in Turkey were analyzed within the framework of state institutionalization. The institutionalization problems of the Turkish State represent the main reason for the failure of decentralization policies in the country.","PeriodicalId":45789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies","volume":"25 1","pages":"850 - 870"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49307548","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This review explains why the book is a welcome addition to the existing academic literature. The review also provides certain pieces of constructive criticism largely centred on issues that are unexplored in the book. As such, the review seeks to place the narrow subject matter of the book into a much wider historical and legal context. For example, the review touches on the largely hushed-up geostrategic interests served by those involved in the negotiations. The review depicts the principal outcome of those negotiations as ‘the camouflaged partition’ of the Island of Cyprus on 16 August 1960. The review ends by suggesting that there is a causal link between the negotiations explored in the new book and the conspicuous post-Brexit role of RAF Akrotiri in supporting the UK's strategy towards Russia and Ukraine.","PeriodicalId":45789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies","volume":"31 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136372331","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Its immediate geographic area, i.e., the Middle East, along with Asia, acquired another dimension within the new climate of a global confrontation of the two superpowers since 1945 with many unforeseen and devastating consequences. Turkey’s invasion in July 1974 and the forcible partition that resulted have created a deadlock on the ground that still persists. The inability to come up with a just and viable solution, due to the unwillingness of the occupying power to yield, have led many voices advocating a clean solution instead, the euphemism for the creation of two independent states in the island. Employing history as guidance for similar circumstances, mutatis mutandis, the article seeks to demonstrate how such talk is not only dangerous, but pernicious as well, grossly unjust to the Cypriot people. The not-too distant past and its offspring, i.e., partition, which was implemented in the Middle East and Asia, still haunt memory and serve as warning against adopting similar practices in Cyprus.","PeriodicalId":45789,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Balkan and Near Eastern Studies","volume":"25 1","pages":"737 - 777"},"PeriodicalIF":1.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47498831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
