2 Abstract: This dissertation examines the production of space in Istanbul under a neoliberal regime wherein the unraveling of the state and space conundrum is solidified under the dual pressures of private development companies and state urban renewal initiatives. The housing industry today represents a tremendous transformation both in regards to the structural features of Turkish economy by dint of rampant real estate speculation and consequently in terms of incisive reconfiguration of the built environment. The prevalent question here is the incipient effectiveness of the state in the last two decades, and the emergent reconfiguration of the primary agents in the housing market. The contemporary state in Turkey, unlike preceding periods of boom and bust cycles, has undertaken an active role in promoting urban (re)development, through either opening up a swath of hitherto pristine land that borders metropolitan regions (through redrawing laws on the forest reservations) to private development interests, or by privatizing public land by dint of joint housing development projects. The institutional and social framework for the former was set up by the residual forms of housing development, namely the self-help housing of the gecekondus, or through the small-scale production.
