Özet
Successful megacities have become critical components of the global flows of
information, technology, materials, and finance. The daily demands of these cities
have forced administrators to address pressing concerns that affect their residents’
quality of life. They have achieved this by adopting a long-term vision and addressing
the underlying problems of these concerns. City planning has played a critical role in
setting a direction for the governance of megacities. This chapter provides an
overview of the demand challenges that these growing megacities face. It will
highlight the complex structure of a longstanding global center – Istanbul – relaying
how it has managed challenges involved in connecting a geography that splits the city
across two continents, supplied steady potable water for its growing population,
transformed a semi-formal city into an internationally networked global metropolis,
and through it all managed to rebuild and rehabilitate due to local and global crises.
The policies developed and planning techniques implemented in responding to these
challenges could provide a pathway for global megacities to face current and future
challenges such as climate change, disaster mitigation, and migration.
