Özet
Abstract When it comes to architecture and the city, it is possible to talk about a continuous change and transformation in every society and geography throughout history. However, grasping, understanding and making sense of all these changes and transformations, the core of which is human, through the city and architecture also involves a difficult process. Especially when evaluating the physical environment in the context of cause and effect relationship, concrete references and real data are needed when explaining changes and transformations. Reading the transformations that occur in social, cultural and political areas through architectural indicators can create an opportunity to create an integrative context. Opening a discussion about the abstract superstructure through a concrete area such as the built physical environment has been ongoing since the first human societies. This study will try to discuss the effects of policies on the physical environment by going back from architecture, specifically in Ankara. The beginning of the capitalism process with its current meaning and application area covering the whole world is accepted as having originated in England, but its harms can be more clearly revealed in economically underdeveloped countries. Although it is accepted as a model related to production methods, being able to open a new discussion on this system that creates every field down to its finest details and in which we are increasingly immersed and on the physical environment it creates will support new areas in different areas from education to application. In this sense, “how capitalism creates its own geography”, emphasized by David Harvey, will be opened to discussion through Ankara, a very special area.
