Afetlerle Mücadelede Kamu Sosyal Konut Politikaları: Mali Sosyoloji Perspektifinden Bir İnceleme
Public Social Housing Policies in Addressing Disasters: An Examination from the Perspective of Fiscal Sociology

Summary/Abstract: This study examines the social housing policies implemented in Türkiye following the earthquakes in February 2023, focusing particularly on the financial and sociological dimensions of post-disaster reconstruction. The aim is to assess whether the housing interventions adopted by the state meet both immediate shelter needs and long-term goals such as socio-spatial equity, resilience, and inclusivity. The findings reveal that the state has adopted multi-layered housing strategy prioritizing emergency assistance through temporary shelters and financial aid. These policies have been developed in line with Sustainable Development Goal 11 on Sustainable Cities and Communities and the adequacy standards set by UN-Habitat, combining disaster-resilient design and spatial inclusivity. By analysing the implementation priorities outlined in existing data and policy documents, the study concludes that Türkiye's response serves as a positive example of public policies that address urgent needs while promoting sustainable urban development. Additionally, it supports key aspects of the reconstruction process with both social and fiscal policy recommendations.
