Osmanlı Devleti’nden Günümüze Yerel Yönetimlerde Değişim Süreci Ve Reform
The Process of Change and Reform in Local Government From the Ottoman Empire to the Present Day

Summary/Abstract: Effective and efficient presentation of public services is among the most important tasks of a state. Public services are provided by central and local administrations organized within the state. Local administrations are more functional in the presentation of local public services. According to the political and administrative structure of the states, the weight of the central and local administrations may differ in the presentation of public services. Local government institutions in the Western sense in our country have emerged together with the Tanzimat, but the roots of the local administrations are based on more ancient ones. Local public services in the Ottoman Empire were carried out mostly by foundations. The local government structure inherited from the Ottoman Empire during the Republican Period was subjected to the reform process many times until today. In this study, a brief analysis of the process of change and reform experienced in local governments is being carried out by taking the basic idea that the Ottoman Empire is not a break with the change experienced by the local governments but rather with a continuity.
