Istanbul being selected as the European Capital of Culture in 2010 and the mission it has undertaken in this regard, forms the grounds for the first issue of this book being dedicated to urban cultures. The book takes advantage of the experiences of authors from Turkey, Netherlands and different parts of Europe and discusses cultural policy and management within the framework of urban planning, urban development and local art production.
