Article Citation Count: 2An Empirical Analysis of Gentrification in Istanbul(Wiley, 2021) Özbay Daş, Zühal; Ozsahin, Gulsah; Ekonomi ve Finans BölümüThis paper begins by investigating the occurrence of gentrification in Istanbul during the period of 2008 and 2017, through the application of dynamic system/difference generalized method of moments estimation techniques. Our findings reveal that gentrification seems to have taken hold with the processes of urban regeneration that began in 2012. Additional associations between such parameters as housing price/rent growth, demographic changes, enterprise growth, and political administration (that is, whether the district is overseen by the opposition party or not) are tested through the use of REIDIN sales and rent indices, along with Turkish Statistical Institute data sets for 25 districts in Istanbul and 19 city-centre districts. The results demonstrate that gentrification is closely related to demographics/age and political administration. Overall, while house price/rent growth and enterprise growth are not observed to have an impact on gentrification, the findings of this study reveal that the association between housing prices and gentrification is positive only in those districts governed by the opposition party. The study thus raises questions about the relationship between political attitudes and gentrification in Turkey.Article Citation Count: 0Inequality and the Import Demand in Turkey(Istanbul Univ, 2021) Özbay Daş, Zühal; Ekonomi ve Finans BölümüThe study aims to see whether the long-run relation between inequality and import demand exists in Turkey. The Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) cointegration technique is used in this study to estimate the long-run relationships between real imports, income, relative price, real exports, and inequality for the period 1982-2015. The results revealed that the income elasticity of imports is greater than one as the literature suggests. The sign of the coefficient of relative price and its magnitude is also compatible with the literature, while it is not statistically significant. However, the results further reflect that inequality is positively associated with real imports in Turkey contrary to assumptions of the relation between inequality and imports that is found to be negative for lower income countries in some studies. Short-run coefficients reflect that real income and relative prices are associated with real imports, whereas exports and not surprisingly, inequality variables are not in the short-run. The coefficient of income parameter is less in magnitude in the short-run but still greater than one. However, the sign of the coefficient of the relative price turns out to be positive in the short-run.Article Citation Count: 0Can Financial Transactions Reveal the Change in Social Fabric Triggered by Urban Regeneration?(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2024) Özbay Daş, Zühal; Dass, Zuhal Ozbay; Ozbay, Ayse Elif Ozsoy; Bozkaya, Burcin; Balcisoy, Selim; Ekonomi ve Finans BölümüIn this study, we aimed to investigate the relationship between single-building scaled urban regeneration, driven by the Disaster Risk Transformation Law, and urban segregation in Maltepe district. Following stricter building codes, the district underwent significant demolition and construction between 2014 and 2015. We employ construction data and credit card transaction data to analyze the demographic changes. We find that urban regeneration due to building renewal may have diverse context-dependent effects on the demographic tapestry of communities, their culture and history. While some neighborhoods showed positive response to increased local amenities and resulted in reduced mobility outside their local area, leading to greater income segregation from the rest of the city, others behaved in the opposite direction. Similarly, the transformation process has attracted a more educated and higher-income inflow of residents in some neighborhoods compared to others. Herein, we employ new big data and mobility-driven metrics from computational social science such as diversity, loyalty and assortativity to reveal the link between urban regeneration and segregation. Our findings provide important clues and insights to urban planners for developing urban policies leading to neighborhood designs that are more connected to each other (hence reducing segregation) while still offering modern amenities expected by their residents.Article Citation Count: 2Determinants of Fertility Rates in Turkey(Routledge Journals, Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2020) Özbay Daş, Zühal; Ekonomi ve Finans BölümüIn this study, the fertility changes are examined through the combining political and economic aspects of Turkey. For this purpose, it examines if a long-run relationship between economic and institutional variables and fertility rates of Turkey exists. The long-run relations between income, democracy, polarization, government spending, and fertility rates will thus be analyzed through the Autoregressive Distribute Lag (ARDL) cointegration technique. The results reveal that per capita income, government expenditure, and democracy are one of the key determinants of fertility. Per capita income and government expenditure are negatively associated with fertility, but democracy is positively associated with fertility. The results further showed that the fertility decline is robust after the implementation of compulsory education policy in 1997. The study enlightens the long run effect of government on fertility behavior either through policy implementation or government expenditure, but the association between fertility and institutions in Turkey is rather vague.
