Abstract

This paper explores some deeply embedded differences between urban development processes. These are revealed in a Turkish case study by systematically analysing exogenous contingent events and trajectories. The study tests the concept of path dependence as a framework for analysing urban transformation. It examines the hybrid neo-liberal urban transformation along the Levent-Maslak axis, the extension of Istanbul's CBD (central business district). Commercial property development along the Levent-Maslak axis started in the late 1960s and, since the 1990s, the axis has become the financial heart of the city (even of the country) .
