Teritoryayla Sınırlandırma: Avrupa Birliği ve Çok Düzeyli Teritoryal Yönetişim

Bu çalışma, teritoryal yönetişimin Avrupa Birliği’nin (AB) yönetimsel ve teritoryal yapısı üzerindeki etkisini tartışmaktadır. AB içerisinde yönetişim, Birliğin teritoryal bütünlüğünü ve uyumunu güçlendirmeye ilişkin olarak artan şekilde teritoryal bir bağlamda ele alınmaktadır. Birlik, teritoryal alanların kurumsallığını güçlendirmeyi ve farklı yönetimsel düzeyler arasında dikey ve yatay işbirliğini kurmayı hedeflemektedir. Bu yönetim biçimi, AB’nin teritoryasıyla sınırlandırılmaktadır ve böylece kapsayıcı tek bir siyasal ölçek ortaya çıkmaktadır. Bu çerçevede bu çalışma, AB’nin teritoryal durumuna/gündemine ve mekânsal gelişimine ilişkin belgeleri ve mevcut literatürü inceleyerek AB içerisinde teritoryal olarak değerlendirilen yönetişim mekânlarının iç içe geçmiş olduğunu ve bu yapının uluslar üstü bir teritoryaya bağlandığı ileri sürülmektedir.

BOUNDING THROUGH TERRITORY: EUROPEAN UNION AND MULTI-LEVEL TERRITORIAL GOVERNANCE

This study discusses what implications territorial governance has on the governmental and territorial nature of the European Union (EU). The EU increasingly addresses governance on a territorial basis to improve its territorial integrity and coherence. It seeks to set up horizontal and vertical cooperation between different governmental levels and strengthen the institutionalization of territories. This way of governing is bounded by the EU’s territory, thereby a single overarching political scale emerges. In this framework, perusing into the documents on spatial development and territorial state/agenda of the EU and the available literature, the study suggests that the spaces of governance in the EU, considered as territorial, are interwoven, and this structure is attached to a supranational territory.
