Özet

The differences between interregional development levels in Turkey stand out prominently. As well as some factors, which take part on this issue, mainly political - administrative policies have caused this case. Nevertheless, on the other hand, various structural changes and transformations have occurred in Turkey for elimination of inequality and for development while new formations are being implemented. One of these formations is clearly the "development agencies", which are formed within the framework of EU harmonization process. Elimination of interregional inequalities in Turkey and thus actualisation of a strategic regional development plan are targeted through the development agencies. In this study, the role played by development agencies in Turkey in regional development will be assessed within the context of the aforementioned information and issues. The questions we will try to answer are mainly as follows: Can development agencies take an efficient role in the issue of regional development? Can development agencies in Turkey develop unique and generalizable policies? What are the disadvantages and deficiencies of development agencies in terms of their structures and organization? Do development agencies have a future?
