We are together again with a tiring and full-fledged page. Our 36th edition coincided with December and the birth of the December issue of academic journalism is another stress and painful. This time next year, we will publish our 40th edition, and we will start our editorial writing saying 41 times of Mashallah.
As time goes by, it’s like ‘a passengers on the road ’ our magazine continues the development process.Each number adds new field editors. In this issue, with a new participating of our field editors, Prof.Dr. Tuğba KİPER, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Candan KUŞ ŞAHİN, MD Betsy SULLAM HALFON, Oylum GÖKKURT BAKI our broadcasting table has increased to 33 branch editors.
From this issue, we prepared the Main Branch editorship (Main science / Main arts branch)and field editorship (Science / Art Branch) as preparation for 2019. Almost with the power of knowledge, we formed the upper class academy of the city.
Dear Authors:
Before we take the referee process, in principle, each article (sent within the period of publication) , passing through the Itenticate program.
However, in the following processes, articles submitted without using our article template, will be left to the usual flow , if the articles are created according to the template we would like to state that the followed status will be given priority . As of 2019, our journal will start to give DOI.
Our aim is to make our Kent Academy magazine a source of pride for our country in the scientific community, and within a few years, to become the focus of interdisciplinary, multidisciplinary, and transdisciplinary studies of the world science environment , via taking part of indexes such as SCI, SSCI, ISI.
The Bleeding Wounds of Our Cities: The Problem of Urban Regeneration and Unbalanced Horizontal Stitching Trends in Metropolitan Areas
As it is known, cities that absorbed the population of the 1960s rural areas have formed the cities where human masses live in the name of Megapol due to unplanned irregular structures without infrastructure. After the 1990s and especially in the 2000s, both in terms of infrastructure and superstructure, it has been forced to experience both the structure and the mentality revolution in the geography that has been transformed into such a chaos.
The places that have undergone urban change in terms of structure had to live the process of urbanization with a mentality. They learned that ,unstable buildings would damage first of all to themselves , If they stand, they should be positioned on the right and give way to fast passers (foreseeing that those have a right who want to go faster on the escalator are entitled), not leaving shoes in front of doors in apartment buildings. Just as the educators did the training by learning new things themselves, our cities became cities learning with their structures and people.
Trend: From Engineering to Architecture, from Vertical to Horizontal
Today, the construction processes of the structures are technically practical and the structures of the automation system have started to be constructed and the engineering dimension of the structure has become known and predictable. The practicality and ease-of-the-step process of this dimension has led to detailed trends from engineering to architecture. Especially in the last 50 years, urban centers have been carrying a vertical upward trend, while yesterday’s suburbs and eaves have been caught in this verticalization wind.
Since the 1950s, suburbs have been subject to distorted construction, and since 2000, urban transformation has become inevitable, especially after the Gölcük and Sakarya earthquakes. Hereby, so to speak , for take advantage of , it has been influenced via uptrend at the city center. In other developing world cities, similar characteristics are observed for such regions and structures.
From the city center to suburban and satellite cities, the Metropolitan Region Renewal continued its upward trend and was under the centrifugal effect of growth as a result of dizzying developments in transportation and communication techniques and technologies.
The vertical tendency in the structures in these skidding areas was replaced by the new manor areas as they were replaced by the center. At this point, metropolitan cities, with the effect of reverse migration, merged with several metropolitan areas and turned into metropolitan areas. In the meantime, the next 100 years will be spent with the development and infrastructure of the mansion areas spread over suburban areas.
Yes, precious readers, again from this day to the future, we have put forward a horizon line although we use hand procedure though.
In the March 2019 issue of our journal, we will focus on Environmental Management and Policies.
In the June 2019 issue, we will also focus on the ZERO WASTE agenda as a detail of the environmental theme. In the hope of meeting the more beautiful and bright tomorrow,my dear.

Urban Development is, like the development of Plant Cells!
From the Editor
In our thirty-fifth publication period our focus is again on the original and current academic studies which are aiming the examination, scrutinization, and analization of the issues and problematiques of the superstructures and substructures in urban areas.
As we have announced in the last issue, we will present thematic content in this issue. As we mentioned in the title, we tried to show that especially the healing process of the superstructure and substructure in urban areas is a dynamic structure, while considering the cities equal with the development of plant cells. As Ibn Khaldun has stated in his works, states have a life, they are born, grow, and die. Although there is a lifetime of states based on a certain piece of land, cities do not have.
Urban areas, like plant cells, protect their existence with their flexible structures firstly with constantly renewing themselves, then they maintain their life with protecting this structure after taking or establishing their identities. The process of maturation in cities is similar to the process of wisdom and specialization in humans. As cities enter the maturation period, which requires a period of at least three hundred or four hundred years for a city, the periods of stagnation represent their periods of grandeur. A city at this level is already referred as “ancient city”, and categorized by the united nations as ‘cittaslow’ firstly, and then the ‘ancient city to be protected’.
Transportation and Communication are the Basis of Mobilization in Urban Areas.
While the development processes of the cities are in this position, transportation on one side and institutionalization in the communication sectors on the other side they both have an accelerating effect on the maturation processes of cities.
The urban, inter-city or international transportation systems become part of the institutionalization of cities as long as they are in accordance with the ergonomics of social needs, and adapt to the global accreditations. Otherwise, the cities where accreditation, integration and synchronization do not work will not only sabotage their own future, but also prevent the development of other cities around the world. Also, the sub-structures and systems which are indifferent to the needs of the city dwellers in cities cause the isolation of that city in particular and country in general. In this respect, the transportation infrastructure in a city requires a harmonization in the means of transport on a species basis on one hand, and also in terms of transportation techniques or methods on the other hand. The work also requires the combination of the same transport systems and infrastructures with the transport systems of other countries. In this context, overlapping of the transportation types and techniques with the transportation systems of the developed cities in the world in line with the developing technological means, have vital importance in the development of the tourism potential of that city in particular and country in general.
Because the development process of the communication systems between people is proceeding in geometric speed, it requires the flexibility and accreditation of urban infrastructures at the point of mobilization of the citizens.
Geometric speedly developing communication systems are a driving and compelling factor in the synchronization of transportation networks in the context of time, orer arrangements, compensation systems, and means of transportation. The structures supported by the transportation software which should be a part of the “big data” which is determined with a fuzzy logic, became an inevitable situation in our world which is a global village.
New Sector in The World: Street Economy, Micron Entrepreneurship

The academic and sectoral initiatives of the assistant editor of our journal Osman SIRKECI, about the formation of a new sector which known as Street Economy or micron entrepreneur all around the world are continuing. In this context, The Global Street Economy Congress which the first one was held in Malta Valetta and our journal is in the editorial board and secretariat, was held with the theme of the III. Democracy Symposium in a dynamic, energetic and synergistic atmosphere. In the context of placing the street economy within the sector, this movement which has developed between the world countries on the economic basis as a hope to our aging and polluted world, has also undertaken the mission of being a bridge between states and cultures.
Under the leadership of Mr. Sirkeci, the Malta Conferences supported by the State Minister of Malta within the scope of our work on Global Street Economy, includes many new countries. The snowballing movement is rapidly Okumaya devam et
