Çalışma, günümüz Türkiye’sindeki ‘millet bahçeleri’ ve bunları üretmeye yönelik devlet ve hükümet politikalarına odaklanırken kamusal yeşil alanların devlet tarafından sembolik ve mekânsal araçlar olarak geliştirilmesini ve bu süreçlerdeki plan ve tasarım kriterlerini Türkiye tarihinin eski dönemleri (Osmanlı ve Osmanlı öncesi) ile ilişkilendirerek araştırmıştır. Çalışma, kamusal yeşil alanların tarihi dönemlerdeki özelliklerini ikincil yazınsal kaynaklara ve Mayıs 2018’de Başkan Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’ın duyurduğu “millet bahçesi” projelerine ve uygulamalarına dair internet haberlerini incelememize dayanarak gelişmiştir. Araştırma sonuçlarına göre, kamusal yeşil alanlar devletin uluslararası ve ulusal platformlarda gücünü sergilemesinde, devlet ideolojilerinin halka aktarılmasında ve yeni ‘vatandaş’ ve toplum kimlikleri oluşturmakta önemli rol oynamaktadır. Her ne kadar bu niyetler kamusal yeşil alanlarla ilgili geçmiş ve günümüz politikalarıyla örtüşse de, günümüz “millet bahçesi”nin sunumu 19. ve 20. yüzyıldaki örneklerden farklılık göstermektedir. Batı stili modernleşme hedeflerine vurgu yapmayan resmi açıklamalar, millet bahçelerini Türkiye’nin ve hükümetin uluslararası ve ulusal itibarını tekrar arttırmak amacıyla kullanmakta ve geçmiş dönemleri ise “gelenekler”in günümüze uzanmasını sağlayan kaynaklar olarak görmektedirler.
Focusing on the contemporary Turkey’s “nation gardens” and the state and governmental policies to build them, this study investigated the development processes and design features of these public green spaces with respect to those from past era of Turkey (extending to Ottoman and pre-Ottoman history) and the development of public green spaces as the state’s symbolic and spatial tools. The study relied on secondary sources about public green spaces from past eras of Turkey and also on the review of online news about "nation gardens" initiated after President Erdoğan's announcement in May 2018. Our findings suggested that public green spaces in Turkey have played an important role in displaying the state’s power nationally and internationally as well as to transfer the state’s ideologies to people and thus, to build new identities of ‘cidadans.’ Interestingly, in sharing these intentions of past policies for public green spaces, the recent introduction of national gardens differs from those in the 19th and 20th centuries. Without any emphasis on modernization goals in the western-style, recent official talks described nation gardens as a way to raise Turkey and the government's reputation both nationally and internationally, while also referring to past eras but with other characteristics as the source of "traditions" extending to today.
