Journal Title: Uluslararası Ekonomi ve Yenilik Dergisi - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The foundations of the Cittaslow Movement were laid in 1999 in Orvieto, Italy. This movement has emerged as a different alternative to urban life, where a rapid and consumption-based life predominates as a result of the standardization brought by globalization. In this study, firstly Cittaslow Movement, which is an important contribution to urban life in particular areas, especially tourism, by preserving local characteristics, was introduced. Secondly, in the case of Seferihisar, the first Cittaslow of Turkey, the contributions that this movement provided or could provide in economic and fiscal terms were investigated. In the study; positive developments in Seferihisar especially in fields such as organic agriculture, tourism, women's employment and renewable energy have come to the conclusion that there can be more extensively in other Cittaslow cities that exist in Turkey today and can be included in this system in the future. It also emphasized the importance of the government's implementation of Cittaslow and the preparation of special legislation and special incentive programs in supportive and regulatory frameworks for projects in this context.
