Abstract

This paper aims to examine the distinct conditions and implications of a multi-level stakeholder analysis for the governance of urban-rural intersections through a case study in Istanbul, adopting an advanced stakeholder analysis from UN-Habitat. Based on a case study of the landscape identity of Istanbul's rural settlements, the study offers multi-level definitions of the 331 stakeholders detected, power-influence matrices, and strategies that may foster balanced multi-level urban-rural governance practices in a major metropolitan area. The findings highlight the multiplicity of levels, sectors, resources, and the actors’ differing capacities and interests to influence rural-urban governance decisions as well as their implementation.
