Od globalności do lokalności: przemiany ruchu klimatycznego w Turcji
From globality to locality : the dynamics of the climate movement in Turkey

Summary/Abstract: The aim of the paper is to present the genesis and transformation of the Turkish climate activism from the global to local level. The movement’s origins are rooted in the urban space, but, especially in the movement’s early period, the social mobilization was directed most of all at the efforts to influence the international climate politics. In the context of disappointment with the lack of specific solutions at the highest level, Turkish climate-related NGOs and informal groups are paying increasing attention to the local level, including cities and urban policies. The key factors behind that strategic change include the lack of responsiveness from the state to the movement’s postulates and also the global and European trends of increasing the role of cities in search for specific solutions to halt the climate crisis.
