Transformation of Villages to Neighborhoods within the Framework of the Amendments of Law No. 6360 Abstract: The concepts of village and neighbourhood are the structures which have existed in local government structure for many years. There are various legal, sociological and cultural characteristics of being a village and neighbourhood. Additionally, as the Law No. 6360 on the Establishment of the Fourteen Metropolitan Municipalities and Twenty-seven Districts and the Law on the Amendment of Certain Laws and Statutory Decrees has been enacted by Grand National Assembly of Turkey on 14.03.2013, and has been implemented by publishing on Official Gazette, these two concepts which have different legal structures are subject to new legal regulations. With this law, all the villages in the provinces that have metropolitan status have been transformed into neighbourhoods. Definitely, this transformation has resulted in many sociological, psychological and legal consequences. In this study, the Law No. 6360 was evaluated within the framework of 2014 local election, which is the first year of implementation of the Law. With this Law, the transformation of some provinces into the metropolitan municipalities which is the most fundamental change in the local government structure, the transformation of the villages of these municipalities into neighbourhoods, and the closure of some city municipalities were examined.
