Lühikirjeldus: Strictly protected natural areas have been created in order to prevent the destruction and exploitation of natural resources that have intensified with the Anthropocene era. Today, with neoliberal approaches, intervention in protected natural areas has increased and there has been an intense commodification of nature. Privatization, commodification and marketization of these areas lead to environmental degradation. The subsistence activities of local people living in these areas are affected by nature conservation areas in various ways. Rural regions and nature reserves often face conflicting interests, particularly as economic pressures and neoliberal policies commodify natural resources, affecting both ecological integrity and local livelihoods. Through the analytical lens of urban political ecology, conservation approaches developed from the industrial revolution to the present day are discussed and their shortcomings and positive aspects are evaluated and methods that can be put into practice are discussed. The legal changes that emerged during the Adalet ve Kalkınma Partisi (AK Party), the ruling party of Turkey, are discussed and the impact of neoliberal policies on nature conservation areas is examined. The positive as well as problematic aspects of the Sinop Nature Tourism Master Plan that emerged with these policies are discussed. The main purpose of this study has been twofold. Firstly, it contributes to opening up conservation theory by engaging with the ideas of convivial conservation. Secondly, it provides a situated, ethnographic research-based study of the real-life conflicts emerging at the nexus of rural life and conservation in Turkey. Combining these two strands of investigation, it hopes to provide the conceptual and research-based evidence that can inform policy makers and identify practices that align conservation efforts with rural socio-economic realities within the Sarıkum Nature Conservation Area.
