Abstract

Cumhuriyet'in ilk yıllarında nüfusun büyük kısmının köylerde yaşaması ve üretimin büyük bir kısmının köylerden karşılanması nedeniyle köylerin ülkenin gelişimi ve modernleşmesinde önemli bir yeri olduğu düşünülüyordu. Bu nedenle İdeal Cumhuriyet Köyü fikri ortaya çıktı ve belirlenen bölgelere örnek köyler kurulmasına karar verildi. Etimesgut bölgesinde 1928'de kurulan Ahi Mesut Köyü bunlardan biriydi. Modern bir mimariye ve birçok kuruma sahip olan köye Bulgaristan'dan gelen göçmenler yerleştirildi. İlerleyen yıllarda Ankara'nın ve Etimesgut'un nüfusunun ve şehirleşmenin artmasıyla örnek köy yapısı kaybolmaya başladı.


In the first years of the Republic, most of the population of Turkey was living in rural areas and a big proportion of the production in the country came from rural areas, hence it was thought that villages had importance for development and modernization of the country. In line with this thought, the idea of Ideal Republic Village appeared and it was applied by constructing villages in determined areas. Ahi Mesut Village, which was built in Etimesgut, was one of the products of this Project. It had modern architecture and there were many institutions in the village and the immigrants who came from Bulgaria were settled in the village. In the following years, due to increase in population and urbanization in Ankara and Etimesgut, ideal village structure has started to disappear.
