Abstract

This study aims to analyze global trends and spatial approaches in the literature on post-earthquake resettlement during the 2015–2025 period using bibliometric methods. A total of 890 articles obtained from the Web of Science database were examined through performance analysis and scientific mapping techniques. The findings indicate that, beginning in 2021, the literature evolved from technical seismological analyses toward a socio-spatial resilience paradigm. China stands out as the leading country in the field in terms of publication volume, while studies centered on Japan and Chile were found to be visible in collaboration networks in relation to themes such as post-disaster resettlement, participatory planning, and social cohesion. The rising algorithmic trend after 2023 highlights the growing importance of artificial intelligence-supported site selection models. In the case of Türkiye, studies conducted after the 2023 earthquakes confirm the critical role of spatial belonging in settlement success. The study proposes holistic models that integrate technical efficiency and social legitimacy for sustainable recovery.

Özet

Bu çalışma, 2015-2025 döneminde deprem sonrası yeniden yerleşme literatüründeki küresel eğilimleri ve mekânsal yaklaşımları bibliyometrik yöntemle analiz etmeyi amaçlamaktadır. Web of Science veri tabanından elde edilen 890 makale, performans analizi ve bilimsel haritalama teknikleriyle incelenmiştir. Bulgular, literatürün 2021 yılından itibaren teknik sismolojik analizlerden sosyo-mekânsal dayanıklılık paradigmasına evrildiğini göstermektedir. Çin, yayın sayısı bakımından alanda öne çıkan ülke konumundadır.; Japonya ve Şili merkezli çalışmaların ise afet sonrası yeniden yerleşim, katılımcı planlama ve toplumsal uyum temaları bakımından işbirliği ağlarında görünür olduğu belirlenmiştir. 2023 sonrası yükselen algoritma trendi, yapay zekâ destekli yer seçim modellerinin önemini ortaya koymaktadır. Türkiye özelinde ise 2023 depremleri sonrası çalışmalar, mekânsal aidiyetin yerleşme başarısındaki kritik rolünü teyit etmektedir. Çalışma, sürdürülebilir iyileşme için teknik verimlilik ile toplumsal meşruiyetin entegre edildiği bütüncül modelleri önermektedir.
