Özet: The aim of this study is to search for traces of the Republican ideology in the city space of Giresun on periphery. Every act of practice specific to the city is nurtured by cultures, geographies or local actors of the cities in addition to center-based ideological approaches. Giresun is a city that experienced the ideology-based modernization process observed in general in Anatolian in parallel with the developments at local scale. While the modernization efforts and practices in the city were shaped by the predictions and ideology of the center, they were put into practice with an experience and sensitivity independent from the center. The period of 1930-1940, during which attempt was made to spread the Republican ideology to the periphery through architectural and cultural activities, were determined as the temporal focus of the study. The ideology was read parallel with concrete symbols of Giresun city, and architecture and cultural activities that accelerate social transformation. Yeşilgiresun, which is one of the oldest local newspapers of Anatolia, was placed in the focus of the study, and effort was given to interpret the traces of the Republican ideology in the city through news about place and culture by using the semiotic analysis method.
