Abstract (2. Language): 
Studies applied the principals of Situational Crime Prevention (SCP) theory generally have obtained positive results in preventing crime. A new discussion has emerged among criminology scholars that SCP theory can be applied to very different types of crimes, such as white collar crime, female trafficking, and drug trafficking incidents. In this context, this study evaluates the capability of SCP theory in predicting the terrorist attacks. Two types of data were used for the study: (1) buildings attacks (1998-2008) obtained from Institute for the Study of Violent Groups (SVG) and (2) environmental characteristics of buildings obtained from Istanbul Municipality. Based on the analysis of 16 building attacks carried by Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), the study findings reveal that the PKK targets certain places and buildings to make the crime more influential as well as more feasible as SCP theory points out.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Ortamsal Suç Önleme (OSÖ) teorisini test eden çalışmalar suçun önlenmesinde genellikle olumlu sonuçlar elde etmektedirler. OSÖ teorisinin Beyaz Yaka, İnsan ve Uyuşturucu Ticareti gibi değişik tür suçlara da uygulanabilirliği konusunda akademisyenler arasında yeni bir tartışma başlamıştır. Bu kapsamda, bu çalışma OSÖ teorisinin terörist saldırıları öngörü kapasitesini değerlendirmektedir. Çalışmada iki tür veri kullanılmıştır: (1) Şiddet Gruplarını Çalışma Kurumu’ndan elde edilen veriler,1998- 2008 yıları arasında meydana gelen binalara yönelik saldırıları içermekte, (2) İstanbul Büyükşehir Belediye’si tarafından düzenlenen veriler, saldırının gerçekleştiği binaların çevresel özelliklerini kapsamaktadır. PKK terör örgütü tarafından düzenlenmiş 16 adet bina saldırı olayının analizi sonucu, bu araştırma OSÖ teorisinin de belirttiği gibi, PKK terör örgütünün, suçun hem daha fazla infial uyandırması hem de daha kolay işlenebilmesi için belirli yerleri ve binaları hedef aldığını ortaya koymaktadır.
