INTERSECTING LIVES IN POST-MIGRATION PERIOD: THE DYNAMICS OF RELATIONS BETWEEN “HOST” WOMEN FROM TURKEY AND “GUEST” WOMEN FROM SYRIA

Öz:

2011'de başlayan Suriye'deki ayaklanma ve ardından patlakveren çatışmalar sonrasında kapılarını Suriyeli mültecilereaçan Türkiye, dünyada en büyük mülteci nüfusuna evsahipliği yaparak Suriye insani krizinde önemli bir rolüstlenmektedir. Çağımızda bir insan hakları gereği olarakortaya çıkan mültecilik olgusu, Türkiye'de krizin en başındanberi misafirlik söylemi üzerinden yürütülmektedir. Gerekhalihazırda Suriyeli mültecilerin tabi olduğu geçici korumarejimi gerekse krizin en başından beri sürdürülen misafirliksöylemi, meselenin sosyolojik boyutuna önemli bir tabanoluşturmaktadır. 'Ev sahibi' ve 'misafir' kavramlarının bellitoplumsal normlar çerçevesinde şekillenen ilişkiler sonucundaortaya çıktığı ve bu ilişkilerin en temel özelliğinin kısasürelilik olduğu düşünüldüğünde; 2,5 milyondan fazlasışehirlerde yaşayan Suriyeli mültecinin, savaş şu anda bitsedahi ülkelerine dönüşünün kısa vadede gerçekleşmeyeceğiöngörüsü başka bir sorunsala odaklanmak zorundaolduğumuza işaret etmektedir. Bu durumda, kentlerdeyaşayan mülteciler bağlamında, asıl sorulması gereken soruülke içerisine yerleşen ve uzun vadede kalıcı olacağıvarsayılan bu yeni 'yabancı' grubun diğer topluluklarla nasıluyum sağlayacağıdır.Toplumsal cinsiyet kavramını temel alarak başlanılan buçalışmada içerdekinin dışardakine, dışardakinin de içerdekinebakışının hangi faktörler etrafında şekillendiği Simmel veçağdaşlarının "yabancılık" tanımlamaları bağlamında incelenecektir. Doktora çalışması kapsamında, Hatay veGaziantep şehirlerinde Suriyeli mülteci kadınlar ve Türkiyelikadınlar ile yapılan derinlemesine görüşmeler ve odak grupgörüşmeleri bu çalışmanın alt yapısını oluşturacaktır.

GÖÇ SONRASI KESİŞEN HAYATLAR: “EV SAHİBİ” TÜRKİYELİ KADINLAR VE “MİSAFİR” SURİYELİ KADINLAR ARASINDAKİ İLİŞKİ DİNAMİKLERİ

Öz:

Turkey undertakes an important role in responding to theSyrian humanitarian crisis by hosting the largest number ofrefugee population around the world through opening itsborders to Syrian refugees subsequent to the conflict in Syriaafter 2011. Turkey has been managing the refugeephenomenon at the beginning with a discourse of ‘guest’. Thetemporary protection regime for Syrian refugees in Turkeyratified in October 2014 on the one hand, and the discourse of‘guest’ on the other, constitute significant basis to thesociological aspect of the matter at hand. By nature, the terms‘host’ and ‘guest’ imply an element of temporariness. Againstthis backdrop, there is a pressing need to focus on the factthat over 2.5 million refugees settled in the urban areas willnot be returning shortly to their country of origin even if thewar is over now. Given the magnitude of the refugeepopulation, the real question is then the adaptation of this‘stranger’ group which has settled in the country and likely tostay in the long term within the urban context.This study, based on gendered perspective, aims to explorethe factors determining the perception of the insider for theoutsider and vice versa within the scope of Simmel’s ‘stranger’typology. Following Simmel’s definition of the stranger, inthis article I consider Syrian refugees as people who comestoday and stays tomorrow. The methodology of this study isbased on in-depth interviews with refugee women from Syriaand native women in Turkey as well as focus group meetingsin Hatay and Gaziantep provinces, conducted in theframework of my PhD thesis.
