Turkey has hosted millions of Syrians since 2011. Millions of Syrians came to the country in a short time. Hosts in Turkey were not prepared to face with this mass influx. Therefore, hosts generally reflect negative attitudes towards Syrians and this negativeness may result in conflict between these groups. To prevent violence and conflict between these groups, it is important to reveal antecedents of intergroup prejudice in Turkish context. According to Dual Process Model of prejudice, ideological attitudes (Social Dominance Orientation-SDO and Right-Wing Authoritarianism-RWA) predict prejudice through two independent paths. In this study, relationship between CJW (Competitive Jungle World), DWB (Dangerous World Belief), SDO, RWA, threat perception, and prejudice was investigated (Study 1). In Study 1, there were 246 participants. The results indicated that DWB did not predict RWA. However, CJW predicted prejudice through the mediation of SDO and realistic threat. Moreover, effect of imagined contact on that relationship was tried to be revealed (Study 2). In Study 2, there were 453 participants. It was found that imagined contact decreased the prejudice depending on the prejudice measure. The results indicated that dual process model of prejudice partially works in Syrians context in Turkey and imagined contact decreases prejudice depending on prejudice measure.

Effect of the Access to Healthcare Services Among Syrian Refugees in Turkey
Özen, İlhan Can; Tuncay Alpanda, Berna (2022-03-01)
The Syrian population influx has dislocated a significant number of people (6.7 million of people outside the Syrian borders, 6.5 million of people among the different provinces of Syria). The biggest group among this moving population between borders has integrated into the Turkish society, and economy. From the macro and micro perspectives, the health system integration is significantly graded by the Syrian population. We will focus on the early age group, among the refugees, as their health vulner...
Bridging borders from Asia to Europe: a case study on Uyghur and Hazara migration to Turkey
Vander Velde, Madeline Andrea; Kuşçu Bonnenfant, Işık; Department of International Relations (2019)
In the last five years, Turkey has hosted the most refugees in the world. Although very different in regard to the journeys they take as asylum seekers, Uyghurs and Hazaras make up two of these refugee communities that end their passage in Turkey. By first exploring related critical political moments and ethno-cultural identity, this thesis intends to identify the beginnings of persecution and connect them to more recent developments. The objective is to examine how the refugee path to protection of these t...
The Politics of immigration policy making in Turkey between 2002-2015
Devlet Karapınar, Yelda; Bağcı, Hüseyin; Rittersberger Tılıç, Helga İda; Department of International Relations (2015)
Turkey is positioned at a significant spot within the international migration regimes; as very often called in the literature as “on the crossroads” between Asia, Africa and Europe. This connectivity to numerous emigration and immigration countries makes Turkey highly vulnerable to changing trends of international migration and requires Turkey to streamline its migration policy responses accordingly. Given Turkey’s evolving position as a regional power as well as an international actor, this study aims to a...
The Impact of GCR on Local Governments and Syrian Refugees in Turkey
Kale Lack, Başak (Wiley, 2019-12-01)
In the last couple of years, more than 3.6 million Syrian refugees have been hosted under the "temporary protection" scheme in Turkey. Despite these high numbers Turkey did not have a centralized refugee settlement and integration policy. As a result, various stakeholders including local governments have played critical roles in providing refugee assistance services. This research looks at the role of local governments in delivering services evolving from emergency response to local integration. This articl...
Challenges of Safe Urban Speed Management in Developing Countries
Türe Kibar, Funda; Tüydeş Yaman, Hediye (2019-06-20)
Turkey, as one of the middle-income countries, is facing with an increasing motorization in the last decades. This situation also causes a major traffic safety problem on Turkish roads, where 7000+ people lost their lives, and almost 300,000 people get injured annually. When considering factors causing traffic accidents, ‘speed’ is a complex phenomenon which needs to be examined with more attention and different dimensions. This becomes even more problematic in urban regions that face large migration and th...
