Turkey is one of the countries most affected by the Syrian international migration wave, which is one of the most controversial issues that affect most countries in the world. With this effect, many different disciplines have conducted research on Syrian refugees. However, it is observed that the majority of these researches are directed towards the refugees living in the camps, and there is a lack of research on the refugees who settled in the cities despite the increasing importance of urban refugee concept. In order to fill this gap in the literature, in this thesis, the socio-spatial effects of the Syrian refugees settling in the cities of Turkey is analyzed. In this sense, the thesis study advocates the idea that the analysis of refugees' arrival in Turkey, the patterns of settlement in cities, the daily life experiences in the city, and the networks of solidarity and relations amongst them and with the Turks are important in terms of understanding refugees and revealing their effects in cities. In this context, within the scope of the thesis research, migration and settlement patterns, solidarity and social networks of Syrian refugees is analyzed through time geographic method, which is also used in migration studies as well as in many other areas and a common part of social sciences and geography disciplines, within the fieldwork research in selected case, Önder neighborhood and surroundings located in Ankara, Turkey.

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...
A Multi-level and multi-sited analysis of the European Union’s immigration and asylum policy concerning irregular migration and its implications for Turkey : Edirne and İzmir as two major gateway cities
Gökalp Aras, Ela Nefise; Rittersberger Tılıç, Helga İda; Department of Sociology (2013)
In order to control migration movements and its external borders, the European Union (EU) has been implementing different policies and policy instruments. In particular, concerning irregular migration, delocalization is used for controlling and supported by securitization and economisation discourse. Within this framework, the EU uses the external dimension of its immigrant and asylum policy as a mode of governance and adopts different policy instruments and tailor-made measures for each country for operati...

Shelter from the storm: health service access and utilization among Syrian refugees in Turkey
Özen, İlhan Can; Tuncay Alpanda, Berna; Bump, Jesse (2022-03-01)
Aim Since 2011, the confict in Syria has led to the migration of 5.6 million refugees, mainly to neighbouring countries. By the start of 2019, over 3.5 million people had moved to Turkey to seek safety, meaning that Turkey is hosting the majority of these refugees. Most of them are today settled in urban and peri-urban locations. A large part of the health services of these populations had been cut before their move, leaving a signifcant population that had been unprotected and under-provided for. The T...
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...
