Göçmenlerin Sosyal Uyumu Üzerine Kuramsal Ve Pratik Bir Çerçeve
Anahtar Kelimeler
The concept of social cohesion is considered by
many social scientists as one of the most important factors to be taken into
account in order to reduce and manage the negative effects of migration in host
countries. Especially for the effective management of the post-migration
process, the social cohesion of migrants needs to be enhanced. Integration and
social cohesion are often presented as equivalent concepts, however; there are
differences between these two concepts. Integration is the process of migrants
settling into a new society, interacting with the host community, and
experiencing social change. It is a dynamic network of relationships between
two communities. For a successful integration process, it has become
increasingly dominant to believe that not only should migrants adapt to the
host community, but also the host community should evolve and change during
this process. Social cohesion on the other hand, is a broader concept that also
includes integration. During this process, migrants try to understand and adopt
the social, cultural, and institutional norms of the host community. Social
cohesion involves migrants actively participating in the host community while
preserving their own cultural identities. When we look into the integration and
social cohesion policies of Turkey, it ranks quite low down in international
reports and indexes in terms of social cohesion and integration. From practical
framework; in order to increase social cohesion, it is of great importance for
Turkey and other countries to promote cultural awareness and understanding,
provide language support, support family reunification, support housing and
accommodation, facilitate access to education, support employment and
entrepreneurship, provide health and well-being and also involve migrants in
decision-making processes, ensure media representation of migrants, ensure
legal integration of migrants, protect their rights, and finally, it’s highly
important to conduct monitoring and evaluation studies regarding all of forementioned
practices and activities.
