Abstract

Dünya genelinde karma evliliklere bağlı göçler artmaktadır. Buna paralel olarak ulusaşırı ekonomik pratikler sürdüren göçmenler içinde evlilik göçmenleri de artmaya başlamıştır. Bu sürecin çeşitli mekânsal yansımaları görülmeye başlanmıştır. Bununla birlikte etnik kimliğin ve evlilik statüsünün gidilen ülkedeki anlamına göre evlilik göçmenlerinin bu pratikleri sürdürmelerinde büyük mekânsal farklılıklar görülmektedir. Bu çalışmada, etnik kimliğin ve evlilik statüsünün, yaygın karma evlilik göçü paterninin tipik bir örneği olmayan Türkiye'deki Alman evlilik göçmenlerinin ulusaşırı ekonomik pratiklerine etkisi ortaya konmaktadır. 7 ilde yaşayan 16 evlilik göçmeniyle yapılan derinlemesine görüşmelere dayanarak, etnik kimliğin ve evlilik statüsünün Türkiye'deki Alman evlilik göçmenlerinin ekonomik pratikler sürdürmelerini desteklemeye hizmet ettiği; bu pratikler yoluyla ulusaşırı ortaklıkların arttığı ve pek çok işin dijitalleşmesinin hızlandığı görülmüştür.
