International Migration Dynamics in the Context of OECD Countries

Year 2021, Volume: 3 Issue: 1, 54 - 78, 01.06.2021

Abstract

Globalization, one of the important phenomena of today, has led to political, social and economic changes in both regional and national scale. These rapid changes seriously affect the phenomenon of migration, its target and the quality of life. Especially in EU and OECD countries, various policies have been implemented to prevent the increasing migration rate, fulfill the requirements of the global economy, and to eliminate the developmental differences between countries, regions and sub-regions. Thus, it is of great importance to investigate the causes of international migrant mobility that deeply affects the economic and social structure of nations. The present study aimed to determine the factors that affect international migration towards the OECD countries. A current data set consisting of 79 variables defining the social, economic, environmental structure was created and correlation and regression analysis methods were used to determine the factors that affected international migration in OECD countries. With this work; it has been observed that there are strong relationships between international migration and various economic and social development variables. Hence, it is envisaged to make a descriptive and statistically valid, reliable assessment, to make predictions, and to contribute to the scientific literature in the context of international migration policies.

OECD Ülkeleri Bağlamında Uluslararası Göç Dinamikleri

Year 2021, Volume: 3 Issue: 1, 54 - 78, 01.06.2021

Abstract

Günümüzün önemli olgularından biri olan küreselleşme, hem bölgesel hem de ulusal ölçekte politik, sosyal ve ekonomik değişikliklere yol açmıştır. Bu hızlı değişimler göç olgusunu, hedefini ve yaşam kalitesini önemli şekilde etkilemektedir. Özellikle AB ve OECD ülkelerinde artan göç hızının önlenmesi, küresel ekonominin gereklerinin yerine getirilmesi, ülkeler, bölgeler ve alt bölgeler arasındaki gelişmişlik farklılıklarının giderilmesi için çeşitli politikalar uygulanmaktadır. Bu nedenle ulusların ekonomik ve sosyal yapısını derinden etkileyen uluslararası göçmen hareketliliğinin nedenlerini araştırmak büyük önem taşımaktadır. Bu çalışma, OECD ülkelerine yönelik uluslararası göçü etkileyen faktörleri belirlemeyi amaçlamaktadır. Çalışma kapsamında sosyal, ekonomik ve çevresel yapıyı tanımlayan 79 değişkenden oluşan güncel bir veri seti oluşturulmuş, OECD ülkelerinde uluslararası göçü etkileyen faktörleri belirlemek için korelasyon ve regresyon analiz yöntemleri kullanılmıştır. Bu çalışma ile; uluslararası göç ile çeşitli ekonomik ve sosyal kalkınma değişkenleri arasında güçlü ilişkiler olduğu gözlemlenmiştir. Böylelikle uluslararası göç politikaları bağlamında tanımlayıcı ve istatistiksel olarak geçerli, güvenilir bir değerlendirme yapılması, tahminlerde bulunulması ve bilimsel literatüre katkı sağlanması öngörülmektedir.
