Pandemi (COVID-19) ve İçeridekilerin Güvenliği: Avrupa Birliği’nin Geleneksel Sınır Politikalarına Yeni Yaklaşımı

Öz

Sınırlar yalnızca toprakların nerede başlayıp nerede bittiğini belirlemez, aynı zamanda giriş ve çıkışları düzenlerken içeridekilerle dışarıdakileri de tanımlar. Geçtiğimiz yüzyıl, güvenlik ve sınır sorunlarının dönüşümü açısından oldukça önemlidir. Bununla birlikte son yirmi yılda ortaya çıkan yeni gelişmeler, sert değişimleri de beraberinde getirmiştir. Suriye’de devam eden iç savaştan kaynaklanan göç krizinin ardından başta AB olmak üzere dünyanın karşılaştığı en büyük zorluk, sınır güvenliği konusunu daha önce hiç akla hiç gelmeyen yeni bir boyuta taşıyan COVID-19 salgını olmuştur. Bugünün sınır güvenliği politikaları vatandaşları mikroorganizmalardan, virüslerden ve taşıyıcılardan korumak üzerine inşa edilmiş durumdadır ve bu politikaların hem merkezinde hem de dışında ise “ötekiler” bulunmaktadır.

RISE OF THE PANDEMIC (COVID-19) AND SECURITY OF THE INSIDERS: A NEW CHALLENGE FOR TRADITIONAL BORDER POLICIES IN THE EU

Abstract

Borders not only determine where the territories start and end; but also determine the insiders and the outsiders while regulating entrances and exits. Last century was of great importance in transformation of security and border issues. However, for two decades, sharp changes started to turn up due to evolving challenges that we face. After migration crisis, arising from the ongoing civil war in Syria, the biggest challenge the world, notably the EU, has faced is the COVID-19 pandemic which carried the border security issue to a new dimension that never came to mind. Today’s border security policies are built on protecting citizens from microorganisms, viruses and carriers and it seems that “others” will continue to be both at the centre and out of these policies.
