Asylum and Integration Processes of Syrian Refugees in Germany

Öz

Due to increasing global inequality, political instability and other reasons, international migration movements, which are mostly composed of immigrants and refugees, have become one of the main topics of today's social sciences. This article examines Syrian refugees who have taken refuge in Germany due to the ongoing civil war in Syria since 2011. In this context, I examine topics such as asylum application, country preferences, asylums process stages, settlement steps firstly. Then, I analyze integration processes of Syrians with German society, language-learning skills, labor-force participation, social and cultural changes, family reunifications and status of women. Finally, I discuss the possibilities and tendencies of Syrians for remaining permanent in Germany. The arguments are made within the context of the globally displaced population and flows of immigrants and refugees around the world. Analyses made in the article are based on the field study conducted by the author on Syrian refugees in Germany.

Almanya’daki Suriyeli Mültecilerin İltica Ve Uyum Süreçleri

Öz

Artan küresel eşitsizlik, siyasi istikrarsızlar ve diğer sebeplere bağlı olarak, göçmen ve mültecilerin yoğunlukla oluşturduğu uluslararası göç hareketleri günümüz sosyal bilimlerin başlıca konularından biri haline gelmiştir. Bu makale ülkelerinde 2011’den bu yana devam eden şiddetli iç savaş sebebiyle Almanya’ya sığınmış Suriyeli mültecileri incelenmektedir. Bu bağlamda, sığınma başvuruları süreçleri, ülke tercihleri, yerleşme gibi iltica süreci aşamaları ilk olarak irdelenmektedir. Ardından, Alman toplumuna uyum süreçleri, dil öğrenim becerileri, işgücüne katılımları, sosyal ve kültürel değişmeleri, aile birleşimleri, kadının statüsü konuları analiz edilmektedir. Son olarak, Suriyelilerin Almanya’da kalıcılaşma ihtimalleri ve eğilimleri tartışılmaktadır. Tartışmalar küresel yerinden edilmiş nüfus olgusu ve mülteci akını gibi üst başlıklar bağlamında yapılmaktadır. Makalede yapılan tartışmalar yazar tarafından Suriyeli mülteciler üzerine Almanya’da gerçekleştirilen saha çalışmasına dayanmaktadır.
