Bu çalışma, Hollanda’daki Türkiye kökenli birinci ve
ikinci kuşak göçmenlere odaklanarak; ekonomik eşitsizliklerin, çokkültürlü
toplumlardaki azınlık gruplarının aidiyet hislerini nasıl etkilediğini incelemektedir.
Bu araştırma, Türkiye kökenli göçmenlerin Hollanda toplumuna aidiyetlerinin
farklı faktörlerden farklı şekillerde etkilendiği sonucuna ulaşmıştır. Birinci
kuşak Türkiye kökenli göçmenler kültürel ayrımcılık, ötekileştirme ve ekonomik
yoksunluk konularındaki rahatsızlıklarını ifade etmişlerdir. İkinci kuşak
Türkiye kökenli göçmenler ise Hollanda toplumunda daha prestijli işlere sahip
olma konusundaki kısıtlamalardan dolayı görece yoksunluk hissi yaşamaktadırlar.
Birinci kuşağın sorunlarını kültürel ayrımcılık ve yoksunluk özetlerken; ikinci
kuşağın sorunlarını görece yoksunluk yaklaşımı ifade etmektedir. Araştırma
bulguları Hollanda’daki Türkiye kökenli 37 göçmenle Amsterdam, Rotterdam ve
Maastricht şehirlerinde Ocak-Nisan 2011 tarihleri arası yapılan derinlemesine
görüşmelere dayanmaktadır.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Hollanda, Türkiye kökenli göçmenler, grup kimliği, mağduriyet, ekonomik ayrımcılık

The Dilemma of Integrated: Expectations of Second Generation Immi-grants from Turkey in the Netherlands

Öz

This article examines the role of economic
inequalities in the minority groups’ belonging practices in the multicultural
societies. This investigation is conducted in the context of the Netherlands
with specific focus on the first and second-generation immigrants from Turkey.
This study found out that different factors affect Turkish immigrants’
belonging practices differently. While the first generation immigrants complain
about cultural discrimination, marginalization and economic deprivation, second
generation immigrants complain more about relative deprivation and
discrimination in terms of their opportunities to access more prestigious
positions in Dutch society and more elite professions. While grievance theory
presents a better tool to understand the plight of second generation,
explanations related to cultural discrimination and deprivation are more useful
for understanding the concerns of the first generation Turkish immigrants.  The analysis is based on in-depth interviews
in cities of Amsterdam, Maastricht and Rotterdam with 37 immigrants from Turkey
in between January to April 2011.
