Abstract

Most of the Gagauz population live in Bucak region
in the South of Republic of Moldova. Gagauz people’s language has the closest
accent to Turkish language spoken in Turkey. 
The Gagauz gained their autonomy September 23 in 1993.Their population
covers %4 of the total population of Moldova. Despite the fact that The Gagauz
is a small society in the Balkans, Turkey attaches high importance to them. The
connection between Gagauz people and Turkey reaches to the first years of
Turkish Republic. Ataturk met the needs of The Gagauz and supported them in
those years. In this study political statute, ethnic identity, economic
situation and the geographical position of Gagauz people have been examined.
The Gagauz that had not known well by Turks until the 1990s has been researched
in details. Besides it has been mentioned that Gagauz people bridge The
Republic of Moldova and Turkey both culturally and commercially as well as
building amity between two nations.

GAGAVUZ TÜRKLERİNİN SİYASİ VE EKONOMİK YAPISI

Year 2016, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 60 - 71, 27.12.2016

Abstract

Gagavuz Türklerinin büyük çoğunluğu Moldova
Cumhuriyeti’nin güneyinde Bucak bölgesinde yaşamaktadır. Gagavuzların konuştuğu
dil Türkiye Türkçesine en yakın şivedir. 23 Aralık 1993 yılında özerkliğe
kavuşmuştur. Moldova Cumhuriyeti Nüfusunun yüzde 4’ ünü oluşturmaktadır.
Balkanlarda küçük topluluk olsa da Türkiye için büyük önem arz etmektedir.
Türkiye’nin Gagavuz Türkleri ile olan irtibatı Cumhuriyetin ilk yıllarına
dayanmaktadır. Atatürk Gagavuz Türklerine gereken önem ve desteği sağlamıştır. Bu
çalışmada Gagavuz Türklerinin yaşadığı coğrafya, etnik kimliği, ekonomisi ve
politik statüsü incelenmiştir. 1990’lı yıllara kadar Türkiye toplumu tarafından
pek fazla bilinmeyen Gagavuz Türkleri detaylı bir şekilde araştırılmıştır. Yine
Gagavuzların Türkiye ile Moldova Cumhuriyeti arasında dostluk, kültürel ve
ticari alanlarda bir köprü vazifesi üstlendiği konularına değinilmiştir.
