This article examines the “Global Compact on Refugees” and the “Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration”, adopting a Neo-Gramscian International Political Economy perspective. Both products of the United Nations New York Declaration for Refugees and Migrants, these two non-binding agreements aim to restructure global governance of migration and refugees in accordance with neoliberal ideology. Following the global compacts, transnational capital has become one of the leading actors in the design and implementation of the international refugee protection regime. This study contends that these recent developments reveal the attempts of a transnational historic bloc to establish neoliberal hegemony in global governance of migration and refugee movements.

DÜZENSİZ GÖÇ VE MÜLTECİ HAREKETLERİNİN YÖNETİMİNDE NEOLİBERAL HEGEMONYA ARAYIŞLARI

Öz

Bu çalışma, Birleşmiş Milletler Mülteciler ve Göçmenler için New York Bildirisinin ardından uluslararası göç ve mülteci hareketlerinin yönetimine yönelik olarak hayata geçirilen “Güvenli, Sistemli ve Düzenli Göç için Küresel Mutabakat” ve “Mültecilere İlişkin Küresel Mutabakat” isimli iki çok taraflı düzenlemeyi Yeni- Gramşiyan (Neo-Gramscian) Uluslararası Politik Ekonomi kuramı ışığında değerlendirmektedir. Bu mutabakatlar, küresel göç yönetişimi ve uluslararası mülteci koruma rejimini neoliberal ideoloji ekseninde yeniden şekillendirmektedir. Küresel mutabakatların ardından ulusötesi sermaye, göçmen ve mültecilere yönelik küresel politikaların karar ve uygulama aşamalarında belirleyici rol oynayan aktörlerden biri haline gelmiştir. Çalışmada, göç ve mülteci hareketlerinin yönetimi alanında yaşanan dönüşümün küreselleşmenin bugünkü aşamasında ortaya çıkan ulusötesi bir tarihsel bloğun neoliberal hegemonya arayışı olarak değerlendirilmesinin doğru olacağı öne sürülmektedir.
