This study aims to reveal the position, orientation, and impact of the relationship between refugees and architecture within the fields of Social Sciences, Arts, and Humanities by analyzing relevant literature. The research evaluates publications indexed in the Scopus database using the keyword "refugee." Based on the data obtained, the types of publications, their distribution over the years, and productivity by country and institution were examined. In addition, bibliographic network maps (co-authorship, co-occurrence of author keywords, citation analysis, and bibliographic coupling analysis) were generated using VOSviewer software to analyze the structure and relationships within the field. The findings indicate that themes such as temporary shelter solutions and humanitarian architecture are prominent, while issues like urban integration, social cohesion, and spatial justice are relatively underexplored.

Sosyal Bilimler ile Sanat ve Beşeri Bilimler Literatüründe Mülteci-Mimarlık İlişkisi: Bibliyometrik Bir Analiz

Öz

Bu çalışma, mülteciler ve mimarlık ilişkisinin Sosyal bilimler ile sanat ve beşeri bilimler alanında yapılan çalışmalar üzerinden yerini, yönelimini ve etkinliğinin literatürdeki yerini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Araştırmada, Scopus veri tabanında yer alan ve “refugee” anahtar kelimesiyle taranan yayınlar değerlendirilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler üzerinden yayınların türleri, yıllara göre dağılımı, ülke ve kurum bazlı üretkenlikleri irdelenmiş ayrıca VOSviewer yazılımı aracılığıyla bibliyografik ağ haritaları (ortak yazarlık, yazar anahtar kelimelerinin birlikte kullanımı, atıf analizleri, bibliyografik eşleşme analizi) oluşturularak alanın yapısı ve ilişkileri analiz edilmiştir. Elde edilen bulgular sonucunda geçici barınma çözümleri ve insani mimarlık temalarının öne çıktığı, kent içi entegrasyon, sosyal uyum ve mekânsal adalet gibi konuların ise görece eksik işlendiği tespit edilmiştir.
