Journal Title: The Journal of International Social Research - Year 2016, Vol 9, Issue 44
Abstract
Today, many of the refugees live in urban areas, that is why the discussions about refugees are focused on the “urban refugees” phenomenon. This description does not only refer to the refugees’ settlement in terms of location, but also lays emphasis on their togetherness/communion with the “settled”. This study is conducted in İstiklal Street, Şahinbey District in Gaziantep, which is one the cities that makes the “urban refugees” phenomenon visible and is populated mostly by Syrian refugees. 10 Turkish citizens who receive poor relief were interviewed within the scope of field study. In this study, which looks at the expectations of life/future with the poor foreigner/refugee with the eyes of the poor settled, the risks which come along with the lack of civil rights and refugee rights, and the states of vulnerability and helplessness in such cities have been questioned.
