In this study, how the developing ethic economy in London is reflected in the social and cultural lives of people from Turkey, how their ethnic and denominational roots affect the ethnic economy shall be examined. The data set of the study consists of surveys made with 213 migrants and semi-structured interviews with 60 migrants.
