MARGINALIZED MIGRATION, TRENDS AND POLICIES

Migration is a social phenomenon which was observed throughout history with changing characteristics over time, and which will continue to exist in the future. When the history and sustainability of this social fact are taken into consideration, it is obvious that migration is inherent in human nature. The continuous quests of human beings for better living conditions together with the desire to escape from political and social conflicts constitute the elements that trigger migration. Even though migration was constant throughout history, today it is one of the most important items on the international agenda. Therefore, the attempts to solve this social issue have never been so intense before. National states or international organizations try to solve the migration problem through regulations and restrictions that are put into effect within the framework of their sovereignty and policies. On the other hand, the person who intends to migrate opts to achieve his goal through informal channels, which will lead migration to marginalize. As a response to this, governments try to be more effective in the face of this problem. For these reasons, migration phenomenon continues to take the priority on the agendas. In this study, the transformation of migration which has become more complicated from formal to informal structure, its development, and migration policies will be examined within a general framework; and the reasons of this transformation will be investigated.
