Avrupa Birliği’nin Dışsallaştırılmış Sınırları: Emperyal Bir Refleks mi?

Bu çalışma Avrupa Birliği tarafından göç yönetişimde, özellikle sınır yönetimi ve sığınma politikalarında, artarak takip edilmekte olan dışsallaştırma eğilimini incelemektedir. Ana tartışma bahsedilen bu dışsallaştırma eğiliminin emperyal bir refleks olarak görülüp görülemeyeceği üzerinedir. Makale, AB’nin emperyal özellikleri ve politikaları ile ilgili argümanların incelenmesi ile başlar. Bu incelemeyi AB’nin göç politikalarının kısa bir tarihi ve bu politikaların emperyal özellikleri takip etmektedir. Son olarak, AB’nin göç yönetişimindeki dışsallaştırma eğilimi farklı örnekleri verilerek tartışılmaktadır. Bu örnekler ile AB’nin dışsallaştırma eğiliminin emperyal bir refleks olarak görülebileceği ileri sürülmektedir. Bu durum AB’nin, en azından sınırlarını yönetirken, emperyal özellikler gösterdiğini kanıtlamaktadır

EXTERNALIZED BORDERS OF THE EU: AN IMPERIAL REFLEX?

This work examines the increasing trend of externalization followed by the European Union in its migration governance, specifically its border management and asylum policies. The main discussion revolves around whether this externalization trend could be an imperial reflex by the EU or not. The paper starts with examining the arguments related to the EU’s imperial characteristics and policies. This is followed by a brief history of the migration policies of the Union and the imperial characteristics of these policies. Finally, the externalization trend is discussed with examples which show that externalization of migration governance by the EU could be regarded as an imperial reflex. Therefore, this is an evidence of the EU’s imperial character, at least when it comes to the management of its borders.
