Dağılmış Aileler: Uygulamada ve Hukuk Sisteminde Mülteci Ailelerin Birleşmesinin Önündeki Engeller

Uluslararası sözleşmeler uyarınca evlenme ve aile kurma hakkı insan hakları arasında yer almakta ve uluslararası güvence altına alınmaktadır. Ancak, uluslararası hukuk ve sözleşmeler 3. ülke vatandaşlarının ülkelerine girişlerine onay vermeleri noktasında devletlere mutlak egemenlik tanımıştır. Devletler de, aile birleşimi noktasında öne sürdüğü bazı gerekçelere dayanarak sıkı şartlara bağlanmıştır. Aile birleşimi henüz mutlak bir hak olarak güvence altına alınmayarak devletlerin takdir yetkisine bırakılmıştır. Zaten, yasal olarak zor ve meşakkatli bir süreç olan aile birleşiminin faturası değişik nedenlerle evini, yuvasını, vatanını terk etmek zorunda kalmış mültecilere çok daha ağır kesilmektedir. Varış noktasına geldiklerinde en azından ailelerini yeniden bir araya getirerek yeni hayatlarında bir arada olmak isteyen mültecileri uygulanan hem yasal hem de bürokratik engeller beklemektedir.

DISPERSED FAMILIES: LEGAL AND PRACTICAL BARRIERS TO REFUGEE FAMILY REUNIFICATION

The right to marry and found a family is integral to human rights pursuant to international conventions and therefore, is assured at an international level. However, the international law and international conventions further ensure that any state has the absolute sovereignty whether or not to admit 3rd country nationals within their borders, by virtue of which states stipulate strict conditions for such admissions in the case of family reunification; that is, family reunification is not considered an absolute right, and is at the sole discretion of states. As a consequence, family reunification, which is a legally difficult and arduous procedure, puts much heavier burden on refugees, having or to have left their families and homelands due to various causes. At their destination, in full force, both bureaucratic and legal barriers await refugees who merely intend to reunite with their families and be together in a new phase of their life.
