| Popis: | Turkey is a country known for the geographical mobility of its population and it is one of the most important events that Turkey has dramatically experienced in terms of demography within the past two decades. Although wars and conflicts create an insecure environment for human habitation which lead to internal displacement, another factor causing internal displacement can be practices and policies aiming to eliminate the insecure environment caused by separatist armed groups (PKK terrorist organization), as is the case in Turkey. Forced migrations in Turkey are not caused by conflicts between different ethnic groups or political dissolution as in the former Soviet Union or Yugoslavia. Forced migrations caused by the conflicts in south-eastern Turkey between Turkish security forces and rebel groups intensified internal migration to the west, which had already been going on for a long time in the eastern and south-eastern regions. Forced migrations affected especially the rural population and there was an accumulation of the rural population in cities within or outside the conflict area. Because the forced migrations were unplanned, migrants suffered from it both individually and as families and the socio-economic balance of the cities that the Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) sheltered in were disturbed. This article systematically questions on a provincial level the political, psycho-social and economic factors that led to the displacement of about a million people in Turkey, how these factors emerged (processes) and the areas of these forced migrations together with their spatial patterns. In this article, migration statistics and data on villages that lost all their populations, which were reflected in population censuses between the period when the conflicts first started (1985 census) and when the conflicts were relatively settled (2000 census), were used. In this way, both the qualitative and the quantitative characteristics of the internal displacement of the population in Turkey, the spatial pattern and the situation of the IDPs in the settlements they preferred to move to are all considered |
