Abstract

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the migrant policies implemented in Turkey and the phenomenon of migrant entrepreneurship from the perspective of these entrepreneurs. The literature on entrepreneurship mostly addresses the phenomenon of immigrant entrepreneurship with the understanding that “the law does not concern itself with trivial matters,” the “de minimis non curat lex” approach, and the existing policies in the countries where immigrants settle, and the legal regulations regarding the entrepreneurship of minorities are often overlooked. In this study, semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted with 20 immigrant entrepreneurs operating in the Southeast Anatolia region, which has been heavily affected by Syrian migration. Content analysis revealed that participants defined migrant entrepreneurship in terms of family livelihood, security, opportunity, and independence, suggesting that policymakers should remove travel restrictions imposed on migrant entrepreneurs and ease bureaucratic hurdles, such as work permits and licenses. This study is expected to contribute to the literature on the definition of the concept of migrant entrepreneurship, the challenges encountered in specific policies, and potential solutions.

Özet

Bu araştırmanın temel amacı, Türkiye’de uygulanan göçmen politikaları ve göçmen girişimciliği olgusunu bu girişimcilerin bakış açısından değerlendirmektir. Girişimcilikle ilgili literatür göçmen girişimciliği olgusunu çoğunlukla “kanun önemsiz şeylerle ilgilenmez” anlayışıyla, “de minimis non curat lex” yaklaşımıyla ele almakta, göçmenlerin yerleştikleri ülkelerdeki mevcut politikalar ve azınlıkların girişimciliğine dair yasal düzenlemeler çoğu zaman göz ardı edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada Suriyeli göçünün yoğun etkilerinin görüldüğü Güneydoğu Anadolu bölgesinde faaliyetlerini devam ettiren 20 göçmen girişimci ile yarı yapılandırılmış derinlemesine görüşmeler gerçekleştirilmiştir. İçerik analizi yöntemiyle yapılan analizlerde, katılımcıların, göçmen girişimciliği olgusunu aile geçimi, güvenlik, fırsat ve bağımsızlık ekseninde tanımladıkları ve politika yapıcılara girişimcilik süreçlerine dair göçmen girişimcilere uygulanan seyahat engelinin kaldırılması, çalışma izni ve ruhsat gibi bürokratik zorlukların kolaylaştırılmasına yönelik öneriler verdiklerini açığa çıkarmaktadır. Bu çalışmanın göçmen girişimciliği kavramının tanımlanması, politikalar özelinde karşılaşılan zorluklar ve potansiyel çözüm yollarına dair literatüre katkı sunacağı düşünülmektedir.
