The research data consisted of academic books, book chapters, and scientific articles on the subject, and the data obtained were descriptively evaluated in accordance with the aim and research problems of the study. In light of the findings, it was concluded that the sociological developments that created the conditions for the emergence of arabesque music began with rural-to-urban migration movements in the 1950s; that this process was driven by the deprivation experienced in villages as a result of agricultural mechanization; that arabesque culture emerged as a hybrid form of rural and urban cultures under the influence of the proliferation of informal settlements (gecekondus) created by rural-to-urban migrants to meet their housing needs in cities; that arabesque music culture became widespread through the influence of the spatial atmosphere created in cities by spaces associated with village culture; and that, with the changing perspective of Turkish politics in the 1980s, arabesque music culture was supported, enabling it to grow and become more widespread.
Özet
ÖZ Türkiye'de 1950’li yıllarda başlayan göç hareketleri, pek çok sosyolojik olayın altında yatan temel etkendir. 1950’lerde başlayan ve sonraki yıllarda giderek hızlanan bu kitlesel hareketlerin etkilediği önemli kültürel alanlardan biri de müzik alanıdır. Bu çalışma, kırdan kente göç ve müzik kültürüne etkilerini arabesk müzik örneği üzerinden incelemek amacıyla yapılmıştır. Bu bağlamda çalışma, nitel araştırma yaklaşımı çerçevesinde doküman incelemesine dayalı olarak yapılandırılmıştır. Araştırmanın verilerini konuya ilişkin akademik kitaplar, kitap bölümleri ve bilimsel makaleler oluşturmuş; elde edilen veriler araştırmanın amacı ve problemleri doğrultusunda betimsel olarak değerlendirilmiştir. Ulaşılan bulgular doğrultusunda; arabesk müziğin doğmasına ortam sağlayan sosyolojik gelişmelerin 1950’li yıllarda kırdan kente göç hareketleriyle başladığı, bu duruma tarımsal makineleşme nedeniyle köylerde meydana gelen yoksunluğun iticiliğinin neden olduğu, kırdan kente göç edenlerin kentlerde barınma ihtiyaçlarını gidermek üzere yarattıkları gecekondulaşmanın etkisi ile kır ve kent kültürlerinin melez bir türü olarak arabesk kültürün ortaya çıktığı, köy kültürüne ait mekânların kentlerde yarattığı mekânsal atmosferin etkisi ile arabesk müzik kültürünün yaygınlaştığı ve 1980’li yıllarda Türk Siyaseti’nin değişen perspektifi ile arabesk müzik kültürünün desteklenerek büyüyüp yaygınlaşmasının sağlandığı sonuçlarına ulaşılmıştır.
