Socioeconomic Determinants Of Internal Migration: A Comparative Analysis In Seven Cities In Turkey

The purpose of this thesis is to explore whether or not there exists a difference
between the old and new migrants who moved to Istanbul, Ankara, Bursa, Izmir,
Gaziantep, Erzurum and Sanliurfa provinces pre and post 1990, and the
disadvantaged residents born in the urban areas of these provinces in terms of
education, health and employment.
To attain this aim, a theoretical framework, through which main features of the
concept of disadvantageous were discussed.The overview of the literature, is
based on these three dimensions of being disadvantaged, which are education,
health and employment by using socio-economical characteristics as the
interpretive tools. Therefore, the definition of disadvantageous centered on the
notion of migration is accepted as a background of the study. In this respect,
disadvantaged people are accepted as a group that experiences a higher risk of
poverty and social exclusion than the general population.
