Özet:

This thesis analyses the transformation of the refugee system in the neoliberal period. Departing from the idea that the fundamental of the modern refugee system has a close relation to capitalist economic structure both politically and economically, the reasoning entails refugee system to transform in accordance to transformation in the political and economic conjuncture. This thesis studies refugee related policies specific to neoliberal period to understand the organic relation between the refugee system and neoliberalism. In this regard this thesis used the ‘externalization’ concept as the unique substance of the refugee policies in the neoliberal era. Hence the thesis investigates to identify and trace the development of the externalization policies to establish an international neoliberal refugee system framework. In this regard the thesis traced externalization process on the four different areas concerning policies regarding the sustainability, accessibility, determination procedure and legal structure. Established international framework will be used as basis to identify the development and harmonization process of the Turkish refugee system. The integration of the Turkish refugee system to European framework has been crucial to identify if Turkey has been part of the international externalization framework. Both the international and Turkish framework will be tested with the Afghan refugee crisis in Turkey. Analysis of the Afghan refugee crisis will provide an answer to the question whether there is an existence of an externalization of the responsibility process. Furthermore if there is such a process, thesis will also provide how externalization in practice occurs in the Turkish and international framework.
