MÜLTECİ KRİZİ: MÜLTECİLERİN HUKUKİ VE SOSYAL STATÜLERİ İLE ULUSAL ÇIKARLAR İLİŞKİSİ BAĞLAMINDA BİR DEĞERLENDİRME.

Refugees are the main actors of a fundamental issue in which many states are now in a dilemma: On the one hand welfare of citizens and national interests, on the other hand, there is help to people who take refuge in the borders of other countries for compelling reasons such as war and famine, and to recognize their refugee status. One of the main factors shaping the migration policies of states is their position towards this critical dilemma. Of course, it should not be concluded that the countries dealing with the refugee issue can only act on two attitudes (the unconditional admission of refugees or the complete rejection of refugee status). There are also countries that try to manage the support process with economic assistance, although they accept refugees very limited numbers at their borders. What we mean here is that governments shape refugee policies around two basic discourse forms. In the face of the refugee issue, the form of discourse argues that states should ensure the welfare of their citizens or keep the current level of welfare as a priority, focuses on the economic, social and cultural problems that migrants and refugees can create. If the situation of refugees is considered as a struggle to survive and it is accepted that these people have to seek asylum in order to survive, it will be easier to recognize their social and legal status. Throughout our study, we will focus on the manifestations of these two forms of discourse and try to evaluate the issue of refugee being in the present age in terms of host society and displaced people.
