2011’den bu yana Suriye’de süren iç savaşın tetiklediği insan hareketleri sonucunda Türkiye-Suriye zorunlu göç sistemi uluslararası mülteci rejiminin en önemli unsuru oldu. 2015’ten itibaren Suriye en fazla mülteci veren konumuna gelirken, Türkiye en fazla mülteci ağırlayan ülke konumuna yükseldi. Bu gelişmenin önemli sonuçlarından biri, yerli halk ile mülteciler gibi farklı gruplar arasındaki ilişkilerin anlaşılması bakımından Türkiye’nin sosyal laboratuvara dönüşmesidir. Bu bağlamda çalışma, Türkiye’de yerli halkın Suriyeli göçmenlerden tehdit algılarının göçmenlere yardım davranışına etkilerini incelemektedir. Bu incelemede spesifik olarak, maddi tehditler grubundaki ekonomik tehdit, iş tehdidi ve güvenlik tehdit algıları ile sembolik tehditler grubundaki kültürel tehdit algısının yerli halkın formel ve informel yardım etme eğilimlerine etkileri tahmin edilmiştir. Tahmin sonuçları, güvenlik tehdidi ile kültürel tehdidin iki yardım türünü olumsuz etkilediğini işaret etmektedir. Bu duruma karşıt, ekonomi alanındaki tehditler ile yardım davranışları arasında herhangi bir bağ saptanmamıştır. Ayrıca, güvenlik tehdidi ile kültürel tehdidin negatif etkileri hem düşük eğitimli hem yüksek eğitimli yerli halk gruplarında gözlenmiştir.

Threat Perceptions and Charitable Giving to Syrians: Findings from Turkey

Öz

Immigrant flows triggered by the civil war in Syria have rendered the Turkey-Syria forced migration system the most important component of the international refugee regime. While Syria has become the top immigrant sending country since 2015, Turkey is currently the country hosting the largest number of refugees. One of the major consequences of this development is that Turkey has become a social laboratory in terms of understanding the relations between different groups such as natives and migrants. In this context, the study examines the effects of threat perceptions from Syrian migrants on the natives’ charitable giving behavior towards the refugees. The results show that security and cultural threat perceptions from Syrians negatively affect both formal and informal giving. The analysis also detected the negative effects of security and cultural threat perceptions in the groups of both low-educated and high-educated natives.
