Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Constructions of Multiple Deservingness Frames towards Refugees in Everyday Work Life in Izmir(OXFORD UNIV PRESS, 2023) Selin Sivis; Ayselin Yildiz; Sivis, Selin; Yildiz, AyselinThis study focuses on the role of justification astrategies in the production and mobilization of multiple deservingness framings towards refugees in everyday work life. Drawing on in-depth interviews with Turkish employers in labour-intensive sectors in Izmir the article presents a city-centred evidence supported case which answers on the basis of which criteria Syrian refugee workers are deemed deserving and undeserving. It argues that the production of deservingness frames is not uniform and mutable across time and space thereby actors can engage in different justification strategies in similar situations since the constitution and mobilization of deservingness frames are context-dependent. This study further argues that Turkish employers' narratives towards Syrian refugee workers are shaped by not only economic interests but also unique features of historical and socio-cultural dynamics at the local level resulting in three distinct deservingness frames: established deservingness fragile deservingness and established undeservingness.Book Part Citation - Scopus: 8Corporate Social Responsibility in European Context(Bloomsbury Publishing Plc., 2013) Ayselin Gözde Yildiz; Gökay Özerim; Yildiz, Ayselin; Ozerim, Gokay[No abstract available]Article Citation - WoS: 8Citation - Scopus: 10Impact of the EU-Turkey Statement on Smugglers' Operations in the Aegean and Migrants' Decisions to Engage with Smugglers(WILEY, 2021) Ayselin Yildiz; Yildiz, AyselinThe article reviews how and to what extent the EU-Turkey Statement of 18 March 2016 has affected themodus operandiof migrant smugglers in the Aegean region and migrants' decisions to interact with them for irregular crossings from Turkey to Greece. It draws on field research including 46 in-depth interviews with migrants in Izmir Turkey a transit city and migrant smuggling hub. Based on analysis of these narratives and participant observation it argues that the Statement has generated changes concerning the smugglers' modalities and services while not affecting migrants' decisions to engage with them to reach Europe. Although the Statement aimed to decrease irregular migration disrupt smugglers' business models and open safe routes for migrants it has instead increased their vulnerability and exploitation to an extent. Accordingly the article reveals the paradoxical and controversial aspects of the Statement vis-a-vis the promises and consequences it generated in the field.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3Migrants as agents in placemaking: A socio-spatial analysis of Basmane area in Izmir- Turkiye(ELSEVIER, 2024) Ayselin Yildiz; Aylin Gurel; Meltem O. Gurel; Yildiz, Ayselin; Gurel, Meltem O.; Gurel, AylinThis article explores the place-making practices of displaced Syrian refugees living in Basmane area of Izmir's historic Konak district. By examining everyday spaces the spatio-material and socio-relational outcomes of Syrians' placemaking practices the study positions refugees as active agents of placemaking. Through empirical fieldwork it underscores the spatio-material consequences and socio-relational wellbeing outcomes of Syrians' placemaking practices illustrating how these are shaped and constrained by multi-scale configurations of Turkiye's refugee policies and the perceptions of the local population towards migrants.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 5Protracted displacement and housing systems in intermediary cities: the case of Syrians in Torbalı Türkiye(Routledge, 2025) Dolf J.H. te Lintelo; Ayselin Gözde Yildiz; Meltem Ö. Gürel; Selin Siviş; Perin Çün; Sadaf Sultan Khan; Robert Mull; Khan, Sadaf; Cun, Perin; te Lintelo, Dolf J. H.; Sivis, Selin; Yildiz, Ayselin; Gurel, Meltem O.; Mull, RobertThis article investigates the dynamics of complex housing systems within the context of large-scale protracted displacement in Turkey/Türkiye. It presents new empirical findings from a qualitative study conducted in Torbalı a rapidly growing intermediate city with a significant population of Syrian displaced people. Drawing on theoretical and conceptual insights from housing studies urban studies and migration studies the article assesses the ways in which displacement materialises in place through housing and contributes to city-making and urbanisation processes informally incrementally and in locally and historically contingent manners. We argue that the forms and dynamics of emerging housing exhibit both continuity but most markedly significant disjuncture from past housing trajectories in Torbalı. This challenges the implicit assumption of legal uniformity of self-builders common in incremental housing debates and suggests that the notion of incremental housing has limited relevance in contexts of protracted urban displacement. Furthermore findings underline the significance of legal dimensions in energising housing informalities, in grading socio-legal statuses of resident populations, in bounding displaced people’s mobilities, in demarcating labour flows, in moulding rental markets, and in directing the flows of housing materials. These in turn shape current and future urban built environments and mould the ways in which the urbanisation of refuge manifests. © 2025 Elsevier B.V.
