Hur påverkas ett värdland av flyktingströmmar : En fallstudie om den syriska flyktingströmmens påverkan på det turkiska samhället

As of 2013, around 51 million people were living on the run, classified as refugees. One of the reasons the number has increased so much during the last years can be explained by the war in Syria. The aim of following study is to evaluate the impact the Syrian refugee flow has had on the Turkish society up until today, seeing the consequences of economic, political and social impact made on the Turkish society. Due to these chosen aspects the study will be concentrated only on the changes in the Turkish society brought about accordance with economic, political and social effects. What is desirable is to achieve greater understanding of the positive and negative aspects of refugee flows on host countries. Building on this, the study will bring about a discussion on how to improve a study like this in the future. The following paper implies that conflict arises when the host country do not show acceptance of the refugees, and to not create conflicts, countries should welcome the refugees with open arms as Emanuel Mensah Tay indicates.
