Abstract:

 

This study takes form on the narratives of the immigrants who settled in Sakarya following the Forced Migration of 1989 from Bulgaria. It aims to tell the reasons for the immigrants’ decisions to move into Sakarya, whether they are satisfied with their lives, their thoughts about returning to Bulgaria, and their regrets and remorse. In addition, it essentially focuses on “in what ways” the immigrants perceive the locals and how they construct their own identities in accord with this perception. The immigrants construct their identities in contrast with the locals. This construct has made the immigrants in closer ties with their kins and friends in a shared common identity, and, in turn, these ties of familiarity have strengthened their ties with the city. On the other hand, the distance the immigrants put between themselves and the locals, especially when solidarity networks are absent, made their integration into the city somewhat more difficult.
