This article examines how the initial hospitality extended to asylum seekers by Turkey in response to the mass migration wave from the Middle East in the 2000s has gradually transformed into hostility. It also explores how restrictive asylum and migration regimes have contributed to the emergence of multi-dimensional precarity surrounding the lives of asylum seekers. The study focuses on the labor conditions of Syrian refugee women in Turkey, drawing on in-depth interviews conducted with 10 Syrian refugee women working in a textile workshop in Istanbul. The findings reveal that the prolonged stay of Syrian women workers in Turkey, moving beyond their guest status, has intensified their presence and precarity in economic and social contexts.

摘要

This article examines how the initial hospitality extended to asylum seekers by Turkey in response to the mass migration wave from the Middle East in the 2000s has gradually transformed into hostility. It also explores how restrictive asylum and migration regimes have contributed to the emergence of multi-dimensional precarity surrounding the lives of asylum seekers. The study focuses on the labor conditions of Syrian refugee women in Turkey, drawing on in-depth interviews conducted with 10 Syrian refugee women working in a textile workshop in Istanbul. The findings reveal that the prolonged stay of Syrian women workers in Turkey, moving beyond their guest status, has intensified their presence and precarity in economic and social contexts.
