TÜRKİYE’NİN KALKINMA PLANLARINDA GÖÇ VE İNSAN HAREKETLİLİKLERİ: BİRİNCİ (1963-1967) VE İKİNCİ KALKINMA (1967-1972) PLANLARI ÜZERİNE BİR DEĞERLENDİRME

Abstract

The relationship between migration, mobility and development is one of the topics discussed in social sciences for many years. Over the years, the relationship between the two phenomena has sometimes been evaluated as "optimistic" and sometimes "pessimistically". This study aims to monitor migration and human movements through the development plans prepared within the framework of the planned economic shift that Turkey started in the 1960s. Determining the relationship between the two phenomena is important in terms of understanding the social mobilities that Turkey has experienced in the later periods and today. Tracing migration and human mobility within the development plans prepared in Turkey aimed not only to determine the reactions to the phenomenon of migration but also to clarify how mobility phenomena are viewed in the development initiatives. The concepts of migration and human movements in Turkey's First (1963-1967) and Second (1967-1972) Development Plan reports were analyzed using qualitative methods in this study. As a result of the analysis, four thematic areas were reached; concerns on population growth, increasing internal migration from rural to urban areas, international labour force export as a surplus of labour supply, and the realization of tourism potential.
 
 The attempt to read the migration and human movements in Turkey of the 1960s is meaningful in terms of understanding what has changed and continued over the past 60 years. Among the modernization concerns of the understanding of military tutelage, Turkey's internal migration and demography on the one hand, and the policies it has developed for out-migration on the other hand and the tourist movements that are likely to turn to Turkey are valuable in terms of understanding the current picture of Turkey.
