Rezumat: There are various changes occurred all over the world with the beginning of industrialization. Turkey is also affected from these changes, and migrations have started from rural areas to urban areas. Being the most significant reasons of social problems, internal migration not only causes irregular urbanization but also it leads the individuals to have identity problems. There is a strong relation between migration and identity concept. Immigrates also take their identities with them wherever they migrate, but at the end of the migration process, they have a dilemma about to which identity they belong. The individuals, who have identity and belonging problems, try to make them accepted in the new settlement, and they also not only want to protect and prolong their rural culture but also try to live the urban culture. There occurs a dual culture as a result of this situation. Generally, this dual culture problem is experienced by the first generation immigrates, and urban culture is adopted easily by the next generations. In this study, the problems, which are caused by the migration concept of passing from rural culture to urban culture on identities, are examined.
Cuvinte cheie: migration, urbanization, change of identity, identity problems, belonging
