Abstract (EN)
The thesis aims to analyze the personal narratives and life stories of members of the Kazakh community who first migrated from East Turkestan to India and then settled permanently in Turkey in 1953. The research, which examines the migration, memory and identity structures of Kazakhs living in Istanbul (Zeytinburnu, Bağcılar) and Manisa (Salihli), examines the migration experiences of Kazakhs based on data collected through the oral history method. The research was conducted with members of three generations of the Kazakh community living in two regions of Turkey. It shows how and in what direction Kazakhs' sense of identity, homeland, and belonging has been shaped since their resettlement in Turkey. Keywords: Belonging, East Turkestan, Homeland, Identity, Kazakh, Memory, Migration.
