The situation of Turkish people living in Germany in terms of crimmigration

Migration, which has existed since the first years of human history, partially or completely changes the lives of many people, enabling them to live a different life. This situation has benefits and harms for both the immigrant and the host country. One of the harms that should be focused on most is undoubtedly the fact that immigrants may commit rimes and affect the people of the country they visit. The deepest dimension of the concept of crimmigration is the effects of this concept and whether the harms caused by immigrants outweigh the benefits they bring. This study was conducted to reveal how much Turkish immigrants living in Germany affect the general crime rates and the debate will focus on whether the culprit for crime rates is the lack of integration among Turks or the attitude of Germans towards immigrants. While preparing the thesis, research was conducted on the concepts of immigration and crime, and the current situation of Turks in Germany and the situation of Turks who went to Germany not only as immigrants but also as refugees in recent years were taken into consideration. It was conducted with 18 Turkish immigrants living in Germany using semi-structured interviews as the method. In order to reveal the context between immigration and crime, Turkish immigrants were asked questions about Germany and analysis was made taking into account their opinions. The study was concluded by forming an opinion and insight about the responsible party regarding immigration and crime.
