Özet

With the development of technology, transportation, and communication opportunities with globalization, the circulation of people worldwide has increased. People who experience the level of development and economic, social, and cultural differences in other countries by leaving their own country have started to migrate from their countries for reasons such as education, tourism, employment, health, and family reunification. Migration is one of the most important phenomena that transcends the nation-state. It is a complex structure with political, economic, and socio-cultural aspects. Migration directly concerns and affects not only the individual but also the society from which he or she leaves. The versatility of immigration makes it necessary to establish a legal framework on the one hand and makes these legalizations difficult on the other. Another problem related to immigration is that the conditions under which a person who immigrates from their country to another country will be an immigrant and under what conditions they will leave the immigrant category are determined by the domestic policies of the countries. Therefore, it becomes difficult to define immigrants precisely. For this reason, there are differences in the national immigration policies of countries. This study aims to explain the link between international migration and globalization based on data from around the world and to reveal the policies developed by the European Union as an essential global power for international migration movements.
