Acknowledgements During the years it took me to finish this project, I have accumulated numerous intellectual and personal debts. No part of this project would have been possible without the support and guidance I received from my supervisor, Gary P. Freeman. It has been a privilege to work with such an influential yet humble scholar. I would like to extend my heartfelt gratitude to my co-supervisor, Terri E. Givens, whose academic and administrative accomplishments I admire. I have been a fortunate beneficiary of her insight, knowledge, and optimism throughout my time in Austin. My committee members Robert G. Moser and Raúl L. Madrid provided excellent theoretical and methodological feedback and played an instrumental role in helping me improve my research. Special thanks are in order to my external committee member Sultan Tepe. Since the day I moved to the United States, she has been a constant source of encouragement, mentorship, and wisdom. She believed so much in me and in this project and always pushed me to see the bigger picture. I am forever indebted to her. I also would like to extend my thanks to Catherine Boone, Shannon Bow O’Brien, Henry Dietz, and David L. Leal for helping me to develop as a scholar and teacher. I would be remiss if I did not acknowledge the financial and institutional support that enabled me to complete this project. I have drawn sustenance from the Department of Government and the Center for European Studies at the University of Texas at Austin, the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Oxford Center for Islamic Studies. I have also benefited from grants awarded by the European Science Foundation and the Consortium on Qualitative Research Methods. I thank the Journal of Muslim Minority v Affairs, in which some of the material in this dissertation has been published, for granting copyright permission. My sincere appreciation also goes to the staff members of the Department of Government, Annette Park, Stuart Tendler, and Carolina Villanueva, for their administrative and technical support. Over the course of my fieldwork in France and Germany, Sciences Po-Paris and the Berlin Social Science Center (WZB) served as my intellectual homes. I thank Catherine Wihtol de Wenden of Sciences Po-Paris and Ruud Koopmans of the WZB for welcoming me as a visiting scholar and for opening doors for me. In France, conversations with Samim Akgönül, Bayram Balcı, Faruk Bilici, Hamit Bozarslan, Riva Kastoryano, and Stéphane de Tapia challenged me to think in new ways. Thanks to my friends Gülce and Bilgehan, my sojourn in Paris turned into an unforgettable life experience. In Germany, I benefited from stimulating discussions with Dirk Halm, Gerdien Jonker, Werner Schiffauer, Riem Spielhaus, Dietrich Thränhardt, and Gökçe Yurdakul. My friends Anna, Armin, Aslı, and Doğa made Berlin a warm home for me. In Turkey, I had the chance to exchange ideas with Ayhan Kaya, Talip Küçükcan, Necdet Subaşı, and Elisabeth Özdalga. I would like to particularly thank Ahmet Yükleyen for helping me to clarify my ideas during the initial stages of my research. I am grateful to Adil Tütüncü and his family for facilitating my fieldwork in Ankara. I also owe a lot to all my interviewees in France, Germany, and Turkey, who shared their knowledge and thoughts with me. My stay at the Oxford Center for Islamic Studies gave me the opportunity to expedite the writing process. I am grateful to Kevin Fogg, George Malagaris, and Farhan Nizami for their hospitality. My friends Aysel, Fouzia, and Kasia accompanied me in vi dinners, concerts, and long walks in London and Oxford. I would like to extend my thanks to Yasir Suleiman of the Cambridge Center for Islamic Studies for allowing me to present my research to a group of young scholars and for inviting me to contribute to an edited volume. Parts of my concluding chapter are based on a book chapter published in this edited volume. I am also indebted to many colleagues and friends, who gave me useful insights and perspectives. In particular, I thank Adam, Bill, Chang, Danilo, Emma, Hüseyin, Hyobin, Jessica, John, Kai-Ping, Kyle, Luke, Matt, Ömer, Pete, Rachel, Randy, Rodolfo, Ryan, Sophia, and Victoria. My hermana Mine never hesitated to be there whenever I needed her. My friends outside of graduate school, Beliz, Elif, Emine, and Miray, also deserve special mention. I feel the deepest gratitude of all to my wonderful family. Being born into such a loving family is the best luck of my life. I particularly thank my parents Ayşe and Necati for always being by my side. I thank my siblings Tunca, Günça, and Güven for making me feel so strong and supported in life. Our funny phone, Facebook, and Whatsapp conversations almost always make me start my day with a good laugh. I also would like to extend my thanks to Ada, Derin, Erhan, Muharrem, Irmak, and Rıfat for joining our family and for making our life more fulfilling. Finally, I thank Felix for being the best partner I could ever ask for. His compassion, patience, and love never cease to amaze me.

Freeman Co-Supervisor: Terri E. Givens Abstract: This dissertation analyzes why sending states develop specific diaspora outreach policies and how those policies affect the political participation of immigrant organization leaders in host countries. I theorize and empirically test the propositions that diaspora outreach policies are a growing and significant preoccupation of sending states and that they play a pivotal role in motivating immigrant leaders to participate in host state politics. I argue that sending states influence immigrant political participation through the “diaspora empowerment” mechanism, which reshapes immigrant organizations leaders’ identification and capabilities. More specifically, sending states instill a sense of self-efficacy, collective identity, and group consciousness in the leaders of immigrant organizations and provide them with technical, financial, and legal support. I test my hypotheses through an extensive analysis of Turkey’s relations with expatriate umbrella organizations operating in France and Germany, two countries that are the viii leading recipients of Turkish immigrants in Western Europe. My analysis shows that origin states may apply a multi-tiered diaspora policy based on the size and the loyalty of immigrant organizations. This differential treatment affects the frequency and form of immigrant political activism oriented toward host states. I conclude that the leaders of immigrant organizations are more likely to be receptive to the sending state’s diaspora policies if they hold strong grievances toward their host state. Greater grievances lead to greater receptivity because they encourage immigrant leaders to identify with the sending state rather than the host state. My findings draw from secondary literature, content analysis of organizational and governmental reports, semi-structured in-depth interviews, participant observation, and survey research. ix Table of Contents List of Tables ............................................................................................................... xii List of Figures ............................................................................................................. xiii Chapter One: Introduction .......................................................................................... 1 The Argument in Brief ................................................................................................ 5 Conceptualization and Operationalization ................................................................ 11 Research Design ........................................................................................................ 16 The Plan of the Study ................................................................................................ 23 Chapter Two: Theory ................................................................................................ 25 The Limits of Alternative Explanations .................................................................... 26 Turning to Sending States: Transnationalism and Diaspora Policies ....................... 37 New Approaches to Immigrant Political Participation ............................................. 41 A Theory of Diaspora Empowerment ....................................................................... 44 Conclusion ...............................................................................................................

  • The Turkish Diaspora in Europe Integration, Migration, and Politics
    GETTY GEBERT IMAGES/ANDREAS The Turkish Diaspora in Europe Integration, Migration, and Politics By Max Hoffman, Alan Makovsky, and Michael Werz December 2020 WWW.AMERICANPROGRESS.ORG Contents 1 Introduction and summary 4 Key findings 9 Detailed findings and country analyses 34 Conclusion 37 About the authors and acknowledgments 38 Appendix: Citizenship laws and migration history in brief 44 Endnotes Introduction and summary More than 5 million people of Turkish descent live in Europe outside Turkey itself, a human connection that has bound Turkey and the wider European community together since large-scale migration began in the 1960s.1 The questions of immigra- tion, citizenship, integration, assimilation, and social exchange sparked by this migra- tion and the establishment of permanent Turkish diaspora communities in Europe have long been politically sensitive. Conservative and far-right parties in Europe have seized upon issues of migration and cultural diversity, often engaging in fearmonger- ing about immigrant communities and playing upon some Europeans’ anxiety about rapid demographic change. Relations between the European Union—as well as many of its constituent member states—and Turkey have deteriorated dramatically in recent years. And since 2014, Turks abroad, in Europe and elsewhere around the world, have been able to vote in Turkish elections, leading to active campaigning by some Turkish leaders in European countries. For these and several other reasons, political and aca- demic interest in the Turkish diaspora and its interactions

During the period under review, the most significant progress in prosecuting Nazi war criminals has been made in Germany. This is clearly the result of the dramatic change instituted several years ago vis-à-vis suspected Holocaust perpetrators who served in death camps or Einsatzgruppen, who can now be successfully convicted of accessory to murder based on service alone. Previously, prosecutors had to be able to prove that a suspect had committed a specific crime against a specific victim and that the crime had been motivated by racial hatred to be able to bring a case to court.

  • Turkmen of Iraq
    Turkmen of Iraq By Mofak Salman Kerkuklu 1 Mofak Salman Kerkuklu Turkmen of Iraq Dublin –Ireland- 2007 2 The Author Mofak Salman Kerkuklu graduated in England with a BSc Honours in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Oxford Brookes University and completed MSc’s in both Medical Electronic and Physics at London University and a MSc in Computing Science and Information Technology at South Bank University. He is also a qualified Charter Engineer from the Institution of Engineers of Ireland. Mr. Mofak Salman is an author of a book “ Brief History of Iraqi Turkmen”. He is the Turkmeneli Party representative for both Republic of Ireland and the United Kingdom. He has written a large number of articles that were published in various newspapers. 3 Purpose and Scope This book was written with two clear objectives. Firstly, to make an assessment of the current position of Turkmen in Iraq, and secondly, to draw the world’s attention to the situation of the Turkmen. This book would not have been written without the support of Turkmen all over the world. I wish to reveal to the world the political situation and suffering of the Iraqi Turkmen under the Iraqi regime, and to expose Iraqi Kurdish bandits and reveal their premeditated plan to change the demography of the Turkmen-populated area. I would like to dedicate this book to every Turkmen who has been detained in Iraqi prisons; to Turkmen who died under torture in Iraqi prisons; to all Turkmen whose sons and daughters were executed by the Iraqi regime; to all Turkmen who fought and died without seeing a free Turkmen homeland; and to the Turkmen City of Kerkuk, which is a bastion of cultural and political life for the Turkmen resisting the Kurdish occupation.

The Iraqi Turkmen could not organize politically due to the oppressive Iraqi regimes in the period between 1921-1991. They started to carry out political activities openly after the Gulf War II in Northern Iraq. The Turkmen who are the third largest ethnic population in Iraq, pursue the policy of keeping the integrity of Iraqi territory, enjoying the same equal rights as the other ethnic groups and being a founding member in the constitution.
