Abstract

Bu makalede Finlandiya'da yaşayan ve Türkiye'den gelen ve kendi işinde çalışan göçmenlerin deneyimleri ele alınmaktadır. Göçmenler, ağırlıklı olarak Finlandiya'daki restoran ve hazır yemek sektöründe, özellikle küçük, kebap ve pizza işletmelerinde faaliyet göstermektedir. Makale kendi işinde çalışanların hem ekonomik hem de sosyal deneyimlerini açıklamaktadır. Ekonomik sıkıntılara rağmen, girişimcilikle bağlantılı olarak görülen bağımsızlık ve sosyal statü çok değerlidir. Kendi işinde çalışma, Türkiye'den gelen göçmenlerin Finlandiya toplumunda başka yollarla elde etmenin zor olduğu olumlu bir öz-saygı ve iyi bir sosyal statü sağlamaktadır. ABSTRACT IN ENGLISH Entrepreneurship as Social Status: Turkish Immigrants’ Experiences of Self-Employment in Finland The article discusses the experiences of self-employment among immigrants from Turkey living in Finland. The im-migrants are mainly active in the restaurant and fast food sector in Finland, primarily in small kebap and pizza businesses. The article argues that both economic and social as-pects explain the experiences of self-employment. Despite economic hardship, the freedom and social status connected to entrepreneurship is highly valued. Self-employment pro-vides a positive self-understanding and a good social status, which the immigrants from Turkey find it difficult to achieve by any other means in Finnish society.
