In this paper, we contend that the regulation of refugees by means of discipline is not limited to camps; it also takes place within the context of urban life. This is particularly relevant for Turkey, where only 1.5% of the 3.7 million Syrian refugees live in the camps while the rest are dispersed across Turkish cities. Our fieldwork conducted in the city of İzmir indicates that the processes of governing refugees extend into the neighbourhoods through “informal” disciplinary techniques deployed by citizens. The disciplinary techniques could take various forms, such as socio-spatial distancing and corporal violence. The discipline in the neighbourhoods sets limits on the Syrians’ collective presence in the city and inculcates the possible results they could face if they attempt to breach these limits. The disciplinary actions of the host community unfold in the context of the Turkish state's legal regulations and discursive strategies that circumscribe Syrians to a specific political position relative to the state and, by extension, to the citizens. The process of disciplining refugees in the neighbourhoods depoliticizes Syrian refugees by obstructing their collective will to contest their precarious status and the exploitative working conditions.

通过邻里纪律进行治理:城市生活中的叙利亚难民和土耳其公民

在本文中,我们主张通过纪律来规范难民并不仅限于难民营;它也发生在城市生活的背景下。这对土耳其来说尤其重要,在土耳其,370 万叙利亚难民中只有 1.5% 住在难民营中,而其余的则分散在土耳其城市中。我们在伊兹密尔市进行的实地调查表明,管理难民的过程通过公民部署的“非正式”纪律技术延伸到社区。惩戒技术可以采取多种形式,例如社会空间距离和肉体暴力。社区的纪律限制了叙利亚人在城市的集体存在,并灌输了如果他们试图违反这些限制,他们可能面临的可能结果。东道国社区的纪律行动是在土耳其国家的法律法规和话语策略的背景下展开的,这些策略将叙利亚人限制在相对于国家乃至公民的特定政治立场上。在社区对难民进行纪律处分的过程阻碍了叙利亚难民对抗其不稳定地位和剥削性工作条件的集体意愿,从而使他们去政治化.
