Emergence and development of the feeling of "turkophobia" in France among Anatolian immigrants and their descendants

Résumé

The Franco-Turkish tensions of 2020-2021 have intensified the feeling of turkophobia among people with a Turkish immigration background in France. This feeling of being marginalized within one's own or host country has already been highlighted on several occasions since the signing of labor agreements between Ankara and Paris, like several other Western European capitals, in the mid-1960s. Turkish immigration to France has historically suffered from an image of lack of integration into the host society, where it has been described as an inward-looking community characterized by its entre-soi. Debates on Turkey's potential accession to the European Union have also helped to crystallize this feeling of rejection, particularly in France, where the 2007 presidential campaign was marked by the victory of a candidate advocating the non-European character of Turkish identity. However, people who consider themselves non-Turkish have also settled in France from Turkey over the last century, and in turn tend to disseminate discourses opposed to the country's governments - or even to its very existence - as a result of their own history of conflict with the various governments that have governed it. The aim of this paper is to present these different forms of opposition to Turkey in France, and the effects they can have on people who are originally from Turkey, or who consider themselves to be the product of Turkish immigration.
