Die Interessenvertretung im Wohlfahrtsstaat unter den sich verändernden Kontextbedingungen ist ein zentrales Thema der Sozialpolitikforschung. Veränderungen wie die neuen sozialen Risiken stellen die Sozialpolitik und auch die Interessenorganisationen vor neue Herausforderungen. Zunehmend rücken schwache Interessen (z.B. Geringqualifizierte) in den Mittelpunkt. Daher stehen verschiedene Felder der sozialstaatlichen Interessenvertretung im Zentrum des Bandes. In Deutschland und international vergleichend wird untersucht, inwiefern sich die Konstellationen der Interessenvertretung in der sich wandelnden Wohlfahrtsstaatlichkeit verändert haben. Die Palette der untersuchten Akteure ist dabei breit: Neben den Gewerkschaften und Arbeitgeberverbänden werden auch Parteien und andere Interessenorganisationen untersucht, die sonst in der Forschung zu wenig Beachtung finden. Dazu zählen neben den kommunalen Spitzenverbänden auch die Sozialgerichte und verschiedene bildungspolitische Akteure.Mit Beiträgen von Lena Brüsewitz, Imke Friedrich, Sascha Kristin Futh, Tanja Klenk, Ulrike A.C.

Klappentext: This report aims to document and evaluate the outcomes of the regional workshop on "Syrian Refugees and Integration of Syrians" held in Istanbul in February 2017. The workshop was organized by the Global Labour University (GLU) Alumni Network in Turkey in collaboration with International Centre for Development and Decent Work (ICDD),the University of Kassel, German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), International Labour Organization (ILO), Global Labour University (GLU), Bogaziçi University Centrefor Educational Policy Studies (BEPAM) and Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung (FES) Turkey Office, with particular focus on the composition and narratives of the Syrian refugees through the "fishbowl session".The report finds that Syrian refugees have a very difficult life in Turkey in terms of working conditions, living conditions, discrimination, bureaucracy, lack of enough regulation,child education, language barriers etc. One of the most important concerns for Syrian refugees is child labour. Owing to unemployment of Syrian adults, most parents areforced to send their kids to work. With ineffective state control on employment and labour market, employers prefer to recruit children who are paid low wages, thereby enablingthem to make higher profits. The other problems Syrian refugees face in the labour markets are low wages, long working hours, employment without social insurance, latepayment or non-payment of the wages, discrimination at the workplace, etc. Regarding accommodation, majority of the Syrian refugees live in a populous household, payinghigher rents for lower quality houses in comparison with domestic people. In addition, the situation of Syrian refugees in Turkey has a strong gender dimension. The Syrianfemales work as precarious workers at the workplace. They are the most affected and vulnerable workers. In addition, Syrian female refugees also take the responsibility ofthe education of the children who face different types of discrimination at school, with which again Syrian female refugees have to struggle.These problems have created barriers for Syrian refugees in exercising their rights at the workplace and in taking services from public institutions including healthcare andeducation. Besides, as findings show, the Syrian refugees are placed in the lowest strata of the labour markets of Turkey.
