The Significance of Women’s Will in the Decision on Internal Migrat？on: Young Women’s Preception of Marriage as a Path to Migrate from Countryside to City

The study of the trend of urban – rural population shift is based on long-term observation. In the studies, cases of young men who could not marry as long as they lived in a village, and young women who transformed marriage into an opportunity to migrate to urban areas were addressed, showing both reasons for migration and the problems of an after migration life. The reasons for migration following are a wish to dismiss intense working life and the hope of creating a nuclear family, avoiding a traditional relationship with one’s in-laws. It was determined that young men were not able to marry while living in the village and they could find job and marry very soon after moving to city. Elders who continue their lives in the village who also once experienced the difficulties of traditional structure (finding a bride, difficulties in living conditions etc.) also live in loneliness, which is a significant issue of our time. The traditional village structure of consuming what they produce and doing various types of work is replaced by readymade product consumption and monotonous work. This has negative effects on migrants. Migrant men face a lot of problems, in cities such as finding a job, adapting to work, a lack of flexibility in working life, adapting to urban life, and finding accommodation and adequate nutrition. Migrant women have difficulties with limited neighborhood relations, an inability to participate working life, and a failure to adapt to urban life
