This chapter focuses on how racism has been shaped in the context of migration flows in the Turkish Republic as one of the legacies of the new century, as its first century ends and moves into the second. Contrary to the widespread belief that “There is no racism in Turkey” since the emergence of modern Turkey as a nation-state, racism against non-Muslims and Kurds that are perceived as external to the polity has persisted. Xenophobia is a more recent phenomenon, linked to the influx of Syrians in the 2010s, yet its target is not limited to Syrians. A dangerous amalgamation of racism and xenophobia has emerged in a new form as xeno-racism, which manifests itself in a cluster of intersectionality directed at refugees. This study examines the rapid rise of xenophobia through its manifestations in pogroms as the most extreme forms of violence.
