Özet:

 Within the framework of a global and post-modern critique of the world system, contemporary migration and immigration have emerged as pivotal political, economic, and socio-cultural concerns. They are rooted in the intellectual backdrop of 20thcentury social theories, with a specific focus on globalization, urbanization, social structures, and cultural interactions. Acknowledging migration as a multifaceted, layered process involving both migrant communities and host populations, this process manifests in diverse everyday performances. Humans, as biological, psychological, and sociological entities, imbue the spaces and times they inhabit with meaning through communication and interaction with their environment, employing various symbolic signifiers. Culture represents the meanings individuals attach to these symbols, rendering it a dynamic, ever-changing process. This study aims to conduct a content analysis of visual and auditory data gathered from the engagement ceremony of Afghan Uzbek immigrants in Eskisehir in 2018. It explores the processes of reconstruction and adaptation within the prevailing dominant culture as a result of Afghan Uzbek immigrants relocating to Eskisehir while carrying their cultural spaces and traditions. The study identifies significant symbolic relationships between Uzbek, Afghan, and Turkish cultures, offering an original contribution through its ethnographic case analysis encompassing themes of migration, immigrant cultures, identity, interaction, and space.

 Global ve post-modern bir dünya-sistem eleştirisi olarak günümüzde önemli politik, ekonomik ve sosyokültürel bir mesele olan göç ve göçmenlik; 20. yüzyıl sosyal kuram ve teorilerinin düşünsel arka planını oluştururken özellikle küreselleşme, kentleşme, sosyal yapı ve kültürel etkileşim odağında çokkültürlü ve kolektif bir temsiliyet kazanır. Göç olgusunun hem göç etmiş gruplar hem de göç edilen bölge halkı ile içine girilen çoklu ve katmanlı bir kültürel etkileşimiletişim süreci olduğu göz önünde bulundurulduğunda bu süreç, gündelik yaşamda her türlü performansa yansımaktadır. Biyolojik, psikolojik ve sosyolojik bir varlık olan insan, çevresi ile kurduğu iletişim ve etkileşim sonucu, içinde bulunduğu mekân ve zamana çeşitli anlamlar yükler. Bu anlamlar bir takım sembolik göstergeler içerir. Kültür, insanların bu sembollere yükledikleri anlamları ifade eder ve dolayısıyla değişken, geçirgen ve devingen bir süreçtir. Çalışma, 2018 yılında Eskişehirde katılım sağlanan, Afganistanlı Özbek göçmenlerin nişan eğlencesinden toplanan görsel-işitsel verilerin içerik analizini amaçlamaktadır. Bu doğrultuda, Eskişehire göç ederek yerleşmiş olan Afganistanlı Özbek göçmenlerin, kültürel mekân ve geleneklerini taşımaları sonucu mevcut hâkim kültür içerisinde yeniden yapılanma ve inşa süreçleri irdelenmiş, Özbek, Afgan ve Türk kültürlerine dair önemli sembolik ilişkiler gözlemlenmiştir. Çalışmanın göç, göçmen kültürler, kimlik, etkileşim, mekân gibi konular özelinde etnografik bir vaka analizi içermesi yönüyle özgün olduğu düşünülmektedir.
