Özet:

 People prefer urban living spaces to live due to the development of technology, the high level of institutionalization, the abundance and diversity of business areas. Intensive migration from rural areas to cities causes an increase in the search for new settlements in cities, infrastructure problems, transportation problems, education and health problems. However, although the geographical conditions are not suitable, that is, the risk of natural disasters is high, it causes people to settle in disaster areas. This situation causes social resilience to decrease and vulnerabilities to increase in case of any disaster. Resilience varies according to personality traits, gender, educational level, social status, urban infrastructure and geographical location. Disadvantaged groups are much more affected by these disasters. The resilience of women identified among disadvantaged groups is lower due to their gender roles. In this context, the main problem of the study is that the disadvantage brought by gender inequality increases the vulnerability of women in the earthquake. The main purpose of the study is to reveal the vulnerabilities of women resulting from their gender roles in the earthquake and the reasons for these vulnerabilities . The study consists of three parts. The first section includes information about womens gender roles, natural disasters and vulnerabilities caused by natural disasters, and the method of the study. In the second part, the research findings of the study are included and the vulnerabilities experienced by women affected by the earthquake are discussed from a sociological perspective; The conclusion section includes conceptual and theoretical discussions regarding the findings.

 Teknolojinin gelişmesi, kurumsallaşma düzeyinin yüksek olması, iş sahalarının fazlalılığı ve çeşitliliği nedeniyle insanlar yaşamak için kentsel yaşam alanlarını tercih etmektedirler. Kırsal alandan kente yoğun göçün yaşanması kentlerde yeni yerleşim yeri arayışının artması, alt yapı sorunları, ulaşım problemleri, eğitim ve sağlık sorunlarının armasına neden olmaktadır. Bununla birlikte coğrafi koşulların uygun olmamasına rağmen yani doğal afetlerin görülme riskinin yüksek olmasına rağmen insanların afet bölgelerine yerleşim yeri kurmasına neden olmaktadır. Bu durum ise herhangi bir afetle karşılaşılması durumunda toplumsal direncin düşmesine ve kırılganlıkların artmasına neden olmaktadır. Dirençlilik kişilik özellikleri, cinsiyet, eğitim durumu, toplumsal statü, kentsel alt yapı, coğrafi konuma göre değişkenlik göstermektedir. Dezavantajlı gruplar ise bu afetlerden çok daha fazla etkilenmektedir. Dezavantajlı gruplar arasında tanımlanan kadınların direnci sahip oldukları toplumsal cinsiyet rollerinden dolayı daha düşük konumdadır. Bu kapsamda depremde kadının toplumsal cinsiyet eşitsizliğinin beraberinde getirdiği dezavantajlılığın kadınların kırılganlıklarını artırması çalışmanın temel problemini oluşturmaktadır. Depremde kadınların toplumsal cinsiyet rollerinden kaynaklanan kırılganlıklarını ve bu kırılganlıkların nedenlerini ortaya koymak çalışmanın temek amacını oluşturmaktadır. Çalışma üç bölümden oluşmaktadır. Birinci bölümde kadının toplumsal cinsiyet rolleri , doğal afetler ve doğal afetlerin ortaya çıkardığı kırılganlıklar ve çalışmanın yöntemine ilişkin bilgiler yer almaktadır. İkinci bölümde çalışmanın araştırma bulgularına yer verilmekte ve afetzede kadınların depremde yaşadıkları kırılganlıklar sosyolojik açıdan tartışılmakta; sonuç bölümde ise elde edilen bulgulara ilişkin kavramsal ve kuramsal tartışmalar yer almaktadır.
