In this paper, the relationship between gender equality and gender division of housework is analyzed. Since, housework, chores have been mostly described as tasks of women whereas men are related within paid labor. Yet, rates of gender equality and sequences of countries have been measured due to public institutions and public politics towards gender relations to the exclusion of division of labor. Gender Inequality Index (GII) which is a report of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) to measure gender inequality of countries is used to evaluate gender inequality by using three important aspects of human development: reproductive health, empowerment and economic status, expressed as labor market participation.

In time, with the increase in the number of the Syrian population in the country, interest of Turkish media towards the situation of Syrian refugees has also increased. This study aims to underline the news coverage specifically focusing on the image of Syrian women to answer the question in mind: “what does the image of Syrian women tell us about the gender-differentiated approaches of media?” This study uses citizen theories on refugees to emphasis the suspension of their rights due to their status as “not being citizen” or “not having a state of their own” while pointing out the gender-based discrimination as well as the refugee-based discrimination together. Therefore, this paper argues that Syrian women have been holding double burden as being both woman and refugee in Turkey and this burden to be traced in ...

Öz Suriye iç savaşının başlangıcından itibaren Suriye vatandaşları, Türkiye'nin açık kapı politikası nedeniyle koruma beklenti ve umuduyla Türkiye'ye kaçmaya başla-dı. Zamanla, ülkedeki Suriyeli nüfusun artışıyla birlikte, Türk medyasının Suriyeli mültecilerin durumuna olan ilgisi de arttı. Bu çalışma, özellikle Suriyeli kadınların medyada yer alan haberlere odaklanarak, "Suriyeli kadınların görüntülerinin med-yanın cinsiyete dayalı farklılaşmış yaklaşımları hakkında ne dediğini" anlamayı amaçlıyor. Bu çalışma, mülteci temelli ayrımcılığın yanı sıra cinsiyete dayalı ay-rımcılığa işaret ederken, bununla birlikte vatandaş teorilerini kullanarak mültecile-rin "vatandaş olmama" veya "kendi devletine sahip olmama" statüsünden dolayı haklarının askıya alınmasını vurgulamaktadır. Dolayısıyla, bu çalışma, Suriyeli ka-dınların Türkiye'de hem kadın hem de mülteci olarak çifte yük taşıdığını ve bunun izlerinin gazetelerin Suriyeli kadın görüntülerinde bulunabileceğini savunmaktadır.
