Summary/Abstract: This study aims at finding the general profile of the illegal migrants interdicted during their attempt to illegally migrate through Aegean Sea in Turkey, determining their target and source countries, revealing their opinions and expectations concerning future and making estimations for the future of the illegal migration. Despite the presence of various studies and researches on migration in our country, the literature hosts no study concerning the illegal migration conducted by way of sea and the general profile of the illegal migrants. In this study, firstly the general profile of the illegal migrants have been determined as a result of a six-month study and then foresights have been developed for the fundamental causes and future of the illegal migration on the basis of the data collected. Existing data on illegal migration points out that the illegal migration will follow a speedily rising trend in case the existing conditions, particularly globalization process prevail. In order to make estimations for future, it is necessary to find out the cases and consequences of “the migration of tribes” which occurred due to same reasons and compare them with those of today’s illegal migration events. It should be kept in mind that illegal migration can not be prevented through deterrent powers such as law enforcement units, as it is in many countries today. The fact that such measures would cause an outburst in different ways in the future should also be taken into consideration.
