Roberts, Keri. „The labour force experiences of refugees in Britain : the case of refugees from Vietnam“. Thesis, University of Sheffield, 1998. http://etheses.whiterose.ac.uk/15143/.
Annotation:
This thesis examines the labour force experiences of refugees living in Britain. By describing and exploring the employment, unemployment, training and job-search experiences of refugees from Vietnam it seeks to fill gaps in the existing literature. The literature currently recognises the importance of employment in the resettlement process, but fails to provide much insight into the long term experiences of refugees. Further, this thesis presents a new conceptual framework for understanding refugee labour force experiences. Literature from a wide range of disciplines informs a theoretical framework which stresses the complex and diverse nature of influences on refugee labour force experiences. The review of the experiences of refugees from Vietnam, draws on existing literature and novel quantitative analysis of the 1991 census, before giving a voice to the refugees themselves. Workers at 27 Vietnamese Community Associations around Britain describe labour force experiences in the areas they serve, while half also detail their own individual labour force careers. Throughout, emphasis is placed on the refugees' own interpretations of what has influenced their labour force experiences, and their reactions to those experiences. This thesis confirms that the refugees from Vietnam are spatially concentrated in locations which are characterised by high unemployment and a high ethnic Chinese population. This is reflected in their labour force experiences, which are dominated by unemployment or manual employment, particularly within the ethnic sector. Employment remains a minority experience for Vietnam refugees living in the majority of locations, although location specific differences in labour force experiences are identified. Self-reliance within the community of refugees from Vietnam is strong, as is the significance of access to labour force opportunities with the ethnic Chinese population. Both factors, do however have benefits and drawbacks. The evidence presented in this thesis supports the proposed framework for understanding refugee labour force experiences. Accordingly, this thesis argues for a refugee policy which recognises both the importance of employment in the resettlement process, and the complexity of factors which influence labour force experiences. A comprehensive programme of intervention is recommended to improve refugee labour force experiences, and community development is seen as a key element of this. A call for a permanent refugee resettlement organisation is also made.

Yuen, Hong-kiu, und 袁康翹. „Proxy humanitarianism : Hong Kong's Vietnamese refugee crisis, 1975-79“. Thesis, The University of Hong Kong (Pokfulam, Hong Kong), 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/10722/210188.
Annotation:
Set against the backdrop of the Cold War and the declining British Empire, this thesis explores how the Hong Kong government handled the Vietnamese refugee crisis of the 1970s. The Vietnamese refugee influx started after the fall of Saigon in 1975 and temporarily stopped after the Geneva Conference on Indochinese refugees in 1979. Drawing extensively upon recently declassified files from the National Archives in London and the National Archives in Maryland, the thesis discusses several important themes, for example, international concerns about human rights during the Cold War era, interpretations of humanitarianism, and Hong Kong’s autonomy in the age of decolonization. It argues that Britain exerted its international influence by forcing Hong Kong to be a first asylum for refugees. Hong Kong played an important role in demonstrating Britain’s contribution to resolving the refugee crisis. The colony served as a place for Britain’s proxy humanitarianism. This thesis shows that international expectations of human rights conflicted with local politics in Hong Kong. Unlike studies that stress Hong Kong’s increasing autonomy, this thesis shows that the colonial authorities played a passive role in the refugee crisis, and the British government still had the final say on Hong Kong’s refugee policy.
This thesis comprises three chapters. The first chapter investigates the case of two freighters that rescued Vietnamese refugees in 1975 and 1976. The Danish-registered Clara Maersk arrived in Hong Kong on 30 April 1975, marking the beginning of the refugee crisis. As the British and Hong Kong governments were uncertain about the scale of the influx and had different expectations about Britain’s contribution to ending the refugee problem, the Clara Maersk incident triggered heated debates. The incident demonstrates how Britain’s domestic affairs led to the British government’s reluctant assistance to Hong Kong. The Burmese-registered Ava that arrived in Hong Kong on 6 July 1976 with ninety-eight refugees reveals the unclear responsibility for shipwrecked refugees rescued by foreign vessels. The Ava incident shows how Hong Kong’s refugee influx was treated as an American problem. The U.S. government saw Hong Kong’s regional role of strengthening Southeast Asian countries’ involvement in America’s refugee program. The second chapter investigates the second wave of Vietnamese refugees. The deteriorating Sino-Vietnamese relations in 1978 led to an exodus of ethnic Chinese from Vietnam. The Vietnamese government officially permitted the ethnic Chinese to leave in return for payment. This chapter examines the pre-arranged vessels that transported refugees to other countries under collaboration with the Vietnamese authorities. The final chapter focuses on how the British government relieved Hong Kong’s refugee burden as cheaply as possible. On the one hand, the British government wanted to show its contribution to resolving the refugee crisis by maintaining Hong Kong’s humanitarian policy. On the other hand, it did not want to take the Vietnamese refugees because of Britain’s own immigration problems. By initiating an international conference on Indochinese refugees, the British government internationalized the refugee problem and minimized its responsibility for the crisis.published_or_final_version

Annotation:
Vietnam was partitioned at the 17th parallel on 21 July 1954 with the signing of the Geneva Accords. During the following three hundred days, between 600,000 and one million Vietnamese civilians traveled from North Vietnam to South Vietnam. Three hundred thousand of these individuals were transported in the United States Navy's evacuation efforts, dubbed Operation Passage to Freedom. The Navy recognized the propaganda value of the evacuation from areas under communist control, but American audiences did not respond to the coverage afforded to the American operation. In 1956, a year after the completion of the evacuation, Dr. Thomas Dooley released Deliver Us from Evil, a first-hand account of his own experiences in Vietnam during the evacuation. This book enjoyed literary success and became a bestseller. This study explores the reasons Dooley enjoyed propagandistic success while other pieces of propaganda failed to sustain American interest.

Albertson, W. Cory. „Survival Feminists: Identifying War’s Impact on the Roles of Vietnamese Refugee Women“. Digital Archive @ GSU, 2009. http://digitalarchive.gsu.edu/sociology_theses/24.
Annotation:
Although the Vietnam War has long passed, it still defines the lives of many Vietnamese refugee women who endured its aftermath. This thesis examines how war and the refugee process has shaped the memories and changed the roles of Vietnamese refugee women age 55 and older. Based on 10 life history interviews with Vietnamese women living in Atlanta, this study finds they structured their narratives by awarding the period after the Vietnam War with the most prominence. Also, the research shows the greatest amount of role change and role strain occurred during this time. With the absence of their husbands in the war’s aftermath, the women experienced great familial and financial instability, forcing them to add the role of head of the household. I argue that during this period, they exhibited resiliency, shrewdness, and entrepreneurial spirit on a familial scale—a culmination of events I define as survival feminism.

The central highlands of Vietnam were of vital strategic importance during the Second Indochina War (1955-1975); the collapse of South Vietnamese forces in this region in March 1975 led to the fall of Saigon just one month later. Despite this area’s importance, most central highlands historiography addresses large military campaigns, such as the 1972 Nguyen Hue “Easter Offensive” and the 1975 Ho Chi Minh Offensive. Micro-histories are of great value in examining the implementation of national programs, yet all province case studies examine events in the more heavily populated and ethnically homogeneous Saigon and Mekong Delta regions of the Republic of Vietnam (RVN). This thesis examines Lam Dong province, at the southern end of the Vietnamese central highlands. Focusing on the territorial forces initiative and RVN policy toward ethnic minority Montagnards in the highlands—two vital yet under-studied topics in Vietnam War historiography—this study demonstrates the operational success of the former and the strategic failure of the latter. The thesis is organized chronologically and concentrates on the final six years of the war, when South Vietnamese officials were increasingly promulgating and executing policy. The first part of the study details background information and outlines the war through 1967, when the National Liberation Front (NLF) held the advantage. The middle section scrutinizes the late 1960s and early 1970s and describes the factors that led to increased province security. The final section analyzes the final two years of the war following the departure of U.S. troops. In this period, South Vietnamese forces held the advantage against a weakened NLF, yet ordinary citizens’ discontent reached a climax. In-depth study of both province- and national-level documents from this period demonstrates that local officials, both American and Vietnamese, often attempted to address challenges but were hindered by the centralized nature of the Saigon bureaucracy. The inability and unwillingness of the RVN to address adequately issues such as highlands refugee policy led to the gradual dissatisfaction of many Montagnards in the highlands. This study elucidates RVN initiatives such as the territorial force, Main Living Area, and Return to Village programs—seldom-mentioned yet key facets of the Saigon government’s attempt to mollify ethnic tensions and counter the threat posed by the NLF.

Annotation:
Notre présence de 1990 à 2010 en qualité d’éducateur spécialisé sur Beaubreuil, quartier de la ville de Limoges, Haute-Vienne, nous a permis d’accompagner, d’observer et de prendre part pendant plus de vingt années aux processus migratoires vietnamiens. Durant tout ce temps nous avons pu constater d’un point de vue psychologique que les ruptures consécutives à l’exil, puis au choc culturel né du contact avec la société d’accueil, ont fait surgir chez les individus des problématiques complexes, notamment identitaires. Dans l’exil, pour faire face aux risques psychosociaux provoqués par l’instabilité de leur structure psychique et de leur système culturel, les vietnamiens ont investi l’espace public et l’espace privé proposés par la culture d’accueil. Ces démarches, multiples, leur ont permis dans le réaménagement de ces espaces, de retrouver, de recréer, les éléments perçus par eux comme fondamentaux de leur culture d’origine, nécessaires et indispensables au travail de rééquilibrage psychique. En France, l’injonction culturelle vietnamienne d’élaboration d’autels religieux au sein de leurs habitations a conduit les personnes à réinterpréter, au sein de dynamiques subjectives, la question des différentes composantes de leur identité, personnelle et sociale, culturelle et religieuse. Les interactions entre l’injonction de la culture d’origine et l’espace proposé par la culture d’accueil ont conduit les sujets à engager des transformations, des modifications dans l’élaboration de leurs autels religieux. En ce sens ces élaborations rendent compte et constituent des analyseurs particulièrement pertinents des processus d’interculturationOur presence from 1990 to 2010 as a social worker in Beaubreuil, district of the city of Limoges, Haute-Vienne, allowed us to support, observe and take part for over twenty years in the Vietnamese migration processes. All this time, we noted from a psychological perspective, that ruptures, resulting from the exile, then from the culture shock, were born by contacts with the host society, have given rise to individuals, complex problems including identity ones. In exile, to face the psychosocial risks caused by the instability of their psychic structure and their cultural system, the Vietnamese have invested public and private areas offered by the host culture. These approaches, multiple, allowed them in the redevelopment of these areas, to find, to recreate the elements perceived by them as fundamental in their native culture, necessary and essential to their work of psychic restructuring. In France, the cultural injunction of religious altars development in the private sphere has led them to reinterpret in a subjective way the question of the different components of their identity personal and social, cultural and religious The interactions between the native culture injunction and the space proposed by the host culture has engaged transformations, changes in the elaboration of religious altars. In that way, they are reflecting and are forming analyzers, particularly relevant to us, the intercultural exchange process

„Health care and reference to Vietnam: experiences of immigrants and refugees in Saskatoon“. Thesis, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10388/ETD-2015-06-2100.
Annotation:
This thesis focuses on the experiences of Vietnamese immigrants and refugees in accessing health care services in Saskatoon. Within Canada, terms such as immigrant and refugee are assigned to reflect the differing circumstances that “newcomers,” i.e. foreign-born residents, arrive under, who are typically classified as either temporary or permanent residents (Gushulak et al. 2011). Research has suggested that newcomers to Canada from non-European countries tend to under-utilize health services (Curtis and MacMinn 2008; Luu, Leung and Nash 2009; O’Mahony and Donnelly 2007; Whitley, Kirmayer and Groleau 2006), while language and cultural differences are cited as barriers to health care (Asanin and Wilson 2008; Gushulak et al. 2011; Kirmayer et al. 1996). Qualitative health research regarding Vietnamese immigrants and refugees in Saskatchewan is currently lacking. The purpose of this study was to elicit a deeper understanding of experiences in accessing health care services through open-ended interviews. A total of 14 interviews were conducted regarding the health care experiences of members of the Vietnamese community in Saskatoon. The aim was to examine the possible socio-cultural determinants affecting the experiences of this study’s participants, to explore whether or not these determinants resulted in health care under-utilization, and to determine areas for future research, particularly, in working to resolve barriers to care for immigrant and refugee groups.
Participants iterated the challenges that newcomers face in accessing health care, such as language, cultural, geographical, and socio-economic differences, as identified within the literature. However, the most elaborate responses given by the Vietnamese-born participants in this study were built around references to Vietnam (their country of origin). In particular, they described their experiences in Saskatoon through comparisons of health care and larger socio-economic circumstances in Vietnam. While participants described both positive and negative experiences, the consensus was that health care is generally better in Canada than in Vietnam. This thesis illustrates the value of examining the participants’ descriptions of Vietnam in understanding their experiences with health care in Saskatoon. These findings contribute to a contextual understanding of the socio-cultural determinants affecting the experiences of immigrants and refugees. I follow previous research studies to suggest that the cross-cultural contexts of health and illness need to be continually explored in health research regarding immigrants and refugees.

Annotation:
Every year thousands of families experience a major
life-changing event when they are torn from their
homeland and become refugees. Little is known about how
the refugee experience impacts the family and how members
perceive it affects their sense of family identity. The
construct of family identity as proposed by Bennett,
Wolin, & McAvity (1988) includes: (a) family membership,
(b) quality of day to day life, and (c) an elusive
historical dynamic that includes recollections and
beliefs about a family's past. The purpose of this study
was to explore the third component, that is, how family
history affects family identity. This was done by asking
family members how they perceive that their experience,
the discrete event of being refugees, shaped, and
continues to shape, their sense of family identity.
Seventeen members from ten refugee families who fled
Cambodia and Vietnam and who subsequently resettled in
the United States between 1975 and 1990, were
interviewed. Transcripts were qualitatively analyzed.
Findings support the two primary components of the family
identity construct as well as the existence of a third
component. The experience of being a refugee influences
(in both expected and unexpected ways) how members
perceive their family identity.Graduation date: 1997

Annotation:
There is a tendency in Vancouver, British Columbia (BC), to racialize and criminalize
recently-arrived minorities. This acts as a barrier to successful integration between
newcomers and host groups. The difficulties inherent in these processes have been
exacerbated for Vietnamese settlers through the prominence they gained in the media and
public discourse during the Allied War in Vietnam, Operation Babylift and the Private
Sponsorship Programme. Through interviews and discourse analysis, I have come to
believe that the framing of Vietnamese 'refugee' bodies has provided an extraordinary
venue for Canada to produce, naturalize and reify the settler nation as humanitarian,
compassionate, enlightened, unified and permanent - as more than we truly are - in a
collective forgetting of the less press-worthy of our flaws. This discursive strategy
intersects and overdetermines the hi/multicultural settler state while also threatening to
undermine it. Thus, to a certain extent, Vietnamese (and other) refugee bodies resignify
from receptive, when/where the public is in favour of refugee sponsorship, to criminal,
when/where they are not. This discursive 'risky refugee' rides the contradictions of
liberal humanitarianism, marginalizing the formerly welcomed and undermining the
political will to support the refugee process.
There are strong interests in the Lower Mainland of BC who work tirelessly to
sponsor and support refugees, despite this fickle nature of self-serving public opinion,
pressuring the government to live up to its myth. Meanwhile, Vietnamese people in
Vancouver, in general, have struggled and fought to rid themselves of the myths created
through pejorative racialization and criminalization. My position in this thesis is that we
need to relax this space of very constricted possibilities for negotiations around identity
and space, acknowledging refugees as more than just under-educated, potentiallydiseased
and probably-criminal Others. Suggestions, in the final chapter, come directly
from interview material, as all study participants have had at least 20 years of refugee
support and advocacy. The more general conclusion, from theoretical, operational and
epistemological perspectives, is that we should work through all our diverse
vulnerabilities to re-imagine a multiculturalism more expansive than inclusive. I hope
my thesis will challenge the shaky short-term humanitarianism of the liberal state,

„The Value of Dust: Policy, Citizenship and Vietnam's Amerasian Children“. Doctoral diss., 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/2286/R.I.29652.
Annotation:
abstract: This project examines the decision of American policymakers to deny the Amerasians of Vietnam--the offspring of American fathers and Vietnamese mothers born as a result of the Vietnam War--American citizenship in the 1982 Amerasian Immigration Act and the 1987 Amerasian Homecoming Act. It investigates why policymakers deemed a population unfit for the responsibilities of American society, despite the fact that they had American fathers.
The examination draws upon numerous archival collections of the key policymakers, humanitarians and non-governmental organizations involved in each piece of legislation. Additionally, archival and published documents from the U.S. government and military, popular media, and veteran's organizations, are important. Since many of those involved in the legislation are still living, oral history interviews are also a critical piece of the methodology.
The dissertation argues that the exclusion of citizenship was a component of bigger issues: international relationships in a Cold War era, America's defeat in the Vietnam War, and a history in the United States of racialized exclusionary immigration and citizenship policies against people of Asian descent. It exposes the contradictory approach of policymakers unable to reconcile the Amerasian mixture of race and nation with US law. Consequently, policymakers simultaneously employed an inclusionary discourse that deemed the Amerasians worthy of American attention, guidance and humanitarian aid, and implemented exclusionary policies that designated them unfit for the responsibilities of American citizenship.Dissertation/Thesis
