Following the French Revolution of 1789, two opposing ideologies gathered momentum in France: monasticism and anti-clericalism. Beginning in 1815, enlistment of nuns in religious congregations doubled every fifteen years until the end of the century. During this period, anti-clericalism remained a potent political and social force. As with any institution of power, narratives served as a persuasive medium to influence the reading public. Anti-clerical sentiment was conveyed in various forms of text, often depicting the Catholic convent as a place of sinister confinement. These diverse depictions of the convent as a nefarious enclosure seem to contradict the growth and appeal of female religious orders during the epoch. This thesis offers an alternative representation of the French nineteenth-century convent. Partially owing to prevailing social, economic, and political structures that limited women's opportunities, convents attracted women from middle- or upper-class families who desired to serve in the public domains of healthcare and education. Considering this environment in France, along with the conception of social space, I argue that the convent represents a place of sanctuary and opportunity for some women and girls. Further, in view of Victor Hugo's Les Mis�rables, I examine the representation of the convent as a place for rebirth. Likewise, in analyzing George Sand's autobiography Histoire de ma vie, I explore the representation of the convent as a haven for reviving creativity. Thus, by close reading and critical examination of these literary representations, I contend that the nineteenth-century convent can provide a place of refuge.

Повний текст джерелаA dissertação analisa o processo de construção social do Refugiado em dois momentos históricos específicos da segunda metade do século XX: entre 1945- 1954 e no pós-Guerra Fria. O objetivo central é mostrar como as práticas discursivas relativas ao Refugiado são informadas pelas estruturas constitucionais da sociedade internacional e pelas crenças e valores fundamentais que definem os critérios de legitimidade da ação estatal. Procura evidenciar o caráter contingente e variável da definição do Refugiado em dois contextos de transformação da ordem internacional. A pesquisa parte da abordagem construtivista, assentada na proposta de Reus-Smit (1999) e de Onuf (1989), na tentativa de fornecer uma explicação mais adequada dos processos sociais de constituição do Refugiado na moderna sociedade de Estados, enfatizando o papel das organizações internacionais, em especial do Alto Comissariado das Nações Unidas para os Refugiados (ACNUR). Neste sentido, ressalta a importância da territorialidade e do imaginário espacial enquanto critérios centrais para a delimitação dos fenômenos migratórios forçados, critérios esses tensionados a partir da década de noventa.
The dissertation s main purpose is to analyze the process of social construction of the Refugee in two specific historical moments in the second half of the twentieth century: from 1945 to 1954 and after the end of the Cold War. The main goal is to demonstrate how discursive practices related to the refugee are informed by the constitutional structures of international society and by the fundamental values and beliefs that legitimate state action. It also aims at showing the contingent and changing nature of the refugee definition in contexts of profound transformations in international orders. The research is based on a constructivist approach, mainly in Reus-Smit (1999) and Onuf s (1989) frameworks, in an attempt to provide a more adequate understanding of the social processes constitutive of the refugee in the modern society of States, highlighting the role of international organizations, in particular the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR). In that sense, it gives emphasis to the primary importance attached to territoriality and the spatial imagery as fundamental criteria to establishing the limits of forced international migration, a criteria that has faced great challenges since the nineties.

Повний текст джерелаIn the frame of the Syrian citizens’ flight to the MENA region and to Europe between 2013 and 2016, this research reflects on the very content of the right to asylum in three border zones of Southern Europe (Lesvos, Sicily and Melilla) in order to shed light on its variable contours. Starting by an analysis of the reconfiguration of the Mediterranean space in the post-2011, both as migration regime and political space, the research path focuses to the right to asylum issue by putting the question of access at the core: access to the territory of a (supposed to be) safe country, access to the asylum procedure, and access to first reception. Moreover it examines the agency and voice of Syrian refugees during their journeys in order to promote a better understanding of certain inedited social phenomena of which they have been protagonists. The most relevant was the challenge of the prescriptions imposed by the Dublin Regulation, which took shape through various kinds of interactions with (old and new) stakeholders, and in some cases through acts of resistance, aimed at pursuing their journeys to Central the Northern European countries, generally imagined as final destinations. Through a multi-sited ethnography and a comparative approach the research attempted to explore the mechanisms through which refugees’ agency has developed and the main contents of their voice by showing how they have been able to call into question certain social structures, such as those embodied by migration and border regimes. In refugees’ narratives concerning their “ to and throughout Europe, their self-representation as human beings, who are entitled of specific fundamental rights as such, emerges as dominant and foster an interpretation of their paths of agency and resistance as rational answers to the current emptying process of the right to asylum. In other words, their secondary movements appear as attempts to revitalize the right to asylum, by filling it with the better possible content.

Повний текст джерелаIt is a major challenge for any nation to accommodate an influx of migrants corresponding to a quarter of its population in three years. This research seeks to understand how such a phenomenon, inconceivable at first glance, could have taken place in cities in Lebanon that have hosted over a million refugees from Syria since 2011. With this brutal phenomenon as a starting point, the thesis examines the factors that have made it possible for the urban refugees to settle in places marked by extreme processes of socio-spatial injustice. The thesis addresses this issue at three levels: (1 ) at the local urban scale, within which urban dwellers and refugees live a continuous cycle of dissymmetrical negotiations on the occupation and appropriation of their respective spaces, reflected in daily situations of tension and conflict; (2) at the national level, within which the internal geopolitics and the effects of government, local authority, and NGO actions play a direct role in influencing the access of refugees to the city; (3) finally at the international geopolitical scale which addresses the situation of the Middle East. At this scale, the analysis focuses on the effects of historical relations between Lebanon and Syria in the current settlement of refugees. Negotiating space is not seen as the result of an exclusively binary relationship between refugees and the host society. Rather, the thesis demonstrates how this relationship fits into mechanisms that produce and reproduce inequalities expressed on multiple scales, and touch all urban dwellers - whether they are originally Syrian, Palestinian, Lebanese from different religious groups, or even from a foreign country. The study is based on a qualitative ethnographic approach using a variety of methods, particularly in-depth interviews with diverse population samples. These are accompanied by systematic observations in three urban neighbourhoods: Tebbeneh in Tripoli, El-Nab'a and the Palestinian camp of Bourj el-Barajneh in Beirut

Повний текст джерелаOur 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

Based upon the concept of “seeing without being seen”, Appleton (1975) proposed the prospect-refuge theory (P-R theory) which was extensively used as an explanation why people prefer certain types of landscape or an information variable to predict preference by landscape researchers. Although there are some applied researches related to the P-R theory, there still needs further examination about the rationality of P-R theory to assist in validly defining the degree of prospect and refuge in landscape design. Therefore, the purposes of this study are to review the P-R theory as well as to reexamine and compare the P-R context on different landscape spaces, a natural setting and a Chinese garden, in the viewpoint of experience. To achieve the study purpose, the study adopted a qualitative oriented research method. The study used the technique of visitor employed photography (VEP) to obtain the required data (e.g., preference, the reasons why he/she prefers, experience in the setting,…etc.) from observers both in a natural environment and a Chinese garden. In-depth interviews were implemented after observers had taken all the preferred photos in his/her own will. The qualitative software of Altlas.ti was used to analyze the data. The study redefined the prospect and refuge frameworks which Appleton proposed. Moreover the results indicated that in both settings, the qualitative data from the in-depth interviews and the photos that observers shot brought up several points regarding the relationship between preference of scenes and prospect and refuge properties. In natural environment, the scenes belong to the property of vista reflected a high preference frequency and hold an extended feature. The scenes with secondary prospect configurations aroused observers’ explorative thought as well as the scenes with secondary refuge symbolism hold attractions for observers such as the buildings, shadow, or cave. In Chinese garden setting, the extended scenes belong to the prospect property reflected a high preference frequency. Furthermore, observers preferred the scenes with properties of shelters or hides belonged to refuge concept and felt to be protected. Overall to say, the study employed VEP technique and qualitative method to explore and compare the prospect and refuge context on different landscape spaces. The results of the study act as the foundation to form a practical guidance in creating a preferred environment with prospect and refuge properties which can be provided for landscape design and tourism and recreation resource investigation and planning. According to the results of the study, moreover, quantitative study can be undertaken to find out the preference of certain settings with different P-R ration in the future.

The refuge cite is indispensable to a city rescue system and is also the victims’ depending on when the calamity occurred. Reviewing Taiwan’s great earthquake calamities, windstorm disasters in the past, the military often played a very important role on rescue or restore of the disaster placing and reconstructing at the initial stage, and now, to assist the rescue system is already a normal duty for the military. The author built up the evaluated model of the refuge function on the military bases, and hope to map out the barrack’s shelter space effectively, and to achieve a good rescue function and decrease the effect of a disaster. In this paper, the author studied and built the assessment mechanism and weight of the disaster rescue and refuge function on the military bases by referring the relevant research documents and past disaster analysis cases, and using the AHP and GIS space analysis method. After collecting and evaluating from the strategic decision of twenty-one experts who are belong to four research areas, we found the “Water Storage” of the “Survival equipment” is the most important of the six evaluated items (Bases characteristic, etc.) and twenty-five evaluated criterions (effective shelter space, etc.). The actual example analysis of the Taichung City, ignoring the eight small standard deviation (≦0.2) factors (Signal communication facility, etc) which did not influence the evaluation result, show the best five bases almost have the facilities of food and drink, sleeping quarter(bedding and pillow), washroom and toilet, also larger shelter space and good communications and transportation, and that’s why they got the higher score. Go through from the result of this evaluated model and the analysis of the real example, we not only can know well the function of the facility and the nearby disaster rescue and shelter space resource on the military bases, and the analytic result of the importance of the evaluated principle also can use to be the reference for the shelter barrack selecting and the city refuge space planning in the future. Also, we can base on the requirements of the different area or different disaster phenomenon to decide the related evaluated factors, and we can choice and evaluate the barrack quickly, and that will be helpful for the disaster rescue mission of our government.

Повний текст джерелаWith 80 million people uprooted around the world, refuge spaces are coming to be the most visible urban transformations of modern times. These spaces, whose primary function is to shelter, often accommodate refugees for decades. Yet, host states, mostly developing countries, continue to host refugees without adopting comprehensive, long-term strategies for their integration, causing acute political, socio-economic, and humanitarian problems. The lack of a long-term solution is explicitly revealed by the conceptions of refugee spaces, often designed as temporary solutions. From a theoretical perspective, while social scientists and geographers have widely documented the geopolitical and anthropological aspects of forced migrations, they have neglected the concept of space appropriation and the production of place identity in refugee spaces. Indeed, their classification of space/place is often based on dichotomous conceptualizations and differs from refugees’ real-life experience. This research examines refugee spaces through the lenses of power, culture, and space. It provides new evidence on the appropriation of these spaces through refugees’ social, economic, and political practices, their interventions on space, and their perceptions of their new living environment. It also examines the impact of the strategies adopted by the international community, host governments, humanitarian organizations, and local communities. The research method is qualitative and exploratory; it is based on a multiple case study design. This methodological approach provides an in-depth understanding of refugees' perceptions on the socio-political environment undergirding displacement and on their representations of space. Three space typologies — urban dwellings, informal settlements, and organized camps — are studied with the purpose of assessing the relevance of the space-type in relation to its appropriation. The study uses ethnography as a complementary methodological approach, shedding light on the evolution of refugees’ living conditions over time and the transformation of their spaces from a cultural standpoint. It specifically focuses on Syrian refugees in Lebanon, a country which hosts the largest number of refugees per capita in the world. Overwhelmed by the number of refugees hosted, Lebanon excludes Syrian refugees from formal legal, economic, and urban systems, limiting their access to the territory, reducing the duration of their stay, and preventing the tangible and intangible consolidation of their living spaces. Yet, eight years later, the strategies adopted by the Lebanese government have proven unsuccessful: the number of Syrian refugees is roughly the same as at the beginning of the conflict and most of their spaces have been ghettoized. Results show that: 1) complex geometries of political, economic, and social powers determine the appropriation of refugee spaces; 2) weak state authority fragments traditional governance systems which leads to the emergence of informal power structures that control refugees and their spaces; 3) refugees’ exclusion exacerbates their vulnerability, while benefitting local stakeholders, subsequently reducing their chances of emigration and leading to the ghettoization of their living spaces; 4) the typology of spaces is not a major variable in relation to their appropriation; 5) the rooting of identity in the place of origin is an idea based on anti-migration political viewpoints; refugee spaces can evolve along a continuum between temporary non-places and socio-cultural places of life depending on the opportunities and challenges in the host context. Transcending the stigmatization, marginalization, and homogenization of refugee spaces, this research reveals the intimate reality of these spaces. It shows that they often become places of everyday life for refugees who form culturally dissimilar and economically hierarchical social groups. From a theoretical point of view, this research shows that hosting policies are often based on hostipitality, or a hostile form of hospitality which exacerbate refugees’ vulnerability and facilitates their exploitation. It shows that refugees’ appropriation and control of their living spaces increase proportionally with their legal inclusion and their socio-economic empowerment by the host state, inciting the rhizomic reproducibility of their individual and collective identity in their new habitat. From a practical point of view, the research shows that hosting policies adopted on the pretext of shortening the duration of refugees’ settlement are in fact in the interest of state and private actors. With the purpose of achieving spatial justice, the study recommends a change of paradigm in refugee policies with approaches that are more inclusive towards refugees leading to their self-management and their development, and adapted to the use and duration of their living spaces.

Повний текст джерелаResearch on the experiences of people from refugee backgrounds in Western nations has been dominated by inquiries into social exclusion and problematic encounters across difference. As a body of work, it tends to document despair and provides little evidence of ‘the hope residing in cities’ (R Fincher & Iveson, 2012, p. 240). Yet, many people from refugee backgrounds are welcomed by people taking individual or collective steps to foster social inclusion. The overall aim of this research is to bring a more hopeful disposition to research on people from refugee backgrounds by employing literatures on care, spaces of care and encounter to examine caring people and organisations. This thesis explores caring relationships, care practices, spaces of care and care-based encounters with people from refugee backgrounds in Newcastle, Australia. I draw on Conradson’s (2003c) framing of care as ‘a movement towards another person in a way that has the potential to facilitate or promote their well-being’ (Conradson, 2003, p. 508) and the principles of Tronto’s (1993) practice of the ethic of care, to offer a critical and hopeful analysis of grounded experiences of giving and receiving care initiated by organisations which support people from refugee backgrounds. I draw on the literature on encounter to explore the possibilities that arise in fleshy and fun care-full encounters with people from refugee backgrounds. In order to apprehend the messy and complex ways that care is performed, I draw on case studies of four organisations working with people from refugee backgrounds in Newcastle, NSW using a range of methods including interviews, document analysis and participant observation. In contrast to existing spaces of care and encounter research, I immerse myself in formal and informal spaces of care. In doing so I offer new insights into the importance of hanging out and spending time with people as a way of comprehending what happens in spaces of care and care-full encounters. This research examines the complexities of what it means to care within an organisational framework. The role of an organisational ethos in the performance of care is explored in Chapter 6. As other research on spaces of care has found, an organisational ethos is not simply set by mission statements; it is performed by people working within organisational spaces (P Cloke, Johnsen, & May, 2005). Unlike most care literature, this thesis draws on the experiences of both care givers and care receivers and offers insights into the inseparability of care giving and receiving. Previous research has emphasised that in many institutional care-giving contexts people from refugee backgrounds are called upon to perform a refugee identity – a subject position that enables them to access services, care and support, but that at the same time has precarious and limiting effects on their agency (P. Westoby & Ingamells, 2010). To explore the inseparability of care giving and receiving and performances from refugees beyond the refugee identity, I turn to caring practices of welcoming and teaching which have been absent from previous academic accounts of the experiences of people from refugee backgrounds in Western nations. In the organisational spaces I examine, I reveal that welcoming and teaching are not practices reserved for ‘host’ populations; rather, people from refugee backgrounds also perform care through welcoming and teaching. Drawing on literature on intersectionality, I reveal that in an appropriate organisational context the binary between refugee/non-refugee or care giver/care receiver can be transcended as people build on shared identities as mothers, friends, cooks, football players and people. In Chapter 7 I build on the existing spaces of care literature to reveal the importance of space in the performance of care. Like previous spaces of care literature, I explore formal institutionalised spaces, but I also contribute to the spaces of care literature by exploring spaces of protest in support of people from refugee backgrounds, and the ways that public parks are transformed into transitory spaces of care. The performances in these spaces extend beyond formal and professionalised interactions, and reflect a recognition on the part of people already living in Newcastle that it is not up to people from refugee backgrounds alone to adjust to difference; rather, it is also up to longer-term residents to perform more inclusive caring spaces and neighbourhoods. The chapter therefore examines how spaces of care encourage performances of belonging, home and hope across multiple scales of home, neighbourhood and nation. Finally, I explore caring with people from refugee backgrounds through the lens of encounter. My approach to care-full encounters is to move away from thinking that ‘meaningful’ encounters are only those that can be scaled up (Valentine, 2008). Rather, I place value in the embodied, fleshy and sensuous moments of encounter, and in doing so, I am able to reveal moments of joy, happiness and hope that are too often dismissed in the encounter literature. These moments are important because they are full of potential and the possibility of a different way of doing Australia in an extremely intolerant time. Care is not simple and easy. Caring relationships can be fraught with tensions and difficulties. Nonetheless, this thesis argues that exploring existing practices of care holds the possibility for understanding new ways of living together with difference and creating more inclusive cities. While previous literature has mostly focused on the ways that the presence of people from refugee backgrounds in Western nations seems to have created insecurities that undermine individuals’ capacity to care, this thesis avoids adopting an approach that is primarily attuned to exclusionary practices. Rather than giving a voice to the people who want to incense and create more hate, this thesis contributes to a more hopeful disposition by focusing on examples in which people demonstrate a readiness to stand up against intolerance through proactive performances of care. As people from refugee backgrounds continue to seek protection in the West, providing a caring narrative that counters the exclusionary attitudes towards their presence is essential for performing more caring and inclusive worlds.

Повний текст джерелаMy dissertation undertakes a critical assessment of and accounting for what I call “refugee camp literature” as both a cultural commodity and a literary and interdisciplinary genre on its own terms. Taxonomically, the appellation “refugee camp literature” runs the risk of falling in the very homogenizing discourse, that conflates the different accounts of the lives of the refugees, it is countering. Categorizing the selected narratives as a literary genre discloses the elusiveness of such an endeavor because the narratives themselves oscillate between various genres (Humanitarian life writing, testimonies, postcolonial bildungsroman, etc.) and such a genre is, given its political context, rather transgressive. Facing such a risk, a reconceptualization of one’s view of ‘ethical responsibility’ is needed in order to rethink our own subject-position and complicity and to make room for the Other that narrates to exist. Thus, while grouping narratives from and about refugee camps, “refugee camp literature” often dismisses the mainstream allocation of ready-made labels such as “victims,” “disposable subjects” or “speechless emissaries” to the refugees and unveils their political engagement and active participation in (re)shaping their own lives. Furthermore, particular thematic aspects explored in the chapters allow for a provisional use of the term “refugee camp literature.” These thematic affinities include, inter alia, the aspect of “waiting,” when the lives of the refugees seem to freeze in time, present and future. Another defining feature of the “refugee camp literature” is the refugees’ ability to reinvent themselves as the camp becomes “a place of new beginnings” (Simon Turner, 2015, 1). Thus, despite the precarity of life, another thematic similitude, in the refugee camps, the refugee camp dwellers exhibit survival strategies that grant them back the humanity almost stripped from them through systemic dehistorization and depoliticization. Depoliticization, Simon Turner tells us, “creates its own opposite: hyper-politicization,” (Turner, 7) which is another crucial thematic upshot. Accordingly, iv my dissertation aims at participating in the understanding of the ongoing “process by which a section of our common planet is today being put in quarantine” (Michel Agier, 2006:3). My intent is to look at the specific space from which refugee camp literature emerges and how such a liminal space may affect specific forms and strategies of narrating the self. To this aim, my first chapter distinguishes Dave Eggers’ novel What Is the What: The Autobiography of Valentino Achak Deng (2006) from the humanitarian life writing tradition it has been inscribed into. In this chapter, I study the camp as a geographically demarcated excluded/exceptional space. I try to understand the humanitarian governance of the camp and its political implication. My second chapter studies Elias Khoury’s novel Gate of the Sun (2006) and its cinematic rendition directed by Yousry Nasrallah (2004). Here, I move a step further from the camp as a purely physical limited space to study the camp as space where the dwellers question their existence and resist their confining reality and their acquired ability to infinitely reinvent themselves. The third chapter offers yet another reading of Dionne Brand’s novel What We All Long For (2005) as it problematizes the systemic differentiation between the figure of the refugee and that of the migrant. Then, it follows the crack in the narrative (the Quy sections) from which the refugee emerges as an excessive figure.

Повний текст джерелаFocusing on Zimbabwean migrants in Johannesburg, this thesis engages the ways in which diverse groups and individuals construct and negotiate spaces in the city. I have looked at how Zimbabwean migrants spatially respond to the regulatory and socio-economic environments within which they lead their everyday lives in Johannesburg. I emphasize the theme of heterogeneity, specifically highlighting the differentiated nature of Zimbabwean immigrants living in South Africa and discuss their movements and spatial identities. Theoretically, I have combined de Certeau's conception of space as represented by the schema of “strategies” of the powerful and the “tactics” of the subordinate with Bourdieu's concept of “habitus”, which operates within a field of social forces that are responsible for, and the result of, its emergence. Following my empirical engagements within the context of Johannesburg, I observe that, the initial decision by Zimbabwean migrants to move to South Africa, be it in search of work opportunities or forced by political circumstances, enable a structure that predisposes them (migrants) to continued mobility. Firstly, as transnational migrants who engage in frequent short term and long term movements between Zimbabwe and South Africa. Secondly, as transient residents of Johannesburg who frequently change residential addresses yet remain largely within the same spaces where they first arrive. Thirdly, as de Certeau's ordinary man who walks the city while engaged in everyday activities such as, shopping, going to places of employment, to places of education, etc. I theorise mobility as a way of making do and an inhabited space that migrants mobilise in contestation with the broader strategic entities such as the City of Johannesburg's regulatory platforms, South African citizens and other migrants. I also argue that, for migrants to engage in different mobility cycles and deploy mobility as a tactical resource, particular dispositions are necessary. I refer to these dispositions as the transnational migrant habitus, which operates within a transnational social field constituted by socio-cultural factors in both South Africa and Zimbabwe. Both, the transnational habitus and the transnational social field are hybrid social formations that are not reducible to either the Zimbabwean or the South African contexts that are responsible for their genesis and ongoing reconstitution. Methodologically, I employed a mixed methods research design, which refers to a procedure by which the researcher mixes two or more methods with different meta-theoretical assumptions in a single study in order to understand a research problem. I used mixed methods because I needed sufficient breadth to explore the diversity of Zimbabwean migrant experiences and spatial decision-making, but also sufficient depth to uncover the reasons for behaviours and decisions.

Повний текст джерелаWhat are Iskashitaa Refugee Harvesting Network’s roles and objectives in teaching English as a Second Language to adult refugees in the Tucson community? How can we create a classroom environment that builds their language acquisition while promoting self-sufficiency? To inquire into these questions, interviews were conducted with adult refugee students who attend the classes, anecdotal records were kept of the ESL teachers’ weekly reflections and classroom observations were performed. Iskashitaa’s ESL classes should provide a space for English language acquisition, assisting in the acculturation process through introducing material that is based on life-skills, with the teachers serving as a cultural broker, advocate and friend and finally, introducing the adult refugees to the community through volunteer activities with Iskashitaa. There is a need for more inquiry and discussion about the pre-literate refugee population, especially in effective teaching strategies, curriculum ideas and a better understanding of literacy practices within the home. These are matters that merit a larger discussion by people who work in education and with refugees, as feedback would be beneficial from all who work with refugees and can recommend what they have observed, experienced and envision to help in the language acquisition, self-sufficiency and acculturation process for refugees.

Повний текст джерелаIn this work, we present the elements which in our eyes authorize the constitution of the specificity of the category of ‘refugee’. For this, we base ourselves on the monograph of two refugee camps. The first one is camp Dadaab, which is situated in Kenya and mainly hosts Somali refugees. Ethiopians, Eritreans, Sudanese and people from other nationalities also find shelter there. The second one is camp Nkondo, in Democratic Republic of Congo, and mostly hosts people having fled Angola when war broke out again in 1998 in the provinces of Zaire and Uige. Both are managed by U.N.H.R.C., different humanitarian organizations taking in charge the implementation of the infrastructures and the activities as decided by the U.N. agency. We completed these studies by an analysis of the process of repatriation of Angolan refugees which started in June 2003 and officially ended on March 27th 2007. The camp constitutes a particular territory. Neither city nor shutting-in place, it is defined by the practices of the social agents at work, that is the refugees and the agents of the humanitarian organizations. Two dimensions can help understand the camp more precisely: its specific temporality, as perceived differently according to the status of the person, and its multiscalar transterritoriality, referring to the fact that agents at work in the camp represent different territorial scales. The territory of the camp allows us to define the category of “refugee” not only as used by people belonging to this category but also by the employees of the humanitarian agencies. The way the former population is then divided into groups to facilitate its management also participates to its interpretation by social agents. Documents issued in reference to this category of ‘refugee’, and which prove one fits the description, also contribute in the production of this category. The latter therefore not only has “anthropological” validity, but it also has a legal dimension since the papers proving the passage in a U.N.H.C.R camp and issued by aid agencies enable access to completely legal identities on the juridical plan. Observations made around the border, during the repatriation of Angolan refugees but also during everyday life in the camp, reinforce the idea of a construction of the category of “refugee” not only in a specific locality yet also during the displacement/s.

Повний текст джерелаAufgrund der Syrienkrise wurden in 2012 mehrere Flüchtlingscamps in Jordanien geöffnet, um der steigenden, von dem Konflikt betroffenen, Anzahl an Menschen zu helfen. Die Lebensräume für Flüchtlinge, egal ob Flüchtlingscamps oder andere Marginalsiedlungen (urban informalities), unterliegen der Herausforderung in einem „permanenten Zwischenzustand“ (permanent temporariness) zu verbleiben. Innerhalb dieser Zeit entwickeln sich diese Räume durch soziale Raumproduktion (social production of space) in unerforschte urbane (stadtähnliche) Gebiete. Im Rahmen dieser Forschungsarbeit wird der Prozess, innerhalb dessen sich Flüchtlingscamps zu stadtähnlichen Räumen entwickeln, beispielhaft am Fall des Flüchtlingscamps Zaatari aufgezeigt. Im Konkreten wird hinterfragt wie das Zusammenspiel menschlichen Handelns und Struktur zur Raumproduktion und schließlich zu stadtähnlichen Gebilden führt. Al-Souq, die wichtigste Handelsstraße in Zaatari, wird als Studienobjekt herangezogen, um die Wahrnehmungen der Akteure zu beleuchten. Diese Studie folgt einem explorativen Ansatz mit narrativer Analyse. Die erhobenen Daten werden mittels einer thematischen (thematic analysis) und performativen Analyse (performative analysis) ausgewertet, um das Zusammenspiel der zwei genannten Kategorien im Hinblick auf die Raumproduktion zu untersuchen. Die Haupterkenntnisse der Studie zeigen sowohl eine schöpferische Außergewöhnlichkeit welche die Raumproduktion ermöglicht als auch eine daraus folgende Inklusion der Flüchtlinge im Camp durch ein Gefühl der Zugehörigkeit. Ferner zeigt die Auftretende räumliche Konstruktion von Al-Souq, dass Flüchtlinge Handlungsfähigkeit besitzen und herstellen und somit als „active Agents“ verstanden werden können. Aufbauend auf beiden Ergebnissen kann somit geschlussfolgert werden, dass zu der traditionell existierenden Humanitären Perspektive, in der Camps als temporär und Flüchtlinge als hilfebedürftige Opfer gesehen werden, ein alternatives Verständnis zu präferieren ist.
