全球南北之间的研究合作在强迫移民研究方面有着悠久的历史，在这种研究关系中对权力关系的讨论也长期存在。我们是跨越全球南北鸿沟的两名研究人员，本文反映了我们在“叙利亚难民研究综合体”中导航研究行业的尝试。我们讨论了我们为跨越南北鸿沟和伙伴之间更公平的研究合作开辟空间的尝试。我们揭示了现有的权力动态和与之相关的系统，例如制度约束、资金法规、预算限制和后殖民权力动态的残余。然后，我们思考这些动态如何帮助维持北方在研究和知识生产周期中的霸权。我们认为，合作研究可以从关注研究中涉及的关系方面的反思性实践中获益。这可以通过一种“友谊的方式”而不是“打勾式的指导方针”来实现。
Research collaborations between global north and south have a long history in studies of forced migration, and discussions of power relations in such research relationships have existed for a long time. We are two researchers working across the global south–north divide, and this article reflects on our attempt to navigate the research industry amid the ‘Syrian refugee research complex’. We discuss our attempt to carve out a space for more equitable research collaborations across the north–south divide and between partners. We unpack the existing power dynamics and the systems attached to them, e.g. institutional constraints, funding regulations, budget restrictions, and residues of post-colonial power dynamics. We then reflect on how these dynamics help to maintain the north’s hegemony in the research and knowledge production cycle. We argue that collaborative research can gain from a reflective practice that focuses on the relational aspects involved in research. This can be achieved through a ‘friendship approach’ rather than ‘tick-the-box guidelines’.
