基于对居住在苏格兰的中东欧(CEE)移民移民和定居经历的广泛定性研究，本文考察了情感和物质安全(IN)交叉在移民家庭关于长期定居的决策和经历中的作用。本文质疑对“家庭”或“安全”的固定或给定的理解，并探讨它们之间复杂的、有时甚至是矛盾的关系。在这样做的过程中，它对家庭移徙领域的现有研究作出了若干重大和相互关联的理论和经验贡献。通过对家庭与安全之间关系的批判性分析，文章对家庭团聚、分离和重组过程与移民和定居决策之间的联系提供了细致入微的见解。对家庭关系以及移徙和定居过程所带来的相互交错、有时相互矛盾的情感和物质支持、义务和脆弱性的形式进行了批判性的分析，将社会保障的理论框架和对家庭的理解结合在一起，认为家庭是“创造的”而不是“给予的”。最后，对安全的时间方面以及移民生活的跨国方面给予关注，为理解与移徙和定居有关的决策过程的开放性提供了新的途径，特别是在涉及多个决策者的情况下。
Drawing on extensive qualitative research into experiences of migration and settlement among Central and East European (CEE) migrants living in Scotland, this article examines the role of intersecting emotional and material (in)securities in migrant families’ decision-making regarding and experiences of longer-term settlement. The article queries fixed or given understandings of either ‘family’ or ‘security’ and explores the complex and sometimes contradictory relationship between them. In so doing, it makes a number of significant and interconnected theoretical and empirical contributions to existing research in the field of family migration. Through a critical analysis of the relationship between family and (in)security the article offers nuanced insight into the ways in which family processes of reunion, separation and (re)formation link to decisions regarding migration and settlement. The intersecting and sometimes contradictory forms of emotional and material support, obligation and vulnerability which both family relations and processes of migration and settlement entail are critically analysed by bringing together theoretical frameworks of social (in)security and understandings of family as ‘made’ rather than ‘given’. Finally, attention given to the temporal aspects of (in)security, as well as the transnational aspects of migrants’ lives, provides new ways of understanding the open-endedness of decision-making processes relating to migration and settlement, especially where these involve multiple decision-makers.
