移徙对性别认同、规范和惯例的影响主要是从女性移徙者的角度来理解的。人们对移徙在谈判和重建男性身份方面所具有的潜力的关注要少得多。本文通过对伦敦从事低薪工作的男性移民进行的67次深度访谈,探讨了“移民项目”不同阶段男性身份的重塑,特别关注移民的原因,以及这些原因是如何被母国的性别意识形态和伦敦生活与工作的谈判所塑造的。该文件还提请注意,这些重新谈判本身的方式是由民族,种族和阶级的差异横切,从而构建一个更微妙的图片移动的男人和男性身份。
The impact of migration on gender identities, norms and conventions has been predominantly understood from the perspective of female migrants. Far less attention has been paid to the potential that migration entails for the negotiation and reconstruction of male identities. Drawing on sixty-seven in-depth interviews with male migrants employed in low-paid work in London, this paper explores the reworking of male identities at different stages of ‘the migration project’, focusing particularly upon the reasons extended for migration and how these are shaped by gender ideologies in home countries and negotiation of life and work in London. The paper also draws attention to ways in which these re-negotiations are themselves cross-cut by ethnic, racial and class differences, so constructing a more nuanced picture of mobile men and male identities.
