在本文中，我将探讨移民机构的规定以及移民的具体化的生活经验，以发展的身体作为一个意义的漩涡在位移过程中的分析。通过考察越南移民的身体既是客体又是施动者的方式，我将指出移民与更广泛的社会之间的关系是如何通过越南人的身体体验来感受和感知的。越南人的身体是如何被表征的，以及他们是如何被体验的，这两者之间的动态关系揭示了身体是一个主要的标记，它是来自内部和外部的差异，是经验和意义之间的中介。我将指出，主流媒体如何将越南人的身体塑造成被玷污的形象，从而维持了各种形式的排斥和疏远，这些都影响了越南人的身体的生活方式。因此，我探索的手段，通过该机构有特别的显着性时，试图了解在澳大利亚的移民身份的性质。
In this paper I will explore both the regulation of migrant bodies as well as the lived experience of migrant embodiment in order to develop an analysis of the body as a vortex of meaning in the displacement process. By examining the way in which the bodies of Vietnamese immigrants are simultaneously object and agent, I will indicate how the relations between migrants and the wider society are felt and sensed through the bodily experiences of Vietnamese people. The dynamic between how Vietnamese bodies are represented and how they are experienced reveals the body to be a predominant marker of difference from both within and without, the mediator between experience and signification. I will indicate how the dominant media construction of Vietnamese bodies as defiled has sustained forms of exclusion and distancing which have influenced the way that Vietnamese bodies are lived. I thus explore the means through which the body has particular salience when attempting to understand the nature of migrant identities in Australia.
