本文以乌干达北方南苏丹难民目前的存在为案例研究,探讨了不同形式的流动性如何使他们能够更好地科普流离失所造成的恶劣条件。基于广泛的实地研究,本文的结果表明,对于南苏丹难民来说,跨越边境可以增强权能,尽管这些复杂的策略不适合国际难民制度提出的相互排斥的“持久解决方案”。通过跨国透镜,它说明了不同形式的流动如何使难民能够坚持“正常生活”的某些方面,如就业,制定海关和访问亲人,模糊自愿和被迫移民之间的区别。这导致跨国网络的深化,因为南苏丹的大家庭发现其成员分散在乌干达和南苏丹的城镇中心、村庄、难民定居点以及非洲和其他地方的第三国。第三部分受访者称,在Adjumani选择的Adjumani是许多南方难民自行定居的地方。在最近的移民潮中,一些老的难民被安置在城里,直到今天,而他们在最近的移民潮中再次登记为难民。样本在性别方面是平衡的,包括来自14个不同种族的受访者,年龄均在23至67岁之间。抽样大多包括新的难民。
Taking the current presence of South Sudanese refugees in northern Uganda as a case-study, this paper explores how different forms of mobility enable them to better cope with the harsh conditions caused by their displacement. Based on exten-sive field research, the results of this article show how for South Sudanese refugees, crossing borders can be empowering, although these complex strategies do not fit within the mutually exclusive ‘durable solutions’ proposed by the international refugee regime. Looking through a transnational lens, it is illustrated how different forms of movement enable the refugees to hold on to certain aspects of ‘normal life’, such as being employed, enacting customs and visiting loved ones, blur-ring the distinction between voluntary and forced migration. This results in a deepening of transnational networks as the generally large South Sudanese families find their members dispersed across Ugandan and South Sudanese town centres, villages, refugee settlements and third countries in Africa and elsewhere. third part of the respondents refugees’, selected in Adjumani Adjumani is to many South refugees self-settled. the more recent arrivals, some old caseload refugeesaresettledintownuntiltoday,whiletheyregisteredthemselvesagainasrefugeesduringtherecentinflux.In a diversified sample, a purposive sampling technique was applied. the sample was balanced in terms of gender included respondents from 14 different ethnicities, all between 23 and 67-years-old. sample mostly includes new caseload refugees.
