这篇文章探讨了被迫移民如何以及为什么改变、使用和抛弃多重身份。本研究定位于建构主义范式。我们使用主题分析来分析通过与19名被迫移民的访谈收集的数据。我们发现，虽然个别移民可以作出审慎的选择，哪些身份与相关的，他们在这个过程中受到外部社会经济因素的限制，导致他们采用的身份，被认为是有利于导航新的社会制度。此外，被迫移民的身份建构还包括重要的语境性、交易性和情境性。我们的研究有助于文学移民身份的做法有关的耻辱与强迫移民身份和移民评价他们的接待在流亡中作为不体面的程度。此外，研究移民身份使研究人员能够理解身份的不同方面，就移民而言。未来的研究可能会抽取更大的样本来研究身份波动的其他影响因素，例如性别，教育，社交媒体，先前创伤的程度等。
The article examines how and why multiple identities are altered, used and discarded by forced migrants. The research is located in the constructivist paradigm. We used thematic analysis to analyse data gathered through interviews with nineteen forced migrants. We found that, though individual migrants can make deliberate choices about which identities to be associated with, they are constrained in the process by external socio-economic factors that lead them to adopt identities that are perceived to be advantageous to navigate the new social system. Moreover, the construction of forced migrants’ identity includes significant contextuality, transactionality and situatedness. Our research contributes to the literature on migrant identity practice concerning the stigma associated with forced migrant status and the extent to which migrants appraise their reception in exile as undignified. Additionally, examining migrant identities allows the researchers to apprehend the diverse facets of identity as far as migrants are concerned. Future research may draw a larger sample to examine other impactful dimensions of identity fluctuation, e.g. gender, education, social media, the extent of prior trauma, etc.
