有人认为，对于人类在太空中的移动来说，“移动性转向”有些过分庆祝。然而，对流动性的批判性研究驳斥了这一点，表明流动性的各种形式和方面如何与不平等的权力关系联系在一起。本文通过对 2011 年在英国记录的三段生活史访谈的深入分析，探讨了关于移民和流动性的争论。访谈的对象都是五六十岁的南亚裔男性，他们在未成年时移居英国，成年后在工厂工作了至少三年。这些故事的情感和感性打破了有关移民的标准比喻，有助于我们理解流动性、固定性、“种族”和阶级之间的关系。内在的历史视角表明，当一个曾经跨越国际边界移民的人回顾过去时，并不一定会认为这是他们一生中最重要的时刻；某人过去在民族国家内的活动对他们来说可能比他们进入民族国家的活动更重要；在某一点移动的人也可能在另一点被卡住，不情愿地一动不动；以及流动性和固定性的表征和物质性如何渗透并再现阶级不平等和种族主义。
It has been argued that the ‘mobility turn’ is overcelebratory regarding human movement across space. Yet, critical studies of mobilities have emerged that refute this, demonstrating how various forms and aspects of mobility are bound up with unequal power relations. This paper engages with debates over migration and mobility through an in-depth analysis of three life history interviews recorded in England in 2011. The subjects of the interviews are all men in their fifties and sixties of South Asian heritage, who moved to England as minors, and who, as adults, worked in factories for at least three years. The stories in all their affectivity and sensuousness disrupt standard tropes regarding migration and contribute to our understanding of the relations between mobility, fixity, ‘race’, and class. The built-in historical perspective shows how, looking back, someone who may once have migrated across inte rnational borders does not necessarily see that as the most significant moment in their life; how someone's past moveswithina nation-state may have greater significance to them than their movesintoit; how people who move at one point can also be stuck, reluctantly immobile, at another; and how both the representations and materiality of mobility and fixity are imbued with, and reproduce, class inequality and racisms.
