本文的目的是调查社会心理过程导致的复杂模式的包容和排斥。根据莎拉·艾哈迈德的“被阻止”现象学理论,我们探讨了年轻人来到瑞典或生活在瑞典的经历。使用的经验材料包括四个战略性选择的案例研究。生活在新欧洲可以说是一种必须不断应对排斥/包容模式的经历。这些排斥/包容的模式随着时间的推移而变化。它们创造了新的社会纽带、用以科普偏见和歧视的战略以及新的身份。这四个案例表明,处理排斥问题的努力或多或少取得了成功。歧视和与众不同的感觉显然影响到年轻人的自尊和生活计划。缺乏融合不仅与种族和语言有关,而且与社会和体制结构的联系有关。
The purpose of the present article was to investigate social psychological processes leading to complex patterns of inclusion and exclusion. Following Sarah Ahmed’s theory of the phenomenology of ‘being stopped’, we explored young adults’ experiences of coming to or living in Sweden. The empirical material used consists of four strategically selected case studies. Living in the new Europe can be described as an experience of having to constantly deal with patterns of exclusion/inclusion. These patterns of exclusion/inclusion vary over time. They create new social bonds, strategies used to cope with prejudices and discrimination, and new identities. The four cases illustrated more or less successful attempts to deal with exclusion. Discrimination and the feeling of being different clearly affected young people’s self-esteem and life plans. Lack of integration is not only related to ethnicity and language, but also to connectedness to social and institutional structures.
