近年来,乌干达境内的索马里人口急剧增加。这一激增反映了索马里人在东非流动历史上的新发展,这种发展是由危机和机遇共同塑造的,并由此产生了复杂的跨国和跨地区战略。在这篇文章中,我们提请注意这些战略,以了解在坎帕拉的索马里移民网络的连续性和变化,突出乌干达作为一个安全的避风港,并作为整个地区和其他地区向上的社会流动和业务扩张的垫脚石的双重意义。通过描述的需求和愿望驱动的索马里难民,学生和企业家的流动性和生计战略的纠缠,我们认为,在乌干达的索马里社区在过去30年的历史轨迹已经形成的相互作用的预先存在的联系和体制框架所定义的捐助者为导向的政策和总统的赞助组合。我们确定了三个时刻,穆塞韦尼的能力,以“管理捐助者的看法”有影响的经济,人口和政治配置的索马里散居在乌干达:20世纪90年代的经济自由化; 2006年难民法;和2007年部署乌干达人民国防军在乌干达。
Recent years have seen a dramatic increase in the Somali population in Uganda. This spike reflects a new development in the history of Somali mobility in East Africa, shaped both by crises and by opportunities, from which sophisticated transnational and translocal strategies have emerged. In this article, we draw attention to these strategies to understand continuity and change in Somali migrant networks in Kampala, highlighting the dual significance of Uganda both as a safe haven and as a stepping stone for upward social mobility and business expansion across the region and beyond. By describing the entanglement of needs and aspirations driving the mobility and livelihood strategies of Somali refugees, students and entrepreneurs, we argue that the historical trajectory of the Somali community in Uganda over the past 30 years has been shaped by the interaction of pre-existing linkages and an institutional framework defined by a mix of donor-oriented policies and presidential patronage. We identify three moments in which Museveni’s ability to ‘manage donors’ perceptions’ has had implications for the economic, demographic and political configuration of the Somali diaspora in Uganda: the economic liberalisation of the 1990s; the 2006 Refugee Act; and the 2007 deployment of UPDF in Uganda.
