目前,全世界越来越多的难民居住在城市地区,必须考虑到他们获得适当住房、教育和就业机会的权利。在欧洲联盟,一些国家收紧了移民政策,并采取了将难民分散到城市环境的分散计划。然而,很少有人知道的情况下,难民一旦他们搬进永久性住所在这些城市,他们如何科普,他们是否留下来或move on.This探讨了分散难民到城市地区的影响,通过借鉴的案例研究,难民生活在格拉斯哥,一个主要的分散网站的难民在英国。它揭示了难民所面临的独特挑战的多样性和复杂性,包括在家庭和社区内。四股的政策影响流从这一点:有必要促进难民身份在城市地区的重要性,确保保护免受种族骚扰,需要多样化的方法来维持租赁和难以预测的影响'没有选择'的分散政策。
Abstract An increasing proportion of refugees worldwide now live in urban spaces, where their rights to adequate shelter, education and employment opportunities must be considered. In the European Union, a number of countries have tightened their immigration policies and adopted dispersal schemes which disperse refugees to urban environments. However, little is known about the circumstances of refugees once they have moved into permanent accommodation in these cities, how they cope and whether they stay or move on. This paper explores the impact of dispersing refugees to urban areas by drawing on a case study of refugees living in Glasgow, a major dispersal site for refugees in the UK. It reveals the diversity and complexity of the unique challenges that refugees face, including within the home and the neighbourhood. Four strands of policy implications flow from this: the need to facilitate refugee identification in urban areas; the importance of ensuring protection from racial harassment; the need for diversified approaches towards tenancy sustainment and the difficulty of predicting the impact of ‘no-choice’ dispersal policies.
