Doctoral Dissertation Research Displacement Consent

项目摘要

This doctoral dissertation research project examines the dynamics surrounding the resettlement of internally displaced people (IDPs), focusing on understanding the consent to voluntarily resettle in urban places. IDPs result from many actions including forced removal from land for the extraction of resources, and most resettlement is forced and into alternative rural spaces. This project looks at voluntary resettlement into urban areas. Methods consist of a combination of mixed-methods (participant observation, surveys and interviews) as well as participatory film-making. By examining complex forces in-depth this research will contribute a nuanced understanding of contemporary social transformations taking place in locations with limited economic development. The investigators with work collaboratively with local organizations and as a Doctoral Dissertation Research Improvement award, this award will provide support to enable a promising student to establish a strong independent research career.Resettled populations have typically faced enormous social, psychological, and economic hardships, which has been widely documented by scientists studying resettlement policies and outcomes. In recent decades, rural land acquisition for large-scale agriculture and natural resource production (e.g. mining, oil extraction, hydroelectric development) have accelerated human displacement and resettlement in many locations. Scientists who study internally displaced persons (IDPs) continue to focus primarily on forced resettlement, usually to rural areas, rather than voluntary resettlement programs to urban areas. This study will shed light on the factors that shape consent to urban resettlement. It will account for social, economic, political, and ecological factors shaping IDP consent. In particular, the study will investigate three broad sets of factors: 1) political pressures on communities; 2) pre-existing pressures on rural economies and eco-systems; and 3) desires for social mobility through urban resettlement. The research methodology also features an innovative approach to social research by implementing participatory filmmaking among participating IDPs. Although this doctoral dissertation research project will focus on case material from Ecuador, the research will provide new insights and approaches for dealing with the resettlement of internally displaced people in many other countries, including the United States.

该博士论文研究项目研究了国内流离失所者（IDP）重新安置的动态，重点是了解自愿在城市地区重新安置的同意。国内流离失所者是由许多行动造成的，包括为开采资源而被迫离开土地，大多数重新安置是被迫的，并进入替代的农村空间。该项目着眼于自愿重新安置到城市地区。方法包括混合方法（参与者观察、调查和访谈）以及参与式电影制作的组合。通过深入研究复杂的力量，这项研究将有助于对经济发展有限地区发生的当代社会转型有细致入微的了解。研究人员与当地组织合作，作为博士论文研究改进奖，该奖项将为有前途的学生建立强大的独立研究生涯提供支持。移民人口通常面临着巨大的社会、心理和经济困难，研究移民政策和结果的科学家已广泛记录了这一点。近几十年来，为大规模农业和自然资源生产（例如采矿、石油开采、水力发电开发）而征用农村土地，加速了许多地方的人口流离失所和重新安置。研究国内流离失所者（IDP）的科学家仍然主要关注强迫重新安置（通常是农村地区），而不是自愿安置到城市地区的计划。这项研究将揭示影响城市移民同意的因素。它将考虑影响国内流离失所者同意的社会、经济、政治和生态因素。特别是，该研究将调查三大因素：1）社区的政治压力； 2）农村经济和生态系统原有的压力； 3）通过城市移民实现社会流动的愿望。该研究方法还包括通过在参与的国内流离失所者中实施参与式电影制作来进行社会研究的创新方法。尽管该博士论文研究项目将重点关注厄瓜多尔的案例材料，但该研究将为处理包括美国在内的许多其他国家的境内流离失所者的重新安置问题提供新的见解和方法。
