My project focuses on the current refugee crisis in Calais, answering the following question; what are the reasons for the police violence that has been, and continues to be, directed towards refugees in Calais? I will consider the impact of this violence, such as human rights and mental health implications, and how state violence against refugees could be reduced. There have been refugee camps in and around Calais for two decades, and although the 'Jungle' was destroyed in 2016, there remains some several hundred refugees in the area. These refugees have faced, and are facing, violence and intimidation from the French CRS Police in Calais; this has been well-documented and I witnessed it first hand as an undergraduate when researching and volunteering as part of my dissertation.Despite this violence not being a recent phenomenon, there is very limited understanding as to why the violence occurs and what this means for human rights research. My project will answer four sub-questions to address this: 1) Is the violence necropolitical? 2) Which political relationships shape the CRS Police? 3) Is there a politics of fear? 4) What does the violence mean for the refugees?I am of the belief that there will be no single answer to explain the violence. There is a complex socio-political environment both locally and globally surrounding refugees and immigration, and this project aims to unpick and understand the various factors surrounding the situation in Calais. We live in a world where populism and right-wing beliefs are becoming more prevalent in our politics and societies, whilst media reinforces fear of the unknown and fear of 'migrants'. These are some possible factors to consider when understanding how the state violence is 'permitted.' This project will involve undertaking overseas fieldwork. I will be liaising with organisations in Calais, such as 'Care 4 Calais' and 'Calais Migrant Solidarity' and volunteering with them whilst gaining fieldwork data. I am proposing a minimum of one week every other month in Calais during the first and second year of my PhD, ensuring a minimum of 12 weeks spent in Calais itself. The situation in Calais changes frequently so fieldwork taking place over this longer period will allow me to capture this constantly changing picture. I also would benefit from difficult language training. Learning Arabic, the dominant language spoken by refugees in Calais, would allow me to engage better with them in conversation and support. I propose a ten-week intensive course during the first term of my PhD, taking place at the University of Exeter.This will be a critical piece of research for human rights and security, whilst also benefitting the field of socio-politics. This project could have a wide impact academically and within NGO and government circles, and gain the refugees more attention required to have their human rights better protected. This is an issue which cannot be ignored, nor the impact of it denied, any longer.

我的项目主要关注加来目前的难民危机，回答以下问题；警察对加莱难民使用暴力的原因是什么？我将考虑这种暴力的影响，例如对人权和心理健康的影响，以及如何减少国家对难民的暴力。20年来，加莱及其周边地区一直有难民营，尽管“丛林”在2016年被摧毁，但该地区仍有数百名难民。这些难民过去和现在都在加来面对法国CRS警察的暴力和恐吓；这是有据可查的，我在本科时就亲眼目睹了这一点，当时我在做论文的研究和志愿者工作。尽管这种暴力不是最近才发生的现象，但人们对暴力发生的原因及其对人权研究的意义的理解非常有限。我的项目将回答四个子问题来解决这个问题：1)暴力是necropolitical吗？2)什么政治关系塑造了CRS警察？3)有恐惧政治吗？4)暴力对难民意味着什么？我相信没有单一的答案可以解释暴力。在当地和全球范围内，围绕难民和移民都有一个复杂的社会政治环境，这个项目旨在解开和理解围绕加莱局势的各种因素。我们生活在一个民粹主义和右翼信仰在我们的政治和社会中变得越来越普遍的世界，而媒体则强化了对未知和“移民”的恐惧。这些都是在理解国家暴力如何被“允许”时需要考虑的一些可能因素。这个项目将包括进行海外实地考察。我将与加莱的组织联络，如“关心加莱”和“加莱移民团结”，并与他们一起做志愿者，同时获得实地调查数据。我建议在我的博士学位的第一年和第二年至少每隔一个月在加来度过一个星期，确保在加来度过至少12周。加莱的情况经常变化，因此在较长时间内进行的实地工作将使我能够捕捉到不断变化的画面。我也会从高难度的语言训练中受益。阿拉伯文是加来难民的主要语言，学习阿拉伯文可以让我更好地与他们交谈并提供支持。我建议在我博士的第一学期上一个十周的强化课程，在埃克塞特大学进行。这将是人权和安全研究的一个关键部分，同时也有利于社会政治领域。这个项目可以在学术界、非政府组织和政府内部产生广泛的影响，使难民得到更多的关注，使他们的人权得到更好的保护。这是一个不能再忽视的问题，也不能再否认它的影响。
