The question of belonging and acceptance in the United Kingdom has become an increasingly politicised arena culminating in the implementation of highly exclusionary policies to further delineate those who belong and those who do not. Since 2010, the UK Government's decision to invoke policies under the hostile environment have worked to challenge the ability of migrants and migrant communities to take up space in British society. These policies, envisioned as a tool of deterring unwanted migration, have produced restrictive and discriminative approaches towards migrants evidenced recently through the expulsion of individuals of the Windrush Generation, the steady increase in revoking citizenship, continued deportation flights and the drive to make life in the UK as unbearable as possible for those deemed illegitimate and unwelcome.Understanding the effect, if any, national immigration policies have in shaping a migrant's sense of space and belonging in society is a question relevant to current dynamics in the UK and internationally. Through an analysis of migration policy and its intersection with the in-country experience of recent and settled migrants, I will attempt to understand if and how restrictive hostile migration policies have impacted Ethiopian migrant's sense of identity and belonging within the UK. As immigration policy becomes more exclusionary and limiting, appreciating how this trend impacts on the migrant's perception of belonging in society is important to our understanding of self and identity.This research will attempt to look at an often under researched population in the UK - Ethiopians - and attempt to appreciate the individual's perspective of belonging and inclusion under shifting policy stances. By researching the lived experiences of migration and settlement in the UK for Ethiopian migrants - this research will look at how navigating the immigration system in the UK at various standpoints has impacted on the integration and sense of belonging for this migrant group.

在联合王国，归属和接受的问题已成为一个日益政治化的竞技场，最终导致实施高度排斥性的政策，以进一步划分属于和不属于的人。自2010年以来，联合王国政府决定在敌对环境下援引政策，这对移民和移民社区在英国社会占据空间的能力提出了挑战。这些政策被设想为阻止不受欢迎的移民的工具，但最近对移民采取了限制性和歧视性的做法，例如驱逐温德鲁什一代的个人，撤销公民身份的人数稳步增加，继续驱逐出境的航班，以及使那些被认为是非法和不受欢迎的人在英国的生活尽可能难以忍受。国家移民政策在塑造移民的空间感和社会归属感方面的作用是一个与英国和国际当前动态相关的问题。通过分析移民政策及其与最近定居移民的国内经验的交集，我将试图了解是否以及如何限制性的敌对移民政策影响了埃塞俄比亚移民的身份感和归属感在英国。随着移民政策变得越来越排斥和限制，欣赏这种趋势如何影响移民的归属感在社会上是很重要的自我和identity.This研究将试图看看在英国的一个经常研究的人口-英国人-并试图欣赏个人的归属感和包容性的角度下不断变化的政策立场的理解。通过研究埃塞俄比亚移民在英国移民和定居的生活经历-这项研究将探讨如何在英国的移民制度在不同的立场上对这个移民群体的融入和归属感产生影响。
