Hostels, Hosts and Hospitality: A Social and Cultural History of Migrant Temporary Accommodation in Australia Since the Second World War

由于该项目促进了对移民经历、社会关系和由此产生的结果、抵达后的安置服务、国家作为“东道国”的作用以及国家和移民身份的复杂性的更深入了解，因此该项目加强了澳大利亚的社会结构以及解释和参与其区域和全球环境的能力。区域和全球移徙的经历往往导致严重脱节的过程，这既迫切需要建立一种连贯一致的身份，也造成了具体困难。 这项研究有助于理解对地方和归属感的焦虑，以及我们今天如何解释和应对这些挑战。

Because it promotes a deeper understanding of migrant experience, the social relations and outcomes that derive from that experience, on-arrival settlement services, the role of the nation as 'host', and the complexity of national and immigrant identities, this project strengthens Australia's social fabric and capacity to interpret and engage with its regional and global environment. The experience of regional and global migration, often entailing processes of acute disjuncture, enjoins both an urgent need for, and specific difficulties in, the creation of a coherent identity. This study contributes to an understanding of anxieties about place and belonging and how we might interpret and engage such challenges today.
