We are here to stay Inna Inglan: The role of Immigration Policies in the 'Un-Homing' of British Windrush Descendants.

鉴于通过2014年的敌对环境政策，“温德鲁什一代”成员被错误地剥夺了公民身份，人们对1948年至1971年期间从前殖民地抵达英国的这群西印度群岛英国臣民的经历重新产生了兴趣（威廉姆斯，2020年）。但是，这对他们在英国出生的拥有公民身份的后代有什么影响呢？虽然他们的法律的地位并没有受到损害，这项研究问，有什么影响，他们的本体安全在他们的英国身份？研究的主要目的是询问这个问题，考虑种族化，移民立法在引发公民自我感知的国家认同的不安全感的作用;这将被称为“本体论不归乡”的过程。研究问题-什么是战后英国移民立法的作用在'本体论不归乡'英国，温德鲁什后裔？战后移民立法是如何发展到逐步限制温德鲁什一代及其后代的流动性和社会权利的？在英国温德鲁什后裔中，社会事件如何塑造民族认同中的本体论安全？理论框架-本体论安全涉及到一个人身份中的自我安全，这项研究建议将这一概念应用于那些非洲裔加勒比人后裔的经历，研究表明，他们通过不断发展的“安全网”受到国家控制。学术界认为，战后时期的特点是移民立法的扩散，将黑人，西印度群岛人排除在英国公民身份之外，同时为白色，英联邦公民留下种族化的“父系”公民身份漏洞（Hall，2014）。奖学金还表明，一个“移民”系统已经逐渐出现;刑事司法和移民系统的复杂婚姻（巴蒂亚，2020）。这些控制系统对居住在英国的西印度群岛散居者的高度宣传影响是，许多人面临着国内监禁和随后驱逐出境的“双重惩罚”，他们在年幼时离开或从未居住过的国家（汤森，2021）。因此，亲属和社区成员不得不为那些公民身份被剥夺的人辩护。虽然一些学者询问了这种控制系统的演变，但很少有人关注这种控制系统对那些通过剥夺公民身份和驱逐出境而身体上“无家可归”的英国出生亲属的本体论影响。因此，该项目将考虑不断变化的移民立法对后代的影响，对他们来说，英国是他们唯一的合法家园。方法-研究将利用主要和次要方法的三角测量来评估移民立法和生活身份之间的相互作用。这项研究将首先对国内移民立法的发展情况、所附评论以及对西印度群岛移民社群的影响进行社会法律分析。它将采用从1948年起的立法和Hansard出版物等来源;这一时期的特点是西印度群岛向英国的显著运动，以及频繁的立法举措来遏制这一解决方案。它还将利用非洲-加勒比血统开发的高质量资源，包括诗歌、音乐和社区出版物。研究的最后一部分将涉及对目前居住在英国的大约30名黑人和混合遗产后代和社区活动家的半结构化采访。从中获得的数据将用于探索不断演变的移民制度对民族认同感的影响，同时也考虑种族主义和政治事件的作用。

In light of the wrongful citizenship deprivation of members of the 'Windrush Generation' through the 2014 Hostile Environment policy, there has been a renewed interest in the experiences of this group of West Indian, British Subjects who arrived in the UK from the former colonies between 1948-71 (Williams, 2020). But what has the impact been on their British born descendants who have citizenship? While their legal status has not been jeopardised, this research asks, what has the impact been on their ontological security within their British Identity?The principal aim of the research is to interrogate this question by considering the role of racialised, immigration legislation in triggering insecurity within a citizens self-perceived national identity; a process which will be referred to as 'ontologically un-homing'. Research Questions - What is the role of post-war British Immigration legislation in 'ontologically un-homing' British, Windrush descendants? How has post-war immigration legislation developed to progressively limit the mobility and social rights of the Windrush Generation and their descendants? How do social occurrences shape ontological security within national identity, amongst British Windrush descendants? Theoretical Framework - Ontological security concerns the security of the self in one's identity, this research proposes to apply this concept to the experiences of those of Afro-Caribbean descent who, research suggests, have been subjected to state control through an evolving 'security agenda'. Scholarship suggests that the post-war period was characterised by a proliferation of immigration legislation, which excluded Black, West Indian people from British Citizenship, whilst leaving racialised 'patrial' loopholes to citizenship for white, Commonwealth Citizens (Hall, 2014). Scholarship also indicates that a system of 'Crimmigration' has gradually emerged; a complex marriage of the Criminal Justice and Immigration Systems (Bhatia, 2020). A highly publicised impact of these systems of control on those of the West Indian Diaspora living in Britain, is that many individuals have faced a 'double punishment' of domestic imprisonment and subsequent deportation, to countries which they left as young children or have never lived in (Townsend, 2021). Relatives and community members have thus felt compelled to advocate on behalf of those whose citizenship has been denied. Although some scholarship has interrogated the evolution of such systems of control, little focus has been placed on the ontological impact of this on the British-born relatives of those who have been physically 'un-homed' through citizenship deprivation and deportation. The project will thus consider the impact of changing immigration legislation on descendants, for whom Britain is their sole de jure home. Methodology - The research will draw upon a triangulation of primary and secondary methods to evaluate the interplay between immigration legislation and lived identity. The research will commence with a socio-legal analysis of developments in domestic immigration legislation, the accompanying commentary and the impact on those of the West Indian Diaspora. It will adopt sources such as legislation and Hansard publications from 1948-onwards; a period characterised by a notable West Indian movement to the UK, and frequent legislative initiatives to curb this settlement. It will also utilise qualitative sources developed by those of Afro-Caribbean lineage, including poetry, music and community publications. The final element of the research will involve semi-structured interviews with approximately 30 Black and Mixed-Heritage descendants and community activists who currently reside in Britain. The data from which will be used to explore the impact of an evolving immigration regime on a sense of national identity, whilst also considering the role of racism and political occurrences.
