In this book I make use of concepts such as collective Identity Identity construction Migration as discursive resource and ethnicity in tackling the question of how Identity is constructed by the interviewees in their interactions with the researchers.
Perspectivele teoretice care leaga identitatea si migratia prezentate aici sunt asimilarea si transnationalismul si desi din directii diferite ambele se refera la aspecte precum integrarea si abordarea granitelor fie ele politice sociale sau psihologice..
Practic prezinta migratia si identitatea ca doua concepte inrudite si exploreaza modul in care cea din urma este redefinita constant in raport cu prima.
In schimb este o propunere de a explora discursurile si naratiunile despre migratie si schimbarile in diferite definitii sociale efectuate in cadrul acestora.
Cartea nu se concentreaza pe migratie ca fenomen si nu o plaseaza in relatii cauzale cu starile de fapt.
Avand in vedere aceasta orientare analitica folosirea ca introducere a cuvintelor si povestea unui migrant dintre cei ale caror voci le prezint si le discut mi s-a parut doar fireasca.
Mai precis se evidentiaza o anumita parte a acestui cadru constructionist rolul jucat de migratie ca concept adus de intervievati in fluxul de discutii pentru a defini categoriile sociale sau in vocabularul teoriei identitatii sociale in-grupurile si in afara grupurilor. - In aceasta carte folosesc concepte precum identitatea colectiva constructia identitatii migratia ca resursa discursiva si etnia pentru a aborda problema modului in care este construita identitatea de catre cei intervievati in interactiunile lor cu cercetatorii.
The theoretical perspectives that link Identity and Migration presented here are assimilation and transnationalism and albeit from different directions they both relate to issues such as integration and dealing with borders be they political social or psychological.
It basically brings forward Migration and Identity as two related concepts and explores how the latter is constantly redefined in reference to the former.
Instead it is a proposition to explore discourses and narratives of Migration and the shifts in various social definitions performed within them.
The book is not focused on Migration as phenomenon and it does not place it in causal relations to states of facts.
Given this analytical orientation using as introduction the words and story of a migrant among those whose voices I present and discuss seemed only natural.
More specifically a certain part of this constructionist setting is emphasized the role played by Migration as concept brought by interviewees into the discussion flow in order to define social categories or in social Identity theory s vocabulary in-groups and out-groups.
