Abstract
Denne afhandling undersøger, hvordan syriske flygtninge i Danmark oplever og skaber en følelse af tilhørsforhold, mens de lever med midlertidigt ophold, og hvordan det såkaldte 'paradigmeskifte' påvirker dette. Den udforsker, hvad tilhørsforhold betyder for deltagerne, hvordan det bliver til i praksis, og hvilke strategier de bruger for at håndtere usikkerhed og tilpasse sig hverdagen. Analysen tager højde for den nye lovgivning om midlertidigt ophold og muligheden for hjemsendelse, når forholdene i hjemlandet vurderes som stabile og sikre. Studiet er forankret i Nira Yuval-Davis’ teorier om tilhørsforhold og tilhørspolitik og anvender et intersektionelt perspektiv, der ser på, hvordan forskellige aspekter af identitet og social position spiller sammen. Undersøgelsen bygger på en kvalitativ tilgang med syv semistrukturerede interviews med syriske flygtninge.
This thesis examines how Syrian refugees in Denmark experience and build a sense of belonging while living with temporary residence, and how the so-called 'paradigm shift' affects this. It explores what belonging means to participants, how it is formed in everyday life, and the strategies they use to cope with uncertainty and adapt. The analysis considers the new law on temporary residence and the possibility of repatriation when conditions in the home country are deemed stable and safe. The study is guided by Nira Yuval-Davis’s theories of belonging and the politics of belonging, using an intersectional approach that looks at how different aspects of identity and social position interact. The research is based on a qualitative design with seven semi-structured interviews with Syrian refugees.
