Abstract

Abstract This article delivers a comprehensive review of the English-language literature concerning the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, transsexual, and queer (LGBTQ) refugees and asylum-seekers. Through an incisive synthesis and analysis, it identifies five pivotal themes: 1) journey and settlement; 2) legislation, policy, and charitable intervention; 3) health; 4) creative expression; and 5) religion, faith, and spirituality. This analysis uncovers gaps in the existing body of knowledge, charting innovative paths for future research and policy. This work transcends the boundaries of a traditional scholarly review to offer actionable recommendations aimed at guiding policy and practice. This involves pushing for strategies that are not just inclusive, but also rooted in overcoming Western-centric approaches to gender and sexual identities.

关于LGBTQ难民和寻求庇护者的文献趋势和缺口的批判

摘要:本文对有关女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋、跨性别、变性和酷儿(LGBTQ)难民和寻求庇护者经历的英语文献进行了全面的回顾。通过深刻的综合和分析，它确定了五个关键主题:1)旅程和定居;2)立法、政策和慈善干预;3)健康;4)创造性表达;还有宗教、信仰和灵性。这一分析揭示了现有知识体系中的空白，为未来的研究和政策指明了创新的道路。这项工作超越了传统学术评论的界限，提供了旨在指导政策和实践的可操作建议。这包括推动战略，这些战略不仅具有包容性，而且植根于克服以西方为中心的性别和性身份方法。

期刊介绍： The Refugee Survey Quarterly is published four times a year and serves as an authoritative source on current refugee and international protection issues. Each issue contains a selection of articles and documents on a specific theme, as well as book reviews on refugee-related literature. With this distinctive thematic approach, the journal crosses in each issue the entire range of refugee research on a particular key challenge to forced migration. The journal seeks to act as a link between scholars and practitioners by highlighting the evolving nature of refugee protection as reflected in the practice of UNHCR and other major actors in the field.
