Abstract

Abstract:

Based on two case studies of immigrants from North Macedonia to Vienna, this article sheds light on the dynamics of kinship in the migration process with regard to immigration, settlement and post-migration. The authors argue that the embeddedness in close trans-local social networks facilitates the access to accommodation and jobs; it also enables a certain degree of psychosocial well-being through mutual support and appears to be advantageous when setting up businesses and homeland associations. By placing kinship at the center of attention, it is essential to acknowledge its cultural diversity in order to avoid western-centric concepts of kinship that differ from concepts predominant in parts of southeastern Europe.

论移民过程中的亲属关系动态：奥地利北马其顿移民历史人类学研究的一些视角

摘要：本文基于对从北马其顿到维也纳的移民的两个案例研究，揭示了移民过程中亲属关系在移民、定居和移民后方面的动态变化。作者认为，嵌入紧密的跨地方社会网络有利于获得住宿和工作，还能通过相互支持获得一定程度的社会心理健康，在建立企业和家乡协会时似乎也很有利。通过将亲缘关系置于关注的中心，必须承认其文化多样性，以避免以西方为中心的亲缘关系概念与在东南欧部分地区占主导地位的概念不同。
