Abstract

The paper makes visible and examines the failure of infrastructures of (im)mobility drawing attention to their entanglements that together shape everyday lives. It draws on the experiences of international students (IS) in the UK during the COVID-19 pandemic to firstly offer a reading of the pandemic as a crisis which exposed the already failing of the infrastructures that are supposed to sustain everyday lives. Secondly, it draws attention to the entangled infrastructures of finance and knowledge to show these connections and disconnections have always been tenuous and wrought with issues which the pandemic exposed but have always constituted the everyday lives of migrants such as IS. The paper closes by exploring the implications of these findings for future research.

国际学生(非)流动性基础设施的失败:COVID-19 案例
本文揭示并审视了(非)流动性基础设施的失效,提请人们注意它们共同塑造日常生活的纠葛。本文以 COVID-19 大流行期间在英国的留学生(IS)的经历为基础,首先将大流行视为一场危机,它暴露了本应维持日常生活的基础设施已经失灵。其次,本文提请人们注意金融和知识基础设施之间的纠葛,以表明这些联系和断裂一直都很脆弱,并存在着大流行病所暴露出的各种问题,但这些问题一直都构成了 IS 等移民的日常生活。最后,本文探讨了这些发现对未来研究的影响。
