Abstract

This article examines how lockdown measures have affected international students living in an international student dorm in Copenhagen. During the COVID-19 lockdown in Denmark from March to June, the dorm, which was previously considered a domestic space only, emerged as a closed circuit that collapsed into a single space living, work and leisure activities. The article shows that due to the lack of physical, mental and temporal demarcations between spaces of work and leisure, the dorm as a closed circuit has altered social and intimate relations. Drawing on concepts of non-places, home, and hyper-places, it argues that the life of international students was particularly disrupted by the COVID-19 lockdown.

本文探讨了封锁措施如何影响住在哥本哈根国际学生宿舍的国际学生。3月至6月，在丹麦新冠肺炎疫情封锁期间，原本只被认为是家庭空间的宿舍，变成了一个封闭的回路，变成了生活、工作、休闲的单一空间。这篇文章表明，由于工作和休闲空间之间缺乏身体、精神和时间的界限，宿舍作为一个封闭的电路已经改变了社会和亲密关系。根据“非场所”、“家”和“超场所”的概念，报告认为，国际学生的生活受到新冠肺炎疫情封锁的影响尤其严重。

期刊介绍： Anthropology in Action (AIA) is a peer-reviewed journal publishing articles, commentaries, research reports, and book reviews in applied anthropology. Contributions reflect the use of anthropological training in policy- or practice-oriented work and foster the broader application of these approaches to practical problems. The journal provides a forum for debate and analysis for anthropologists working both inside and outside academia and aims to promote communication amongst practitioners, academics and students of anthropology in order to advance the cross-fertilisation of expertise and ideas. Recent themes and articles have included the anthropology of welfare, transferring anthropological skills to applied health research, design considerations in old-age living, museum-based anthropology education, cultural identities and British citizenship, feminism and anthropology, and international student and youth mobility.
