Abstract

Through a qualitative case study with Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) sponsorship groups and former refugee newcomers, we adopt a reflexive, relational, and systemic lens (Bourdieu) to analyze the institutional and interpersonal relationships in the Private Sponsorship of Refugees (PSR) Program, and more specifically, the ways in which MCC Ontario’s sponsorship program invigorates or frustrates dynamics of social inclusion. We situate the institutional relations of the PSR Program as nested social fields and sub-fields, revealing complementary and competing systems of capital that direct explicit and implicit visions for “success” in MCC sponsorships. A peculiar Mennonite/MCC social field and structure of capital generates institutional and social tensions, yet an ambivalent disposition or divided habitus presents possibilities for seeing, understanding, and challenging dynamics of social exclusion.
难民融合与包容的反思性观点:门诺派中央委员会与私人赞助难民计划的个案研究
通过Mennonite Central Committee (MCC)赞助团体和前难民新移民的定性案例研究,我们采用反思、关系和系统的视角(Bourdieu)来分析难民私人赞助(PSR)项目中的制度和人际关系,更具体地说,是MCC Ontario的赞助项目促进或阻碍社会包容的方式。我们将PSR项目的制度关系定位为嵌套的社会领域和子领域,揭示了资本的互补和竞争系统,这些系统直接指导了世纪挑战集团赞助中“成功”的明确和隐含愿景。一个特殊的门诺派/世纪挑战集团的社会领域和资本结构产生了制度和社会的紧张关系,然而一种矛盾的倾向或分裂的习惯提供了看到、理解和挑战社会排斥动态的可能性。
