摘要

自2016年以来，中非国家喀麦隆经历了其历史上最严重的冲突和人道主义危机，原因是对英语使用者的系统性边缘化和歧视以及国家形式的变化。本研究旨在探讨以英语为母语的人对歧视的看法，他们对国家形式(联邦和独立)的态度，以及对歧视的看法在多大程度上预测了他们对国家形式的态度。在对314名说英语的人的抽样调查中，结果显示，对国家形式的态度不一，因为支持独立和支持联邦制之间没有显著差异。此外，调查结果还显示，以英语为母语的人对歧视的感知明显较高。最后，在控制了年龄、教育水平和经济地位的影响后，结果显示，对歧视的感知与支持独立显著相关，而与支持联邦无关。并讨论了进一步研究的意义和途径。

Independence or a federation? Perceived discrimination as an antecedent of Anglophone Cameroonians’ attitude towards the form of state

Since 2016, the Central African country of Cameroon has been experiencing the worst conflict and humanitarian crisis in its history over the systematic marginalization and discrimination of Anglophones and a change in the form of state. This study sets out to explore Anglophone’s perception of discrimination, their attitudes towards the form of state (federation and independence), and the extent to which the perception of discrimination predicts attitudes towards the form of state. In a sample of 314 Anglophones, results showed that attitudes towards the form of state were mixed as there was no significant difference between support for independence and support for a federation. In addition, results indicated that the perception of discrimination among Anglophones was significantly high. Lastly, while controlling for the effect of age, level of education, and economic status, the results showed that the perception of discrimination was significantly related to support for independence but not support for a federation. Implications and avenues for further research are discussed as well.

期刊介绍： There is currently a burgeoning interest in both sociology and politics around questions of ethnicity, nationalism and related issues such as identity politics and minority rights. Ethnicities is a cross-disciplinary journal that will provide a critical dialogue between these debates in sociology and politics, and related disciplines. Ethnicities has three broad aims, each of which adds a new and distinctive dimension to the academic analysis of ethnicity, nationalism, identity politics and minority rights.
