摘要

本文调查了移民和寻求庇护者的在线连接和断开连接做法。文章对 2020 年 9 月至 11 月间接待移民和寻求庇护者的三个西西里接待中心进行了人种学调查。我们展示了移民如何在不同移民动机的驱使下,采取不同的移动连接和断开连接做法。我们认为,移民和寻求庇护者对移动连接和断开所赋予的不同情感意义,以及他们对其生活的公共和私人层面所赋予的不同价值,是这些实践的特征。通过对不同类别移民的移动连接和断开连接实践进行多角度描绘,本文还有助于:(1)媒体和移民研究,表明寻求庇护者和移民在在线连接实践和智能手机使用方面存在巨大差异;(2)断开连接研究,强调移民和寻求庇护者等非特权社会群体在断开连接实践中存在的细微差别。我们表明,他们无法采用典型的西方、城市和精英断开连接的形式;然而,他们也能够采用特定形式的断开连接,而保持联系则是他们能够采用的自相矛盾的断开连接形式。这篇文章旨在将断联研究置于不同的社会、政治、文化和地理环境中,并对其进行背景分析。

‘Disconnecting from my smartphone is a privilege I do not have’: Mobile connection and disconnection practices among migrants and asylum seekers in three migrant reception centres of Sicily
This article investigates online connection and disconnection practices among migrants and asylum seekers. It draws from an ethnography of three Sicilian reception centres that hosted migrants and asylum seekers between September and November 2020. We show how migrants, driven by different migratory motivations, enact different mobile connection and disconnection practices. We argue that these are characterised by the different affective meanings that migrants and asylum seekers attach to mobile connection and disconnection and by the different value they place on the public and private dimensions of their lives. By offering a multifaceted portrait of the mobile connection and disconnection practices of different categories of migrants, this article also contributes to: (1) media and migration studies, by showing that there are substantial differences in online connection practices and smartphone use between asylum seekers and migrants and (2) to disconnection studies, by highlighting the nuances that exist within disconnection practices among non-privileged social groups, such as migrants and asylum seekers. We show that they cannot afford to practise typically Western, urban and elitist forms of disconnection; however, they too are able to practise specific forms of disconnection, paradoxically afforded by staying connected. The article aims to contextualise and situate disconnection studies within different social, political, cultural and geographic contexts.
