摘要

尽管人们普遍认为移民具有社会转型作用,但在有关环境和可持续性的主流讨论中,移民对其目的地地区可持续性转型的潜在贡献往往被忽视。在此,我们试图找出当前在个人、城市和国家范围内有关移民和可持续性的叙述。公共政策通常认为移民对可持续发展没有影响,甚至有负面影响。本研究的假设是,移民在城市目的地的可持续发展生活体验与社会中的主流论述和对移民人口的看法不同。我们利用对城市和瑞典国家层面的主要利益相关者进行的 21 次访谈数据、对瑞典马尔默市 895 名移民和非移民进行的态度调查,以及对瑞典当地和全国性报纸进行的媒体分析,检验并记录了这种差异。调查结果显示,与非移民相比,移民更广泛地参与了一系列可持续发展行动,从而为 "移民作为可持续发展行动者 "提供了新的见解。通过将个人规模的实践与城市和国家的可持续发展叙事进行对比,该研究揭示了移民在可持续发展进程中发挥变革作用的现有障碍和潜力,而这些障碍和潜力在主流政策论述中尚未得到认可。为了挖掘这一潜力,研究强调,不同规模的可持续发展政策应将多元化和移民作为实现可持续发展的基本组成部分。

Migrants as sustainability actors: Contrasting nation, city and migrant discourses and actions

Although it is widely recognized that migration is socially transformative, the potential contributions of migrants to transformations towards sustainability in their destination areas are often overlooked in mainstream discourse on environmentalism and sustainability. Here we seek to identify current narratives of migrants and sustainability across individual, urban, and national scales. Migrants are commonly framed in public policy as having no or even negative impacts on sustainability. The study hypotheses that the lived experience of sustainability by migrants within urban destinations differ from dominant discourses and perceptions of migrant populations within societies. We test and document such divergence using data from 21 interviews with key stakeholders from the city and Swedish national level, an attitudinal survey of 895 migrants and non-migrants in Malmö, Sweden; and a media analysis of local and national Swedish newspapers. Survey results show that migrants engage more extensively with a number of sustainability actions compared to non-migrants culminating in new insights on ‘migrants as sustainability actors’. By contrasting individual scale practices against urban to national sustainability narratives, the study illuminates current barriers to and the potential of migrants to play a transformative role in progress towards sustainability that is unrecognized in dominant policy discourses. To tap into this potential, the study emphasizes that sustainability policy across scales should embrace plurality and migration as fundamental parts of progress towards sustainability.

期刊介绍: Global Environmental Change is a prestigious international journal that publishes articles of high quality, both theoretically and empirically rigorous. The journal aims to contribute to the understanding of global environmental change from the perspectives of human and policy dimensions. Specifically, it considers global environmental change as the result of processes occurring at the local level, but with wide-ranging impacts on various spatial, temporal, and socio-political scales. In terms of content, the journal seeks articles with a strong social science component. This includes research that examines the societal drivers and consequences of environmental change, as well as social and policy processes that aim to address these challenges. While the journal covers a broad range of topics, including biodiversity and ecosystem services, climate, coasts, food systems, land use and land cover, oceans, urban areas, and water resources, it also welcomes contributions that investigate the drivers, consequences, and management of other areas affected by environmental change. Overall, Global Environmental Change encourages research that deepens our understanding of the complex interactions between human activities and the environment, with the goal of informing policy and decision-making.
