摘要

以往有关难民的研究表明,人际间的低信任度阻碍了难民在东道国的社会适应。然而,难民中普遍存在的低信任感,尤其是在他们自己的社区中,仍然鲜为人知。本研究利用在英国伦敦的北朝鲜难民的调查和访谈数据,探究了导致他们对群体内同伴不信任的社会过程。定量研究结果表明,难民建立了一个紧密的群体内社区,该社区以强烈的情感纽带为纽带,但与之相反的是,这种情感纽带并不一定会发展成为相互信任。访谈显示,他们从北朝鲜带来的寻求庇护经历和文化规范继续影响着他们如何将群体内的接触视为潜在威胁。此外,与当地人(尤其是南韩移民)的互动也会放大对群体内成员的自卑感和不信任。这些发现揭示了难民之间持续存在互不信任的复杂社会过程,为难民在重新安置过程中面临的多方面挑战提供了启示。

Disenchanted comradery: The social process of persistent mistrust among North Korean refugees in the United Kingdom

Previous research on refugees demonstrates that low interpersonal trust impedes their social adaptation in host countries. However, a pervasive sense of low trust among refugees, particularly within their own communities, remains less understood. Using survey and interview data from North Korean refugees in London, United Kingdom, this study probes the social processes that foster mistrust towards their in-group peers. The quantitative findings show that refugees have created a close-knit, in-group community bounded by strong emotional bonds that, counterintuitively, do not necessarily develop into mutual trust. The interviews show that the asylum-seeking experiences and the cultural norms they bring from North Korea continue to shape how they perceive in-group contacts as potential threats. Additionally, interactions with locals, especially South Korean immigrants, amplify perceptions of inferiority and mistrust towards in-group members. These findings illuminate the complex social process through which mutual mistrust continues to persist among refugees, offering insights into the multifaceted challenges refugees face in resettlement.
