摘要

在国际上,多元文化主义内部、之外和反对多元文化主义的叙述过多,使得重新思考一些关键问题成为必要。多元文化有利于公平代表权吗?多元文化主义是否仍然是多样性的霸权话语和政策,还是注定要被取代?在这篇文章中,我们以澳大利亚悉尼这个全球多元文化城市为背景,重新考虑多元文化主义不断变化的货币和教学潜力。我们的定性研究以“新青年”的声音和知识为基础,他们自我认同为移民、多种族和/或酷儿——(后)多元文化的符号,这些符号是非土著的,但与之前被认为理所当然的以欧洲为中心的白人异性恋代表澳大利亚国家有很大不同。通过对这些新青年的深入采访,我们了解到他们是如何有效地理解多元文化和社区的。他们从情感上脱离了多元文化主义,这种文化主义修补了种族类别/差异,却使白人的结构既不透明又完整。另一方面,他们看到了多元文化的一些价值,但对多元文化对社区工作、争取正义的斗争、以及他们自己的身份和归属感产生影响的潜力又感到矛盾。我们的研究结果对多样性和社会正义教育具有启示意义,表明后多元文化和/或另类的多样性和归属感的复杂表达的出现,动摇了固定的身份类别和国家和归属感的概念,实际上是多元文化主义本身。

“We’ve worn out the use of that word”: Australian New Youth on Multiculturalism, And the Politics of Identity, Difference and Belonging
ABSTRACT Internationally a plethora of narratives within, beside and in opposition to multiculturalism has necessitated the rethinking of some key questions. Is multiculturalism apt for equitable representation? Can multiculturalism remain the hegemonic discourse and policy of diversity or is it destined to be supplanted? In this essay, we reconsider multiculturalism’s changing currency and pedagogical potential, contextualized in the global multicultural city of Sydney, Australia. Our qualitative research is grounded in the voices and knowledge of “new youth,” who self-identify as immigrant, multiracial, and/or queer – (post)multicultural signifiers that are non-Indigenous and yet significantly differing from the previously taken for granted Eurocentric white heterosexual representations of the Australian nation. Through our in-depth interviews with these new youth – who are also activist community workers – we learned how they affectively make sense of multiculturalism and community. They are emotionally divested from multiculturalism that tinkers with ethnoracial categories/differences yet leave the structures of whiteness both opaque and intact. On the other hand, they see some value in but are ambivalent about multiculturalism’s potential to make a difference to community work, struggles for justice, and their own identities and senses of belonging. Our findings, which have implications for diversity and social justice education, indicate the emergence of post-multicultural and/or alternative, complex articulations of diversity and belonging that unsettle fixed identity categories and conceptions of the nation and belonging and indeed multiculturalism itself.
