In this article, I build on a combination of games research, narrative theory, and migration studies to examine how these games enrich and complicate the cultural representation of migration. My focus is on how different scales of migration converge in game experiences (and in the narratives bound up with those experiences), immersing the player in moral dilemmas that have no clear solution or ideal outcome. I study four indie games that deploy this conceptual and emotional dynamic within different genres: Papers, Please (2013), Bury Me, My Love (2017), Frostpunk (2018), and Where the Water Tastes Like Wine (2018). By putting the player in touch with a variety of fictional migrants, these games walk a fine line between empathy for individual migrants and understanding of the large-scale factors that shape the lived experience of migration and the discourse surrounding it. Games thus mirror the real-world complexity of migration but also afford opportunities for more critical, or distanced, reflection than is possible in engaging with, for example, factual representation in the media.KEYWORDS: Storytellingmigrationethicsdigital narrativevideo games Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 An early draft of this paper was presented at a workshop on ‘Narratives of Mobility in the Anthropocene’ (Ghent University, May 2023). I would like to thank the workshop participants for their helpful feedback.2 I am using the term ‘negotiation’ in a technical sense here: it refers to how narrative may bring up a certain cultural topic (in this case, migration) and explore or illuminate some aspects of that discussion. See Herman and Vervaeck (Citation2017) for a fuller account.3 For more on serious gaming, see Rockwell and Kee (Citation2011).4 Also relevant here is Stefano Gualeni’s (Citation2022) discussion of ‘philosophical games’, which serve as a springboard for philosophical reflection (including reflection on ethical themes). Papers, Please, discussed below, is one of Gualeni’s examples.5 For an introduction to games research, including the various methodological options available to researchers, see Daneels et al. (Citation2022).6 For further discussion of scale in relation to media accounts of migration, see Adinolfi and Caracciolo (Citationunder review).7 Grand Theft Auto IV (Citation2008), which centers on the experiences of an illegal migrant from Eastern Europe to the United States, was perhaps one of the earliest AAA games to offer an in-depth view of migration.8 Through its foregrounding of movement, Where the Water Tastes Like Wine can also be read as a ‘walking simulator’.

Findings show that, in the context of structural and community violence and poverty, Central American and Mexican youth migrate alone at young ages, in part to fulfill moral obligations to provide financial and emotional support within networks of care for the families they eventually leave behind. For many, left-behind family’s needs increase as parents and siblings age into new life stages. Unmarried transnational youth workers are especially likely to shoulder moral obligations. This is while they transition into young adulthood in the US and weigh their own prospects for education and occupational mobility in Los Angeles or their home communities. Maintaining moral obligations established in adolescence throughout the transition into young adulthood can cause youth to reimagine futures to include the possibility of staying and other alternatives. This research offers important insights into the changing nature of transnational families, unaccompanied minors’ coming of age, and the lives of migrant youth workers in the US.","PeriodicalId":48371,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies","volume":"131 4","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136351304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

And why do migration policies consistently fail to meet their stated objectives? This paper argues that identifying the underlying perspective that informs migration policy-making can be a productive tool to answer these questions. I start by reviewing notions of ‘migration’ and ‘mobility’ used in political and scholarly discourse and argue that the ways of differentiating between the two entail not only biases related to norms of sedentariness or social hierarchies, but also blind spots for how states and individuals perceive cross-border movements. As an alternative, I propose to conceptualise ‘migration’ and ‘mobility’ as categories reflecting perspectives that either normalise sedentariness and fixed borders or movement and fluidity. In a second step, I combine the two perspectives with the perceptions of the state as the main regulator of movement and the individual on the move, leading to four ideal-typical situations of aligned and non-aligned perspectives on human movement. This notion of intersecting perspectives can help us explain both policy-making processes and the impact of migration policies. This is illustrated through two examples of EU-level policies on intra-corporate transferees on the one hand and family reunification on the other.","PeriodicalId":48371,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies","volume":"18 2","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135043214","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The concept has played a critical role in making these messy constellations of social, political, and economic ties both visible and legible. However, transnational adoptees are often positioned just outside this analytical purview, and their migrations, identity processes, and political projects are rarely examined through a ‘diasporic’ conceptual lens. Based on 20 in-depth interviews with adult Ethiopian adoptees residing in the US, this paper discusses the points of dis/connection between Ethiopian adoptees and the larger Ethiopian diaspora. We focus on how Ethiopian adoptees navigate their inclusion/exclusion as peripheral actors across social groups, as well as the active work they engage in to negotiate their diasporic identities, belongings and personal politic. This analysis draws our attention to new actors at the edges of diasporic communities, which complicates and enriches mainstream conceptions of diaspora.KEYWORDS: BelongingdiasporaEthiopiaidentitytransnational adoption Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1 It is not uncommon that transnational adoptees have at least one living birth parent. UNICEF (Citation2014) defines an orphan as a child with one deceased parent, distinguishing between maternal, paternal, and double orphans. Moreover, children can be erroneously categorized as orphans to fraudulently create a constant supply of ‘adoptable’ children to prospective adoptive parents (Hailu Citation2017; Steenrod Citation2022). To illustrate, Hannah Pool (Citation2009), an Ethiopian/Eritrean adoptee, writes about how she discovered that her father is well and alive in her thirties. Similarly, in our sample alone, 14 out of the 20 adoptees have at least one living birth parent and have maintained or re-established contact with their families in Ethiopia.2 Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt (b. 2005) is the adopted daughter of the celebrity couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. Zahara was born in Hawassa, Ethiopia and known as Yemeserach before being adopted at six month old.3 Tsehay Hawkins (b. 2005), was born in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and adopted by a white Australia couple at five months old. She is an actor, dancer and singer, best known as a member of the Australia children's music group The Wiggles.4 See https://www.uscis.gov/adoption/country-information/adoption-information-ethiopia (last accessed 9/23/2023).5 According to Peter Selman (Citation2022) between 2003 and 2016, 32,000 Ethiopian children were adopted to eight Global North countries, namely the U.S. Canada, Spain, Italy, Denmark, Switzerland, and Belgium.

It is based on ethnographic fieldwork among diasporic Somalis who have migrated from western countries and relocated to Turkey. Drawing on mobility studies, the analysis shows that the reasons behind their mobility relate to the protection of their second-generation children from ‘bad moral behaviour’ by exposing them to stronger traditional cultural values. The study applies the notion of ‘moral geography’, which is mobility motivated by moral considerations, and the choice of geographical location that is aligned with migrants’ moral values. In this article, I argue that the (hyper)mobility of diasporic Somalis creates particular moral geographies that cannot be reduced to a question of either nomadism or sedentarism. I look at the first-generation diasporic Somalis’ mobility patterns and the meanings they attribute to it.KEYWORDS: Mobilitymigrationmoral geographiesnomadismsedentarism AcknowledgmentI sincerely appreciate Dr. Nasir Warfa and Professor Cawo Abdi for their invaluable insights and expertise.
