摘要

把难民视为问题和威胁的倾向往往助长了东道国居民对难民的消极态度。这可能导致围绕寻求庇护者和难民的总体敌对主导话语。在叙事分析的指导下,本文探讨了生活在马来西亚的难民如何通过他们对难民经历的个人叙述来应对耻辱。由于近年来马来西亚的难民和寻求庇护者的知名度和人数有所增加,该专题与马来西亚特别相关,其中约有182,780人登记,但没有法律地位,导致他们在流离失所期间受到保护和援助的障碍。这里的叙述提供了马来西亚难民如何经历耻辱的一些描述,以及他们如何在敌对情况下导航的方式。更重要的是,这些叙事显示了对强加给难民的污名化身份的认识,并说明了难民抵抗和提供替代存在方式的叙事策略范围。这些策略包括指责或拒绝歧视、挪用马来西亚人身份、假设好公民身份、冒充他人。

Narratives of Resistance Towards Stigmatised Refugee Identities in Malaysia
The tendency to frame refugees as problems and threats has often fuelled negative attitudes among residents of the host countries towards refugees. This can contribute to overall hostile dominant discourses surrounding asylum seekers and refugees. Guided by narrative analysis, this article examines how refugees living in Malaysia cope with stigma through their personal narratives of the refugee experience. The topic is particularly relevant in the Malaysian context due to an increase in recent years in the visibility and the numbers of refugees and asylum seekers in Malaysia, of whom about 182,780 are registered but have no legal status, leading to barriers to protection rights and assistance during their displacement. The narratives presented here provide some description of how refugees in Malaysia experience stigma and the ways in which they have navigated hostile situations. More importantly, the narratives display awareness of the stigmatised identities imposed on refugees and illustrate the range of narrative strategies available to refugees to resist and offer alternative ways of being. These strategies include blaming or rejecting the discrimination, appropriating the Malaysian identity, assuming the good citizen identity, and passing for another person.
