Transnationalism and the mobilities paradigm are important theoretical contributions to have emerged during the last three decades in social sciences. However, they have not been meaningfully integrated within migration studies. Rather, analysis of transnational phenomena has focused on two distinct places (country, society, city etc.); back and forth movement between them; and the flows that create the social fields that link them. This article attempts to disrupt that binational/bilocal view by understanding transnational lives as part of a continuous yet fragmented mobility. It does so through an ethnography conducted in 2016 of refugees at a camp at the Port of Piraeus in Athens, Greece, during the so-called European refugee crisis. The findings show that although spatially stranded in Greece, the refugees maintained dreams of getting farther into Europe while relying on, and being aided by, information and communication technology. Theirs were transnational lives not between just two places but on the move.

移动中的跨国生活:超越两国久坐主义

跨国主义和流动性范式是过去三年社会科学中出现的重要理论贡献。然而,它们并没有被有意义地整合到移民研究中。相反,对跨国现象的分析集中在两个不同的地方(国家、社会、城市等);它们之间来回运动;以及创造连接它们的社会领域的流动。本文试图通过将跨国生活理解为持续但支离破碎的流动的一部分来打破这种双重国家/双重地方的观点。它通过 2016 年在所谓的欧洲难民危机期间在希腊雅典比雷埃夫斯港的一个营地进行的难民民族志来实现。研究结果表明,虽然在空间上滞留在希腊,难民们在依靠信息和通信技术并得到帮助的同时,仍然梦想着更远地进入欧洲。他们的跨国生活不仅仅是在两个地方之间,而是在移动中。
