New open access book:
"Suis-je un réfugié?" Les stratégies de survie de Syriens dans les espaces urbains en Turquie et en Jordanie (Presses de l’Inalco, 2024; OA in April 2025) [open access]
- "Entre 2011 et 2024, plus de 6 millions de personnes ont dû quitter la Syrie. Une grande partie d’entre elles se sont réfugiées dans les pays voisins, notamment en Turquie et en Jordanie. En s’appuyant sur de nombreux entretiens et sur une observation critique des organisations humanitaires qu’elle a pu rejoindre, l’autrice rend compte des stratégies de survie adoptées par les individus en exil dans ces deux pays. S’ils subissent des discriminations du fait de leur statut, ces dernières ne sont pas les mêmes pour tous puisqu’elles se croisent avec d’autres dimensions de leur identité. Leurs stratégies de survie sont donc elles-mêmes traversées par des rapports sociaux de race, de classe et de genre. Alors que la chute du régime de Bachar al-Assad a suscité l’espoir d’un retour, mais aussi la crainte de la remise en question de leur statut pour de nombreux réfugiés syriens, ce livre vise à rendre compte de l’expérience de l’exil dans toute sa complexité."
