El, Hariri Alessandra. "'Perceiving Italy' : an exploration of asylum-seekers' strategies : the case of Eritrean asylum-seekers." Thesis, University of Essex, 2017. http://repository.essex.ac.uk/21126/.

Abstract:

This thesis is an exploratory study of the way perceptions and emotions shape the agency of asylum seekers. Using Eritrean asylum seekers that travel to Italy and their perceptions of the Italian asylum system as a case study, it explores how perceptions of Italy and its asylum system shape the strategies of Eritrean asylum seekers at different stages of their migration journey. This research went some way towards developing a notion of agency that also takes into account dimensions (such as the importance of perceptions and emotions) that are sometimes overlooked in forced migration studies,

Abstract:

Unaccompanied minor asylum seekers and refugees are a unique population, who have experienced multiple traumas and loss. A summary of trauma and risk factors faced by these youngsters during pre-migration, flight and resettlement periods is presented. The potential impact of such experiences is evaluated in relation to psychological well-being. Social support is widely accepted as playing a protective role in psychological well-being following stress and trauma (Joseph, 1997). The potential benefits of social support for unaccompanied youngsters seeking asylum in the UK are considered in relat

Abstract:

1.1 Background: Despite growing recognition of the negative impact of ever stringent asylum employed by western governments, psychological conceptualisations of distress in these populations remains dominated by traumamodels. 1.2 Literature Review: A systematic literature review was conducted to collate and critique findings from studies relating postmigratory stress to asylum seeker distress. The 44 reviewed studies suggested asylum seekers endure a range of postmigratory stressors relating to acculturative challenges, social isolation, material deprivation and restrictive asylum legislation.

Abstract:

The refugee crisis is currently a major world event. However, not much is known about the technology adoption and digital skills of those fleeing these conflicts and seeking asylum in foreign countries. To study this, a qualitative study was conducted in Umeå, Sweden. Data was collected through interviews, written responses and observations. The results show that refugees and asylum seekers have positive attitude towards digital technology adoption. However, they perceived digital technology primarily as tools to fulfil their recreational needs. A strategic use of technology for improving prod

This thesis examines the potential power of internet users to use the internet in the conduct of their everyday lives by discussing the impact of state and non-state actors on cyberspace.

Theoretical debates identify the overwhelmingly territorial nature of cyber governance through nationally developed and enforced legislation, which is in direct opposition to the power of transnational ICTs.

Abstract:

This minor dissertation is a research paper on the use of arbitrary detention to criminalise asylum seekers in South Africa. After the democratic transition in 1994 South Africa became a leading destination for asylum seekers from across the African continent. South Africa’s post-apartheid immigration and refugee system were based on a human-rights approach and aimed at creating a culture of inclusion and tolerance. Despite a progressive Refugee Act, the most prominent aspect of the South African asylum system is its use of arbitrary detention as a form of immigration control. The goal of this

These are systems of ‘Welfare as Control’. 1990s UK legislation has increasi

The legal position of asylum seekers in South African social security system is more nuanced as a result of their transitional stay or status in the country. Asylum seekers may often be present in South Africa for a quite a long time but their social security entitlement is more restricted, and similar to that of temporary residents. For example, asylum seekers’ social security position is completely different from that of refugees. Refugees enjoy the same social security treatment similarly to South African citizens and permanent residents. Refugees qualify for the constitutionally entrenched

Explanatory models have thus far focused on post-migratory factors, largely ignoring pre- and peri-migratory factors.

Immigration has become one of the most contentious issues in Europe.
