Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to identify the challenges of overcoming the vulnerability and promoting social integration of migrants and refugees in post-apartheid South Africa. Through interviewing people from four African countries, Malawi, Zimbabwe, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and Uganda, who live in Johannesburg, the author has investigated (1) the background of their migration to South Africa, (2) their livelihood activities in Johannesburg, (3) their relationship with the countries of origin, and (4) the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic and lockdown policy on their lives. As the economic situation in South Africa worsened following the pandemic, social integration of migrants and refugees became more difficult. In this context, some migrants and refugees began to return to their countries of origin.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
21世紀のグローバル化した社会において、国境を越えた人の移動は増加の一途を辿っており、新興国やリージョナルな中心国が国際移動の新たなハブとなっている。本研究では、その一翼を担う南アフリカを事例に、アフリカ諸国出身移民・難民が直面する経済的脆弱性や外国人排斥(ゼノフォビア)の問題とそれを克服するための社会的ネットワークの役割を考察することを通じて、社会の安定への貢献を目指している。
