Shaping the contours of fractured landscapes: Extending the layering of an information perspective on refugee resettlement

摘要

Refugee experience of resettlement into a third country is problematised by posing the question, what happens when an established information landscape fractures? Themes of disjuncture, intensification and liminality that have emerged from the author's research are described, using social theories as the analytical lens to shape the contours of fracture. Two other questions are posed How is digital space implicated in rebuilding information landscapes that have become fractured? and; What is the role of technology in enabling or constraining the conditions for remaking place?
