Genom att kartlägga arabiskspråkig migrantlitteratur och analysera dess historiska, sociala och kulturella kontexter syftar projektet till att belysa hur denna litteratur har utvecklats, spridits och mottagits i Sverige. Betydelsen av denna studie är stor då det är den första omfattande undersökningen av sitt slag inom området. Projektet inkluderar även förlagens och författarnas egna röster och perspektiv genom att gå i dialog med nyckelaktörer inom det arabiskspråkiga litterära fältet, bland annat med hjälp av fallstudier.
Projektet kommer att bidra till en djupare förståelse för arabiskspråkig migrantlitteratur och dess roll i den svenska kulturmiljön samt ge insikt i de dynamiker och utmaningar som arabiskspråkiga förlag och författare med migrantbakgrund ställs inför i den svenska litterära sfären. Dessa insikter kan i sin tur ha bredare implikationer för hur vi förstår migrationens påverkan på kulturell och litterär produktion.

منذ أبريل 2024، تقوم الدكتورة مريم دلهومي، باحثة ما بعد الدكتوراه في مركز اللغات والآداب بجامعة لوند، بمشروع بحث بعنوان Bound in Exile يدرس الأدب العربي الذي نُشر في السويد من خلال مؤسسي ديار النشر والمؤلفين المغتربين في السويد. وهذا البحث سيستمر لمدة عامين وهو جزء من المبادرة البحثية المسماة الحقول الأكاديمية والثقافية في السويد من منظور ما بعد الهجرة الممولة من قبل Riksbankens jubileumsfond
يتمحور البحث حول تحليل الإنتاج الأدبي باللغة العربية وتوزيعه وتلقيه في السويد بغاية الوصول إلى فهم أعمق لدوره وأهميته التاريخية والاجتماعية والثقافية. أهمية هذا المشروع تكمن في كونه الدراسة الشاملة الأولى من نوعها في هذا المجال. كما يسعى المشروع إلى تسليط الضوء على الأصوات والمنظورات الخاصة بديار النشر والمؤلفين أنفسهم من خلال الحوار مع الفاعلين الرئيسيين في الحقل الأدبي العربي في السويد.
سيسهم المشروع في تعزيز فهم الأدب العربي ودوره في المشهد الثقافي السويدي، بالإضافة إلى تقديم رؤى حول الديناميات والتحديات التي يواجهها الناشرون والمؤلفون من خلفيات مهاجرة من كل الأجيال في الساحة الأدبية السويدية. ويمكن أن تكون لهذه الرؤى آثار أوسع على فهم تأثير الهجرة على الإنتاج الثقافي والأدبي.

In 2024, the academy will take place over 5 interactive online sessions with experts from Migration Policy Group (MPG) and guest speakers, leaders in their fields. The academy will coverthrough various topics, including participation, evidence-based advocacy, sustainability and resiliance, organising and campaigning. These topics will be examined thorugh the participants’ own experience, but will also be placed in the context of the current environment, accounting for issues such as the rise of populist movements. Practical matters such as how to successfully communicate will also be explored through group discussions and exercises.
The online sessions will take place over five Tuesdays in the period 5 November – 10 December (5, 12, 19 and 26 November, and 10 December), and will last about 3 hours each.
