“…Tudi priseljenke in priseljenci vplivajo na razvoj znanosti, kulture, gospodarstva v sprejemni državi, k temu prispevajo s svojim znanjem in delovanjem, pa naj gre za slovenske izseljenke, izseljence v tujini ali za priseljenke, priseljence v Slovenijo (prim. Mlekuž, 2017;Kajzer et al, 2019;Grdina & Zajc, 2022).…”

Prenovljena osnovno- in srednješolska zakonodaja predvideva intenzivni začetni tečaj slovenščine ter individualno spremljanje napredka vključevanja. Na voljo je vedno več didaktičnega gradiva za različno starostno stopnjo otrok, a izzivi ostajajo. Še več jih je pri izvajanju medkulturnega dialoga v okviru pouka. Učni načrti in učna gradiva bi morali odsevati družbeno raznolikost, a so priseljenke in priseljenci, pripadnice in pripadniki manjšin v njih največkrat nevidni ali prikazani pristransko. To je treba spremeniti in tudi njim samim omogočiti, da se predstavijo ter spregovorijo o izzivih vključevanja, o sestavljeni identiteti in o svoji vlogi v družbi.

“…Most studies of food and migration have concentrated on the relationship between migrants and host societies, and the processes of integration and acculturation. They touch upon issues such as migrant agency, the (re)creation of home culture through food (Avakian 1997), the construction of culinary culture (Ray 2004;Mlekuz 2017), ethnicity and the concepts of belonging (Cook et al 1999;Diner 2001;Williams-Forson 2006) and gustatory boundaries in relation to "others" (Ray 2004). Since migrants are placed in a state of flux, they are subject to a range of influences in their everyday lives which construct and reconstruct their identities (Vallianatos and Raine 2008;Brembeck 2014;Abbots 2016).…”

Cooking with refugees and migrants. Performing authenticity and traditionality for Warsaw’s culinary tourists

During the migration crisis of 2015, a commonly shared belief about the integrating role of food resulted in the emergence of several culinary initiatives directed at refugees and migrants in Warsaw. I show that these culinary initiatives form a space for the creation of ostensibly opposing processes. On the one hand, they empower refugees and migrants by embracing the culinary cultures of their home countries; on the other, they facilitate the creation of simplified and folkloristic images of them. During culinary workshops, the role of migrants and refugees is to recreate traditional dishes, using “authentic” recipes. At the same time, they are restricted by the organizers’ ethical foodways and the demands of Warsaw’s culinary tourists, such as vegetarianism, to which migrants and refugees skilfully adapt. These processes result from a neoliberal logic, whereby refugees’ and migrants’ experiences and their ethnicity become commodities in the NGO market.This article draws on ethnographic research conducted between 2017 and 2018 in Warsaw. I look at the biographies of six women refugees cooperating with selected initiatives. I analyse their strategies of recreating traditionality in the dishes they cook in order to authenticate their migration stories. I also examine their experiences and practices in the context of “food capital” that emerges as a result of the exchange of cultural capital between migrants and residents, and “refugee capital”, defined as the ability to use refugee status for personal development and integration. Combining “food capital” with “refugee capital” turns out to be an excellent recipe for success for refugees’ migration projects.
