Populations réfugiées : de l'exil au retour
Cet article traite du rapatriement dans son contexte politique actuel et analyse le concept de rapatriement involontaire selon les normes juridiques internationales. Il suggère que dans certaines situations, le rapatriement involontaire peut être conforme au droit international tant qu'il se déroule dans la sécurité. Il montre néanmoins que le respect du caractère volontaire du rapatriement demeure un principe utile du point de vue politique dans la mesure où le gouvernement d'accueil a tout intérêt à respecter la volonté des personnes concernées à rentrer chez elles.

The paper examines understandings of citizenship and ethnic identification among the ‘Urdu-speaking linguistic minority’ in Bangladesh, addressing three key areas of debate. Firstly, it explores the relationship between the material institution of citizenship and conditions of (physical) integration/segregation. Secondly, it attempts to unpick the intimate connection between that material institution and the ethnic and national identities of individuals. Finally, it investigates a dissonance discovered between the bureaucratic state recognition of citizenship and imaginations of that status among interviewees, the ‘identities of citizenship’ occupied at the local level. The paper demonstrates the significance of subject positionality, economies of power and the ‘dialogic’ nature of ethnic identity formation, and discusses the complex emotional ordering of belonging they collectively construct
