| dc.description.abstract | This thesis will present the case of undocumented residents of the SNOV shelter in Nijmegen to illustrate how undocumented people are affected by the unstable and ever-changing environment they find themselves in. Officially, these people are not allowed to be in the Netherlands, yet there are tens of thousands living here. The data that was gathered during this qualitative research is based on twelve residents of SNOV, which are predominantly men. This thesis will provide insights on how undocumented residents build towards a future in which they hold an official status. Moreover, it will show how these residents experience place by regarding their feelings of displacement, processes of place making, belonging and place attachment. The evidence presented in this thesis demonstrates how the undocumented residents of SNOV show to be social navigators as they adapt varying strategies to flexibly navigate the unstable environment. This thesis sheds light on the agency of these people as they anticipate possible trajectories that might occur in the future. Additionally, it will show how experience of place affects these social navigators. | en_US |
