ABSTRACT

Research addressing conflict and migration has made great strides in explaining the relationship between violence and migration. However, it commonly lacks individual-level data on exposure to war. We use survey data from the 2018 Vietnam Health and Aging Study to examine the associations between war-related violence exposure during the American War and the wartime migrations of northern Vietnamese war survivors. Using multilevel mixed-effects count models, we investigate three groups of factors influencing migration—war-related events, economic circumstances, and demographic and life course factors—to explore the relationship between war exposure and migration, inclusive of deployments, economic moves, and displacements. Our findings indicate that the effects of war exposure, socioeconomic status, and demographic characteristics diverge for different types of migration. These findings, framed within the life course and historical context, suggest the need to thoughtfully delineate both war exposures and traditional causes of migration to understand the diverse types of mobility occurring during periods of armed conflict.

针对冲突和移民的研究在解释暴力与移民之间的关系方面取得了长足的进步。然而，它通常缺乏有关战争暴露的个人数据。我们使用 2018 年越南健康与老龄化研究的调查数据来研究美国战争期间与战争相关的暴力暴露与越南北部战争幸存者的战时移民之间的关联。使用多级混合效应计数模型，我们调查了三组影响移民的因素——战争相关事件、经济环境以及人口和生命历程因素——以探索战争暴露与移民之间的关系，包括部署、经济变动和人口流动。位移。我们的研究结果表明，战争暴露、社会经济地位和人口特征对不同类型的移民的影响有所不同。这些研究结果以生命历程和历史背景为框架，表明需要仔细描述战争风险和传统的移民原因，以了解武装冲突期间发生的不同类型的流动。
