In 2014, philosopher Chantal Jaquet coined the term transclasse to describe a person who is in the process of changing their social class. In opposition to the perhaps more widely-known expression ‘transfuge de classe’ – popularised by writers such as Annie Ernaux and Édouard Louis – transclasse allows for a comprehension of the necessarily transient nature of social migration, encapsulating a vital element of flux. Importantly, Jaquet's term allows for an understanding that the transclasse is not a rigidly definable identity category, and instead reflects individual experiences of liminality. In this article, I demonstrate the continuing relevance of Jaquet's theorisations by analysing the ways in which Kaoutar Harchi's memoir Comme nous existons explores the unique position of double absence that she occupies as a transclasse who must also navigate her identity as the child of postcolonial immigrants in France, using Abdelmalek Sayad's work La double absence in dialogue with Jaquet and Harchi.

质疑跨阶级自传中的双重缺席：卡乌塔尔·哈奇的《共同存在》中不断变化的后殖民身份

2014 年，哲学家 Chantal Jaquet 创造了“transclasse”一词来描述正在改变社会阶层的人。与可能更广为人知的表达方式“阶级转移”（由安妮·埃尔诺和爱德华·路易斯等作家所推广）相反，跨阶级允许理解社会移民必然短暂的本质，囊括了流动的一个重要因素。重要的是，雅奎特的术语允许人们理解跨阶级并不是一个严格定义的身份类别，而是反映了个人的阈限体验。在这篇文章中，我通过分析 Kaoutar Harchi 的回忆录《Comme nous existons》探讨了她作为一个跨阶级者所占据的双重缺席的独特地位，她还必须在自己作为后殖民移民的孩子的身份中找到自己的身份，从而证明了 Jaquet 理论的持续相关性。法国，在与雅克和哈奇的对话中使用了阿卜杜勒马利克·萨亚德的作品《双重缺席》。
