Die Flüchtling – der Flüchtling als Frau

Genderreflexiver Zugang

Zusammenfassung

Hat das (völker-)rechtliche Flüchtlingskonstrukt ein Geschlecht? Welche Chancen und Gefahren können durch die Flucht für Frauen entstehen? Und werden Männer im Flüchtlingsschutz wie auch der Forschung ausreichend berücksichtigt? Diese Fragen stehen im Mittelpunkt des Beitrags, indem ein genderreflexiver Zugang zur Flüchtlingsdebatte aufgenommen wird. Es wird argumentiert, dass die Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention einem männlichen Paradigma unterlag und ‚der‘ Flüchtling in der Vergangenheit vornehmlich als Mann verstanden wurde. Seit den 1990er Jahren werden jedoch differenzierte Perspektiven aufgenommen und Frauen zunehmend berücksichtigt. Dennoch sind geflüchtete Frauen vielfältigen Gefahren ausgesetzt, wodurch sie im Flüchtlingsschutz als vulnerabel dargestellt werden. Dies führt zu einer Binarität von Opferfrauen und Tätermännern, die der Realität nicht gerecht wird.

Dieser Beitrag ist im Rahmen des Forschungsprojektes „Genderbeziehungen im begrenzten Raum. Bedingungen, Ausmaß und Formen von sexueller Gewalt an Frauen in kriegsbedingten Flüchtlingslagern“ entstanden, das am Zentrum für Konfliktforschung der Philipps-Universität Marburg durchgeführt und von der Deutschen Stiftung Friedensforschung finanziert wird, bei der ich mich herzlich bedanke.
