Male Beach Workers and Western Female Tourists\u00a0: Livelihood Strategies In Kenya’s South Coast Region<\/strong><\/p>\n

Njeri Chege a obtenu le grade de Docteure en sciences sociales \u00e0 l’Universit\u00e9 de Lausanne en novembre 2014. Elle est \u00e9galement titulaire d\u2019un Master of Arts in Gender Studies de la Central European University et d\u2019un Master en \u00c9tudes du d\u00e9veloppement de l\u2019IHEID. <\/em><\/p>\n

Ces derni\u00e8res ann\u00e9es ont vu l\u2019\u00e9mergence d\u2019une base de connaissance, ainsi que d’un int\u00e9r\u00eat et d’une prise de conscience accrue du public, \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9gard des relations \u00e9conomico-sexuelles entre hommes locaux et femmes occidentales dans diff\u00e9rentes r\u00e9gions touristiques du monde. Cependant, \u00e0 ce jour, des perspectives occidentales sur ce ph\u00e9nom\u00e8ne constituent l’essentiel de la litt\u00e9rature existante. En remettant en question le discours dominant du \u00abromance tourism\u00bb (tourisme sentimental) et les repr\u00e9sentations qui con\u00e7oivent les hommes participants comme \u00e9tant des ‘victimes-opportunistes’, cette th\u00e8se explore les exp\u00e9riences, et les visions qu’ont les travailleurs de plage sur les relations \u00e9conomico-sexuelles entre hommes Kenyans et femmes Occidentales dans la r\u00e9gion de la C\u00f4te Sud du Kenya. Les hommes n’ont pas \u00e9t\u00e9 consid\u00e9r\u00e9s de mani\u00e8re isol\u00e9e; leurs exp\u00e9riences et leurs perspectives sont situ\u00e9es par rapport \u00e0 leurs liens familiaux, leurs r\u00e9seaux sociaux et aussi par rapport \u00e0 l’\u00e9conomie politique du tourisme baln\u00e9aire.<\/p>\n

L’\u00e9tude montre que, sur place, ces relations sont clairement con\u00e7ues comme des strat\u00e9gies de survie pour les participants h\u00f4tes. Les hommes cherchent \u00e0 \u00e9tablir des relations de longue dur\u00e9e avec des femmes touristes comme moyen d\u2019acc\u00e9der \u00e0 des biens et des services qui constituent des n\u00e9cessit\u00e9s de base, pour eux et pour leur famille et, globalement, pour relever leur niveau de vie. L’\u00e9tude fait valoir que ces relations sont une r\u00e9ponse \u00e0 la pauvret\u00e9 et aux in\u00e9galit\u00e9s sociales cr\u00e9\u00e9es par des dynamiques socio-\u00e9conomiques au fil du temps. Elles sont aussi une r\u00e9ponse aux prescriptions sociales locales d\u2019apr\u00e8s lesquelles la valeur sociale masculine est d\u00e9finie \u00e0 travers la capacit\u00e9 des hommes \u00e0 se marier, \u00e0 procr\u00e9er et \u00e0 assurer un soutien interg\u00e9n\u00e9rationnel social et \u00e9conomique. La qu\u00eate, en parall\u00e8le, de relations d’amiti\u00e9s non-sexuelles \u00e0 motivation \u00e9conomique, d\u00e9nomm\u00e9es \u00ab\u00a0family friends\u00a0\u00bb,<\/em> par des hommes, est un r\u00e9sultat saillant de cette \u00e9tude qui vient renforcer l’observation que les relations \u00e9conomico-sexuelles rel\u00e8vent avant tout de strat\u00e9gies de survie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
