“…The model proposed by Elias and Scotson and their argument concerning social age have been taken up and intensively discussed in migration studies (e.g. Loyal, 2011; Petintseva, 2015; Treibel, 1993). It has also been pointed out that the social age of a group does not necessarily contribute to its power and status (Bauböck, 1993; Rosenthal, 2016).…”

“…We believe that considering the effects of diachronic group formation, as proposed by Norbert Elias (1994) and researchers who have studied migration contexts from this perspective (e.g. Hüttermann, 2020; Rosenthal, 2016; Treibel, 1993), will help to reconstruct these interrelations. Using an empirical example, we will show that differences along the axis ‘old-established residents’–‘migrant newcomers’ are constructed interactively and change over time.…”

On the emergence and changing positions of old-established groupings in migration contexts: A process perspective on group formation in Jordan

While being ‘old-established’ is usually seen as a product of the social negotiation of migration, there is little empirical research on how this category evolves and changes over time. To unravel this process, we focus in this article on the group formation processes which contribute to the making and unmaking of being ‘old-established’ as a pattern of interpretation, a we-image and a potential power chance in various figurations. A combination of figurational and biographical approaches with an extended chronological horizon provides a theoretical and methodological framework to focus on when, and in what circumstances, residents distinguish between ‘old-established’ and ‘newcomers’ in their we- and they-images. Attention is paid to the socio-historical transformations which increase or reduce material and immaterial power chances (such as ownership of land, length of association and internal cohesion) within dynamic processes of group formation in migration societies. A multigenerational case study of an extended family in Jordan shows the complex processuality of how long-time residents become ‘old-established’ as a group, which expands their power chances, and under what circumstances this status can become eroded.
