migrant还是refugee

长汀烧大块

看腻了德媒的报道，随手打开了几个英美国家的主流媒体（等级不够没法贴链接）纽约时报 BBC 卫报 路透社等等，发现一个很重要的区别是报道已经用migrant crisis取代了refugee crisis，对此BBC还专门出了一篇文章，The battle over the words used to describe migrants，感兴趣可以google一下。另外BBC还有另外一篇文章，解释为什么这些难民不去富裕海湾国家的原因 Migrant crisis: Why Syrians do not flee to Gulf states。写得都不错，提供千篇一律的德媒之外的另一个视角，供参考讨论

Migrant crisis: Why Syrians do not flee to Gulf states

http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-34132308

But the process is costly, and there is a widespread perception that many Gulf states have unwritten restrictions in place that it make it hard for Syrians to be granted a visa in practice.

The battle over the words used to describe migrants
http://www.bbc.com/news/magazine-34061097

The word migrant is defined in Oxford English Dictionary as "one who moves, either temporarily or permanently, from one place, area, or country of residence to another".


A refugee, according to the 1951 Refugee Convention, "is any person who, owing to a well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion, is outside the country of his/her nationality and is unable, or owing to such fear, is unwilling to avail himself/herself of the protection of that country".
