The upheavals of war and displacement have deeply disrupted Syrian couples' relationships, contributing to rising divorce rates, child marriages, and domestic violence. Despite these profound changes, the transformation of conjugal intimacy due to conflict-induced displacement remains understudied. Addressing this critical gap, this study investigates how intimacy, encompassing emotional and sexual dimensions, is shaped by the lived experiences of displacement. This article examines the relationship between intimacy and the notions of space and place and focuses on the experiences of five Syrian couples displaced in Lebanon, shedding light on how, in the context of forced migration, intimacy is renegotiated through homemaking practices. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of Journal of Ethnic & Migration Studies is the property of Taylor & Francis Ltd and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
