Public Opinion Towards Migration I

Abstract

Democracies across the world are witnessing an increasing polarization of public opinion towards migration. While existing data shows rising scepticism in people’s attitudes towards migrants in many countries, assessing which factors account for such attitudes is a rather complex task. Yet, it is an essential task as the public opinion towards migration shape both immigrant integration practices and migration policy-making. This panel explores public attitudes towards immigrants’ access to welfare protection on individual and contextual levels.
