Summary
In the past few years, major transformations have occurred in relationships between Western societies and refugees seeking a home within their borders. A marked increase in the influx of refugees and asylum seekers into these host societies has coincided with polarization in receiving societies’ collective representations of refugees, associated with socioeconomic and political dynamics shattering European and North American majorities’ privileges in a globalizing world [1]. Policy responses to the growing demands of refugee reception have fueled polarized debates about both solidarity and exclusion within political discourses and local communities.
