Rövid leírás:
This book explores the responses to admitting refugees adopted by governments in six different countries. It shows that government policy - as well as the stance of opposition parties - is dependent on the framing of both the country's collective identity and the identity and characteristics of the refugees.

Across the world, the number of people forcibly displaced from their homes has more than doubled during the last decade. Although international law does not allow states to turn back refugees, some countries close their borders to refugees, some open their borders and grant extensive protection, while others admit some groups of refugees while excluding others. How can we make sense of these different responses to admitting refugees? In this book, Daniel Drewski and Jürgen Gerhards show that governments' refugee policy, as well as the stance adopted by opposition parties on the issue, is heavily dependent on how they frame their country's collective identity on the one hand and the identity and characteristics of the refugees on the other. By defining the "we" and the "others", politicians draw on collectively shared cultural repertoires, which vary by country and by political constituency within a country. The book is based on a discourse analysis of parliamentary debates. It explores the specific framing of nations' identities and the corresponding perceptions of otherness by focusing on six countries that have been confronted with large numbers of refugees: Germany, Poland, and Turkey, all responding to the exodus of Syrian and Middle Eastern refugees; Chile's reaction to the Venezuelan displacement; Singapore and its stance towards Rohingya refugees; and Uganda's response to the displacement from South Sudan. The study explores not only differences between governments of different countries but also the conflicting views of different political parties within the same country.
This volume has emerged from research carried out as part of the Cluster of Excellence "Contestations of the Liberal Script - SCRIPTS", which analyzes the contemporary controversies about liberal ideas, institutions, and practices on the national and international level from a historical, global, and comparative perspective. It connects academic expertise in the social sciences and area studies and collaborates with research institutions in all world regions. Operating since 2019 and funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG), SCRIPTS unites eight major Berlin-based research institutions: Freie Universität Berlin, the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, the Berlin Social Science Center (WZB), the Hertie School, the German Institute for Economic Research (DIW), the Berlin branch of the German Institute of Global and Area Studies (GIGA), the Centre for East European and International Studies (ZOiS), and the Leibniz-Zentrum Moderner Orient (ZMO).
In this strikingly original comparative study, the authors analyze how countries as diverse as Chile, Germany, Poland, Singapore, Turkey, and Uganda embrace or reject refugees. They focus on how politicians fit refugees in their countries' story and national cultural repertoires, using frames pertaining to security, as well as legal, moral, cultural and other concerns. They adroitly marry the older political sociology tradition focused on social cleavages and the newer cultural sociology literature on symbolic boundaries to show how the often-used cosmopolitan vs communitarian dichotomy cannot account for patterns. Framing Refugees is a brilliant and refreshing contribution that will leave its mark on how social scientists think about crucial issues facing our societies.
