This book explores how the rising numbers of refugees entering
Europe from 2015 onwards played into fears of cultural, religious,
and ethnic differences across the continent. The migrant, or
refugee crisis, prompted fierce debate about European norms and
values, with some commentators questioning whether mostly Muslim
refugees would be able to adhere to these values, and be able to
integrate into a predominantly Christian European society. In this
volume, philosophers, legal scholars, anthropologists and
sociologists, analyze some of these debates and discuss practical
strategies to reconcile the values that underpin the European
project with multiculturalism and religious pluralism, whilst at
the same time safeguarding the rights of refugees to seek asylum.
Country case studies in the book are drawn from France, Germany,
Greece, Hungary, Italy, the Netherlands, Poland, Spain, Sweden, and
the United Kingdom; representing states with long histories of
immigration, countries with a more recent refugee arrivals, and
countries that want to keep refugees at bay and refuse to admit
even the smallest number of asylum seekers. Contributors in the
book explore the roles which national and local governments, civil
society, and community leaders play in these debates and practices,
and ask what strategies are being used to educate refugees about
European values, and to facilitate their integration. At a time
when debates on refugees and European norms continue to rage, this
book provides an important interdisciplinary analysis which will be
of interest to European policy makers, and researchers across the
fields of migration, law, philosophy, anthropology, sociology, and
political science. The Open Access version of this book, available
