This book investigates the issue of local mobilization against
asylum seekers in urban areas, which are often disproportionally
affected by complex issues related to immigration and integration,
as well as socio-economic development and growing inequalities.
Based on ethnographic research in the city of Rotterdam, it
explores the conditions under which mobilization against the
establishment of an asylum seekers' centre emerged, offering a
combined analysis of interviews, social media, and mainstream media
to demonstrate the key role played by storytelling in the
development of opposition to the arrival of asylum seekers.
Presenting a theoretical model of anti-immigration mobilization
that connects the social importance of storytelling to broader
socio-political developments and conditions, this volume will
appeal to scholars of sociology, anthropology, and politics with
interests in migration, social movements, and mobilization around
contentious issues.
