How do institutions communicate about #migration?
With @jamesrdennison.bsky.social & @mcduarte.bsky.social, we built a database of migration communication campaigns in Europe.
Weβre expanding it now. Do you know a campaign? Please take this 1-min survey.

An extremely interesting experimental study on how the mismatch of personal characteristics of immigrants with the ingroup and civic and cultural European identity explain immigration attitudes
An interesting paper on the role of individual socio-economic status in driving anti-immigrant attitudes adding ethnic group position into the picture. Worth reading! Itβs a pity though that the authors have excluded post-communist countries from their analyses!

By providing an empirical case on immobility that does not easily fit into the voluntary/involuntary dichotomy, I argue for the need to look at the immobility outcome through the lens of a continuum of (in)voluntariness, rather than the involuntary-voluntary binary.
I do so by considering a specific case where peopleβs aspirations and capabilities are subject to restrictions imposed on emigration by their own state. To this end, I use family accounts of unrealized emigration from two emigration-restrictive contexts: communist Poland and the USSR. 3/
I show how the critique of the voluntary-involuntary binary expands to the study of immobility as an outcome of the migration decision-making process. 2/
In a new @nationalitiesp.bsky.social paper, I address the question of the distinction between voluntary and involuntary immobility under emigration restrictions. 1/ #migrationresearch #sociology doi.org/10.1017/nps.2025.10088
This descriptive report presents the results of two survey experiments conducted in BE, DE, HU, NL, PL and TR on the perception of and justifications for the existing ethnic, racial, religious and origin-based inequalities in Europe. Any feedback would be more than welcome!
