“…Although there was no clear correlation between the number of refugees and the increase in the level of terrorism, and even though United Nations representatives were provided with evidence to the contrary of this correlation, the level of perceived threat by Muslim migrants and the level of perceived threat in Europe dramatically increased hostility toward these migrants (Stanek, 2017; Zobi, 2017). Additionally, refugees are perceived not only as a threat to security but also as a cultural and economic threat, posing problems for maintaining and preserving cultural norms and rules, as well as the economic well-being of the country (Bertoli et al, 2016).…”

The purpose of this study was to examine and predict conflict styles in an intercultural conflict from personal values and intercultural communication apprehension (ICA). We used a comparative approach, employing data (N = 455) from Germany (N = 221) and Russia (N = 234) to establish some common patterns and provide a more detailed insight into this phenomenon. As predicted, both countries displayed common patterns of relationships. The self-transcendence values were positively associated with the preference for a collaborating style. Self-enhancement values were positively correlated with the preference for a dominating style, and conservation values with the preference for an avoiding style. A high level of ICA was an obstacle to the adoption of a collaborating style. These findings were discussed within the historical and sociocultural context of these 2 countries.

The migration phenomena of human populations is a well-known issue in social, economic, and sociophysics studies. A common effect of non-forced migration is the fact that important cities gain population over the first years and become overpopulated. Therefore, neighboring cities receive all migration and end up geographically merging with the important ones. Several studies have addressed the social and economic reasons behind this effect, but a mathematical model has been lacking. Here, we construct a migration complex network with population and migration dynamics and carry out an indirect influences analysis of those dynamics. Using this, we can measure the effect of migration on population growth across cities. The results show that the analysis of the indirect influences reveals interesting facts about the mentioned migration effect and address the measurement of this. Given this, urban planners and city administrations can make use of these findings to improve their migratory research.

Refugees are the main actors of a fundamental issue in which many states are now in a dilemma: On the one hand welfare of citizens and national interests, on the other hand, there is help to people who take refuge in the borders of other countries for compelling reasons such as war and famine, and to recognize their refugee status. One of the main factors shaping the migration policies of states is their position towards this critical dilemma. Of course, it should not be concluded that the countries dealing with the refugee issue can only act on two attitudes (the unconditional admission of refugees or the complete rejection of refugee status). There are also countries that try to manage the support process with economic assistance, although they accept refugees very limited numbers at their borders. What we mean here is that governments shape refugee policies around two basic discourse forms. In the face of the refugee issue, the form of discourse argues that states should ensure the welfare of their citizens or keep the current level of welfare as a priority, focuses on the economic, social and cultural problems that migrants and refugees can create. If the situation of refugees is considered as a struggle to survive and it is accepted that these people have to seek asylum in order to survive, it will be easier to recognize their social and legal status. Throughout our study, we will focus on the manifestations of these two forms of discourse and try to evaluate the issue of refugee being in the present age in terms of host society and displaced people.
