Migrants on a rubber dinghy are rescued by the vessel Responder in the Mediterranean sea

Nick Vaughan-Williams and Georg Löfflman | The Conversation
Despite being bombarded with headlines about the “migrant crisis” facing Europe, little is really known about how European citizens perceive and experience migration in their daily lives. As part of our ongoing research we’ve found that rather than linking “irregular” migration with fears of terrorism, EU citizens have a more nuanced position on border security. The people we’ve interviewed rejected both border walls and open borders as political solutions to the issue of migration into Europe.
Tougher border security has been a key pillar of the way the EU has responded to the increase in migration since 2015.
