Newcomers' self-assessed visibility and their perceptions of discrimination. The case of Turks and Syrians in Germany
Using survey data collected among recent Turkish and Syrian immigrants in Germany, we examine the relationship between newcomers' self-assessed phenotypic visibility, their level of education, and their perceptions of discrimination. Theoretically, we argue that individuals who can be identified by visible cues, such as skin colour or a headscarf, face more and more persistent discrimination than others. In addition, according to the 'integration…
Highly skilled and highly skeptical? How education and origin shape newcomers' relationship with their new home
This article explores how level of education and region of origin (EU versus non-EU) shape newcomers' perceptions of being welcome and treated fairly upon arrival, as well as their feelings of closeness and belonging to majority members and their long-term commitment to their new country of residence. Our results show that the impact of these factors - education and EU background - varies between these dimensions in shaping individuals' attitudes…
Consequences of religious and secular boundaries among the majority population for perceived discrimination among Muslim minorities in Western Europe
While the concept of symbolic boundaries and ethnic boundary-making is well established in social research, the direct consequences of these boundaries for the integration of migrants have not received much attention. This paper thus analyses whether religious and secular boundaries of national belonging among the majority population have an impact on perceived discrimination among Muslim minorities in Western Europe. To analyse this linkage, dat…
Explaining Differences in the Salience of Religion as a Symbolic Boundary of National Belonging in Europe
This article analyses how differences in the salience of religion as a symbolic boundary of the nation among the majority populations in Europe can be explained. Following previous studies, I consider individual- and country-level characteristics based on theories of social identity and ethnic threat in my analyses to explain the variation. In addition, I include the institutional relationship between church and state and historical manifestation…
Repertoires of national boundaries in France and Germany—within‐country cleavages and their political consequences
This article analyses how members of the majority population in France and Germany define membership in the nation and how they relate to the various civic, cultural, or ethnic visions of national belonging available in the cultural repertoires of historical models, institutional arrangements, and elite discourses. To scrutinize within‐country differences in the configurations of the symbolic boundaries of national belonging, this article applies…
