Summary
Public support for European Union migration policy is complex. Refugee arrivals can trigger backlash due to identity concerns, but also foster solidarity based on national interests.
Area of Science:
- Political Science
- European Studies
- Sociology
Background:
- The European Union (EU) has increasingly integrated migration policy, a core state power.
- Public support for this integration is puzzling, influenced by nativism, Euroscepticism, and the EU's role in managing immigration.
Purpose of the Study:
- To examine the impact of refugee arrivals on public support for a common European migration policy.
- To analyze these effects across 28 EU member states from 1992 to 2021.
Main Methods:
- Analysis of public support for European migration policy.
- Examination of refugee arrival data and public opinion trends across EU member states (1992-2021).
Main Results:
- Refugee arrivals can provoke an 'identitarian backlash' against integration, aligning with post-functionalist theories.
- Conversely, arrivals can also foster 'instrumental solidarity' driven by national interests, supporting collective action logic.
Conclusions:
- Public support for EU migration policy is shaped by both identity-based reactions and pragmatic, interest-driven solidarity.
- The findings highlight a dual dynamic influencing the integration of migration governance within the European Union.

Migration is long-range, seasonal movement from one region or habitat to another. This common strategy, carried out by many different organisms around the world, is an adaptive response that typically corresponds to changes in an organism’s environment, like resource availability or climate. Migrations can involve huge groups of thousands of animals as well as single individuals traveling alone and can range from thousands of kilometers to just a few hundred meters.

01:29Psychological and Sociocultural Causes of Schizophrenia
82
Schizophrenia, a complex psychiatric disorder, has been historically misunderstood. Early psychological theories attributed its origins to childhood trauma and unresponsive parenting. However, contemporary research largely rejects these notions, favoring the vulnerability-stress hypothesis. This model proposes that individuals with a genetic predisposition to schizophrenia may develop the disorder following exposure to significant environmental stressors. Notably, studies on high-risk...

4.8K
Cell migration is a process by which the cells move from one location to another, playing an essential role in embryological development, repair and regeneration, immune response, and metastasis. Cells migrate in response to chemical or mechanical signals generated by specific organs or tissues. The overall mechanism includes three steps - polarization, protrusion, and release. Polarization involves the formation of a distinct cell front and rear, which determines the direction of movement.

01:32Cytoskeletal Coordination in Cell Migration
4.7K
A migrating cell changes its shape during the cyclic events of attachment and detachment from the substratum and repositions the cell organelles correspondingly. These complex events are orchestrated by the dynamic cytoskeletal network comprising actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. Cytoskeletal crosstalk — the direct and indirect communication between the different components — is crucial for this coordination. Direct communication involves various linker...
