Negative stereotypes about immigrants and strangers exist in all societies and countries. For many, immigrants represent a threat and a challenge to the ingrained habits and traditions of the majority, which leads to friction. To analyze these majority-minority encounters, this study uses perspectives from sub-fields of theoretical study that are closely related but rarely, if ever, brought together. These include perceptions of socio-cultural risk; stereotype formation, scapegoating, and enemy images; mass media reporting on immigrants; and the study of everyday practices or the mundane. Using three neighboring small towns in Sweden as case studies, Stories about Strangers follows the local discourse, primarily through the daily newspaper of the communities, to assess and evaluate the views and/or prejudices about immigrants.

This title was first published in 2001. This text looks at what being Russian means to a Russian politician, the country they live in and what they think it ought to be. It is a study of self-images in Russia, pertaining to the Russian state policy and the cognitive and affective strands regarding Russia's past, its friends and foes externally and internally, and Russia's role in the international arena, as well as key issues related to internal developments. This book attempts to assess to what extent a new sense of identity emerged in Russia during the decade after the dissolution of the Soviet Union. In this book Petersson argues that the development of a civic national identity, centered around belonging to the state and not an ethnic community, is the only viable option to prevent further disintegration and bring about stability and cohesion for the country.

This book explores language conflicts in Soviet successor states: Ukraine, the Russian North Caucasus, Georgia, and the Baltics. Current violent developments in these multiethnic countries with their shared legacies of Russian domination highlight the intertwining of language with conflict and war, reflecting confrontation and challenges to peace. It is shown how core values attached to language in identity formation and feelings of belonging or marginalization, along with attitudes to language use by the in-group in contrast to others, are easily subject to politicization. Forced migration, language erasure and shift, central in today’s post-Soviet conflicts, are also experienced by minorities in the Russian North Caucasus—such as the Circassians—based on their history of Russian colonization. The book will be of interest to readers in a wide range of fields, including sociolinguistics, language policy, and language contact, as well as identity politics, migration linguistics, state and nation building, area studies, post-Soviet and European studies, political science, international relations, and peace and conflict studies.

Crisis and migration : implications of the Eurozone crisis for perceptions, politics, and policies of migration

The ongoing Eurozone crisis frequently makes front-page news, but aspects of its deeper implications are more rarely discussed in media. In Crisis and Migration the authors analyse the current situation and its effects on politics and migration. In case studies they show how the economic downturn affects daily life on a local, national, and European level. The authors reflect on the crisis from mutually rewarding micro-to-macro perspectives. Their focus is geared away from the crisis as an acute phenomenon instead they investigate it as a potential symptom of a chronic decline of the EU in relation to other regions. It is imperative to address the long-term consequences of the development and that scholars engage in that critical discussion. Alongside its senior authors, Crisis and Migration features contributors of a new generation of scholars who are likely to be prominent in the field in years to come. The book is vital reading for researchers in migration and European studies, policymakers, and journalists.

De senaste årens långvariga eurozonkris inom EU har ofta gett upphov till förstasidesnyheter. Däremot har dess mera långsiktiga implikationer mera sällan diskuterats i media. I Crisis and Migration analyserar författarna såväl situationen idag som dess effekter på europeisk politik i allmänhet och migrationspolitik i synnerhet. I ett antal fallstudier från olika EU-länder belyser de hur den ekonomiska nedgången påverkat det dagliga livet och dagspolitiken på lokal, nationell och europeisk nivå. Författarna diskuterar krisen från olika, ömsesidigt berikande, analysnivåer, från makro till mikro. De menar att krisen bör ses som ett symptom på en mera stadigvarande nedgång för EU i relation till andra regioner snarare än som ett akut och övergående fenomen. Det anser att de långsiktiga konsekvenserna av detta måste analyseras i samhällsdebatten och att det är nödvändigt att forskare engagerar sig i en kritisk diskussion. Förutom väletablerade akademiska författare medverkar i Crisis and Migration en ny generation forskare vilka kan bli tongivande inom fältet inom några år. Boken utgör angelägen läsning för forskare och studenter inom migrationspolitik och Europastudier, liksom för politiker, praktiker och journalister. ———— The ongoing Eurozone crisis frequently makes front-page news, but aspects of its deeper implications are more rarely discussed in media.

Ageing & sexing of migratory East Asian passerines

Kan man könsbestämma tajgablåstjärtar på hösten? Och vad var det för ålder på större piplärkan du hittade häromdagen? Den här boken är ett måste för såväl ringmärkare som alla hängivna skådare som gillar fältbestämning av felflugna sibiriska fåglar! Aldrig tidigare har våra älskade östliga juveler behandlats på ett så här detaljerat sätt!

Det här är en rikt illustrerad fotoguide med över 1400 bilder på handhållna fåglar. Bokens innehåll, både foton och den grundliga texten, härstammar från det samarbetsprojekt som de svenska och kinesiska ringmärkningscentralerna genomförde i Beidaihe (nordöstra Kina) under åren 2011–2013. Som en följd av detta är boken tvåspråkig med engelska i vänster- och kinesiska i högerspalten.

Som titeln anger så beskrivs ålders- och könsbestämning av flyttande ostasiatiska tättingar varav merparten dessutom har påträffats i västeuropa. Boken knyter på ett pedagogiskt sätt ihop ruggningsmönster (hur och när fjädrarna byts) med dräktkaraktärer som ligger till grund för att avgöra en individs ålder och kön under såväl höst som vår. Brödtextens innehåll följs sedan upp i det rika fotomaterialet där bildtexterna tar upp de viktigaste fjäderdetaljerna som vägleder läsaren genom ålders- och könsbestämningsprocessen. För åtskilliga av de arter som behandlas presenteras här helt nya och tidigare okända uppgifter, och för andra arter rättas tidigare felaktiga uppfattningar till.

Varje artpresentation inleds med ett antal (upp till fem) helkroppsbilder för att spegla artens dräktvariation. Ett kort textstycke summerar häcknings- och vinterutbredning liksom förekomsten vid Beidaihe. Därefter följer en sektion som avhandlar artbestämningen (särskiljande från andra snarlika arter).

Utöver bokens huvudkapitel finns också ett antal appendix där artbestämningen av särskilt svåra artgrupper diskuteras mer i detalj. Och i inledningen hittar man en ovanligt lättförståelig översikt av tättingarnas ruggning, och hur denna kan användas för att åldersbestämma fåglarna.

Behandlar följande arter (alfabetsordning): amurbuskskvätta, amursångare, amursävsparv, amurtrast, bergfink, blåhake, blånäktergal, blåvit flugsnappare, brun törnskata, brunsångare, bruntrast, drillnäktergal, drillsångare, dvärgsparv, dvärgsävsparv, entita, glasögonflugsnappare, gråhalsad trast, gråhuvad sparv, gråryggig trast, grönsiska, gulbrynad sparv, guldtrast, gyllensparv, hedpiplärka, kinesisk trastsångare, kungsfågel, kungsfågelsångare, mandarinmes, mingtrast, mugimakiflugsnappare, nordsångare, praktsparv, rubinnäktergal, rödbrun sparv, rödkindad sparv, rödstupig piplärka, rödtrast, sibirisk flugsnappare, sibirisk järnsparv, sibirisk lundsångare, sibirisk piplärka, sibirisk trast, starrsångare, större piplärka, svartbrynad rörsångare, svartryggig rödstjärt, tajgablåstjärt, tajgaflugsnappare, tajgasångare, tallsparv, tjocknäbbad sångare, tristramsparv, träsksångare, tundrapiplärka, videsparv, videsångare, vitbrynad narcissflugsnappare, vitstrupig stentrast, ängssparv, östlig kronsångare, östlig talgoxe.
