Xenophobia (Discrimination)
Last Updated by WikiWealth | Update This Page Delete This Page
In some countries there is a problem concerning xenophobic ideas.
"Racist and xenophobic ideas are deeply embedded in Europe. France is no exception where an alarmingly strident xenophobia exists among a substantial portion of the population manifest in the attitudes towards immigrants, minorities and foreigners. The trend has been to see immigrants as racial minorities and racial minorities as immigrants - - regardless of these individuals' country of origin or their citizenship - Accordingly, issues facing "immigrants" often relate to the problems of racial and ethnic minorities in France as well.
The connection between race, nationality and socio-economics is stark. The immigrants are blamed by a majority of French citizens for increases in unemployment, crime and decreasing educational standards. They are seen by nearly three-quarters of the population as more likely to commit crimes than the average French person is. Nearly 40% of the population supports forcible repatriation of unemployed immigrants, and 22% supports forcible repatriation of all immigrants.
Discrimination issues tend to provoke economic conflict as trust and rule of law are seen to disadvantage one group over another. This could result in segregated schools with less resources and segregated work places, where the best employees have trouble getting the best resources and skills."
