On the international as well as the national level, socialist organisations and prominent socialists had to shape their positions. This thesis examines the connection between reformist, nationalist, and anti-immigration sentiments within the Second International by comparing the views of the German Social Democratic Party (SPD) and the Socialist Party of America (SPA) on the issue of immigration.Show less

Firstly, it examines the relationships inside the European Community and member states from a theoretical perspective to propose several hypotheses to explain who dictated European migration policy. To test these hypotheses based on empirical research, chapters 2 and 3 will look at the positions of the European Commission and the European member states respectively.It seems more likely that when considering our hypotheses, the perspective of member states dictating European Community policy was more likely. Even though this paper established that the European Commission had received a competence in migration policy, the ones ultimately in power were the member states themselves.Show less

Listening to the individual voices of refugees, the paper attempts to shift the often negative images of them. In doing so, this study aims to remind readers of the importance of poststructuralism to bring more positivity to the seemingly unchangeable images of refugees. The study employs the theoretical guidance of Michel Foucault as a heuristic tool to analyse the media discourse from the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and aims to contribute the poststructuralist works for the field of refugee studies.Show less
