Abstract

Animus toward refuge seekers and unauthorized migrants as well as Islamophobia have propelled anti-immigrant forces, political parties, and candidates into unprecedented prominence in recent years in Western Europe, the United States, and other high immigrant-receiving countries. This intolerance has contributed to the rise of right-wing parties in France, the Netherlands, Hungary, Austria, and other countries, and has impacted the Brexit vote and the US presidential elections of 2016.
