Abstract:
|
Against the backdrop of the specific claim that the events of September 11th have transformed and/or is largely driving politics and policy within the major immigration-receiving countries this paper poses two related questions. First, has European public opinion objectively become more illiberal on immigration-related questions since September 11, 2001? Specifically, is it significantly less receptive to new immigration and/or less accommodating towards settled immigrants than previously? Second and more subjectively, are Europe’s political elites under unusual pressure to align public policy with the preferences of an increasingly illiberal electorate? Are the parameters of immigration policy making in Europe in the post-September 11th era more circumscribed by public opinion than previously? In addressing these questions this paper pushes as far back as possible in the respective national public opinion records, with special attention paid to the pattern of British, French, and Spanish public attitudes before and after September 11. |

On this point see Layton-Henry (1984: 27). 7 As cited in Messina (1989: 12-13). 8 9 Exceptions include Denmark (Bjørkland and Andersen 1999) Finland (Kilpi 2008) and Sweden (Demker 2007). 10 This conclusion is generally in keeping with the finding that popular attitudes toward European Muslims were not significantly transformed by September 11th (Fetzer and Soper 2003: 256). 11 Yet even on this score the survey evidence post-September 11th favors continuity of opinion.
