dc.description.abstractThis bachelor thesis is focused on civil society’s response to the European refugee crisis in Italy. Particularly from 2014 onward, a rise in arrivals of migrants and refugees via land and sea has created large tensions. While the European Union and national governments responded with securitisation, fortifying Europe’s outer borders and criminalising migration, many citizens reacted differently. Solidarians all over Europe came to the aid of migrants in diverse ways. With the securitisation of borders and criminalisation of migrants, solidarians seem to be increasingly criminalised as well. This research looks at this discrepancy between the solidarian response and the strengthened border policies, using a cross-sectional case study and a grounded theory approach. The differences in coping strategies between the various geosocial solidarity initiatives are analysed and the ways in which these affect their borderwork practices and their ability to reach their goals are investigated.
