Aadne Aasland (Oslo Metropolitan University) & Oleksandra Deineko (Oslo Metropolitan University & Karazin Kharkiv National University) point out that #Ukrainian refugees in #Norway often decide to leave this welfare state due to the feeling of loyalty to their homeland. More: bit.ly/4m5zqTw

Małgorzata Odolczyk addresses the governance of #refugees #integration in #Poland and argues that #gender is not discursively constructed as threatened by the influx of migrants, as it is rarely claimed to be a part of Polish national identity ‘in danger’: bit.ly/45mjTJm @cmr-warsaw.bsky.social

New: Vidra (HUN-REN, Eötvös Loránd Univ) & Messing (HUN-REN, CEU) argue that Hungarian government media instrumentalised Ukrainian refugees by emphasising its own political agenda, which contrasted with the more humanitarian focus present in independent media. Link: bit.ly/3GVGHGe

New: Zdeněk Uherek & Veronika Beranská show the growing importance of institutional ties in the destinations for Czech diaspora: although diasporas are dispersed and their members do not communicate with each other, they are capable of joint action: bit.ly/4jhoj8P @cmr-warsaw.bsky.social

New: Aneta Skorupa-Wulczyńska addresses the high dropout rate of Ukrainian minors under TP in Poland and argues that states’ failure to efficiently implement language policy in schools strongly contributes to the social disintegration of young migrants (link in a comment). @cmr-warsaw.bsky.social
