This work reveals the identity-based and protectionist mechanisms of populations facing migrants. The outcry against a village that should welcome asylum-seeking families in the heart of the city is exacerbated by the economic situation and fear. In contrast, the State Councilor in charge advocates an integration policy that is difficult to defend in the affected neighborhoods.
