Refugees from the violence of wars & the brutality of famished lives have knocked on other people's doors since the beginning of time For the people behind the doors these uninvited guests were always strangers & strangers tend to generate fear & anxiety precisely because they are unknown Today we find ourselves confronted with an extreme form of this historical dynamic as our TV screens & newspapers are filled with accounts of a 'migration crisis' ostensibly overwhelming Europe & portending the collapse of our way of life This anxious debate has given rise to a veritable 'moral panic'
- a feeling of fear spreading among a large number of people that some evil threatens the well-being of society In this short book Zygmunt Bauman analyses the origins contours & impact of this moral panic
- he dissects in short the present-day migration panic He shows how politicians have exploited fears & anxieties that have become widespread especially among those who have already lost so much
- the disinherited & the poor But he argues that the policy of mutual separation of building walls rather than bridges is misguided It may bring some short-term reassurance but it is doomed to fail in the long run We are faced with a crisis of humanity & the only exit from this crisis is to recognize our growing interdependence as a species & to find new ways to live together in solidarity & cooperation amidst strangers who may hold opinions & preferences different from our own
