摘要

Armed conflicts are associated with the displacement of multitudes of people forced to flee from the comfort of their homes to other countries as refugees. The countries or communities to which they flee have their own identities characterized by similar norms, ethnicity, religion, and taboos. Hosting refugees who differ in social identity creates a social characterization of ‘us’ (hosting communities) and ‘them’ (refugees), which is likely to affect social behavior between the two groups.
