Securitisation of Minorities as a Political Factor

  • Valery Engel

摘要

This section explores the process of securitisation, where minorities are framed as security threats in public and political discourse. It examines the narratives and mechanisms used by right-wing and populist forces across different countries to marginalise these groups, portraying them as disloyal, culturally alien, or criminogenic. The chapter argues that securitisation fuels societal radicalisation, undermines social cohesion and serves as a powerful electoral tool.
