Home, nativism and migration

How do views, emotions, cultures and boundaries of home play out in the development of nativism, relative to certain minorities, in the Netherlands and beyond? This chapter analyzes the example of Muslim immigrants in the Netherlands as a concrete case of nativist exclusion - a fate they share with black Dutch citizens: both islamophobia and anti-black racism have become entangled with nativism. Moreover, this contribution discusses the main causes of the rise of nativism. As a matter of fact, migrants play an important - but embattled - role in many explanations.
