Abstract
JIMENEZ-GARCIA, Juan Ramón and JIMENEZ VICIOSO, Juan Ramón. Migrations, Stereotypes, and Rumors: Combating the Xenophobic Hydra in Andalucía. Trab. soc. [online]. 2019, vol.21, n.2, pp.53-79. ISSN 2256-5493. https://doi.org/10.15446/ts.v21n2.74641.
The article discusses the project of the Andalucía Anti-Rumors Network, created to combat prejudices, stereotypes, and rumors related to migrations. It describes the characteristics of migrations in Andalucía, the results of opinion polls regarding this social reality, and the manner in which certain stereotypes that are reproduced generate attitudes of rejection, thus seriously affecting coexistence in a multicultural society. We conclude that the Network needs to be strengthened in order to combat xenophobia and racism and to achieve the full social inclusion of this new citizenship, through pedagogical and intercultural education actions.
Keywords : Andalucía; interculturalism; prejudices; rumors; stereotypes; xenophobia.
