Abstract

This paper presents a comparative study of cities’ migration policies. By comparing four bigger and four smaller Polish cities and their approaches towards Ukrainian war refugees, we show the differences in support offered by bigger and smaller towns. Polish cities wholeheartedly and spontaneously welcomed Ukrainians fleeing their country after the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. While bigger cities start from reception and then offer integration activities, smaller ones see the presence of Ukrainians as temporary and identify their needs in terms of immediate humanitarian aid. The extra value of this original research is in documenting the specific moment when those cities have become ethnically diverse. The research includes interviews with the cities’ authorities, panel discussions, and analyses of documents and press articles.

大城市和小城市如何管理移民?波兰城市中的乌克兰战争难民
本文对城市的移民政策进行了比较研究。通过比较波兰四座大城市和四座小城市及其对乌克兰战争难民的态度,我们展示了大城市和小城市在提供支持方面的差异。2022 年 2 月俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后,波兰城市全心全意、自发地欢迎逃离本国的乌克兰人。大城市从接待开始,然后提供融合活动,而小城市则认为乌克兰人的存在是暂时的,并确定了他们在紧急人道主义援助方面的需求。这项原创性研究的额外价值在于记录了这些城市民族多样化的具体时刻。研究包括与城市当局的访谈、小组讨论以及对文件和新闻报道的分析。
