Abstract

ABSTRACT The security debate concerning the recent wave of migrants into Europe has been contentious. This article examines the impact of recent migration flows into Europe and assesses the veracity of political rhetoric that migrants from Muslim states were reputedly responsible for the uptick in terrorist attacks. After conducting a series of quantitative tests that control for a variety of factors, we find little evidence that the increase in the number of migrants corresponded to an increase in terrorism during the European crisis. Our findings, therefore, contain important implications in terms of migration policy and counterterrorism tactics.

欧洲移民与恐怖主义:人道主义危机、政治辞令还是务实政策?
关于最近涌入欧洲的移民潮的安全争论一直很有争议。本文考察了最近移民流入欧洲的影响,并评估了政治言论的真实性,即来自穆斯林国家的移民据称要对恐怖袭击的增加负责。在进行了一系列控制各种因素的定量测试后,我们发现几乎没有证据表明,在欧洲危机期间,移民人数的增加与恐怖主义的增加相对应。因此,我们的研究结果在移民政策和反恐策略方面具有重要意义。
