This article examines institutional encounters in the light of trust in the contemporary welfare state context of Finland from the perspectives of young forced migrants. Young persons with a forced migration background constitute a growing group in Nordic welfare societies, and institutional encounters are an essential part of their everyday life. Still, little is known about how trust is shaped and experienced in this context. Drawing on 12 interviews with young forced migrants, I examine how trust and distrust is shaped in the series of institutional encounters. In my analysis, I identify two dimensions of facework interactions affecting trust: the administrative and emotional dimension. Thus, the study contributes to a deeper understanding of how the dynamic, multifaceted, contextualized concept of trust is shaped in the series of institutional encounters migrants face as part of migration governance.

Colour blindness is a concept that is established in the US context, and it has gained increased attention among European scholars. Yet we find less studies in the European context that measure colour-blind attitudes and show its prevalence among different groups. Therefore, this paper examines the prevalence of colour-blind attitudes among Swedish welfare professionals’ and how these attitudes are associated with anti-immigration attitudes but also social desirability. To this end, survey data is examined with a regression analysis. Welfare professionals who report greater levels of colour-blind attitudes are simultaneously more likely to report greater levels of anti-immigration attitudes. This paper thereby tests how colour-blind attitudes, a concept from the US context, can be applied to a Swedish welfare institutional context and finds convergent results.

This article examines an issue that highlights intimate connections between minority and migration politics, namely politics of religious accommodation. It does so through analyzing a conflict between the Copenhagen municipality and a Jewish kindergarten that resulted in an enforced privatization. Conceptualizing it as a part of wider struggles over recognition (broadly conceived) of migration-pertaining difference in Denmark, I analyze the case through Nancy Fraser's (2009) theory of justice as comprised of singular but inter-related arenas of (cultural) recognition, (institutional-political) representation and (economic) redistribution, bound together by a norm of participatory parity. I argue that while the negotiation was characterized by instances of both misrepresentation and misrecognition, the municipality's preference for the institution's privatization reflects not only a return to the traditional preference for the privatization of difference, but also the centrality of the redistributive arena of justice in Denmark. If the latter tends to be in welfare contexts understood by the majority as always already expressing recognition, from a minority perspective the state's embrace of such a recognition-through-redistribution approach can entail an injury of lacking or erroneous recognition . Whether the minority will perceive a single case as such an injury depends on the broader tenor of politics of minority and immigrant difference at the time.
