Abstract

The article explores the issue of Maghrebi migration to Europe in the context of potential external and internal challenges it poses to European states and societies. Special attention is given to the „push‟ factors that underpin emigration of Maghrebis. The results of research highlight that migration from Maghreb to Europe is persistent. The current military, political and socioeconomic dynamics in the region imply that the Maghrebi migration flow will increase in the future. The article concentrates on reasons for radicalization of some members of Maghrebi immigrant communities in Europe. The findings indicate that Arab or Muslim background of immigrants is not the root cause for radicalization. Despite the fact that some elements of the Islamic doctrine are exploited by Islamist organizations, they mostly resonate with youth of second-generation migrant communities giving them a certain „frame‟ and purpose for their protest. The main conclusion is that the most serious threat to the European security comes not from the large-scale influx of migrants, which will be continue, but marginalization of big parts of migrant communities, most and foremost born and raised in Europe, as they are the ones that tend to get radicalized in the first place.

马格里布移民:欧洲面临的外部和内部挑战

这篇文章探讨了马格里布移民到欧洲的问题，以及它对欧洲国家和社会构成的潜在外部和内部挑战。特别关注支持马格里布移民的“推动”因素。研究结果表明，从马格里布到欧洲的移民持续存在。该地区目前的军事、政治和社会经济动态表明，马格里布人的移民流量在未来将增加。这篇文章集中讨论了欧洲马格里布移民社区一些成员激进化的原因。研究结果表明，移民的阿拉伯或穆斯林背景并不是激进化的根本原因。尽管伊斯兰教义的一些元素被伊斯兰组织利用，但它们大多与第二代移民社区的年轻人产生共鸣，为他们的抗议提供了一定的“框架”和目的。主要结论是，对欧洲安全最严重的威胁不是来自移民的大规模涌入（这种情况将继续下去），而是大部分移民社区的边缘化，他们最重要的是在欧洲出生和长大，因为他们一开始就倾向于激进化。
