Migratory crisis in the eyes of the party leaders during the parliamentary campaign in Poland in 2015
Journal Title: Political Preferences - Year 2016, Vol 2016, Issue 13
Abstract
The issue of the migratory crisis was one of the most important ones during the parliamentary campaign in October 2015 in Poland. An overview of the crucial comments and stances of the party leaders, together with the verification of their election results may point towards a strategy, displayed in the public discourse, opposing receiving the refugees in Poland. A sweeping victory of Law and Justice, together with a good result made by KUKIZ’15 suggests that the electorate wants to support the nationalistic attitudes and potentially to protect Poland against a flood of refugees. The political failure of the left-wing parties with no representation in Sejm, was perceived by many experts as a total failure of the multi-cultural policy and openness to refugees.
