«Flüchtlinge: Opfer - Bedrohung - Helden» is the political philosophy essay by Heidrun Friese, published by Transcript Verlag in paperback (142 pages, in German).
Verbal images shape the debate about those seeking protection in Europe. Friese analyzes three figures of the refugee: the stranger as a threat, which feeds populist racism; the victim of humanitarianism; and the hero who crosses borders. Against these images that deny their subjectivity, she proposes a view that recognizes their complexity.
Published in 2017, the essay carries the subtitle «Zur politischen Imagination des Fremden» and belongs to the XTexte series.
For readers interested in political philosophy, sociology of migration and the European debate on refugees.
