Refugees: aliens or citizens - the burden of integration

One of the major problems in Croatia today is the integration of a number of refugees and displaced persons who resettled in Croatia. As stressed by many authors forced displacement is not only a product of political instability, but can create and perpetuate it, and the willingness of the established people to accept newcomers is crucial while the cultural differences between the two groups should not be too great. The analysis of the views and attitudes of both refugees/displaced persons and their hosts toward their integration, indicate the need for actions and projects in terms of peace building, reconciliation, teaching about human rights and the development of multicultural and intercultural processes which would enable the co-existence of various cultural or ethnic groups.
