Résumé

De nombreux États ont connu une montée de la xénophobie et de l’hostilité à l’égard des réfugiés, ainsi qu’un cadrage de ces derniers comme une grave menace sécuritaire ou criminelle dans le discours public. S’appuyant sur une enquête transnationale originale menée auprès d’adultes au Canada, cet article explore le lien entre la peur de la criminalité et les perceptions négatives à l’égard des réfugiés. Ses résultats démontrent que même en tenant compte d’autres explications, les personnes qui ont une plus grande peur de la criminalité sont significativement plus susceptibles d’exprimer des sentiments anti-réfugiés. Ces résultats ont des implications pour la compréhension des défis actuels dans le maintien du soutien domestique à la protection des réfugiés et soulignent l’importance de dissiper les mythes selon lesquels les réfugiés sont une source de criminalité.
