Answer 1

Answer:

Here is ur answer mate

Xenophobia

The Oxford English Dictionary definition of xenophobia is "a morbid fear of foreigners or foreign countries". In other words, it means an aversion to strangers or foreigners.

Xenophobia is a feeling or a perception based on socially constructed images and ideas and not on rational or objective facts.

A xenophobic perception of the world reduces complex social and cultural phenomena to simplistic good and bad scenarios.

"We" (the locals) = the model, the good and normal ones, the reference who everyone should look, feel, think like - versus "Them" (the strangers) = the delinquents, the threat, the disturbance, the vagrants, the violent ones, the burglars, the invasive ones, etc. "We" (the locals) are the good ones versus "Them" (the others), the bad ones. It is obvious that we attach value to the perceptions we have of others and ourselves, such as

"We" = positive and "They" = negative.

To build our identities as individuals and members of a group, an ethnic group, a nation, etc. implies becoming aware of the diversity in society and one's difference from others, which is not negative in itself as long as diversity is not perceived as threatening and the recognition of these differences is not used for political manipulation. The other should be perceived first of all as a brother or sister, as a fellow human, not as a foreigner, enemy or rival.

It should be noted that while in eastern Europe the main targets of xenophobia are likely to be members of minority groups, in many Western countries the targets tend to be immigrants and refugees, including those coming from Eastern European countries.

Answer 2

Answer:

• Xenophobia, or fear of strangers, is a broad term that encompasses any fear of someone who is not like us. Outsider hostility is frequently a reaction to fear. 1 It usually involves the belief that an individual's ingroup and outgroup are at odds.
• Xenophobia undermines the nation's economic structure that tourism could have built, as well as the socioeconomic benefits accrued to community residents through tourism enterprises.
• Because the world is a global society, various levels of government should take strong stands against various causes of xenophobia in society.
• Discrimination is the act of unfairly dividing people into groups, classes, or other categories to which they belong or are perceived to belong. People may face discrimination based on their race, gender, age, religion, disability, or sexual orientation, among other factors.
• Discrimination has an impact on people's opportunities, well-being, and sense of agency. Individuals who are subjected to discrimination on a regular basis may internalise the prejudice or stigma directed at them, resulting in feelings of shame, low self-esteem, fear, and stress, as well as poor health.
