>> Civil society is among the main claim makers and promoters of demands towards EU institutions and contributes to create and circulate narratives of contestation of and engagement with the EU. However most of these are not addressed to European institutions, as these groups have a choice to mobilise directly in Brussels, towards national or subnational institutions or both. Their choice thus does not only consider the political opportunity structures, resources and institutions at EU level but compare them to those existing in national venues. Is the expression of contentious claims hindered by opportunity structures relating to the design of EU mechanisms for engagement with civil society or to the type of national debates on the European Union? This Section addresses the following interconnected questions.

>> 7. Narratives of Contention and International Crises: Civil Society and the Refugee Crisis.
>> Chair: Tatjana Sekulic is Assistant Professor of Sociology at the University of Milan-Bicocca, where she teaches Political Sociology of Europe and Sociology of Education.
>> More than ever before, the ‘migrant question’ has become an ‘internal affair’ of the European Union. The EU has been criticised by civil society organisations for being unable to welcome a limited number of refugees, but at the same time contentious social movements rejecting the EU role have emerged. The Panel will investigate trans-national and cross-national forms of solidarity that have been emerging in support of refugees and forms of collaboration resulting in cross-borders initiatives opposing xenophobic movements against asylum seekers throughout Europe.
