Important organizations contributing to globalization

Detailed analysis

North African immigration to France generates hostility among Frenchmen and at the same time increased receptivity to immigration by “good” Catholic Poles: With this example the author hopes to disclose how the same religion intensifies the consciousness and awareness of differences and commonalities. In history, North Africa used to be conquered by Roman Empire and became the Roman Province of Africa, so a lot of people there remain to be Catholics. However, in France most people are Protestants. That is the reason why French people are hostile towards North African immigration and Catholic Poles are willing to receive North African immigration.
