Relationship Between Terrorism and Migration Based on Numbers

Abstract

Apropos of the terror attacks in Paris (January and November 2015.), Brussel (2016.), Nizza and Germany more and more people think that the terror attacks and the connected risks are the results of the strengthening immigration. We can define the following question. Is there an actual connection or not? Scientific analysis of the data can show the relation between migration and terror attacks which does not correspond with the public opinion.

There is a decline in terror attacks and the number of the migrants in the 1st half of the last quarter of century. Ten years ago something must have happened, because both of the scales started to grow and a double wave, staged growing has developed. The minimum number of terror attacks from 2004 raised progressively until 2008. The number of the migrants started later to grow, in 2005. Until 2012 there was a stagnation in both categories. After that the number of terror attacks started a drastic grow and the growing of the number of the migrants started to grow only after a year. Therefore there is a relation between the changes of the number of the terror attacks and the migration. That means the citizens of developed countries do not have to be frighten from terror attacks, because the migrants are entering their country. Many of them must leave their home country because of the Euro-Atlantic countries generated such a situation in which the terror spread in some countries and their citizens must leave their home.

The study shows the possible role of some factors – like psychological or social psychological ones – in the establishing or culminating of the present situation, e.g terror threats and migration crisis.
