Abstract
The aim of this chapter is to highlight the importance of migration as a topic in Czech-Polish relations, from a Czech perspective. The research presented examines three different migration situations. The first scenario relates to the movement of refugees, the second to labour-related migration facilitated by Poland and the third to the cross-border employment of Poles themselves. The research methodology relies on a content analysis of Czech media sources following a search for specific keywords related to Chechen refugee migration through Poland and the Czech Republic, allegations of human trafficking and the issue of human rights abuses raised by Czech media commentators. Regarding labour migration, the prevailing view was that Poland had been too soft in granting Schengen visas to Ukrainians. Finally, the topic of crime is examined, as debated in Kvasiny and Mlada Boleslav, towns with important automotive plants employing significant numbers of Polish workers.
