More in Common took shape from work undertaken since 2016 to understand why so many societies were dividing around debates about their identity and belonging, and why people were being increasingly persuaded to see debates about immigration, refugees and diversity through the lens of ‘us-versus-them’. Since then, we have broadened our research agenda and incorporated several layers of social psychology research to provide a deeper analysis of the different factors contributing to polarization and social fracturing.

More in Common’s published studies of public attitudes in several European countries and the United States are already regarded as among the most insightful and actionable analyses of public opinion. Our team also published papers on polarization, social media and the psychology of political behavior.

The transformation of Polish from an emigration country into an immigration country is one of the greatest challenges faced by Polish society. It naturally evokes mixed feelings in Poles. Although the public space is dominated by narratives referring primarily to negative emotions, such as anxiety and suspicion, our research shows that Poles also see great positive potential in immigration, which, if used well, can significantly contribute to the development of our country.
