The influx of Polish migrants to many European countries after May 1, 2004 gave rise to numerous publications about Polish citizens, both in research area and in media. These texts have built a schematic image of Polish migration (ethnic group). Nevertheless, gathered materials haven’t confirmed the existence of a Polish migrant’s stereotype after the entry of Poland to the European Union. Firstly, his image is selective. Secondly, its connotations are not formally consolidated. What’s more, the image of migrants depends on many factors, among others on their country of migration, on their cultural level and on previous contacts that Poland had w ith the country of migration. In my opinion, it is necessary to make substantial efforts, both in Poland and in the countries w here Poles migrate, in order to change the image of Polish economic migrants. |
