Abstract: In many contemporary societies, everyday and routine instances of positive intercultural relations abound. These include, but are not limited to, cultural exchange programmes, international trade, globalization, as well as the geopolitical organization of nation-states such as the European Union. Few contemporary public spheres around the world remain uncontaminated by the ways of life of different others (Giddens, 1991). Whilst the positive consequences of intercultural contact are seemingly obvious to many, the most recent Eurobarometer (EB83, 2015) shows that migration has risen to being the primary concern amongst European citizens. This is specifically the case in Malta, in which the present study is conducted.
