Ivan Ramadan Department of Middle Eastern Studies (Faculty of Philosophy and Arts, University of West Bohemia in Pilsen, Czech Republic) After the Velvet Revolution in 1990 there was only around 35 thousand foreigners living in the Czech republic who had a permanent residence or long-term residence in the country. The rise of the number of foreigners between 2011 until 2015, when they were around 465 thousand, could not be however linked to the stormy events which waged in the Middle East and are still lasting until nowadays. 5 years after the so called Arab Spring started, there were only 148 receivers of the international protection, of whom 101 were Iraqis and only 5 Syrians and no other Middle Eastern refugees. This Lecture aims to present the preception of Arab, Kurdish and other Middle-eastern refugees by the majority of the Czech society and popular models of thinking related to the Migration from the Middle East after 2011. It tries to show, that the intensity of the public debate on refugees and migration crisis in the Czech republic (in case of some, a panic), doesn´t correspond to the real number of refugees, who arrived to the Czech Republic since 2011, when the so called Arab spring in the Arab countries started.
