This article attempts to look at migration from an anthropological perspective, especially at the issues of integration and the changes seen in the identity of migrants. Motivation and readiness for change, along with the existing stereotypes and personal experiences of a migrant, constitute successful adaptation in a new place of residence. One of the most important elements of integration in a new society is the knowledge of this group’s language, it facilitates entering the community and is very important in terms of the reproduction of one’s identity in the new place of residence. The recreation of one’s identity is necessary, because a migrant is placed in a completely new reality in which his / her previous social role and status are different. The creation of identity happens in between the two concepts of familiarity and foreignness. The description of the above-mentioned topics was based on the partially structured interviews with Brazilians living in Poznań for at least 2 years. The bibliographies included form the basis of the anthropological analysis of migration.

Um dos principais reflexos da chegada de milhares de venezuelanos em Roraima é a emergência das ações xenófobas por parte dos brasileiros que aí residem. Tal contexto tem colocado em che-que, uma vez mais, a ideia de cordialidade do povo brasileiro. Recorrendo às falas de alguns ato-res brasileiros divulgadas em portais de notícias vinculados a Roraima, às publicações dos sujei-tos em perfis específicos do Facebook e ainda utilizando como alicerce metodológico a teoria simmeliana acerca da forma e conteúdo, buscamos extrair os pressupostos que estão envoltos na materialização da xenofobia frente aos venezuelanos. O objetivo foi tentar entender o que está se passando em Roraima, categorizando as ações xenófobas entre o “menos extremo” e o “mais ex-tremo”, e identificando os pressupostos (a priori) que estão balizando a construção da xenofobia enquanto configuração social. Notamos que a xenofobia tem se apresentado como fruto de um conjunto de pressupostos específicos manifestados por alguns brasileiros, que passam a culpabi-lizar os venezuelanos pelo aumento da violência, criminalidade, etc. Percebemos também que a xenofobia materializa-se em dimensões que vão desde a violência simbólica (xingamentos, por exemplo) até ações mais extremas, isto é, a violência física contra os imigrantes (atentados e homicídios).

One of the main reflections on the arrival of thousands of Venezuelans in Roraima is the emergence of xenophobic actions by the Brazilians who live there. This context has once again chal-lenged the idea of Brazilian people’s cordiality. Using speeches by some Brazilian actors publis-hed in news outlets linked to Roraima, posts on specific Facebook profiles on the subject and utilizing Simmelian theory about form and content as a methodological foundation, we seek to ex-pose the assumptions that are involved in the materialization of xenophobia against Venezue-lans. The objective was to try to understand what is happening in Roraima, categorize xenopho-bic actions as "less extreme" and "more extreme", and identify the (a priori) assumptions that are marking the construction of xenophobia as a social configuration. We note that xenophobia has come as a result of a set of specific assumptions manifested by some Brazilians, who are blaming Venezuelans for the increase in violence, crime, etc. We also realize that xenophobia materiali-zes in dimensions that range from symbolic violence (e.g. name-calling) to more extreme ac-tions, that is, physical violence against immigrants (attacks and homicides).
