Acknowledgements

Finally, it is worth noting that the editors of Politikon were kind enough to offer us a special edition focusing on xenophobia and civil society—for which we are extremely grateful—but gave us slightly less than three months to get the articles finalized, reviewed, revised, and submitted—for which we are slightly less effusive in our thanks. Nonetheless, authors—and peer reviewers in particular, from all over the world—rose to the challenge and working at high speed to ensure that this special edition could be realized, and my deep gratitude is extended to all of them. Finally, we are deeply grateful to Gerald Kraak of The Atlantic Philanthropies, who is a deeply insightful and progressive donor, and whose dogged commitment to actively promoting and protecting human rights for all made the entire project possible.
