Guest: Dr Steven Gordon | Human Sciences Research Council Chief Research Specialist for Developmental, Capable and Ethical State

South Africa is seeing a sharp rise in both immigration enforcement and migrant insecurity, with coordinated crackdowns across cities and growing fear among foreign nationals on the ground. HSRC research shows public attitudes toward migrants have hardened significantly in recent years, driven by economic and social pressures. As tensions build ahead of the 2026 local elections, Thabo Shole-Mashao speaks to Steven Gordon, Chief Research Specialist at the Human Sciences Research Council, about what is driving this shift and what it means for social cohesion and policy.
