“…Such structurally violent policies and guidelines unleash discriminatory practices which objectify and 'other' migrants. 'Othering' can be defined as the ways in which majority and minority groups are socially constructed and how societies establish identity categories (Tanyas, 2016;Torres, 2006;Udah & Singh, 2019). Our results indicate that 'othering' in the NHS occurred through document checks, charging for secondary care, inappropriate data sharing and other migration enforcement concerns (similar arguments have been made by Chiarenza et al, 2019;Nellums, Rustage, Hargreaves, Friedland, Miller, & Hiam, 2018;Russell et al, 2019).…”

“…For instance, scholars such as Crenshaw (1989Crenshaw ( , 1991 have used the concept of othering to explore race and gender dimensions of violence against women of colour. Further, Elsrud (2008) and Tanyas (2016), building on the othering concept, discovered how immigrants in Sweden and Turkey, respectively, were accorded negative cultural and ethnic positions as opposed to natives of those countries. Moreover, Armstrong et al (2011) recognised that the use of SIP questions the ability of the inclusive process for a truly transformative approach to educational change at both the school and the whole education system levels.…”

“…The othering is an action by which an individual or group becomes mentally classified in somebody's mind as ‘not one of us’ (Spivak, 1985). In relation to inclusive education, the process of othering is described by some authors (Elsrud, 2008; Tanyas, 2016) that it has uplifted and kept the cultural selves into a favourable position. Spivak (1985) states that othering leads to naming and grouping of people according to individual attributes, which could lead to discrimination of different groups of people.…”
