This thesis deals with refugee situation in Slovenia and Slovenian migration politics. Through theoretical concepts of securitization and orientalism it analyses the connecting of migration with the question of safety and normalization of portray of migrant as the so called Other. Slovenian government treated the refugee situation as a catastrophe and a security threat and created a context where there was very little space left for the interests of all groups of the situation. The thesis compares the characteristics of modern migration politics with the concept of total institutions. The empirical part of the paper researches the narratives between the volunteers of humanitarian organisations, to find out if the rhetoric of securitization has break into the humanitarian rhetoric and how does it connect with the humanitarian help. The system of modern migration politics might not have walls in the physical form but it does use some other basic characteristics of total institutions and with them it increases the segregation, stigma, dominations of migration system towards the refugees and their deviance.
