Western world is facing a great influx of refugees from war effected areas of Middle East. During 2016 the ratio if refugees became the highest and millions of refugees entered into Western world. Once they arrived the concern of their integration into the new society appeared.
The basic differences between the refugees and the host society are religion, culture and language. These Middle Eastern Muslims try to integrate themselves into the new society despite of their differences. They assimilate into the new social stream by adopting new ways. However, they never give up their old religio-cultural values wholly but they try to adopt the new ones.
There are many examples that one can see in Western world that the women who are not allowed to step out of the houses back in their own countries, are now working shoulder to shoulder with their men. They accept the democratic values in the host countries and abide by all the laws that they are supposed to do.
It can be concluded that the behavior of the refugees can altered by the predominant society and the living conditions.
