In recent decades, increased scholarly attention has been paid to the interactions between immigration, media coverage, framing, and the rise of populism. This paper draws on these interactions to systematically review peer-reviewed articles related to media representations of immigrants and refugees in Brazil and the United Kingdom (UK). The objective was to identify the tone used in such representations and the research methods applied in the articles. This is the first systematic literature review that compares studies on media and immigration including both Western, Educated, Industrialized, Rich, and Democratic (WEIRD) and non-WEIRD countries. This paper uses Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analysis (PRISMA) to collect, map, and systematize 47 peer-reviewed articles published in the past two decades. The findings show that, in the studies we analyzed, the tone of representation of refugees in the media in both countries is negative. Mass media underrepresent the main actors and use stereotypes and discourses of otherization. This paper contributes to our understanding of the differences between studies, including those conducted in the UK and Brazil, and calls for more comparative studies that include countries from the global south and global north. It also demonstrates the standardization of frames and tone of representation on immigration in both countries, suggesting similar patterns across different countries. En las últimas décadas, se ha prestado una mayor atención académica a las interacciones entre la inmigración, la cobertura de los medios de comunicación, los tipos de encuadres y el aumento del populismo. Este trabajo revisa sistemáticamente un grupo de artículos revisados por pares cuya temática son las representaciones mediáticas de los inmigrantes y los refugiados en Brasil y el Reino Unido con el fin de identificar el tono de dichas representaciones y los métodos de investigación utilizados. Esta es la primera revisión bibliográfica sistemática que compara estudios sobre los medios de comunicación y la inmigración que incluye una muestra de países del sur y del norte global. Este trabajo utiliza las directrices de PRISMA para recopilar, mapear y sistematizar 47 artículos revisados por pares y publicados en las últimas dos décadas. Encontramos tres tipos de tonos en los medios de comunicación analizados en los estudios de ambos países, ordenados aquí de mayor a menor frecuencia: negativo, neutro y positivo. Los medios de comunicación infrarrepresentan a los principales actores y utilizan estereotipos y discursos que trazan una frontera entre nosotros/as y los/as otros/as. Este trabajo contribuye a nuestra comprensión de las diferencias entre los estudios realizados en el Reino Unido y Brasil, y reclama más estudios comparativos que incluyan países del sur y del norte global. También demuestra la existencia de patrones de representación similares en ambos países.
Depois do New Journalism, houve uma nova aproximação entre jornalismo e narrativa, a partir de profissionais, que procuraram se utilizar de técnicas literárias para a produção de suas reportagens. A influência de tal movimento pode ser vista até hoje, em produtos que procuram se afastar do formato tradicional. Este é o caso da websérie “Conception”, produzida pelo New York Times, que traz a história sobre a maternidade de seis mulheres, por meio de animações curtas. Este artigo procura entender como a maternidade é representada na primeira temporada da websérie, a partir da análise de conteúdo, de Bardin (2011). Evidenciou-se que são abordadas temáticas diversificadas, a partir dos testemunhos, com a perspectiva das próprias personagens, amplificadas pelo uso de recursos multimídia, uma narrativa híbrida, ou jornalismo de animação.
The main objective of this article is to conduct an investigation into the representation of immigrants in public media discourse in Brazil, with the intention of understanding the use of stereotyped terms, as well as their frameworks. The work performs a literature review on media discourse related to immigration and its effects, focusing on Brazilian news coverage. The method of analysis and research was configured from the survey of academic productions in scientific journals in the country, between the years 2010 and 2019. It seeks to understand how the frameworks and representations are capable of producing meanings, especially when dealing with immigration as a fundamental problem.
