On the other hand, the media defined also “symbolic internal … Show more

“…It is true that already in the '90 and in the '00, but especially from 2011 onwards Italy has become a destination for asylum seekers and other migrants coming from the Southern coast of the Mediterranean Sea, in particular through the so-called 'central corridor' from Libya (Caselli 2019;D'Angelo 2019). In public opinion, the terms 'immigrants', "landed people" and 'asylum seekers' have started to be used interchangeably, and the dominant perception has become that of Italy as a country 'under invasion' by unwanted immigrants (Bruno 2016;Dimitriadis 2019). It can be seen as an example of the "gap between evidence and politics" (Baldwin-Edwards, Blitz and Crawley 2019: 2147).…”

“…Estos objetivos son: (a) identificar las unidades temáticas llamadas encuadres; (b) investigar las condiciones previas que producen los encuadres; (c) examinar cómo los encuadres noticiosos activan, e interactúan con el conocimiento principal de un individuo que afecta a sus interpretaciones, solicitudes de información, tomas de decisiones y evaluaciones; y (d) examinar cómo los encuadres noticiosos modelan procesos sociales como la opinión pública y los debates sobre temas políticos. (D 'Angelo, 2002, p.873) La cuestión de la inmigración, la xenofobia y el racismo ha sido estudiada desde la lingüística (Alcaraz y Soto, 2016) el análisis crítico del discurso (Bañón, 2002;Fajardo y Soriano, 2016;Van Dijk, 2016) y, desde el enfoque que interesa en este estudio: la teoría del framing (Gemi, Ulasiuk y Triandafyllidou, 2013;Figenschou, Beyer y Thorbjørnsrud, 2015;Igartúa, et al, 2007;Lecheler, Bos y Vliegenthart, 2015;Bruno, 2016).…”

“…Para Figenschou y Thorbjørnsrud (2015: 796), este tipo de encuadres pueden ofrecer nuevas perspectivas sobre la migración, ya que «contando historias de individuos migrantes, los periodistas proporcionan una visión de las vidas y destinos de las personas que, de lo contrario, quedarían ocultas» 1 . Otros encuadres sobre la inmigración, como la incursión o la entrada a la fuerza, que involucra la amenaza de que el extranjero ingrese a «nuestro» espacio simbólico y físico; el encuentro cultural y religioso, que a menudo representa otra amenaza de perder identidad y tradiciones (Bruno, 2016) o el encuadre de las leyes migratorias (Estrada, Ebert y Halla Lore, 2016) son otras dimensiones relevantes en la cobertura informativa de los flujos migratorios.…”
