Asylum Seekers in Australian News Media

Meer over het boek

Focusing on the interaction between the public and media representations of asylum seekers, this book presents a case study based on interviews with 24 Western Australians. It employs Critical Discourse Analysis within a cultural studies framework to explore participants' views on asylum seekers, Australia's policies, and media portrayals. The findings contribute to wider interdisciplinary discussions, making it a valuable resource for students and scholars in migration studies, political communication, sociology, and media studies.
