This volume identifies empirical sites and methodological frames for approaching the construction of migration as a public problem. Starting from the premise that transnationalism becomes structural in setting the public agenda, the authors explore topics and arguments on migration in media and political discourses, as well as the ways migrants and non-migrants recontextualize these discourses in the process of making sense of migration, as a matter of citizenship and policy action.
This book addresses academics, researchers and students in the fields of communication, discourse studies and social sciences, who are interested in theoretical and methodological frameworks with a wide applicability to the study of migration in public discourse and in insightful case studies on Romanian intra-EU migration, highly relevant for the current media and political developments in the European Union.
