Semi-public Discourses and Ethnic Minorities in the EU: A Comparative Analysis of Discursive Representation of Roma
Original language description
The talk deals with the discursive representation of the Roma minority in the media and the reflection of this representation in semi-public discourses in the EU. Adopting the perspective of critical discourse analysis, the presentation compares and contrasts data from online discussion forums affiliated to mainstream news sites in Great Britain and the Czech Republic. The news articles and the discussions, which reflect on the issue of Roma immigration to the UK, are analysed with respect to the discursive representation of out-groups and the rhetorical topoi utilized by the participants in the discussions. On the basis of the data, it appears that the Roma minority is subject to two different anti-other discourses: in the UK, the influx of immigrantsis perceived as a failure of EU policies, while in the original countries, the emigration of this group into the UK seems to predominantly confirm pre-existing anti-Roma sentiments.
