Through a focus on media and political discourses both before and
after the UK 2016 EU Referendum, this volume provides a set of
comprehensive, empirically based analyses of Brexit as a social and
political crisis. The book explores a variety of context-dependent,
ideologically driven, social, political, and economic imaginaries
that have been attached to the idea/concept of Brexit in the UK and
internationally. The volume's wider contribution has three
dimensions. First, it provides evidence of how the Brexit
referendum debate and its immediate reactions were discursively
framed and made sense of by a variety of social and political
actors and through different media. Second, the contributors show
how such discourses were reflexive of the wider path-dependent
historical and political processes which have been instrumental in
pre-defining the key pathways along which Brexit has been
articulated. Third, the book identifies key patterns of national
and international framing in order to discover the key, recurrent
discursive trajectories in the ongoing process of Brexit -
including after UK's formal departure from the EU in January 2020 -
while putting forward an agenda for its further, in depth and
systematic analysis in, in particular, politics and the media. The
chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue
of Critical Discourse Studies.
