Undocumented immigration across the Mediterranean and the
US-Mexican border is one of the most contested transatlantic public
and political issues, raising fundamental questions about national
identity, security and multiculturalism-all in the glare of news
media themselves undergoing dramatic transformations. This
interdisciplinary, international volume fills a major gap in
political science and communication literature on the role of news
media in public debates over immigration by providing unique
insider's perspectives on journalistic practices and bringing them
into dialogue with scholars and immigrant rights practitioners.
After providing original comparative research by established and
emerging international affairs and media scholars as well as
grounded reflections by UN and IOM practitioners, the book presents
candid, in-depth assessments by nine leading European and North
American journalists covering immigration from the frontlines,
ranging from the Guardian's Southern Europe editor to the
immigration reporter for the Arizona Republic. Their comparative
reflections on the professional, institutional and technological
constraints shaping news stories offer unprecedented insight into
the challenges and opportunities for 21st century journalism to
affect public discourse and policymaking about issues critical to
the future of the transatlantic space, making the book relevant
across a wide range of scholarship on the media's impact on public
affairs.
