This book examines the 'European refugee crisis', offering an
in-depth comparative analysis of how public attitudes towards
refugees and humanitarian dispositions are shaped by political news
coverage. An international team of authors address the role of the
media in contesting solidarity towards refugees from a variety of
disciplinary perspectives. Focusing on the public sphere, the book
follows the assumption that solidarity is a social value, political
concept and legal principle that is discursively constructed in
public contentions. The analysis refers systematically and
comparatively to eight European countries, namely, Denmark, France,
Germany, Greece, Italy, Poland, Switzerland and the United Kingdom.
Treatment of data is also original in the way it deals with
variations of public spheres by combining a news media
claims-making analysis with a social media reception analysis. In
particular, the book highlights the prominent role of the mass
media in shaping national and transnational solidarity, while
exploring the readiness of the mass media to extend thick
conceptions of solidarity to non-members. It proposes a research
design for the comparative analysis of online news reception and
considers the innovative potential of this method in relation to
established public opinion research. The book is of particular
interest for scholars who are interested in the fields of European
solidarity, migration and refugees, contentious politics, while
providing an approach that talks to scholars of journalism and
political communication studies, as well as digital journalism and
online news reception. The Open Access version of this book,
