This book presents the main findings of an empirical exploration of
media discourses on social representations of "otherness" in seven
European countries. It focuses on the analysis of press discourses
produced over a fifteen-year period (2000-2015) on three
contemporary figures of otherness that challenge the identity of
European societies, question the attitudes towards diversity, and
pose significant challenges for policy-makers: immigration, Islam,
and LGBT. The book provides a comprehensive and articulate map of
how national media addresses such themes from both synchronic and
diachronic perspectives, revealing patterns of continuity and
discontinuity across time and space. Lastly, it discusses these
patterns in the light of their cultural meanings and their
influence on social and political collective behaviours.
