Title: | The Cultural Construction of Migrant Women in the Italian Press | Authors: | Giorgi, Alberta | Keywords: | Migration; Women; Press analysis | Issue Date: | 2012 | Publisher: | Centro de Estudos Sociais | Serial title, monograph or event: | e-cadernos CES | Issue: | 16 | Place of publication or event: | Coimbra | Abstract: | This contribution focuses on the migrant women’s portraits that emerge in the Italian press. This discursive arena is dealt with by paying attention to what is taken for granted in the discourses about migrant women and their reproductive rights and behaviours. The analysis is based on a dataset of 634 newspapers articles, published between June 2005 and July 2012, and include both partisan, non-partisan, and religious press. It highlights the culturalization of migrant women, mainly portrayed as victims, and points to the high risk of xenophobic manipulation and political instrumentalization of migrant women’s rights. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/10316/36132 | ISSN: | 1647-0737 | DOI: | 10.4000/eces.1026 10.4000/eces.1026 |
