VI Coloquio Internacional de Estudios Latinoamericanos de Olomouc (CIELO-6). Inmigración, política y medios de comunicación: perspectiva discursiva
Due to the rise of the radical and populist right wing in the US and in Europe and due to pressures of globalization, immigration has become an important electoral and political topic. The immigrant, often metaphorically built as a problem or threat, has become the unwitting star of the political and cultural struggles for redefinition of national identities and liberal values such as tolerance, religious freedom, freedom of expression, or the political landscape itself, traditionally organized along the left/right axis.
