Koronavirüs Salgınında Göçmenlere Yönelik Medya Söylemi: Türk ve Çek Yazılı Çevrimiçi Medya Karşılaştırması
Media Discourse on Migrants during the Covid-19 Outbreak: Comparison of Turkish and Czech Written Online Media

Summary/Abstract: The article presents the results of analysis focused on discourses related to the health of migrants amidst the Coronavirus outbreak comparing Turkish online media with Czech online media (including selected on-line daily newspapers). The aim of the research is to provide a sociological understanding of the differences and similarities between the two countries with differing immigration levels, and the size of their territories and populations by exploring the ways how migrants and their health have been referred to and by what discourses they were represented by in Turkish and Czech electronic (online) media. Therefore, the text does not deal directly with the analysis of health policies regarding migrants but with discourses surrounding, producing, and dialectically being formed by and forming the current events. The author argues that, at a high level of generalization, it is feasible to analytically distinguish several media discourses in Turkish and Czech written electronic media.
