The contributions gathered in the following part present a combination of theoretical and empirical approaches to representations of migrants (as individuals or groups) and migration (as a wider social phenomenon) in the media and in text types related to the media. As such, the following contributions explore similarities and differences between the nationally specific and transnational representations at the times of accelerated sociopolitical change. The latter, as we have seen, has very often resulted with ardent anti-immigration debates which have become prevalent across the public spheres in most of the European countries. Fuelled by the public fears of globalization and insecurity, those debates cut across the traditional political divisions (left and right), both mainstream (national and regional) and minority media as well as both classic media (press, broadcast media) and new media genres.
